This comes compliments of baseball-reference.com, Retrosheet and long-time Tigers beat writer John Lowe. Luke Scott has now had three straight two-homer games against the Tigers, counting the final game against them last season. The last time an opposing player had three consecutive multi-homer games against Detroit was 50 years ago this month, when Hall of Famer Harmon Killebrew did it as a member of the Washington Senators..
Peter Schmuck wants you to know that, contrary to popular belief, he is more than just a bon vivant, raconteur and collector of blousy flowered shirts. He is a semi-respected journalist who has covered virtually every sport -- except luge, of course – and tackled issues that transcend the mere games people play. If that isn’t enough to qualify him to provide witty, wide-ranging commentary on the sports world ... and the rest of the world, for that matter ... he is an avid reader of history, biography and the classics, as well as a charming blowhard who pops off on both sports and politics on WBAL Radio. That means you can expect a little of everything in The Schmuck Stops Here, but the major focus will be keeping you up to the minute on Baltimore’s major sports teams and themes, whether it’s throwing up the Orioles lineup the minute it’s announced or updating you on the latest sprained ankle in Owings Mills. Oh, and by the way, that’s Mr. Schmuck to you.
