The Orioles disabled the right side of their infield, sending Derrek Lee and Brian Roberts to the disabled list.
First baseman Lee has a left oblique strain and was put on the 15-day disabled list, while second baseman Roberts was put on the seven-day list with concussion-like symptoms after a headfirst dive into first base in Monday’s game at Boston.
Neither was hitting very well, so this may turn out to be addition by subtraction.
Yankees finally just got a single! They’ve got plenty of doubles, triples & home runs, but no singles. And there’s a second one.
How many games featured only extra base hits, by either one or both teams?
rbj » Since 1957, I count 763 team games, although a lot of those were low hit games. The most hits in which all were for extra bases was on 8/18/1998, when the Braves knocked out nine doubles.
David>> Thanks. Maybe we should add other parameters, such as at least 1 double, 1 triple and 1 HR.
