Roughned Odor is on the Verge of Something Historic (There’s a “but…”)

Roughned Odor is having an interesting season (and it has nothing to do with that chopping right to Jose Bautista’s jaw).

The table toward the end is pretty amazing. Different game.

Primer Dugout (and link of the day) 5-10-2016

Pittsburgh Gazette Times, May 10, 1916:

Thirty bases on balls were given in the game in which Detroit defeated Philadelphia [yesterday], 16 to 2. Eighteen of those passes were handed out by the [Athletics] twirlers, Ray leading with 12, while Cunningham and Boland of Detroit each gave six.

To this day, that’s the record for most walks by both teams in one game. Here’s the box score. Note the time of game: 2:30.
