4/2/13: Rockies Hit Early, Often to Down Brewers

Tuesday, April 2, 2013 Miller Park

Final score: Rockies 10, Brewers 4 MVP: CF Dexter Fowler, Rockies: 3-5, 1 HR, 1 double, 4 RBI

The Rockies bounced back strong from the opening day extra-inning heartbreaking loss, hitting Marco Estrada early and often en route to a 10-4 victory. The offense was powered by two 3-run home runs - one by Todd Helton to cap off a 4-run first inning, and the second a 2-out shot by Dexter Fowler in the 5th off reliever Tom Gorzelanny to put some more distance between the teams. Jorge de la Rosa pitched in a quality start, with 6 innings of 1-run ball, to complement the offense. Estrada, who didn't look right from the get go, was ultimately lifted in the 4th inning, and the Brewers are concerned he may miss some time with an upper arm injury.

COL 10/16/0 – WP: Jorge de la Rosa (1-0) MIL 4/9/0 – LP: Marco Estrada (0-1)

Col 1st: Dexter Fowler smacks a lead off double into the right/center field gap; Carlos González brings Fowler home with a 1-out single to center; Michael Cuddyer doubles with 2 outs to put runners on 2nd and 3rd; Todd Helton lifts an errant offering over the right field fence for a 3-run home run; Chris Nelson triples with a ball to the left field fence; Yorvit Torrealba grounds to short to end the inning. 4-0 COL Col 2nd: Josh Rutledge, González, and Troy Tulowitzki hit back-to-back-to-back 2-out singles to center, with Rutledge racing home on Tulo's hit. 5-0 COL Col 3rd: Helton draws a lead off walk; Nelson strikes out; Torrealba doubles to center; Jorge de la Rosa tries to lay down a sacrifice bunt, but 1st baseman Álex González throws home instead, snagging Helton; Fowler singles to right, plating Torrealba. 6-0 COL Mil 3rd: Rickie Weeks draws a 1-out walk, steals second, and scores on a single to right by Ryan Braun. 6-1 COL Col 5th: Torrealbe and de la Rosa draw 2-out walks, and Fowler follows with a 3-run moonshot to right. 9-1 COL Mil 8th: Weeks smacks a lead off double to left; Braun drops a single into center and then steals 2nd; Jonathan Lucroy grounds out to short, with Weeks rushing home. 9-2 COL Col 9th: Pinch-hitter Eric Young Jr. singles to center; Torrealba smashes a single off the wall in left, allowing Young to reach 3rd; Jonathan Herrera, who entered earlier as a pinch-hitter/defensive substitution, singles to center to bring home a run. 10-2 COL Mil 9th: Carlos Gómez leads off with a single to right; after a strikeout, Gómez steals second and scores on a triple by defensive replacement Yuniesky Betancourt, who then scores on a single by Nori Aoki; Aoki then steals 2nd and Weeks is walked to load the bases, but Braun flies to right and Aramis Ramírez grounds to short to end the game. COL 10-4 (F)

Injuries: SP Marco Estrada, MIL - out for 30 games

(Strat note: Offensive lineups intact, which will hopefully be true for most of the games from here on out - injuries aside - and not require daily mention. Another offensive explosion of sorts, though slightly more spread out; this time, though, both teams were getting on base, Milwaukee just wasn't able to get the rolls to bring folks home. Also, both 3-run home runs, and 2 additional runs, came with 2 outs, so the Rockies really just got lucky with the needed rolls at the most opportune times.)

Colorado 1-1; Milwaukee 1-1 Next game in replay: SF (Bumgarner, 0-0) @ LAD (Ryu, 0-0)

PASSING/MLB: Johnny Jeter

Johnny Jeter passed away on January 16th. of this year. This flew under the radar of the national media and even my brother and sister MLB nerds over at Baseball Fever didn’t find out until July of the passing of Mr. Jeter who passed of undisclosed causes in his native Louisiana where he had attended Grambling University. Baseball was the thread in the fabric of this 12 year-olds summer of…

YouTube link (The audio of the podcast, no video, for the convenience of some listeners) Strat-O-Matic Baseball might be one of the biggest games you’ve never heard of, and three-time champion William "Bill" Meinhardt joins to share his passion for playing it. How long has the game been around, and how many people play it? What’s the one mechanic Bill wishes was in this beloved game? Is there a link between Strat-O-Matic Baseball and Fantasy (Rotisserie) Baseball? Is there a link between Strat-O-Matic and tabletop roleplaying games? At its heart, what is the game of baseball? And for the really hard-hitting question, does Bill do the Chicken Dance??

What's your favourite 2 player board game?

Oh, this is such a fun question! Thanks for asking!

I'm a little embarrassed that the first answer that springs to mind shows off a very specific aspect of my nerdiness: Strat-O-Matic Baseball.

For anyone who is not familiar with it, the game simulates baseball by creating cards for all the players, and then you roll dice (including a d20 in some situations), and consult charts and move pieces and around and...when I was teaching it to one of my best friends he asked, "Is this like a baseball version of D&D?" and my answer was "Kind of..."

So, yeah it is incredibly dorky, but as a combination baseball nerd and board game nerd I love it!

(And to tie into "Bob's Burgers" because that's my main thing here, I will note that in one of my fics I mention Rudy owning a copy of the game. Because, yeah, he would.)

Thanks so much for the ask!

I am soooo nourished by the great outpouring of well-deserved love and praise for Tim McCarver. I dug up this 1999 piece I wrote about him for the Times (complete with easy-to-read cut and paste).....

Let's clear up a few things right off the bat:

This is not about money.

This is not about my relationship with Bobby Valentine.

This is not about my tendency to be fair, yet critical.

That said, it's all over between me and the Mets. It was nice. Sixteen years, eight in fair weather. But like Odysseus at sea, I was drawn by a voice, and I sail in the direction of that voice.

In other words, I go with Tim McCarver.

Do you have any idea what this means? This means I have to watch 42 Yankee games on Fox this season. That's the deal. Forty-two New York Yankee games.

Did I mention I was a Red Sox fan? Are you beginning to get the point? Having to watch 42 Yankee games in one year is the Red Sox fan's equivalent of the Witness Protection Program: it's no way to live, and if you're lucky, no one will find you. But these are the sacrifices you make.

They are not the same sacrifices as making time for those less fortunate or telling people with a straight face that Jose Offerman is the missing piece of the puzzle, but they are sacrifices nonetheless. I go where I'm called and I go where I'm wanted. And Tim McCarver wants me to care about the game as much as he does.

I became a Met fan because of Tim McCarver, and now I move on for the same reason. I'll try to leave with class and without rancor, as he did, but it's darn tough. Forty-two Yankee games and I'm not even counting however many additional times Fox carries them on the Saturday afternoon national game. Or the playoffs. But that's my problem. My sacrifice. My growth. My willingness to accept change and all that other healthy hooey.

It is not my intention to go on and on in praise of McCarver. Why, that is the most common criticism viewers have of his analysis: he tends to go on and on about a specific point, endlessly belaboring the same piece of minutiae over and over again to where it is redundant and repetitious and repetitive of the thing that he said moments ago. Like that.

Here's a bulletin: baseball is pieces of minutiae that need belaboring. If that annoys you, you're not paying attention. And people who don't pay attention need to be told things over and over again. Good. Now, what was I just talking about?

Before I heard McCarver, I thought I knew everything about watching baseball. I was doing the double-switch in Strat-O-Matic years before Whitey Herzog thought he invented it. 

Unteachable, all-prescient and wrapped in a shroud of second-guessing, I would sit in the sanctity of my underwear and spew insight faster and keener and certainly more literately than any former player turned broadcaster/cheerleader/stooge of management. And that was just fine, because one of the joys of baseball is the comfort of seeing a familiar face in the booth, and the smugness of feeling superior to that guy. Come on, admit it. You loved Phil Rizzuto because he was always there, and because you knew who was on deck, a better recipe for red sauce and a quicker route to the bridge.

When the Red Sox were coughing up leads throughout the 1970's, their television broadcast team was Dick Stockton and Ken (Hawk) Harrelson. Stockton handled the play-by-play, Harrelson did your rooting for you. My favorite Hawk shill moment came during a game in 1976, when he said, ''You know, I came out to the ball park a little early today, and let me tell you, Doug Griffin put on a show in batting practice.''

(I loved it, and I loved it a dozen years later when Harrelson, now in the Yankee booth, made the same observation, only this time, the guy ''putting on a show'' in batting practice was Wayne Tolleson.)

That's what I grew up with. And that was fine. I didn't question it. Tim McCarver did, and he was willing to involve me.

Who knew there were two schools of thought about guarding the line in the late innings?

Who knew there was one school? Who knew the open-mouth/closed-mouth signal between shortstop and second for covering the bag? I played infield and remember just yelling, ''You take it!'' Who knew that brown patch in right field at Shea Stadium was because Darryl Strawberry didn't adjust to different hitters?

 And who knew that Ralph Kiner could be funny on purpose?

A few years ago, McCarver and Kiner were filling in the pauses during some faceless July night in the National League. There was a shot of a vendor, and McCarver started talking about when he sold peanuts in the stands at Memphis Chicks games as a boy for ''half a cent a bag.'' Kiner rejoined with memories of selling peanuts at polo matches in Palm Springs to celebrities like Will Rogers. The following is the rest of their exchange:

McCarver: ''Will Rogers. Never met a man he didn't like.''

Kiner: ''Well, he never met Fran Healy.''

The next sound you heard was a guy laughing as he fumbled for his cough button.

That's the sound I'm following. To 42 Yankee games. Feel free to pity me.

On each turn, players draw a card and compare key stats (e.g., Batting Average, Home Runs, or Pitching ERA).

Use stats to simulate an “at-bat” (e.g., a high Batting Average could be a hit, while a lower one might be an out).

Keep track of outs, hits, and runs just like a real baseball game.

Scoring Runs:

Decide what stats count as hits, doubles, triples, or home runs. For example:

Batting Average > .300 = Hit

Home Run stat = Home Run

Track runs on paper or a scoreboard for each inning.

Winning the Game:

At the end of all innings, the team with the most runs wins!

processed some more of my grief over losing Kyle. went on a date today, we went to a coffee place that also serves food and my date brought some board games. one was strat-o-matic and I played the 2017 A's. it's a game of chance, but my A's still completed some Very Athletics feats — Manaea struck out 10 batters, but we lost 3-0 and only got one hit. also, stranded a runner at third.

seeing all those names on those cards and remembering that 2017 team brought back MEMORIES. I caught myself thinking about telling Kyle about this date, and what he'd say about it, and how there's not REALLY anyone in my life right now who would read that first paragraph up there and UNDERSTAND it. so that's sad!!

but the processing part is that I AM seeing this guy, and we have so much in common, and I guess I'm building new neural pathways around baseball a little bit at a time the more I interact with the sport with others who have no connection to Kyle whatsoever.

4/2/13: Rangers Obliterate Astros

Tuesday, April 2, 2013 Minute Maid Park

Final score: Rangers 17, Astros 2 MVP: Rangers offense: 17 runs, 18 hits, 3 HR, 7 BB, 1 HBP; 8 players with hits, 9 players with runs scored

Two nights after barely eking out the 1-0 victory on opening night, the Rangers offense exploded for 17 runs in an absolute shellacking of their in-state, and new division, rivals. The Rangers went off for 17 runs on 18 hits, aided by 7 walks, 1 hit batter, and 2 errors that allowed runs to score the plate, including an 8-run 4th inning, where 13 players came to bat. On the opposite side, the Astros were limited to 3 hits and 2 runs by Yu Darvish, who struck out 10 in the complete game.

TEX 17/18/0 – WP: Yu Darvish (1-0) HOU 2/3/2 – LP: Lucas Harrell (0-1)

Tex 1st: Ian Kinsler hits a lead off home run to left field. 1-0 TEX Tex 3rd: Elvis Andrus lines a 1-out single to center; Adrián Beltré then deposits a 2-out pitch over the wall in left for a 2-run home run. 3-0 TEX Tex 4th: Nelson Cruz singles to right to lead off the inning; AJ Pierzynski hits a grounder to 3rd, which is thrown to snag Cruz at second but the relay is too late to complete a double play; Mitch Moreland smacks a single to right, which Rick Ankiel boots away, letting Pierzynski race home and Moreland to reach third on a 2-base error; Craig Gentry walks; Kinsler walks to load the bases; Andrus smacks a 2-run single to right and, after a strikeout, steals 2nd base; Beltré drops a single into left, plating Kinsler; the Astros make a pitching change; David Murphy hits a slow roller to short and everyone is safe, with another run crossing the plate; Cruz is walked to reload the bases; Pierzynski hits a 2-run single to center; Moreland ropes a RBI double to center; Gentry flies to deep left to end the inning. 11-0 TEX Hou 4th: Carlos Peña drops a 2-out single into right and then advances on a wild pitch; Chris Carter smashes the next pitch over the right field wall for a 2-run home run. 11-2 TEX Tex 6th: Beltré leads off with a single to left; Murphy hits a single to right, with Beltré racing to 3rd; Cruz hits a slow grounder to 2nd and the only play is at first, driving in a run. 12-2 TEX Tex 7th: Gentry leads off with a single to center; Kinsler follows with a 2-run home run to left. 14-2 TEX Tex 9th: Andrus and Berkman receive back-to-back walks to lead off the inning; Beltré singles to right, scoring Andrus; after a pitching change, Murphy hits an awkward roller to the right side of the mound, with the only play being the out at 1st, allowing Berkman to score; Marwin González cleanly fields Cruz's grounder but throws it into the dugout for a 2-base error, scoring Beltré. 17-2 TEX

(Strat note: Offensive lineups intact. That said, holy shit!, what an insane offensive explosion. One of those games where it seemed like every roll of the dice for the Rangers was a hit and every roll for the Astros was a simple out - including the 10 strikeouts. I'm not sure if there's anything to be done, but through 17 games now - 18 if you count the one played but not yet written up - it feels like the offenses are powered up, especially against the bullpens; also, there may be too many injuries. We'll have to see. Also, Rick Ankiel's batting card is a mess, given how bad his season was - it's almost worse than the generic pitcher batting cards. At some point, managerial overstepping may have to occur, if the Astros inexplicably decide to keep starting him [which, of course they will; that's how he got enough at-bats to generate, or not generate, those stats anyways]. And speaking of managerial overstepping, the Astros infield defense is also not good; Marwin González, especially, with a 3e32 at shortstop, is just asking for trouble. Actually, the whole defense is a mess: Carter is 5e12 in left, Wallace is 4e11 at 3rd, Peña is 3e7 at 1st, and even Altuve is 3e10 at second. They finished 51-111 in real life and ... yeah, it checks out. Not sure how long my inner general manager is gonna be able to sit by and watch this mess - and I'm only on game 2!

Funnily enough, the real-life counterpart game was also a blowout, though obviously not to this level: Texas won 7-0, and Darvish was actually even more marvelous, with 14 Ks and having a no-hitter until 1 out in the 9th.)

Texas 2-0; Houston 0-2 Next game in replay: COL (de la Rosa, 0-0) @ MIL (Estrada, 0-0)

A.L. Shuts out N.L. in Strat-O-Matic All-Star Game Simulation

Run-scoring singles by Toronto’s Vladimir Guerrero Jr. in the fourth and Tampa Bay’s Isaac Paredes in the sixth lifted the American League to a 2-0 shutout win over the National in the simulation of the 2024 All-Star Game performed by Strat-O-Matic (@strat-o-matic), the market leader in sports simulation games. The Nationals were limited to three hits by nine different A.L. hurlers.

Guerrero Jr.’s hit  followed a one-out triple by Cleveland’s Jose Ramirez off Chicago’s Shota Imanaga with what proved to be the game-winning RBI. Then two innings later the hosts built a run on a bases-empty, two-out single and stolen base by Cleveland’s David Fry and ensuing hit by Paredes to double the A.L. lead to 2-0.

That’s all the impressive Junior Circuit staff would need, though they totaled just five strikeouts in the game, two by Oakland breakout star Mason Miller. Two errors and a walk loaded the bases with two outs in the ninth, but Texas closer Kirby Yates induced a game-ending popout by Colorado’s Ryan McMahon.

Guerrero Jr. had two of the American League’s eight hits in the simulation.

National League. 0 0 0  0 0 0  0 0 0  -  0  3  0

American League. 0 0 0  1 0 1  0 0    -  2  8  2

WP: Crochet; LP: Imanaga; SV: Yates

HR: none

It's not fantasy in the wizards sense but there's been role play as a baseball team's general manager games since about the same seventies or eighties time period that OD&D originated in.

The biggest brand name I know of is Strat-O-Matic. I think that one even uses a d20 in its resolution system.

I bet somewhere along the way someone managed to kludge together a way to adapt one game's tropes into the other and vice versa.

I think a funny thing to do would be to just have baseball in your fantasy setting. Completely unchanged if you'd like.
