Fosse talked about his encounter with Rose during A's broadcasts. He worked for the A's until his cancer diagnosis and subsequent death a couple of years ago.  He is beloved here. 

I don't know how Rose for women to sleep with him. He was not attractive and I am sure he had no game. 

Ray Fosse is much loved in Cleveland, too.  One of the few bright lights in some very dismal years.

A's fans were still able to make their fury at the Astros known when the teams played in Oakland last night. They may not be physically allowed in the stadium, so they did the next best thing:

I read that Houck said he was "bummed" that he would missing a start. Hmmm, if only there was something he could have done to make sure he could play in every park.

I remember many years ago, on The Tomorrow Show, Tom Snyder had on a bunch of baseball ex-wives, basically talking about what cheating bastards their husbands were. Pete Rose's ex told of a time when she went on a road trip with him. She almost never went with him when he went on the road, but this time she did. She said she was awakened in the wee hours, to see Pete next to the bed, getting dressed. She asked what he was doing, and half-asleep he said, "I'm going back to my room."

He apparently did this out of habit! In his groggy state, he forgot he was with his wife. She said she knew he probably slept around when he was away from home, but to have it so brutally shoved in her face wasn't fun.

41 years isn't that recent I'll admit.  Fortunately you're not a big fan of Cleveland, Tampa, and Seattle.  HM to Pittsburgh and the Cubs (until 2016), but that means less stress.  At least Baltimore hoisted something within the past half century.

I don't mean to be mean either, but what's different between the Orioles and the Yankees are the standards.  Especially if you ask the sports media.  Not even factoring in New York's accomplishments, the expectation is for them to win more often than they have.  That's why I said what I said.  Then there's Los Angeles.  Probably not as epic in the sport, but when you have one player who, if you cut his worth in half, still tops an entire franchise, people expect more.

I feel bad for your team ebk57 (while happy for KC).  I really do.  However, when it's not even 2025 and you're ready for what's next, that's not a good thing.  The team near me opted to choose failure as the face of the organization over winning with Livvy's not better half in his prime, along with the best ballpark IMO, that's not cool.  And they know it, period.  Otherwise, they wouldn't scapegoat.

All the best for your team & Johannah team.  Tough break on Tuesday for Corbin Burnes for what would've been his first complete game (though not sure if that's a good thing within a loss).  Although one is supposed to feel horrible following the end (as it shows that you care), it's not easy for me to feel super sympathetic.  That's coming from living to see the team near me win fewer games than the opposite 20 years in a row.  Nearly 2 dozen consecutive seasons!  Pretty much 28 out of the past 32 seasons, and just 3 playoff games won since a botched ninth inning that preceded total failure.

Nevertheless, it should be a very good MLB postseason, even if San Diego doesn't close.  Good thing it's a comfortable lead, with a game to spare, and everything at home
