my daughter will turn 3 in 2021, perhaps this is the year we'll take her for the first time.

We went to quite a few games with a friend's 3 YO daughter and it seemed that the trick was food food food sugar sugar sugar coma coma coma

if these are british times, all the night games are instead in the afternoon, and the afternoon games early morning.

They're US Eastern times expressed in British format.

it's 24 hour notation.  Nothing exclusively British about it. The British use it but so does the U.S. military.

Truth

Except the US military writes the time with no punctuation between the hour and the minute just because they have to be different.

[Ali the Baseball Cat]

I love late afternoon starts.  Except for those that go 18 innings after 9th inning Storenification. 

Most importantly, when is

And don't forget that anyone who rights 2400 or 24:00, meaning midnight, is just flat wrong.

They did the same thing for Trump in 2016 before anyone loses their mind.

Opener against the Mets will be on ESPN. Expect the lovefest with the Mets and Cohen to start big time.

This one always bugs me.  I usually try to get around it by writing 0001.

Argh. The real question I have is why the hell did I post 'rights' instead of 'writes?' I can't even blame it on my phone's autocorrect because I used the PC.

LOL.  I knew what you meant.

Midnight rites?

Midnight rites?

Reed rites are a real prayin in the grass?

Can't help but think that all sports will once again be fanless in 2021.  We've a long way to go and a short time to get there...

would make the eCash option on SPH bonuses sensible.  There's going to be fewer games to pick from if you get the extra tickets, and I'm assuming once the eCash bonus is in your account, they won't expire it.  Had a ticket group member already ask me if the ticket bonus rolls over to 2022.

Also, has anyone tried this week to get answers from the ticket office for questions about the bonuses?  I think my agent might have gotten laid off.

The terms are very clear that the bonus is only for 2021. But, if there really are no fans allowed for the 2021 season, I think it would be tough for them not to roll it over to 2022. I’d more worried that fans are allowed back starting august 1 and then having to use the full credit over 2 months. I can’t eat that many hot dogs.

ecash has always rolled over...can't see them changing that, but you never know...
