Game 2 - 4/2/2008

Royals 4, Tigers 0

Are you kidding me? I mean, seriously. We all knew Bannister had talent, and we heard all winter about how smart the guy is and how he loves to analyze baseball statistics as much as the geekiest of geeks.

But then to go out and hold the mighty Tigers to 2 hits, no runs, and no walks over 7 innings? Getting four strikeouts along the way???

This is better than any Royals fan could have dreamed of.

I was flying into Philly then driving to Reading, PA today, so I didn't get a chance to watch or hear the game, but reading the box score now is very impressive. It's only 2 games, but something feels special here...

The Bell Curve
Actual Record 2-0
Expected Record 2-0
Runs Scored 9
Runs Allowed 4
Projected Record 162-0
Pythagorean Record 136-26
Pythagorean Winning% 0.835

Let's go get 'em
