You taking notes, FS? :p
I understand your point. It's just right now, my lead isn't even big enough to protect. All things equal, I just thought the Woody matchup gave me the best chance at points. Of course, this decision was made before the 14-0 explosion of offense last night from the Team Formerly Known as the Pirates. :rolleyes:
By the way, I never knew that about Joe D. If he would have just eked out a hit in that 57th game, that would probably be the most unbreakable record in all of baseball. That and Cy Young's win (and loss) total.
