As Meatloaf sang:

These are headed your way.
Still at 1331?

O’Hare Sunset.

Like a Tequila Sunrise, only instead of Tequila you use MalΓΆrt.

Matched on Akiyama, Dessens, and Graves. And both had Concepcion.

Cheers!

Matched on Doggie even though I wasn’t really focused on Reds. Dihigo & Torriente! Nice!

Matched on Wily Mo and both had Dennys Reyes. Matt Belisle is a nice pick.

Loved Edinson Volquez in 2008; first pitcher the Reds had in years that felt like you were watching an ace. (No offense to Arroyo and Harang, but they felt more like workhorses than thoroughbreds.)

First thought was that Cito Gaston was already elsewhere.

Second thought was that it’s not enough hair for Oscar Gamble.

Don’t remember this card at all; must still be on my want list.

Local lunch place does peanut butter and banana, generously drizzled with honey, andβ€”brace yourselfβ€”adds sprouts.

β€œWhy?” you ask. It creates a nice texture and somehow keeps the peanut butter from sticking to the roof of your mouth. Weirdly works.

Obvious matches on Encarnacion and Moustakas. Knew you’d have Bench there. Willy Tavares pick is a nice one.

Did you know that if you buy my book on Amazon, Jeff Bezos makes 5 times as much as I do on each copy sold? Sharing some behind-the-scenes book math on why buying directly from presses is best for EVERYONE (except Bezos) in my newsletter today! aubreyhirsch.substack.com/p/book-math

Matched on Dunn & Sanders, despite me only using 3 Reds.

Love the George Foster pick, but love my Alou Brothers row even more. Legit annoyed I didn’t think of Matt Harvey. Nice!

Seem to remember one of the Brennamans on a radio call in extras at home bitching about Adam Dunn coming to the plate, and how Dunn strikes out too much, and he was the last guy you want up.

Dunn, of course, hit a walk-off HR. Just checked; Dunn hit 4 different extra-inning walk-off HRs for Cincy!

Foster-Votto-Satchell. 3 matches today and almost a 4th (I was tempted to use Concepcion but went with Hod Eller).

Knew you’d have Turkey on there!

Matched on Billy Hamilton & Buddy Bell. I’m kind of pleased with myself for using 2 active players today: Tyler Mahle and Emilio Pagan.

Matches:
Cesar CedeΓ±o yesterday.
Tris Speaker today.

Still amazes me how we almost always have a match.

Baseball Reference has β€œDizzy Dean” and β€œPaul Dean.”

Every single time I see it, I mutter β€œIt’s β€˜Daffy Dean’ dammit.”
