I'm against "teh unwritten rules". Pretty much all stupid nonsense.
But if your manager says "take", you...fucking...take, no matter what his motivation for the sign is.
The Cubs in the last 4 years have been a great example of what happens when players stop listening to the manager and coaches.

Yep, but you have to say one thing for him, he has never sold short on his over inflated ego. He "invented" the Game after all.

Corey Kluber just threw a no-no for the Yankees!
Years with the most no-hitters:

6: 1908, 1915, 1917, 1969, 2010, 2021 (as of 5/19/21)
5: 1962, 1968, 1973, 2014
This year is shaping up to be nuts.

And the strike zone in Kluber's was as wide as a cow's ass.
Reds and San Fran fans, I found it here.

So far, so good.

Seattle is making it painful to enjoy games this year
Giants annihilated the Reds today to sweep the series. Now we get the real rivalry this weekend. Giants/Dodgers should be fun. I think I will be happy if the Giants take a game. If they take two I will be very happy, and if they sweep (Unlikely), that's playing with house money.
Yep, The whole series sucked out fuckin' LOUD.
Those were the days, the old N.L. West when the Central Division was only a wet dream.
Walt Alston, Little tommy LaSorda and Roger Craig.
It never made any sense to me, the Cubs and Cards were farther to the west but the Reds and Braves were put into the Western division. Some $ must have...
If someone can explain plz do so.
Hey, hey Ron Cey... The Penguin is on 3rd base today, those were some damned good Dodger teams.

I remember when the Atlanta Braves played in the NL West. That 93 season was magical, even though now that I'm older, I forgot why the Braves played in the West.
Musta' been partially revenge/because they moved from a bier town Milwaukee down South. Originally the Bees/Braves were in Boston. The Babe hit his last 3 homers w/ them as a player/coach until he figured out they were playing him for a sucker, then he retired..
And the Reds got stuck in the "middle", I guess.

The Cubs and Cardinals threatened to sue and not support expansion if they were separated from the east coast teams, MLB should have told them to kiss off.

And the Cubs threatened it again in 1992?

Do you--or anyone- have a source I can read about the East/West NL/AL splits of 1969? I have always found this perplexing and would enjoy reading a definitive source of that time. WGN wasn't a super-station in 1968-69 and the Trib didn't own the Cubs then IIRC.
@Timby ? you are the chi-town expert...help please.
Congrats, Marlins...you managed to trot out uniforms EVEN UGLIER! 
Dude, they look like they should be delivering ice cream. What the actual fuck?
