I have been playing in an 8-person Diamond Mind Baseball league for the last 4 years.
I am in the middle of an 11 game losing streak. And I mean that - I expect to lose 22 games before it's all set.
Which would be fine if my team sucked but Christ, they shouldn't be this fucking bad. I will document this streak. We're playing an AL-only season with 2008 stats. There's, what, 14 AL teams in real life? So our teams have some of the truly terrible players not around, as we've fewer teams.
Game One: Evansville Hitmen 4, Rochester Radiation 1

- The bats of my guys begin to go cold. I ran into excellent pitching - Ervin Santana in 2008 was an excellent pitcher. You'll note that Miguel Cabrera was batting .198 going into this game. I assure you his on-base and slugging percentage were just as bad. Cabrera ruining everything will prove to be a constant source of frustration in this losing streak.
