Gil Must Go: sure glad this wasn’t NBC’s Game of the Week

What a great matchup between Gaylord Perry and Don Cardwell.   Perry always seems like he cheats, not sure why, but for him….that’s a complete game 10 inning loss.

Did Shamsky start?  Yes.  Huzzah!

I would have liked to have seen this one, but I guess I can’t kill NBC for showing us Cubs-Braves on Game of the Week as it’s they thought it would be a preview of these dopey “National League Championship” playoff games coming up.  But then the Braves collapsed   I won’t be watching unless my Giants hold on and win “the western division.”   Baseball sucks now.  Theytotaly ruined it with 4 playoff teams.

The Mets are 4 games back.  Don’t get greedy, we got Meaningful Games in August for the first time since 1954.
