8) making the same point over and over again
9) typing "no-hitter" or "perfect game" to describe either in progress
10) being annoyed by the existence of this list
11) commenting under the obvious influence
12) claiming your opinion isn't allowed when it's just being disagreed with
... that the Giants have won 11 consecutive regular-season games? They finished the 2002 season with an eight-game winning streak.
(Make it 12 - San Francisco just rallied to beat Milwaukee.)
...that Dodger castoff Terry Shumpert not only started for Tampa Bay on Thursday, he batted cleanup? (Thanks to Joe Sheehan of Baseball Prospectus.)
...that Dodger Stadium will charge more for beer than any other major league ballpark - but that overall, the cost of a family going to a Dodger game is below the major league average. (See the Team Marketing Report Fan Cost Index for baseball.)
