I can't believe Miguel Cairo is still playing.

You call that playing?

I can't believe Miguel Cairo is still on an MLB 25 man roster.

He had a brutal last start - 9 R in 1.2 IP but only 2 of those were earned.

In other news from Attorney General and one time Yankee utility infielder Alberto Gonzalez was DFAd by Texas today.

Austin jackson became the first Tiger since 1977 to triple and hit an inside the park homerun in the same game.

Ron LeFlore?

I believe that's Evan J's domain to post obscure occurrences.

I don't even know how I would look that up because box scores don't specify when a home run was inside the park.
There's no space in EvanJ.

What are you, one of those EvanJelicals?

Zach McAllister on Saturday evening limited the Red Sox to three hits and two runs over eight innings, striking out four and walking none.

Home run logs do.http://www.baseball-reference.com/pl...=lefloro01&t=b Leflour did hit an inside of the park HR in 1977 but did not triple in the same game.

Steve Kemp, as benefactor pointed out, did both in the same game http://www.baseball-reference.com/bo...97709040.shtml.

I'm actually Jewish. I made up the name Evan Jones many years ago (it isn't my real name, but it's attached to one of my e-mail addresses so it's what Jayson Stark of ESPN calls me). I don't know why I chose not to put a space.

Home run logs do.http://www.baseball-reference.com/pl...=lefloro01&t=b Leflour did hit an inside of the park HR in 1977 but did not triple in the same game.

So that could check if a specific player has hit a triple and inside-the-park home run in the same game, but how could it find the most recent player to do that if you had no idea? The Play Index doesn't have inside-the-park home runs as an item to choose.

That's shocking considering Kemp was such a slow base runner. Between Kemp, Rusty Staub and Jason Thompson, that '77 Tigers team had to be one of the slowest of all time when you remove Ron Leflore from the equation.

The inside-the-park HR was hit to A's center fielder Jim Tyrone, apparently taking a day off from Long Day's Journey Into Night.

The left side of the Tigers' infield was Aurelio Rodriguez and Tom Veryzer. Better fielders than Bobby Cox and Tom Tresh, but even worse hitters. (Rodriguez, of course, had one of the best 3B gloves ever, and was the first player ever with all 5 vowels in his first name.)

Montero, 2-4 with a pair of homers against Weaver and the Angels.

[Jax Teller]

Montero's post all star break #s

93ABs, .344BA, .404OBP, .452SLG, .855OPS, 9BBs to 12Ks

Also 6 games at C - 3 of them in the first week after the All-Star break - 18 games at DH. Seems like Seattle's made the decision on his position.

2 hr off of the best righthander in the league. not bad.

He homered off Justin Verlander?

[awy]

no. jered weaver

[Jax Teller]

His Home/Away splits are crazy. Away from SafeCo his OPS is 200 points higher, Slugging over 100 points higher, OBP almost 100 points higher, Batting over 100 points higher...

Verlander has better ERA+ and SO/BB ratio in near 40 more innings.

Ironically, Weaver also has crazy home/away splits. .439 OPS and 1.23 ERA at home vs a .643 OPS away and a 3.11 ERA.
