In a real statistical oddity, the Pirates have played 19 games (most in MLB) this year against teams currently above .500, and are in last place with an overall winning record.

@lunchmade I have a challenge for you, Todd. Post a picture of a card or pack that I *don’t* love. So far you’re failing miserably.
English
Brandon Lowe is the first Pirates player in MLB history with a box score line of 1-for-1 with 4 walks and at least 3 runs scored.
It’s been done a few dozens times by guys other teams.
English
Kyle Schwarber is the 13th Phillie in history to strike out 5 times in a game. Odds are pretty good he'll eventually become the first guy to do it twice.
Chart, of course, from @baseball_ref

1984 Topps hanging out with 1984 O-Pee-Chee
Tim Raines autographs
This card design, uniform and subject is absolutely lava. It’s one of my all-time favorites.

@obxleatherman @BravesStats Nine career complete games is out of reach for >95% of today’s pitchers
English
There are only two active pitchers under 30 with multiple shutouts in their career: Hunter Greene and Logan Webb both have two.
We might not see another pitcher with seven career SHUTOUTS, let alone no-hitters.

Nolan Ryan pitching in his 7th no hitter. Is this the most unbreakable record in baseball?

No wrong answers 😁
What is the greatest card ever made in your opinion?
I’ll go first.
(Honorable Mention ‘71 Reggie)
English
@obxleatherman I think Indians also had a long losing streak to start that season? Maybe 7 or 9 games?
English
Fun fact: the 1988 Braves also lost 10 in a row to begin the season, but because the Orioles were so bad, no one seems to remember.
FunBaseballFacts@FunBaseballFact
Today in 1988: the #Orioles lost their 21st straight game to start the season. It set an #MLB record for the worst start to a season, and an American League record for consecutive losses at any time in a season. They ended the year with a 54-107 record, 34.5 games out of first.
English
Murakami is the 16th player in MLB history to strike out 45+ times in his first 30 career MLB games. The other 15 are a VERY mixed bag.

Munetaka Murakami now has 45 strikeouts in 30 games, which for a full 162 games equates to 743 strikeouts in a season. Ok, it’s actually 243, but that’s still a lot.

Don Mattingly being the Phillies' manager is weird enough.
Reporting to his own son as GM is next-level weird.
English
If you want to win a World Series, avoid Don Mattingly.

Brayan Bello’s horrific outing tonight is the 11th time in Red Sox history a single pitcher has given up 5+ homers in a game.

Guess what day it is @HighHeatStats

@BravesStats @obxleatherman @CChapro832 @notgaetti @orwellian My guesses were Sosa and Foxx—Foxx came close but no cigar.
English
@obxleatherman @CChapro832 @notgaetti @orwellian I did almost type Griffey because I know he had those 56/56 seasons. Did he get the RBI?
English
Babe Ruth had at least 45 HR and 135 RBI in six straight seasons from 1926-1931. Only two other players have reached these marks in four straight seasons. Who are they?

Wow I am so wrong. Garrett Hampson did it just last year and lots of others have too.
English
Robinson Cano had a year in which he played 9+ games for 3 different teams, and hit below .200 for each team.
I have to believe he’s the only non-pitcher to do that.
English
@LuisBauza @TheBeatwriter I think this is correct. In English, the “-“ definitely means “for” or “of”. In Spanish, I gather it means “to”.
So in English, it’s “hits in 7 of 9” and in Spanish it’s “9 converted to 7”.
English
@TheBeatwriter Creo que es algo más de vocabulario como hablamos nosotros, decimos el bateador tuvo 9 turnos dio 7 hits se fue de 9-7. Pero en inglés la expresión sería “7 for 9” y se usa el “-“ para suplantar el “for”. Creo yo 😂
Español
Siempre he tenido una curiosidad que me da pena decir, pues no sé si es una bobería, pero me genera inquietud que nadie tenga la misma duda: ¿Quién decidió que en español para referirnos alguien dio 7 hits en 9 turnos se diga de 9-7 y en inglés al revés de 7-9?, ¿Por qué es así?
