First they’ll need to admit they’re in Sacramento. They seem unable to do that.

#immaculategrid x #baseballWent for max B&W photos today. Cy Youngs are Mets (certainly couldn’t be Reds).
Maybe I should have used Cubs?
Arrieta, Fergie, and Sutter?Anyway, enjoy your Saturday!

Yes, I understand that red baseball cap might mean you are a loyal sports fan or simply enjoy crimson clothing, but I cannot risk being approached by a violent fascist.Hmmmm. As a Cincinnati Reds fan, I may need to look into some variant designs. Does a white cap with red bill set off the same alarms?
The team literally changed their name to “Redlegs” from 1953-1958 because of McCarthyism. “Reds” were dirty commies!

#immaculategrid x #baseballWow. I really like this grid despite the hated Silver Slugger.
Reds nonsense includes Youngblood, Morris, and Owings, who could have been a mediocre two-way player. But Vander Meer isn’t nonsense, he’s terrific! Back-to-back No-Hitters!
Maxwell was my dad’s favorite.
Lopat was Ted Williams’ LEAST favorite, “That f’ing Lopat.” A 5’10” lefty with no fastball.
-
Fernando Rodney count: 12 (3 day streak) ..@seaks Now that’s awesome! I’d love to see someone try and do a Senior League again, like the failed 1990-ish attempt that Fergie Jenkins & Bill Lee were in.
But failing that, ex-MLBers beer-league softball, with a waistline minimum measurement, would work too.

#immaculategrid x #baseballNice grid today, despite the 200 Hits row. Or maybe because of it, since I got to pair Washington Senator Hall of Famers Sam Rice and Goose Goslin. Sadly no room for their CF Nemo Leibold.
Hamilton, Belinda, and Bichette were Reds and I think this is the first time I’ve used Belinda. Nice!
Shoutout to Aramis Ramirez, Bert Blylevin, and Lloyd’s brother Paul.

Always fascinated by books depicting #neurodiversity before we understood it as we do now.The recurring character of Mr. Goby—the detective Poirot occasionally uses for overseas data gathering—always struck me as atypical. He never makes eye contact when speaking to a person.

Big Bobby H !@seaks I have literally no memory of Robert Andino. Love your 1B row, especially Hamelin!

#immaculategrid x #baseballIt’s a grey and rainy day in Tallahassee and I’m feeling lazy.
Started with Rookie of the Year category and realized immediately I had no interest in using what Hercule Poirot called “the little grey cells.” Maybe if I’d dug around I’d have remembered Huston Street or Al Bumbry, but honestly not feeling it today.
But Dave Revering was my first thought?
Cheers!

#immaculategrid x #baseballNot my most inspired. I went randomly around the grid. Couldn’t think of another Rafael to use. Using Ken Forsch made me realize I’d missed the Niekro brothers.
Minimal Reds nonsense today, just Fred Norman and Landestoy maybe.
Shoutouts to Greg Maddux, Dennis Martinez, Nolan Ryan, Warren Spahn, and Don Sutton.

Octopussy?Damn! I just remembered the time in “Diamonds are Forever” when Blofeld snuck out of the hotel in drag. (“Look what the cat dragged in.”)
