There is no such thing as 'a slow roller past the outstretched glove.'
A slow roller, by definition, is going to be a ball that the fielder can make a play on, unless he is woefully overweight or out of position, such as on a lefty shift. Now, you might get a slow roller that goes underneath the glove, but a slow roller isn't going to get 'past' anybody. /rant |

Not sure how to classify this. With runners on 1st/3rd and nobody out, Manny Ramirez hit into a double play in the bottom of the 10th. Game said Furcal came home on the play, which should have ended it, but Ethier came to the plate with Furcal still on third.
Don't know if that's a bug - the run didn't score when it should have - or a PBP error, where it said the runner came home when he really didn't. |

I've checked the previous posts and I didn't see these mentioned:
1) Hit on a line, up the middle Haines lunges, but it's just byond his glove 2) Looped to center a two base hit for Holden (Holden is on first, not second) |

#2 looks like the object that says Blooped to center... a two-out base hit for ()

I entered a search for both items and got nothing. That's why I thought it might be hard-coded. |

"two base" doesn't appear in the database. I had to search "base hit for" and skim through for a while. It won't search out a contraction, and obviously names are tokens so you'd have to guess which token the name would be. If you enter "just beyond" you see 2 matching objects, "just beyond his" would bring up only the one, and beyond his brings up 3.

I don't know if this has been corrected yet, but in the transaction reports, when a player is "unretired", it is reported as retires from retirement. I would think the correct description would be "Returns from Retirement" or maybe the more commonly used "Comes out of Retirement" or "Comes back from Retirement" or something similar.

That sneaky little bracket thingy!
I killed him... hopefully he wasn't in there reproducing before we caught him.

I always just thought that that was being cheeky.

Not sure if this has been mentioned, from the PBP:
From the stretch... Bruney deals... cut on and missed! (nl]Strike three! Bruney gets Upton to end this game... For the record, I had my OF playing deep because I didn't want to give up a double. I don't know if the OF depth could have something to do with the (nl] there. |
