Back home to the relatively friendly confines of Chase Field tonight - we're only 21-25 at home, compared to a woeful 13-33 on the road - for a series against the Mets. It's kinda sad when my first thought for the day is "Must find a Millagraph for tonight's defeat." Yes, I'm going to keep posting them until the team wins a freakin' game, which they haven't done in over a week now - it was the Saturday before the All-Star break, I think. And the Tankapalooza standings will continue until a the team produces a meaningful winning streak. And, no, "one" and "two" do not count.
Let's hope for better pitching, at least. While writing up the NL West for the SB Nation power rankings, I found that the 26 runs we conceded over the series in San Diego appears to be the most the Padres have ever scored in a three-game series at Petco. We've been outscored 84-52 in the 13 games since Gibson took over, so it's clear where the blame lies. Our ERA is now 5.40, worst in the league by more than one-third of a run. Does anyone know why we fired the manager, fired the GM...and Mel Stottlemyre still has a job?
Will be dotting in and out. I do have to write the recap, but that doesn't mean I have to like it.

Wow
6 runs and no homers. Don’t see that often with these current D’backs, it seems.

Twice this season
There have been tacos achieved without a home-run – July 8 vs. Florida, we got ten, and eight against Toronto on May 22nd.

Whoops!
It’s like Edwin’s no-hitter. No one even thought to email text, or tweet me until way too late. It’s still mainly my fault for not checking the schedule.
Quit drooling, vote for me.
I did what kishi did
and set up google calendar to email me a reminder. :)

White Sox
got their name in 1904.
Red Sox got their name in 1908. Anything else you want to be wrong about today?
Quit drooling, vote for me.
the red sox
had earlier teams called the red stockings, and the white sox were called the white stockings in 1901. it was rightfully ours.
Actually
Cincinnati had earlier teams called the Red Stockings…
And the Boston Red Stockings became the Braves.
So long, ol' Muppet arms.
He's like your kinder gentler
doppleganger.
"I gave them my heart and they gave me a horrible bullpen."
Um no
The name Red Sox, chosen by owner John I. Taylor after the 1907 season, refers to the red hose in the team uniform beginning 1908. Sox had been previously adopted for the Chicago White Sox by newspapers needing a headline-friendly form of Stockings, as “Stockings Win!” in large type would not fit on a page.
If you really want to try to push that line, then the Red Sox name actually belongs to the Atlanta Braves, since the Boston Braves were original the Red Stockings, who got their name from the Cincinnati Red Stockings, the first professional team.
So again, want to be wrong some more?
Quit drooling, vote for me.
dude, please
i’m a sox fan, everything is ours. that’s just how it goes. all your articles lied. it was ours first!
hope the guys
saved some hits and runs for the rest of the home stand
