February 25, 200422 yr He sure talks the talk, says all the right things and now they say he batted over .400 in the winter leagues?
February 25, 200422 yr OT: You know, you're going to have to change your name again. Willie is wearing #1 this season Which is odd seeing as 12 is available again and he has the damn thing tattooed on him, but that Willie for ya....

Maybe it'll help him play more like One Dog.
February 25, 200422 yr I think he said on the Score that he only played in 25 games.. so he got 11, 12 hits. I only caught a bit of the conversation as my stupid ass Cub fan boss was tossing more work on my desk and trying to talk to me about someone saying Bonds is on the juice.. Anyone else hear anything about the last part??
February 25, 200422 yr How does 11 or 12 hits in 25 games equal out to over .400? Did he only get one at bat a game?
February 25, 200422 yr How does 11 or 12 hits in 25 games equal out to over .400? Did he only get one at bat a game? Based on past winter ball games I have attended, where players usually bat twice, is what I based it on. 50 hits / 11 = .454 And I didn't use a calculator so if I'm off a hit, save the lesson.
February 25, 200422 yr Author I think he said on the Score that he only played in 25 games.. so he got 11, 12 hits. Did he not say 11-12 hits in 25 ABATS, not games? That's what I think I heard.

February 26, 200422 yr You probably thought 50/11 which is 4.54...11/50 is .220. Exactly. Thank you White Sox 04 Plus I believe the original statement was "he only played in 25 games so he got 11,12 hits." If he received 2 ABs, as proposed, a game that would give him 50 ABs. 12/50 = .240 11/50 = .220 Far from hitting over .400. He would have needed 20 or more hits to hit .400 and above in 50 ABs. Oopsie daisy.
February 26, 200422 yr I think '1' is a cool number. But yeah, name change for me. You are all changed up.
February 26, 200422 yr The only numbers I can find for Willie in Puerto Rico is three games played for Mayaguez where he played in three games and went 2-10. I remember JoshPR saying Willie came down there, and left within a week. Unless he came back for the playoffs, I have no idea where those numbers are coming from. I looked up the stats for all the Puerto Rican League teams.

North followed it up with a smirking "how did you do?" cuz he thought judging from his tone of voice Willie wouldn't want to talk about it. Willie said he got 11 or 12 hits in 25 at bats. Sounded weird to me, hence the thread title in the question form in order to confirm it. Too bad none of you funooks know either.
February 26, 200422 yr Yes.. thanks 04.. I was running out the door from work so I answered half assed. And thanks SSI for being the jagbag you are always so good at being..
February 26, 200422 yr Yes.. thanks 04.. I was running out the door from work so I answered half assed. And thanks SSI for being the jagbag you are always so good at being.. Honest mistake. We've all made it before in damned Math classes. (I did it in Bio a few days ago figuring out my grade and thought I had a 940%)
February 26, 200422 yr Honest mistake. We've all made it before in damned Math classes. (I did it in Bio a few days ago figuring out my grade and thought I had a 940%) I got in the car, realized my mistake, and said.."oh geez.. watch someone make some stupid ass issue out of it...."
February 26, 200422 yr I got in the car, realized my mistake, and said.."oh geez.. watch someone make some stupid ass issue out of it...." :knob
