Around SBN: The Gift Of The 2003 Tigers

Perhaps a strange request

Does anyone know of that website where you see where pitches were, in the strike zone, and if they were called strikes, balls, swings, whatever?  Cause I really want to look back and see if John Maine actually was getting squeezed and Vasquez was getting some calls.  Just curious.

Also, I want to see just how tiny Angel's was tonight.  Looked like it couldn't have been any bigger than a postage stamp, but the stats never lie, and I don't have them.

I bet a lot of those outside the zone are swinging strikes.

I thought the blue

were swings. Cause those are all reds?

Blue is in play.

Actually

If someone could delete my first post, that’d be great. Linked to brooksbaseball without thinking. Here’s the pic:

there we go

a hell of a lot of green triangles in the zone, and red squares outside of it.

by DevonEdwards on May 8, 2009 6:31 PM EDT up reply actions  

Yeah

but it’s not awful. There are a few weird ones to be sure. The pitch f/x data isn’t perfect, remember.

by gogomets on May 8, 2009 10:26 PM EDT up reply actions  

meh

what I see is a lot of green (triangles and squares) inside the zone on the right, and a lot of red (triangles and squares) outside the zone on the left. there are a couple of bad outliers and I can see why we might have had the impression that there was some inconsistency, but I don’t know if there’s really enough here to establish a convincing pattern.

Judging by the comments to Matt Callan’s ode to 1986 Mets: A Year To Remember from a few weeks back, the video has a devoted Mets fan following. Despite being too young to remember anything about that season, it has a special place in my fandom as well. It was part of a two video rotation (Ghostbusters being the other) which ran almost daily on my television for a few years in the early 90s. And it remained a once-in-awhile watch through high school and college. 

Unsurprisingly, the physical tape deteriorated over time, and the screen jumps and sound skips made for a less than optimal viewing experience. With sale of the video discontinued, my brother converted it to DVD and gave it to me for Christmas in 2010. See the picture above for the box and DVD. He even created a scene selection function which can be accessed from the main menu. "Get Metsmerized!" plays on loop on the menu screen. It is my favorite Christmas gift ever and is still nice to throw on for a viewing.

"How'd we do it? Mirrors!"
I was flipping through some of my parents' photo albums this afternoon in search of one particular shot of the sign my older sister made for Mets Banner Day back in the late eighties. Though I didn't find that one — I'll post it when I eventually track it down, and I can assure you that it's Keith-themed — but I did stumble upon this wonderful photo of my younger sister's stuffed animal menagerie spread out in front of a glorious rainbow-festooned Mets pennant, also from the late eighties.

She works for the HRC now and was particularly delighted to be reminded of this photo.

Now that banner day is back, hopefully this years will look a little like this. I know it's not great, but i don't pretend to be a professional. embiggen!
