If you're a fan of Bill Webb's work and haven't been to the Museum of the Moving Image in Astoria since 2010, you'll want to visit soon. Seriously cool as Mets thing there, reported on here.

Gary and Keith discuss Stephen Strasburg’s major league debut from the night before and the statistics that perfectly complement their conversation magically materialize.

Keith said that Strasburg's curveball was even better than Doc's, and comparable to Darryl Kile's, or young Bert Blyleven's.

Michael Milken was in the booth the following inning. Not as entertaining as Jerry Seinfeld's visit, almost two weeks later, but for a good cause.

The AT&T Trivia question from 6/10/10, game #1: Who were the only three pitchers to win the Major League triple crown (W, K, ERA) since 1950?

Doc 1985, Guidry 1978, Gibson 1968.

Nope. We're talkin' major league triple crown, not league triple crown. To win this quiz, you've gotta play it SNY style, getting all three pitchers in one post. I'll post the answers in about 5 minutes 'cause I gotta go.

Re: The Webb of Baseball

Koufax (3X) 1963, 1965 and 1966; Gooden 1985 and Santana 2006. Johan was that day's starter, probably not coincidentally, given how the quiz questions are often tied in to the game.
