Based on logo, I'd go w/ Cap Anson. Based on heart, I'd go w/ Brewers. But I have to go w/ the Cubs. Meaning the Pirates will win division with a 79-83 record.

MOP-UP RELIEF MASCOTS WIN PENNANTS

That there bird's aimin' to throw a shineball, I reckon.

'stros = pennant; hunter pence = MVP

god, I love that old Brewers logo

Yeah! It's actually against MLB rules.

say more about this

it took me a minute to find:

No images of baseballs: No "pattern that imitates or suggests the shape of a baseball" may be used on uniforms. Notably, in apparent violation of this rule, the Milwaukee Brewers, Florida Marlins and Philadelphia Phillies for many years had logos that incorporated the image of a baseball. However, while the Philadelphia cap logo clearly depicted the baseball, the logo worn on the uniform jersey did not feature the image of the stylized stitching indicating the image of a baseball. The Brewers logo made a comeback in 2006 on the hats of the Brewers' Sunday home uniforms and is now the Brewers' Friday home uniform. Also, many teams such as the Giants, Nationals, Rangers and the Mariners use uniform logos that clearly depict a baseball, and the New York Mets have featured uniforms with a sleeve logo that imitates the appearance of a baseball since the team's inception in 1962, so it may be that the rule is not enforced, at least for caps. (The purpose of this rule is to prevent one team from deceiving the other. The National Football League has a similar rule, which states that no pattern that imitates or suggests the shape of a football).

holy crap

Now if Jimmy can just explain the timing play . . .

magic?

What about bats?

Maybe in basebat.

The idea is that an image of a baseball on a uniform may confuse the other team as to the real ball's location. But as it says in Jimmy's quote, it's not enforced.
