General Sports Talk

Baseball just seems to be falling behind the other sports…. but…. they have a new star that ‘should’ draw attention.

Yanks starting pitcher Cam Schlittler pitched his 24th start giving up one or fewer earned runs. Out of 32 starts.

The all time record is 25 by Sandy Koufax.
Second this year is 16 by Dylan Cease.

He’s making $800k this year.

The Yankees may have a bit of a dilemma with Schlitter. He pitches much better on the road than at the Cathedral in the Bronx. He could win the Cy Young but not start Game One of the playoffs. Rough problem to have.

The D-Backs run a 50-50 raffle each game. In some mid-week games, the pool is only a few thousand, with the winner taking home $5,000 or less. Occasionally, the pool hits $500,000 for a big game. Saturday night, the Yankees were in town, and it was a celebration of the D-Backs' World Series from 2001. The perfect storm of events created a pool that exceeded $700,000, and a fan walked away with over $350,000 before taxes.

For those who don't understand verb tenses, the incident above happened last night and is not ongoing.
