    the jays broadcast had burnett hitting 98-100 on the arod at bat. i don't think he was throwing that hard, but he froze arod on that 3rd strike.

    looking forward to watching kennedy pitch again. only saw him for an inning or two last week against kc and he looked decent.

    Did you see Damon take a $20 from a fan in the stands in exchange for a ball? Then he ran over and gave the $20 to a kid. That was cool.

    burnett is still throwing gas in the 8th.

    Why take Kennedy out? I guess Joe thinks 7 wins in a row is enough.

    I have a baseball question that I really don't feel merits it's own thread, so I'll ask it here, where the smartest baseball fans hang. If you hit a sac fly, does it count against your OBP? I know it does not count against your batting average so I can't see how it would count against an on base %. Does it?

    it does because the formula for on-base percentage is the following:

    divide a player's total hits, walks, and hit by pitch by the total of at-bats, walks, hit by pitch, and sacrifice flies.

    example let's say derek jeter in a four-game series has 10 hits, two walks and one hit by pitch in 25 at-bats, one sac fly

    that would read 13 into 29



    and 13 into 29 comes out an OBP of .448

    i think anything that constitutes a plate appearance will count and since sac flies, walks and being hit by pitches fall into that category, that's why they're included in the formula.

    I just found the formula online and it's:

    (Hits + Walks + Hit by Pitch) /
    (At Bats + Walks + Hit by Pitch + Sacrifice Flies)


    Now I'm no math major, but doesn't having HBP on the top and bottom line cancel each other out?

    i would think so, but i'm really not sure. i'll ask next time i'm at a yankee game.

    Nice blast by Jeter in the 1st. Good to see him with a big hit. He's been slumping and you know that knee is not in good shape.


    I just read Britton being compared to Jared Lorenzen. It reminded me of a nickname I heard for Lorenzen the other day: "Pillsbury Throw Boy"


    Sounds like Torre plans on using a 6 man rotation for the rest of the season with Wang and Pettitte on regular rest. That means we get to see more Ian Kennedy.
