It's been a productive day so far. Writing a game thread while hung over, laundry all folded and put away, grocery shopping. And the chicken is being marinated for a potential chicken dinnah!

Just like when a stage actor/actress always calls a certain play 'The Scottish Play'. You don't call it by it's real name or all sorts of bad things happen :-)

As a theater tech who was a part of a production of Macbeth,it was weeks until I realized everyone in theater (much like baseball) is a superstitious crazy person. I didn't even know it was a thing until I got chewed out. Then I went out of my way to say Macbeth Macbeth Macbeth!!!! Oh hey look. It doesn't matter if a couch surfer calls a no hitter in the 6th. Stupid

I'm sure Duffey is now thanking you for causing that hanging curve.

He may have given up a HR, but then Duffey struck out the next three guys.... this is the Tyler Duffey from last season.

...and then the show closed, and you were looking for work.

Masterful. That last strikeout... Keep the video of that for future generations. 

 

1. 83mph change-up, lower edge.

2. 90mph fastball, inside edge.

3. Classic Duffey curve, shows just a hint of strike, then ducks down and left. Swinging strike 3. 

 

This is what I have always thought Tyler Duffey could be. No idea if he can be this good very often, but this is why I think he can be an excellent MLB pitcher.

Well, Dick, if Molitor actually told Duffey was done for the day, wouldn't there already be someone warming up??

 

Edit:  well what the hell is it?  Who's warming up in the bullpen??

I thought I saw Kintzler down there throwing.
