The Mrs. Met reboot is off to a seamlined start.

Alternately, teams that had to play well at the end of the season just to make the playoffs are continuing to play well.

It worked!

Sounds like you’re ready to talk about why the Avalanche need to put you out there for the 3rd period right about now.

What / how much have you been drinking tonight?

Dwight Howard cries softly to himself while wearing a Burger King birthday crown.

Sports are awesome and as a Western Mass resident, I’m rooting for him.

Samer killed it with that line.

Yeah, he and his team just got completely shut down by Minnesota Duluth in the final. Not the most compelling case that he’s just going to breeze into a series against the #1 seed in the West.

As noted in the linked article, it looks like he’s taking the place of an injured guy. I think it’s more surprising the NHL lets guys who haven’t played a minute all season make the postseason roster.

I thought the Avs would give them a series, but after watching last night I don’t think my analysis holds up.

Includes some walks, a couple sacrifice bunts and at least one sacrifice fly:

Now seeing that Bernazard owns the MLB record “since 1974" which is a different thing. He didn’t debut in the majors until 1979, not sure exactly when the record was set. His 1984 was pretty putrid.

There’s only one Tony Bernazard that I’m aware of and 1974 was his first year in the minors. Assuming the record that keeps getting referenced was set in the minor leagues (he played Rookie and A ball, according to BBRef, with a .284 OBP in about 380 PAs)?

Who’s on ya? Hezonja!

I was just basing it on the 4-game series with the Rangers as noted in the blog - 6 Hits (5 HRs) and 6 BBs.

5 HRs and 5 runs scored. Got on base (at least) 7 other times and none of the other puds on his team could bring him home. Look at this shit!
