The joy (?) of only hitting a handful of games every year is that I have either the ticket stub or my scorebook record for most of them. Finally got around to plugging them all into the newly-retooled Sports Passport this morning:
Thoughts:
* The best hitting performance I've seen was a Jim Thome 2-HR game at Comiskey in 2009; second was Mike Piazza's 2-HR game in 4/9/01.
* The best pitching performance I've seen was El Sid in the Dave Palmer/Strawberry fight game in 1986; second was Julio Teheran's one-hitter this past June.
* I've seen 23 of 30 MLB teams: missing Detroit, Cleveland, the Angels, Oakland, Minnesota, Tampa, & Texas.
* The minor league database only goes back to 2012, which is too bad, because I have a TON of Rochester Red Wings games from the 1997 and 1998 seasons that I'd put in there.
* I also need to go back through my notes and figure out what basketball games I've been to since I got to Stony Brook, because they've got our conference in there.
