LoL, slightly off topic but had to laugh when Keith said to paraphrase that it looks like a bit of a turnout for Dickey today and the camera pans to what are mostly empty seats.
Wow.
That’s nice, let’s bench Ike Davis the day after he hits a HR off a lefty. I can’t take this guy anymore.
Well there are more people to see Dickey than usually go….
Anyone take note how at the deadline we were close to matching last year’s attendance totals but as soon as Sandy gave up the average per game attendance has dropped by more than 2K per game?
Congrats to R.A. as the Dickey Train is now 1 stop away from win #20.
One win away, I hope that he gets it at home
