I’ve only watched the bottom of the half so far, 2 whole at bats.

I’ve heard these two bits of wisdom from the broadcasters …

Buck Martinez: “Both teams like to score first, and support their starting pitchers.”

Me: ” … as oppossed to teams that like their opponent to score first”.

Ron Darling: “It just goes to show you how important each pitch is, especially in the first inning.”

Me: “Sure, the first inning is the most important inning, because you don’t have as much time to make up a deficit as you would if you fell behind in the 6th.”

These are two long-time major leagues players and broadcasters. Didn’t Darling play at Yale?
