AT's world series team was not very good. The team . . .
. . . hit .240 with 21 HR's, averaged 3.5 runs per game and committed 62 errors. That error total is terrible considering opponents struck out an astounding 788 times in 68 games. That's 11.5 of the required 21 outs (7 innings) accounted for in the circle. In other words the defense playing behind AT only had to get 9 outs. In general, batting averages were lower then (it was truly the era of the pitcher) but I wonder if that VT was the one of the worst offensive teams to ever play in OKC?

"freak accident" was actually a "moment of frustration"

Not surprised about Royalty. There's a reason most elite P's are 5'10" . .

Nothing says we would outperform them BECAUSE of their injuries.
