Something is amiss with that math.  ;)




Fixed. Good catch. Thanks.

Not so fast there! 23+20 = 43.

I am so confused.



I didn't understand how seven games under .500 would get the Pirates to 87 wins. That is a losing record. 81-81 is .500.

I thing we need to get a "math checker" on this site similar to spelling checker. Especially for a guy from Iowa! ;) Will have Gunner look into it.

It's no confusing at all Dogknot. If you get IABucFan's math correct and they are actually 7 game under .500 now all they have to do is go 12 games over .500 the rest of the way!
