Well the Padres had caught up to them on paper.  Can't be having that.

Hopefully a ton of their games get picked up by national TV, so they are PM on MLB Network, because every game the dodgers and Padres play will be must see

Field of Dreams game set for Aug. 12, 2021 (mlb.com)
If I get a ticket I will distribute a clipboard through the stands encouraging MLB to enter Shoeless Joe into the Hall of Fame. MLB is trying to profit off Shoeless Joe in this game, while blocking him due to a "lifetime" suspension from the game. His lifetime ended in the 1950s. We need to get his admission into the Hall of Fame.

1919 WS
Joe Jackson
.375 batting average
.394 OBP
.564 SLG (3 doubles and a HR)
no errors
He added to the likelihood the White Sox would win the WS by 12.5% (the highest by any hitter on either team)
The 5 other players leading CHI in at-bats all made it less likely they'd win it, by 35.5% cumulatively
.
But he took their money, so he's penalized forever....

Pete Rose had (has?) a radical gambling problem.
