June 23, 200520 yr QUOTE(Benchwarmerjim @ Jun 23, 2005 -> 06:12 PM) Juggernaut, while Silva does not get a lot of stikeouts, he does not walk a lot of batters either. He gives up a lot of hits, but also induces a lot of double plays None of their pitchers walk many people; their BB/9 stats are ridiculously low compared to other staffs. So I agree that low K numbers don't really tell the story (especially considering what Silva did today).
June 23, 200520 yr QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jun 23, 2005 -> 05:15 PM) Why? Because if it were 162, and you subtracted 81 for 1st place wins and subtracted 81 for 2nd place losses you have a tie not the 1st place team clinching. 162-81-81=0 meaning the 1st place team clinched but that's not the case.

Gotcha, never thought of it that way.
