Hi everyone.

Why do they call it the rubber match, anyway? :dunno:

"According to Paul Dickson's The New Dickson's Baseball Dictionary (Harcourt Brace, 1999), a "rubber game" is "The last and deciding game of a series when the previous games have been split; e.g., the seventh game of the World Series." This tie-breaking sense of "rubber" apparently originated in the pulse-pounding English game of "bowls," or lawn bowling. Despite its name, bowls has little in common with American bowling, and consists of rolling wooden balls (called "bowls") across a level green, the object being to get your ball as close as possible to (but not to hit) a little white ball at the other end of the green. "Rubber" in its tie-breaking sense first appeared in the context of bowls around 1599, and was in use by the card-playing crowd (whist, bridge, etc.) by 1744. A set of three games of bridge is still generally referred to as a "rubber."
: Unfortunately, no one knows where "rubber" in this sense came from. It appears to be unrelated to the elastic sort of "rubber." (Incidentally, our modern elastic "rubber" is short for "India-rubber," from its original source in the East Indies. "Rubber" previously meant anything used to rub, smooth or clean.) Brewer's Dictionary of Phrase and Fable ventures that the term may have referred to two "bowls" rubbing together, a fatal error in the game of bowls. Or it might be a metaphorical use of "rubber" (something that expunges) referring to the "sudden death" third game of a series, the loss of which would conclusively "rub out" the losing team's hopes. But there is, sad to say, no solid evidence for either theory."

I'll throw some good news to start..
Boston is getting beat up, 5-0 so far in the third and WS threatening for more..

The Trenton update:
Zilla is 0-2, K'd in his first AB but then hit a liner to RF, hit it well, looks good.
And in the drool department, P Hughes has 9 K's in 4 innings and is just looking like a god amongst men..
I wonder if he is available this October :) (yeah kidding, but only half!!)

Reyes has actually had a pretty nice year statistically, though. I thought that he'd be more overrated than he actually is, if that makes sense. I thought he might be one of those guys who is extremely overrated thanks to his speed, but he's hit for a nice amount of power this year, too, and his OPS is around .850. He's surprised me.
