Why do SFs hurt your OBP but Sac bunts aren’t counted? Neither is a PA. How long has it been that way?

Because a player who hits a sac fly are trying to hit the ball.
A player who hits a sac bunt is normally intending to give up an out.

A Ranger fan of my told me that Sori didn’t draw his first walk one year until the end of April. Since he had a SF, his OBP was lower than his BA. Not something you see every day…

She didnt know if her parents were even there to watch her, had no idea when her next holiday would be, had no idea what she wanted to do after the olympics and then her coach or whatever stepped in and said she had way more gymnastics to do before thinking aobut that. rediculous

it's the worst
I’ve been to, and I’ve seen a lot-19, many of them the cookie-cutter, bland ones

Never been to Shea
The worst I’ve been to, by FAR, is the Kingdome.

Why not the Shark in this situation?

He usually only pitches Shark for 2 innings....
Kerry unavailable, Marmol closing…
He needs to get through the 6th. Pitcher up next inning…

New phrase for Howry's appearances....
Howry s&*t…
Let my ashes blow in a beautiful snow from the prevailing 30 mile an hour southwest wind...
When my last remains go flying over the left field wall, I'll bid the bleacher bums adieu,
And I will come to my final resting place, out on Waveland Avenue. --Steve Goodman
