Strasburg shutout and 2 HRs from Harper. Nats all the way baby!

[birdman42]

Harper's on a 324-HR pace. Can he keep it up?

Yep, and Maxwell of the Astros is on a 324 TRIPLE pace. I hear he's been injecting his ankles with steroids.

You will both need to recalculate your projections a little to take into account the inevitable 4-5 days of September rest your guys will get as their teams enter the home stretch at 135-0 respectively.

It also means that the Nationals can drop Strasburg off the roster a bit earlier this year!!!

Mariners also on a 162-0 pace...

Go Cubs!

Ya know, I've never missed a first pitch (my dad claims to have had me sitting with him for every opening day, so I'm going with that...)- even when I've been at work or school. My brother and I would come home sick on those days, which was okayed by my parents, and I'll just happen to have something I "need to do" which requires me to leave work early. Yesterday, however, when I opened up MLB.tv, every single game except for the Cubs game worked. It wouldn't load at all. SO, after the garbage can flew a few times, I decided to just leave work a couple hours early. It was well worth it!

I was reading through the MLB website, trying to figure out what a subscription really meant, especially 'blackout'. Does that mean that ALL home games are blacked out, or only the ones that are blacked out from television? And what circumstances cause a game to be blacked out? We've had plenty of super-low attendance home games shown on t.v., so I don't get it.

Also, it looks like you have to pay extra for all post-season games, right?

And, you get audio for ALL games, even if the t.v. part is blacked out?

Any help would be appreciated - I don't have television, so relying on watching games on my Mac, and listening to the blacked-out ones on my iPhone.
