Pulling the String

"Baseball...is a leisurely game that demands blinding speed, and the only one in which the defense has the ball. It follows the seasons, beginning each year with the fond expectancy of springtime and ending with the hard facts of autumn." - Baseball: An Illustrated History

Name:

In To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee, young Scout Finch learns how to see from Boo Radley's perspective by standing on his front porch. The Radley Porch is my venue to explore perspectives in literature as well as other areas of my life. So come on up the steps, curl up on my virtual porch swing, and relax!

Beat the Streak

I'm sure that with your fantasy teams you boys have your hands full, but if you wanted another fun thing to do, try Beat the Streak on mlb.com. A friend told me about it and I just picked my first two hitters. The way it works:

Pick a hitter every day that you think will hit safely.
Try to beat DiMaggio's record 56-game hitting streak by choosing players that hit safely on the day that you choose them! (that's easy, right? ;)

Rooster says: I bet that's a lot harder than it sounds. I wouldn't pick any of my fantasy players to get a hit on any given day! :(

Melodee says:
Poor Brian, are the Aberdeen Highlanders struggling?
Considering the fact that the best players fail at the plate 7 times out of 10, there's a good deal of "luck" involved in predicting who will get a hit. :)
