Why does this game exist
That Steve Nash is exactly the same as Kirk Hinrich, but worse.

See, the universe started in a big bang
At this point all the Masset in the universe was contained in a single infinitely small point. It then rapidly expanded through space and time, causing Masset to be spread throughout the known universe. 15 billion years later, this Masset can be found in concentrations of certain terrestial beings known as “pitchers.” Even pitchers who do not exhibit signs of strong Masset concentration can still exhibit Masset-like qualities from time to time.

After AJ's triple it made me curious about triples by catchers.
Apparently #72 had 47 in his career.
And this is career number 16 for Anthony John who had 6 of em back in 2002.

Some theorize
that given enough Masset in a high enough concentration, the sheer gravitational force will cause time itself to slow down. Such a concentration of Masset has never been seen, but has been hypothesized to be possible in sporting contests called “baseball games.” From the point of view of an observer of said game, time would continue at a normal pace but such an event would never end. From the point of view of an outsider, the participants and observers of such a game would appear to be moving in slow motion.

tabasco shoulda just pitched the 6th and 7th
why didn’t he tell anyone he knows how to sit em down in order?
and this is why you don’t start typing comments early.
How'd the game end up going?
I assume it’s over because it’s 11:14 in the PM and Comcast must be showing the encore and the “10th” in the graphic is a typo
"and we'll continue playing it forever just because this is the....."
