Immaculate Grid

[G-Fafif]

Once in a while in my early morning fog, I jumble categories and thought today, as IG asked for Brewers and All-Stars, it wanted a Brewers All-Star. It did not, yet I mindlessly entered slugging MIL OF Gorman Thomas in the All-Star/3B box. Turns out Thomas played exactly 1 inning as a third baseman (and made 1 error). Rarity score on that accidental pick at one point today registered as 0.0000%.

I think this is the second time I've been surprised that the Pirates have only had seven pitchers with 200 or more strikeouts in a season. I'm going to have to make a point to remember that Oliver Perez is one of them, for next time it comes up. It was the only one I missed today.

[cal sharpie]

Yeah, the Pirates do have few strikeout kings. I had already used Perez for the Outside US one but I did remember Bob Veale from when I was a kid and he would dominate the Mets. 18 total.

MIN/NYM Wally Backman 1
MIN/SD Phil Nevin 0.8
