Tim McCarver Strikes Again

I'm starting to feel like I could make a career out of just re-telling Tim McCarver stories. I had another fantastic one all lined up for you today - but Bill Simmons beat me to it with his running diary of the Red Sox/Indians game last night. You can read the diary here - the story in question is covered in the entry from 10:05.

Somehow McCarver was baffled by the "startling fact" that lead-off homeruns lead to more multi-run innings than lead-off walks. This one wasn't quite as good as the pitch/thumb discussion from Monday night - but it was close.

The Fantasy Football stuff will be up later in the afternoon.
