If the game is called none of the stats count.

Little early in the year for Buehrle hating isn't it?

 

Agreed, I mean geez we all know what the guy is capable of doing. It's not like Ozzie threw him out there as the opening day starter just to continue his streak.

I feel the same exact way.

I want him to be cy young etc.

 

But its sorda childish for me to feel this way, it is only 1 start outta the 30+ and its not like he did Terrible either. But heh, im in the same boat as you.

 

Go sox.

i dont care what his stats look like, if a player cared more about his stats than winning i wouldnt want him, i just want to win this one, everyone expects the sox to win because we are the reigning champs

If that was directed at me, I say that I wasn't hating at all. If it wasn't, then I concur! :D

6.75 to be exact

 

How the hell is ERA calculated? o_________________________O

number of earned runs divided by innings pitched

(ER/IP)*9

Buehrle: (3/4)*9=6.75

 

So basically.... Its how many runs you give up per inning expanded over a full game (9 innings)

Runs per 9 innings. Say you give up 3 runs in 6 innings. That's 1 run every 2 innings = 4.50 ERA.

what channel would this game be on if re-scheduled? Espn and espn 2 has a full schedule. Hawk and dj are off. They cant just not televise opening day right?

QUOTE(3E8 @ Apr 2, 2006 -> 07:53 PM)
Dude, aren't you a triple-major?  ~5-6 hours sleep should excite you.

 

Yup, might even get 7 tonight if the game ends quickly.

What if you give up runs without making any outs? Like that guy on the Royals a few years ago?

QUOTE(SSH2005 @ Apr 2, 2006 -> 09:34 PM)
Yeah, it's supposed to restart at 10:30 p.m. CT.

f*** that. I need to go to bed soon. Just cancel the damn game and have Garland (could Contreras pitch tomorrow?) go tomorrow.

Then your ERA is 0 I believe. :huh

Then its called INF or in other terms - Infinite

I think he struggled b/c of that long half inning. he wasnt sharp to begin with either and then to sit around in those conditions for all that time this, early into the season might have played into his outing.

 

rather that be the case than being taken out like CC. hopefully he is ok..

Technically your ERA is infinity (well, non-existant since you cant devide by zero) , but it's listed as 99.99

Actually, your ERA is infinity in that case.

If that was the case, Arnie Munoz wouldn't have had a 16 etc. ERA in his start against the expo's that one year back.

QUOTE(daa84 @ Apr 2, 2006 -> 08:56 PM)

You are correct. THanks for the correction. It's been a long time since I took a math class. I mean, it's infinity because if you pitched 9 innings, you would have given up infinite runs because you gave up runs without getting an out. But if you cant get an out, you cant picth 9 innings. So, i just comfused myself. Mathematically it's undefined

Edited by Athomeboy_2000

is the tarp coming off? i thought ESPN recently said the game would continue.

This is turning out to be a pretty s***ty opening night.

It's great that we are getting to use this game thread to discuss ERA calculations. Great.

When the game continues, do you like our chances with McCarthy vs. ??

What are the odds of the Sox winning the game?
