Strasburg...
« on: October 11, 2017, 09:01:30 am »
...going to pass on pitching the elimination game today because he's not feeling well? 

Is it just me, or is he being a monumental pussy?
The rules of distinction were thrown out with the baseball cap.  It does not lend itself to protocol.  It is found today on youth in homes, classrooms, even in fine restaurants.  Regardless of its other consequences, this is a breach against civility.  A civilized man should avoid this mania.

And I somewhat understand the previous babying.  But this is why you did all of that...so that he can PITCH THIS GAME!  Unless there's something I'm missing, this is mindboggling.

He's pitched pretty damn well. 7 innings, 0 runs, 3 hits, 2 walks, 12 K.  106 pitches so far.
