    The record for most hits in a World Series is 13, by Lou Brock/Marty Barrett/Bobby Richardson. So David Wright didn't just break that record, he incinerated it. And from the brief look of his game log he already had tied the record through five games and broke it in Game 6. 😱

    • @warlordofbritannia
      @warlordofbritannia 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Marty Barrett (1986) and Bobby Richardson (1960) did theirs in losing efforts, interestingly enough.
      Richardson got the WS MVP nonetheless while Barrett didn’t when the Red Sox blew it, as we all know how…

    OOTP has a lot of bizarre ways for player to get injured; I once saw J.T. Realmuto get suspended for an incident in managing a nightclub.

    The A's have been in all 4 of the AL wild card games so far in this save. They were in the first ever one in 2012 in which they lost to the twins in Minnesota. They then hosted the next 3 and beat Detroit in 2013 before losing to the eventual world series champion Mariners in 4 games. Then for the 2 games in this video both times they hosted the Angels. They won the first one before losing in 5 games to the eventual AL Champion Rangers. Then they lost the second one to the Angels who went on to win the AL pennant too. Overall each season they keep winning more games going from 81, 85, 88, to 95 wins in 2015. And naturally in their best season they lose in a 1 game playoff round. Overall pretty accurate that the A's would be in the most wild card games, the only inaccuracy is them actually winning 2 and hosting the majority of them.
