Funny thing. The reprints keep the container. New label, less specific company. I imagine the new bargain candy company has to find some other celebrities for their ad. Won't be able to afford --

11 June, PHI @ BOS, 4-1, loss
I’m too pissed off. TWO OF THE PHILLIES’ FOUR RUNS WERE UNEARNED. Kutter Crawford (still his real name) was having his strongest start in a month and we give runs away on error(s). Bright sides? When we scored one run and didn’t hit for shit and walked once? Yes, Wheeler dealt. He pitched a gem. But we could’ve kept it closer. And I’m becoming convinced that the games we give up unearned runs hit us harder when we’re at the plate. We lose something. Anyway. Bright sides?
Kutter gave up two dingers but those were his only earned runs. The rest were unearned. Has he turned a corner? Let’s hope.
Dave Hamilton had a 2fer.
We beat ourselves against one of the best teams in baseball. We’re going to stop beating ourselves at one point.
We’ll get ‘em tonight.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to pedal steel guitarist Joe Alterio, composer John Antes, Dave Appell, Roscoe Arbuckle, J.S. Bach’s BRANDENBURG CONCERTOS (1721), Joseph Barbera, the 1980 Beatles RARITIES LP, Beethoven’s MISSA SOLEMNIS (1824), Laura Flynn Boyle, Sharon Corr, Don Covay, Fanny Crosby “Queen of Gospel Songwriters,” Klaus Dinger (Kraftwerk), Lawrence Ferlinghetti, Gorgeous George, the 1988 musical GOSPEL AT COLONUS, civil rights activist Dorothy Height, Connie Hines (Mr. Ed), Patterson Hood (Drive By Truckers), Harry Houdini, Yanks Janis, Carol Kaye, Mike Kellie (Spooky Tooth), Krisdayanti, Kelly LeBrock, Pacemaster Mase (De La Soul), Steve McQueen (got that song waiting for you), Malcolm Muggeridge, Nivea, Lee Oskar, Paradox Thought, Joseph Priestley, cellist Hank Roberts, Klavdiya Shulzhenko, Billy Stewart, Dorothy Stratton, Sylvester the Cat, Dougie Thompson (Supertramp), Fred Vail, Boogie Bill Webb, Tommy Wilson, and the great singer-songwriter, producer, and entertainer Nick Lowe. If you collected all the recordings he’s produced, played on, and/or wrote songs for (plus the cover versions), you’d have an amazing, well-rounded record library par excellente. He’s intersected with Johnny Cash, Elvis Costello, Dave Edmunds, and a galaxy of other notables. Seeing him with Rockpile (twice) left an indelible impression on me in terms of stage presence and entertainment value. When his PURE POP FOR NOW PEOPLE LP came out, it became required listening in my social circle. I read that Nick never does live performances of his song “I Love the Sound of Breaking Glass” (allegedly a comeback to a Blondie song). So here’s my take of it, live at the Cellblock (opening for The Badlees). Meanwhile, HB Nick!

‘It was like Tom Hanks in Castaway’ – NBC Boston
Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy said he considers himself lucky to be alive after he found himself adrift on his boat with no power off Nantucket on Monday. “I’m a relatively new boater,” Portnoy said in an interview with NBC10 Boston’s Colton Bradford on Tuesday. “I spent my summer’s hitting dingers, I wasn’t part of a yacht club. I’m a new boat guy — it was my third time out on a…

Ohtani gives Braves a taste of the deep ball
LOS ANGELES - It’s difficult to put a calculated finger on the worth of Major League Baseball megastar Shohei Ohtani. The Los Angeles Dodgers had a pretty strong inkling of what that worth was when they signed Ohtani off the free agency market for a reported $700 million deal. That’s a lot of dough. But so far, the former two-time American League Most Valuable Player is delivering on his end. The dividends have been decisive and have worked out favorably for the Dodgers and their fans. Thanks to the hot bats of Ohtani, Mookie Betts and Max Muncy, the Dodgers have widened their lead over second-place San Diego Padres in the National League West. And Ohtani has his stroke going.
Shohei Ohtani at bat against the Atlanta Braves on May 5, 2024. Ohtani hit two home runs and collected four hits against the Braves in a 5-1 victory for the Dodgers. The Dodgers swept Atlanta in three games. Photo credit: Melinda Meijer/News4usonline As a result, the Dodgers are rolling. Ohtani’s latest impressive offering came against the Atlanta Braves, now in second place in the National League East. A day after blasting a home run against the Braves, Ohtani clapped back at Atlanta for two more dingers in a 5-1 win for the Dodgers. “I just think that we’re playing overall really well. So that’s helping me to have quality at-bats and just feeling good overall,” Ohtani said through his interpreter. Ohtani hit home runs in two of the three home games against the Braves and now has powered 10 home runs on the season. The two home runs he slugged against Atlanta marked the 17th time that Ohtani has had multi-homer games in his career. Dodgers pitcher James Paxton, who pitched six and two-third innings against the Braves and is undefeated on the season (4-0), had nothing but superlatives for Ohtani after the game. “It’s awesome,” Paxton said of Ohtani being part of the Dodgers. “So much power. He’s a great teammate and I’m glad he’s on our side.” Besides going deep in the first and eighth innings, Ohtani collected four hits in his four at-bats. Both of Ohtani’s home runs were to the opposite field. something he says allows him to go after other pitches. “When I feel confident that I can hit in that direction then I know I cover up other pitches really well,” Ohtani remarked.
Los Angeles Dodgers slugger Shohei Ohtani leads the National League in batting with a .364 average and is tied for place in home runs. Ohtani hit three home runs against the Atlanta Braves as the Dodgers swept the National League East team in three games. Photo credit: Melinda Meijer/News4usonline If there was any type of trepidation about Ohtani coming over and successfully adjusting to the pitching coming from National League pitchers after playing his first six seasons in the American League with the Los Angeles Angels, Ohtani has answered the bell. He sits on top of Major League Baseball in hits and is tied for first in home runs. For the season, Ohtani is hitting .364 and has a slugging percentage of .685. From the looks of it, Ohtani has made going from the American League to the National League a smooth transition. After watching Ohtani work his unthinkable wonders with the two home runs he knocked out of the park, Dodgers manager Dave Roberts seemed to have run out of superlatives to describe the Japanese slugger. Ohtani’s most impressive hit was the deep blast he launched against Atlanta reliever A.J. Minter that defied logic in the bottom of the eighth inning. “He just keeps doing things that we haven’t seen before,” Roberts said in his postgame press conference. “Minter…fastball. Middle, middle, and he just took a really good swing and it was 111 , 112 off the bat. That’s deep. People don’t hit the ball out there. Whether you’re right-handed or left-handed, day game or night game. The wind was actually kind of pushing it from left to right. So, he really got into that one. You can just see Shohei’s at-bat quality…he’s using the whole field.” Top Image Caption: Shohei Ohtani at the plate against the Atlanta Braves on May 4, 2024.

21 Aug, BOS @ HOU, 4-1, win
Well, that was nice. No skin-of-the-teeth-trading-the-lead-will-the-bullpen-blow-it-again angst on that one. Nope. There was a bit of concern in the first when the Astros immediately tied the game up with a dinger off Criswell. But team alliteration came through and that was the only run Cooper Criswell, or indeed any of the other Red Sox pitchers, would give up. And they scored runs. Not only did they score runs, they scored runs against Justin Verlander, who is not an easy dude to score runs on. It was just the two, but as Mike Napoli will tell you, you don't need a lot of runs against Verlander, you just need more than his team gets. Anyway, I am happy about that win and that series win and I'm going to look at the bright sides.
Cooper Criswell often seems an alliterative enigma wrapped in a puzzle wrapped in occasionally coming through with an amazing start to help the team. He went four and two thirds giving up one run on four hits and a walk and striking out four.
The six other relievers threw up mostly zeroes, allowing only four hits and one walk in the remaining four and a third innings. Hopefully that helps with the reset they've obviously needed.
Ceddanne Rafaela, putting in a serious case for ROY, was 2-for-4 with 2 RBIs, one of those RBIs against the aforementioned Justin Verlander. The kid is good.
Dave Hamilton hit an insurance dinger in the ninth. I am happy to report it was surplus to requirements.
Masa Yoshida continues in full beast mode. He went two-for-four, scored a run and STOLE A BASE. Bravo Masa.
Tristan Casas had a hit and knocked in a run.
Jarren Duran had a hit and scored a run and stole a base and took a couple of walks.
The young 'uns seemed to have a bit more luck against Verlander than the vets.
We won!
We won the series!
We have a day off!

Dorktown: Sometimes MLB players should only play at a certain time of day
Getty Images
Stark differences in player production based on time of day, as demonstrated by a lot of charts
In 2006, the St. Louis Cardinals played 105 games at night; and when they did, they were terrible at pitching — their 5.14 ERA was dead last in the National League. But in the 56 games they happened to play when the Earth was facing the sun, they were amazing at pitching — their 3.43 ERA was comfortably the very best in all of Major League Baseball:
Also, look at the difference in effect that Missouri daylight had on the Cards and Royals, both of whom had similar night ERAs. The two drunken bookends here:
Of course, this is baseball, so the weirdness of the Cardinals’ stark pitching contrast depending on whether or not the Northern Hemisphere happened to be facing the sun doesn’t end with the regular season. Somehow, despite the league’s very worst nighttime ERA, they snuck past the Astros to snag the NL Central title.
While logic would suggest they’d be dead meat in the playoffs, especially by the time day games go bye-bye after the first round Divisional Series, that was not the case. They squeaked past the Mets in the NLCS, winning the pennant on the strength of a pitching staff that posted a very good ERA of 3.84 across the seven (night!) games.
But that was nothing compared to their gigantic and exceedingly unlikely surge in the World Series vs. Detroit. They soundly beat the Tigers thanks to an ERA of just 2.05 — a mark that in the 15 years leading up to that had only been matched in a World Series by the 2001 Diamondbacks — across the five (night!) games.
Anyway, discovering this development sparked an uncontrollable urge to make a bunch of charts of my favorite production discrepancies, depending on whether the game was played under the sun or the stars. They each fascinated me in their own unique way, given the relationship between, and sliding scale of, sample size vs. level of deviation.
I figured I’d just drop ’em all in here, and apparently no one’s gonna stop me. So in case you like charts, here, have all the donuts charts in the world.
Pitching
Sammy Ellis barely pitched half as many innings during the day as he did at night throughout his career, yet gave up nearly as many earned runs:
The 1976 Astros were awesome at night, terrible during the day:
1959 Bob Anderson, 1976 Rick Reuschel, 2003 Bartolo Colon, 2013 Mike Minor, and 2013 Hiroki Kuroda barely allowed any homers in the part of the day in which they played less, especially in comparison to the part of the day they played more:
Ditto for 1949 Ray Scarborough and 1964 Jackson, only with extra-base hits swapped for homers:
1987 Jim Deshaies, 1996 Wilson Alvarez, 1996 Jamie Moyer, 1998 Charles Nagy, 1999 Woody Williams and 2007 Orlando Hernandez all had their own kinds of weirdly & significantly exceeding their nighttime homer allowed total in the daytime, given the innings difference:
1976 Bart Johnson somehow allowed more daytime earned runs than nighttime earned runs:
1987 Dave Schmidt’s 124 innings were about evenly divided between day and night. His pitching proficiency wasn’t:
If it was daytime in 2018, Dylan Bundy turned batters into 2013 Yuniesky Betancourt; if it was nighttime when they faced him, they were 2003 A-Rod:
Batting
Let’s kick it off with the 1981 White Sox:
1982 Toby Harrah, 1989 Eddie Murray, 1996 Jeff Conine, 1999 Eric Karros, 2008 Jermaine Dye, 2010 Bobby Abreu, and 2018 Kyle Seager all hit more daytime homers than than nighttime homers, despite 2-3 times as many at-bats at night:
Add 2008 Mark Teixeira to that pile, while noting the difference in OPS as well:
Also, here’s 1969 Willie Horton and 1974 Richie Hebner:
1993 Rick Wilkins and 2001 Ron Coomer had similar OPS discrepancies which you can see how that manifested itself in driving in runs:
1988 Randy Ready somehow had more of his hits occur during the day, resulting in a slightly better batting average:
1955 Gus Bell, 1962 Willie Davis, 1967 Lou Brock, 1973 Garry Maddox, 1974 Graig Nettles, 1985 Andre Dawson, 1993 Devon White, and 2008 Jose Guillen hit significantly more homers in one part of the day despite significantly more at-bats in the other:
1966 Brooks Robinson was the same way with doubles:
And 1977 Omar Moreno, only with RBI:
1954 Ted WIlliams, 1979 Larry Parrish, 1980 Terry Crowley, 1984 Lance Parrish, 1984 Tim Raines, 2000 Albert Belle, 2004 Steve Finley, 2010 Vlad Guerrero, 2013 Paul Goldschmidt, 2016 Jean Segura, 2016 Asdrubal Cabrera, and 2017 David Peralta all had stark differences in the rate at which they did stuff, doing unfathomably superior in their bigger sample (or unfathomably inferior in their smaller sample, however you wanna look at it):
Jeremy Giambi was able to maintain an impressive discrepancy across more than 1,700 career plate appearances:
And then there’s Hall of Famer and beloved Cubs legend Ron Santo, who couldn’t have been a more snug fit for that team. During his career, Wrigley Field hadn’t yet even had lights installed, so they played every single home game during the day. That meant they were playing well over 70% of their overall games during the day throughout his career there, when barely anyone else was even playing half their games during the day:
And Ron Santo THRIVED during the day. It was as though the sun’s rays provided the nourishment to unlock his inner baseball Hulk. To perfectly understand why nobody has ever been a more perfect match for his team, look at this 6-year stretch in particular:
Please especially pay proper respect to his 1968 season in which he homered just once in 163 nighttime at-bats. That’s 0.61%, almost but not quite at the 0.63% rate in which pitchers homered in that time. That’s juxtaposed against hitting 25 homers on his 414 daytime at-bats, which is more than 6% and roughly in line with the career home run rate of Willie Mays.
So yeah, it seems pretty serendipitous that a man who during the day could mash dingers like Willie Mays but at night homered at a sub-pitcher rate happened to be a Cubby. If he’d been on any other team, those years in orange not only wouldn’t be far to the left of those in green, they’d actually likely be to the right. And what a shame that would’ve been for Santo’s career.

The Secret To Writing Lyrics
youtube
Lyrics are one of the most important aspects of songwriting: They’re the first thing most people listen to, and they convey your song’s story more clearly than anything else. But they’re really hard, right? Language is so complicated and weird that many of the structural approaches we theorists like to take for chords and stuff just don’t work. Well, fortunately for us, we’re not the only ones asking these sorts of questions, and the answers are out there. We just have to look a little further afield.

16 Aug, BOS @ BAL, 12-10, win
Well, that was fucking wild. But we won. It was a proper rollercoaster, another bullpen night but one with a far better result than some of the previous bullpen nights. We couldn't breathe until Kenley J got the final out, but when we could breathe, we breathed with a smile. Not just because we won after a ridiculous game that went back and forth and back and forth and back and forth but because we beat the Orioles, which has proven so difficult to do, and slugged the shit out of them when their best starter was on the mound. Yes, we gave up a lot of runs, but we scored more, so that's sort of ok. Yes, I am deeply sad that Dom Smith's been DfAd because he was such a stalwart whilst Casas was injured, but I am very happy Casas is back. Anyway. That game was ridiculous. I'm glad we won it. Let's look at the bright sides.
Masa Yoshida is in his zone. He was 3-for-4 with 4 RBIs, a three run dinger, and his swing looking just great.
Raffy was 2-for-4 with a two-run dinger and the most ridiculous bloop RBI double I've ever seen.
Dave Hamilton looked good, going 2-for-4 with a two-run dinger against former Sox closer and mythical sea monster Craig Kimbrel.
Jarren Duran went back-to-back after Hamilton against Kimbrel with a dinger. He was 3-for-5 and contributed to the team. I am conflicted about making him a bright side considering what happened. I think when he does good baseball things I will mention it but I'm not going to have fun with it anymore. His actions hurt and disappointed a lot of people, including me, and whilst he served his suspension I'm still hesitant to heap praise upon him without further evidence of genuine contrition.
Kenley Jansen struck out two and allowed zero hits, giving up zero walks in the bottom of the ninth, sealing the win and allowing Red Sox fans the opportunity to breathe again. Thank you Kenley.
We won!
We beat the Orioles! In Baltimore!
Let's win again and then win again so that we can win the series!
