How the hell does Tom Seaver have 16 wins? I’d like a little more that 7 and a third out of my starters please. But sure, Tom, go ahead and give up three runs. They wouldn’t score for Koosman but for YOU, sure they will put up a 5 spot.
Terrific is going to wind up scamming a Cy Young, and 50 years from now people won’t realize it was Jerry Koosman who had the better year. Life is unfair.
Also, what is Gil doing bringing in a pitcher to face on batter?
That was AWFUL. We have to see Gil walk to the mound, then McGraw warms up, pitches to one guy, here comes Gil again and then Koonce warms up, and then finally we resume playing baseball. No wonder this game took THREE HOURS and fourteen minutes. Is this what people want out of baseball? Noooooooooo. They should legislate against crazy one batter appearances like that.
Did I mention the Braves are awful? The Mets have their number.
