[QUOTE="Techcaster572, post: 1000756, member: 6770"] I see lots of concern about last night's game because it was Cornell. I would point out the following: Winning streaks in baseball are so very tough because its really difficult to impose your will in baseball like you can in football. In football, you go right at the man across from you and if you dominate him, you usually win. That is not the case in baseball. Truly the only one on one matchup is the pitcher vs the hitter. It's very tough even to sweep a team no matter the talent disparity. Baseball is completely different and, lets be honest, luck is involved. That's why they call it "ground ball with eyes". You could hit a "rocket" but if its hit right at an outfielder, its simply a loud out. Baseball is similar to hockey in that if you have a solid or even great Pitcher, you can shut down a team. Same applies with hockey. The LA Dodgers are loaded with talent similar to the Braves and I would bet $$$ that neither club breaks the 110-win marker which equates to a win % of 68%. Winning the majority of mid-week games and winning 2 of 3 weekend games should be the goal. [/QUOTE]
