Anyhow, that Guerrero tweet is incredible, hilarious, and downright awesome. You need to print a picture of it and have him sign it.<br /><br />I've spent some time on a few posts this past week researching players I didn't know much about. It's nothing earth-shattering and I'm basically regurgitating baseball-reference stats, but they've gotten less views than my two-minute look what I got! posts. Oh well!

I have also noticed that the posts that take me several days to write get only a few hits and posts that feature cards with girls on them get a lot of hits. My 2013 SEGA Card-Gen posts take a long time to write, and they get even fewer hits than my NASCAR posts, which get fewer hits than just about everything else. It's enough to make a guy mildly irritated!RAZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17519699812373438878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700049103080920994.post-23163118281581505552014-09-03T23:18:38.658-04:002014-09-03T23:18:38.658-04:00My neighbor works for the Mars candy people.

And because of the coloring, you can't really tell who is sliding in, because during Reese's playing career in Brooklyn, a few clubs wore socks with multiple stripes:<br /><br />http://exhibits.baseballhalloffame.org/dressed_to_the_nines/uniforms.asp?league=&city=&lowYear=1940&highYear=1957&sort=year&increment=18<br /><br />The Reds had colored socks with white stripes were the Reds, but they didn't wear blue (obviously), plus during the years of their striped socks, they wore vests.<br /><br />http://exhibits.baseballhalloffame.org/dressed_to_the_nines/uniforms.asp?league=NL&city=Cincinnati&lowYear=1940&highYear=1957&sort=year&increment=18<br /><br />The sliding player might be a NY Giant, though their striped socks were not uniformly striped. <br /><br />http://exhibits.baseballhalloffame.org/dressed_to_the_nines/uniforms.asp?league=NL&city=New+York&lowYear=1940&highYear=1957&sort=year&increment=18<br /><br />My guess is that player sliding is from the 1957 Cubs:<br /><br />http://exhibits.baseballhalloffame.org/dressed_to_the_nines/detail_page.asp?fileName=nl_1957_chicago.gif&Entryid=908JediJeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10261262040532716901noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700049103080920994.post-58524635105784734082014-09-03T22:16:46.588-04:002014-09-03T22:16:46.588-04:00Cards make everything better!

I didn't even notice the "Pinch Hitter" designation on the Guerrero. <br /><br />I agree on readership as well, it has dipped this past month or so. Can't figure out why for the life of me. <br /><br />P.S. -- I think I might know someone who could use that GQ Kerhsaw mini if it's not already spoken for.
