Tonight Tim Lincecum recorded his 500th career strikeout. He has done this in the fewest amout of games (69) faster than any Giant since 1900.1. The more I learn, the more convinced I am that many players are over-rated due to inflated stats from offensive home parks (and eras)

MLB / NHL symmetry
23 pitchers have recorded 300 wins in their MLB career
23 goalies have recorded 300 wins in their NHL career
Randy Johnson is very likely to ruin this symmetry by becoming the 24th pitcher to win 300.
Nikolai Khabibulin is also sitting on 299. Assuming he returns next year (his contract just expired but he is expected to re-sign), he should restore this symmetry - at least for the next few years.

In 1974, The Oakland A's became the first team in baseball history to win six consecutive post season series.1. The more I learn, the more convinced I am that many players are over-rated due to inflated stats from offensive home parks (and eras)

I don't think I posted it on this site, but this is kinda cool.
My dad was a former minor league player and met or knew a lot o players through SF prep baseball or the SF sandlots or minor league baseball.
I am pretty sure he and Art Schallock knew each other from way back but in 1989 my parents retired to the wine country in Sonoma and their neighbor were the Schallocks (it was a new retirement community).
My dad brought me over to meet Art, who pitched for the Yankees in the 50s. Mr. Schallock brought me to his living room and showed me a framed newspaper headline from a NY paper in 1951
YANKEES SEND DOWN MANTLE TO MAKE ROOM FOR SCHALLOCK1. The more I learn, the more convinced I am that many players are over-rated due to inflated stats from offensive home parks (and eras)
