So somebody on reddit mentioned that many of the games that got sent out this morning were on the list of games in retrosheets database that did not have full play by play.
I’m glad I’m not the only one.
I got up this morning to find the Astros just lost to the Braves 7-0. I thought: “they played the Braves?”, then I thought: “when?”. I scrolled, saw a bunch of other games including Expos games and said “WTF kind of hack is this?”
TOO SOON.

Let me say, the Astros should in no way or means adopt this.
However, I would make an exception if they celebrated by firing an actual damn rocket out of the dugout.
