The Spilman Experiment

[edfan]

Spilman doubles to lead off the 9th.  4-5 vs Houston and 14-23 on the night.  Except for the Detroit game, he has been quite consistent

[edfan]

Another 2 for 1 update (trying to keep things moving as it is getting late).  Spilman manages 2 more hits, but they are both very 'Sheridan-esque.'  Both seeing eye hits.  Power seems to be eluding Harry in mid-season where it seemed abundant in the early going.

2-2 vs NY; 16-25 on the night

[Gantry]

This is the best, Harry Spilman is the best

Spilman rips one down the line in his 3rd at bat.  Hits the wall hard.  Easy double...or so I thought. Damn is he slow.  Barely beat the throw,  urbis bow 3-3 vs NY and 17-26 overall

[edfan]

Spilman gets another seeing eye single in what will probably be his 4th and final at bat. 

4-4 vs NY but with no power.  18-27 overall with 3 homers so far.  3 games to go

[edfan]

Spilman comes up in his favorite spot.  2 out with Will Clark on 2nd.  Spilman gets a hit, but Clark gets gunned down trying to score.

1-1 vs STL; 19-28 overall.  Spilman has put quite a few hits together, but is not hitting for any power

[edfan]

The streak comes to an end with a whimper.  Spilman pops out to the pitcher

1-2; 19-29

[edfan]

SPILMAN!!! Once again, with Will Clark on 2nd, Spilman takes Danny Cox deep to put the Giants back in the lead 4-2.  This puts him at 2-3 on the game and 20-30 on the night with 4 home runs

[edfan]

Spilman blasted the ball again, but this time right at the 1st baseman.  Ended the inning.

20-31 on the night

[edfan]

Deja Vu.  Spilman crushes the ball again, but right at the 1st baseman...again ending the inning.  2-5 vs STL and 20-32 on the night

[edfan]

Spilman starts off against the AL All Stars with an RBI double to right.  1-1; 21-33 With 4 homers

[Gantry]

An unstoppable force of nature

[edfan]

Giants are not intimidated by AL at all.  Mitchell, Leonard, Maldonado, and Clark all hit home runs in a row.  Spilman came up to make it 5 in a row, but only managed a line shot double off the wall. 

2-2 vs AL; 22-34 overall

Spilmn vs Shrdan has been loaded into the nightwulf editor.

I made every hitter, pitchers included into Spilman and Sheridan for their respective teams.  All pitching stats were defaulted to alexanders.

Sims to commence. . . .

I'm dumb. . . not sure how to take screen shots in fce.

But results from game 1

Sheridans 3
Spilmans 13

Sheridans 6/16, 2 doubles
Spilmans 14/22, 3 doubles, 4 homers

game went 3 innnings

sorry for semi hijacking edfan's thread

[edfan]

Spilman only gets the 2 at bats against AL because the Giants pounded them 11-1 in 2 innings.  Final game of the season vs NL coming up

No worries.  The more RBI the better

No worries.  The more RBI the better

Plus your game seems to solidify my theory that Pat Sheridan is a worthless chode

100% agree

Spilman leads off the 2nd with the Giants in unfamiliar territory...down 4-1.  Krukow got touched up pretty bad in the 1st.  Spilman doesn't help anything and grounds out to short.  0-1 and 22-35 on the night
