By the way, we are in a three-way tie with Minnesota and Cleveland for first place at 11–10.

Holy heck, 10 earned runs in 1.2 innings?

Well that’s skewed a lot by his last outing.

By the way, The Pitt's next season is set in November. So I am guessing that it will be Robby's first day back from his nervous breakdown/sabbatical - and he is going to walk into a bunch of unexpected changes and an emergency room that ran very well without him - which will cause an existential crisis for him. I think Thanksgiving, and a Blizzard may be part of the backdrop and the mix of the day will be a bunch of homeless people finding shelter at the hospital and making up reasons to be there (only to find out they have real illnesses), along with a terrible icy road traffic crash and maybe a mass Food Poisoning scare. Robby will not walk in as the Senior Attending right away as they will give him a few weeks to readjust. That means Abbot has moved to Days, Or Al-Hashimi has gotten her wish of two attending - herself and either Dr. Ellis (who will be a regular next season) or Dr. McKay.

Interesting start to the James Franklin era at Virginia Tech.

Tomorrow is Valdez against Crochet with a 7.58 ERA. On the face of it this appears promising. He’s under performing compared to his previous statistics so it’s not impossible he is due for a rebound. Hope that’s his next start.

No, no way. The Pitt is an outstanding show but comparing anything to BB/BCS/Sopranos/The Wire in my book is like comparing a rookie to Babe Ruth, Willie Mays or Sandy Koufax. It's just not fair. I think TV really started to change with one show in 1981 - Hill Street Blues. As far as I can recall that was the first cop show where the cops didn't always get the bad guy and sometimes the cops WERE the bad guys. Maybe intentionally (Cheif Daniels, Sal Benedetto) or screw up with heart in the right placye (J.D.LaRue). Then a couple years later came St. Elsewhere - where the doctors didn't always save the patient (previously the patient ALWAYS got saved). If you were a patient the first season of St. Elsehwere, you needed to update your will. Then TV went to another extreme in the 90s where the bad guys becaume the lead characters and the writers got you to sympathise with them - and that's when TV got really good. To black hat/white hat so much, just a lot of grey, really intense grey. The editing on Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul and the Sopranos was as good, if not better, than any major theatrical film. Face it, Breaking Bad was basically a 60 hour movie.

Cant be bothered with those plays

Durant is out tonight

Playing in front of 8000 people in Toledo is much different than playing in your ML debut in historic Fenway Park in front of 35,000 fans. That really can't be disputed.

Uhhhhh

I wonder if KAT ever goes home and rolls around on a big bed of money while laughing hysterically.

So I guess we could actually “win a game on the road” against TheSawx! Too bad this didn’t happen last night.

I’m glad they didn’t have the attitude for Kevin McGonigle.

I think I could have put it better. The Pitt remains one of my favorite shows of all time. I liked the finale a lot, and I agree that not every season can have a mass casualty event. They did a good job making it feel like the end of a shift (where some characters just disappear when the clock hit 7). It was just going to be a tall task to keep up with Breaking Bad. I thought Breaking Bad got better as the season / series ended. The Pitt stayed very good, but I just don’t think it quite matched BB’s level of television excellence…. For now.

Career save #481. 500 looks promising.

Tigers win! 3-way tie for 1st atop the AL Central, with Minnesota and Cleveland and Detroit all 11-10 on the season.

excellent move even if they did lose

McGonigle wasn't.

By Jove, I think he’s got it! 😃

The park can affect pitching and hitting and even left field defense (because of the wall). It is not relevant to third base defense though.
