#162 The Irrelevant, Pointless, Inconsequential, Insignificant, Meaningless, Unimportant, Immaterial Game Thread

Texas (90-71)
Dunning R
12-6 3.72 ERA

2B Semien R
SS Seager L
DH Garver R
RF Garcia R
1B Lowe L
3B Jung R
C Heim S
CF Taveras S
LF Carter L

Seattle (87-74)
George Kirby R
12-10 3.46 ERA

SS Crawford L
CF Rodriguez R
C Raleigh S
3B Suarez R
RF Kelenic L
1B France R
LF Canzone L
DH Ford L
2B Rojas L

Only thing of any interest is the Win Prediction contest:

Current 87 wins & JK 11 HR
D-Train 87 wins
XpertDBA 88 wins (13 HR)
GL_Storm 88 wins (26 HR)

Unless JK hits 9 HR its a straight shoot out DT v XDBA.

Will be surprised if we get to page 2.

Anyone actually going to watch the game?
What's your crowd prediction?

The fat lady has sung. Elvis has left the building.

I have zero interest in this game.

Funny how they play 162 games, and the entire season comes down to 1 game. 1 inning, even.

One thing these hitters really need to be taught is to stop swinging at pitches out of the strike zone like Raleigh just did to pop up on a 2-0 count on a pitch 6 inches outside. Other teams don't do that against us.

Mariners win! We're still losers, though.

So summary.

* XpertDBA claims the title.
* 8 posts by end of game in GT is lowest of the season, obviously
* I ended on .500 with a dim 5-5 record
* Next game thread 28th March 2024 vs Boston - see you all there, stay-in-touch

The Mariners did accomplish something with this win today. They allowed the Astros to win another division title. :roll:
