Two REMARKABLE stats involving the #32

[Fishhead]

Red Sox pitching staff currently in the midst of tossing 32 scoreless innings in a row!

Meanwhile, Derek Jeter is struggling in a career worst 0-32 slump.

 

[wilheim]

Jeter at 0 for 32 is not close to the Major League record for longest hitless streaks in a season. That record belongs to Bob Bhul who went 0-for-70 in 1962 with the Chicago Cubs and Milwaukee Braves. Another quirk regarding Jeter - He has gone 4,957 at-bats in his career without a grand slam. Eric Young led that list among active major leaguers with 5,532 at-bats through Wednesday. Jeter takes a .161 average into Thursday night's game against Barry Zito and the Athletics. Jeter has done well vs. the former Cy Young winner, going 7-for-16.

jeter homers in 1st inning to break the slump. . .sox best record in all of baseball @ 14-6 with a 5-2 lead in the 1st inn of the game in progress

 

[wilheim]

Jeter continues to hit Barry Zito. Damien Moss lasted a third of an inning tonite vs. Red Sox.7-2 - Sox still up in the first.

one year the NL, AL, NFL & AFL all had the same #32 on their mvp's.....ScottyS

 

[wilheim]

ScottyS - you must be talking about 1963 when 32's Sandy Kaufax, and Elston Howard won MVP Awards in MLB. Jim Brown would be another 32 although Y.A. Tittle was NFL MVP in 63. There was not a prominient number 32 in the AFL in the early 60's.

Wilheim, I think the other #32 belonged to Jim Nance.....ScottyS

 

[wilheim]

Scotty - Thanks, but Jim Nance, who I seen play a few times was number 35.
