In a move that can only be described as sheer genius, the Crips start Johnny Podres, a lefty who toiled in the minors for all of 2006, against the Houston Scalpers in a must-win playoff game. Podres comes up big, shutting down the Scalpers offense and throwing a CG 1-hitter. Houston manageer Matt is not pleased.

4/30/2005
David Cone throws a no-hitter against Long Island. The only run comes on a Mike Schmidt error in the 7th. Not to be outdone...

Pythagorean winning percentage (PY%) is an estimate of a team's winning percentage given their runs scored and runs allowed. Developed by Bill James, it can tell you when teams were a bit lucky or unlucky. It is calculated by:

(team runs scored ^ 2 ) / ( team runs scored ^ 2 + team runs allowed ^ 2 )
