Home run oddity
Posted: Tue Nov 19, 2019 1:31 pmRyan Madson, who gave up no home runs in his real-life season, gave up a pitcher's card home run (4-6) to Nap Lajoie in the eighth inning of a game last night. Of the 21 RPs-only who gave up no home runs, he is the only one with pitcher's card homers. Did it matter? The game went into extra innings and I lost. Madson actually has two homer chances against righthanders: 4-3 (1-12) and 4-5 (1-10). This probably is not an accurate portrayal.
