Standings And Statistics: Gameday 14 Recap

So looking back on here, I realized it’s been a couple of weeks since I’ve updated this blog. I’ve been enjoying trying to put out YouTube content, including some live streaming events (such as tonight, will update with a link as soon as it completes processing).

The TBL continues to be decked in Dodger Blue after 14 games. Find the standings below:

If you notice, this is a different format than before. We’ve moved to BallStat as our statistic compiling software. The Rangers are two games back of the Dodgers, followed by the Cardinals and the Cubs rounding out the top 4.

In terms of league statistics, here are some of the key statistics for both pitching and hitting after 14 games:

And pitching:

I’ll try to keep things updated from hereon out. BallStat makes it a bit easier. I would prefer to use it to create a website that anyone can peruse on their own. Maybe down the road I’ll have the resources to afford such luxuries.

Gameday 11: Recaps

So we’ve gone to Ballstat here at the Ten-acious Baseball League. This program saves some time with compiling all the necessary information to bring you the league results.

We won’t have actual writeups again for Gameday 11; instead, please find boxscores below.

Gameday 10 Recap: Rangers 9, Royals 6

A 5-run 2nd inning sent the Texas Rangers up for good, as they defeated the Kansas City Royals 9-6.

Derek Holland pitched 7 innings for the Rangers, giving up 6 runs on 7 hits. Only 3 of the runs were earned, as Texas committed 3 errors on the day.

Prince Fielder had a 3 hit day for the Rangers, driving in 3 in the process. Texas pounded 14 total hits, 13 of which came off of Royals starter Jeremy Guthrie. Guthrie gave up all 9 runs in only 6 innings of work.

Gameday 10 Recap: The Cubs Crush At Comiskey, 14-4

After the White Sox pounded their way to a 4-0 2nd inning lead, it seemed that the Cubs would take their 4th loss of the season to their cross-town rivals. Instead they came back with 7 runs over the next 3 innings, overpowering the Sox 14-4.

The Cubs were good for 4 home runs on this day, chasing Sox starter Erik Johnson in the 6th inning after giving up 8 runs. Kris Bryant drove in 4 runs, while Jorge Soler and Miguel Montero each drove in 3.

For the White Sox, Trayce Thompson went 1-for-4 with a home run and 3 RBI.

Video: Gameday 10, Minnesota Twins at St. Louis Cardinals

First thing’s first, if you haven’t subscribed to our YouTube channel, what are you waiting for? The posting of gameday videos doesn’t always happen in the timeliest manner here at the blog, so if you want action on a faster turnaround, get over there and hook yourself up to the Ten-acious Strat account.

In this matchup, the Twins send Phil Hughes to the Busch Stadium mound to take on Carlos Martinez and the St. Louis Cardinals. Check it out and see which Midwestern franchise comes out on top!

VIDEO: Gameday 10, Detroit Tigers (Simon) at Milwaukee Brewers (Lohse)

Moving right along in Gameday 10, we have a matchup of teams looking to find their stride. The Brewers, only a game below 0.500, play host to last place Detroit. The starters, Alfredo Simon for the Tigers and Kyle Lohse for the Brew Crew, had starts to forget last time out. Does that mean this will turn into a shootout? Watch the action and see.

 

Video: TBL Gameday 10, 2015 LA Dodgers at 2015 Colorado Rockies

We’re into the 10th Gameday of the Ten-acious Baseball League season, and the Dodgers tried to (wait for it…) get on a Rocky Mountain High heading northeast to Denver for a set with Colorado. We’ll see if Adrian Gonzalez and the boys will make it rain fire in the sky, or if Charlie Blackmon and the Rockies will offer more than a casual reply.

Gameday 9: 3 Game Videos, Full Standings and Statistics

 

The pulls of life have slid the priority of reporting the Ten-acious Baseball League results a little bit down on the list. The TBL continues to churn on at its own beautiful pace, and we’re through Gameday 9. Perhaps the best way to keep up with the league is through our YouTube channel, click on the link there and subscribe. I will continue to post at least 1 game video per “day,” and perhaps more.

For Gameday 9, we’ve recorded 3 games for your viewing:

Chicago Cubs (Hammel) at Los Angeles Dodgers (Wood)

Chicago White Sox (Samardzija) at Kansas City Royals (Ventura)

Texas Rangers (Lewis) at St. Louis Cardinals (Wacha)

So at this point, here are the updated standings for the TBL, through games played on June 20, 2016:

At some point, I may come up with a full set of scheduled games & results to post here. I have been recapping the games, but unless I’m in the mood it’s tough to set aside time for that when I could be rolling. Find below a lot more information on league leaders and a statistical breakdown of each team. This season is too far along to start considering split statistical tracking, so maybe in future seasons I’ll try to incorporate that into the legwork. If I go back to using a program like BallStat (which I tried before, and might spend a few days entering game data), I’ll definitely have more of that data at my avail to post.

Here are the updated standings & statistics:

Gameday 8: Video Recap and One Other Gameplay

We’ve completed Gameday 8 here at the Ten-acious Baseball League. It’s actually been completed for a week now. I neglected to post a recap of the action from Gameday 8 here on the blog. The reason was because I created a video recap and then completely forgot to post it here. Here is the recap over at our YouTube Channel:

I would love it if you’d subscribe to our YouTube channel. There will be at least 1 gameplay video each Gameday, barring some extenuating circumstances that arise in the future. I’d also like to start coming up with some other types of video posts to help keep the channel fresh and moving with ideas.

Unfortunately, I only made hard copies of the Gameday 8 statistics. If the desire hits me right, I may scan those in and post down the line.

The TBL continues to chug on, be on the lookout for Gameday 9 updates later today or early tomorrow. We’ll be moving into the 4th (of 18) series very shortly.

In the meantime, here’s another gameplay video from Gameday 8 that I failed to post. It’s an I-94 showdown between the Brewers and Twins.

 

Video: Gameday 8, Cubs at Dodgers

 

Gameday 8 begins with the second game of the marquee matchup for Series 3. The Dodgers conquered the Cubs in Game 1 of the series, and now Chicago looks to get back to level with Tinseltown’s team. Your starting pitchers are Jon Lester for the Cubs and Brett Anderson for the Dodgers. There will be a second game video made available later in the weekend, stay tuned!
