This is a pretty hilarious exercise in pushing the limits of a baseball sim.

Dangerous Experiment: A Roster of 25 Adam Dunns | NotGraphs Baseball

Poor Dee P. Gordon, though...

Because Out of the Park isn’t programmed to allow forfeitures, the Gordons were frozen with exactly nine unbroken players left on their roster, and thus there was no one to save Dee P. from his fate. That he even won four games (one a 51-50 nailbiter) is kind of amazing. The lowlight was definitely October 2, when a certainly hollow, cadaverous Gordon threw 944 pitches in a 164-16 loss, in which he somehow played both pitcher and first base. His game score was -813.

Over those final two months, Gordon suffered the following injuries: a torn labrum, a herniated disc, a sore wrist, biceps tendinitis, a forearm strain, two damaged elbow ligaments, two mild hamstring strains, a sore ankle, a sore forearm, acute elbow soreness, a sort thumb, a strained hamstring, a wild calf strain, an intercostal strain, and a tired arm.

The day after the season ended, and roster restrictions were lifted, Out of the Park destroyed the painting in Dee P. Gordon’s attic, and he immediately suffered a back spasms that shelved him for the next 19 months. The insanity and the peeling of his own skin were not included in the diagnosis. The game listed his morale as “unhappy”.

If someone could go over to the MLB board and vote on semi-final 1 to break the tie (there's only a minute left), that's be great.

His reaction is great. I don't know why I laughed so hard at it every time.

Mexico beats Canada 4-3 at the LLWS - I only saw the last half inning, but the home plate umpire's strike zone was very generous.

This reminds me of an old Oriole's player Mark Belanger. In a late 70s / early 80s Orioles yearbook they had short interviews with the players. Mark's dislikes were "Fat people and gay people".

did you happen to see any ab's by the March girl from South Van ... I saw people predicting pregame that she (or the girl from Philly) will be the first girl to hit a homerun at a LLWS

no pressure kids!
