I was going to avoid the game tonight. Promised myself a break. I was planning on a favorite bottle of wine and listen to some Steely Dan. Had it all planned. . .
I'm Tex and I'm a Soxaholic. What's the first step to recovery?
Just like he wronged his team, his management staff, and fans with every manager that's been hired not named Ozzie. Does it really matter why a manger was hired? Ozzie was the only one that didn't fail, and that was for only one season.
Last night was a heartbreaker for me. Martin learned the hard way why wins are a horrible stat for pitchers. But I was thinking about types of losses because I can think this year we'll be getting plenty of practice. I can think of a couple different types.
Good loss. You play hard but get out played by a pitcher that is just throwing lights out. It's a 5-3 type game. Your team put out a good lineup. You scores some runs.
Frustrating. Six run lead in the ninth and can't hold it. A Frankenstein lineup of Ozzie proportions. Lots of runners left on base. Key errors. Fans reach over to grab a ball that might have been an out.
Bad loss. Bad call by an ump. Lucky break to the opposition.
Heartbreaker. See last night.
What am I missing?
Technically they serve as battery banks as compared to something that is actually generating electricity while running. My truck has an actual gas fueled generator plus an inverter. The inverter basically draws from the battery. The generator requires the engine to be running but as long as I have gas, it will generate electricity.
I'm wondering why someone hasn't created a product that will allow the output of these vehicles to easily be connected to a home. There are whole house generators that automatically come in line when power goes out, why not have that attached to an electric vehicle or generator installed vehicle?
Martin currently 0-1 with a 1.8 era for his MLB career.
As they were congratulationing him he should have been saying next time I'm bringing some hitters.
I'm sure Martin doesn't care about getting a win, it's a meaningless stat after all. But it would mean a lot to his mom. Let's score some runs for the guy.
