Somehow I picture quiet baseball analysts more as the murderer than the murder solvers. I bet Dexter pored over box scores and advance stats in his free time away from the police lab, when he wasn’t stabbing.
As for non-contenders, Pittsburgh and Colorado had a wild one. Pittsburgh had a 9-1 lead after the 1st inning. 16-10 going into the 8th inning. Colorado won 17-16!
11 innings normal baseball. 12th inning free runner. If still tied, decide a winner by holding a baseball trivia contest, 3 players per team 1 question each. That way MLB could defile its history and pay tribute to its history at the same time.
