WOW! Thats almost hard to do

 

No doubt. I was at the game, saw the stat (1-9 at the time) and had to do a double-take. It reminded me of living through Anthony Young's record-setting 27 game losing streak. Found this article https://www.amazinavenue.com/2018/7/27/17598026/mets-anthony-young-losing-streak-snapped-history-new-york. Most of it mirrors my memory except the part that he had converted 12 consecutive save opportunities in the middle of the streak - I have no recollection of that whatsoever.

O's got lucky they were cheap and didn't re-sign him

I think its going to hold 25,000 people, what a joke

So is it they figure they can charge a fortune or that not many will be interested?

Who knows with the A's.  I'll correct that number to between 30k-33k according to Google

Still, with downsizing of new baseball stadiums that’s been going on, tickets have got to be up there. I haven’t gone to a game in 20 years, maybe it’s not as bad as I’m thinking.

John Fisher, A's owner is selling the San Jose Earthquakes to help pay for this stadium. He's getting no help from his baseball buddies. I would laugh hard when this ballpark doesn't happen. Fisher is a stain on Jose Canseco's underwear.

They're not even drawing 8500 in Sacramento. The A's are a complete joke.

Padres and Dodgers had a bit of a plunkathon series. Most unintentional, but Ohtani twice, intentionally. But he prevented a repeat of another bench clearing like the one a half inning earlier.

 

…..I rewound both broadcasts to hear the announcers, they talked like he was Moses parting the Red Sea.
