Picked 2006 because it’s the year he (Hamels) debuted. Not sure if there’s a standard method for deciding which players are contemporaries.

Still includes Sale and Price.

Halladay debuted in ‘98, seems fair to leave him out.

Johan and Oswalt wouldn’t change the math.

These 2 very close:

Spending the night at Citizens Bank Park. Crazy.

They’re about to kick off a tour. Can take swings in the cage while we wait.

Lions 0-5 on 4th down vs Eagles, have a chance to break their own record
The NFL record for most failed fourth-down attempts in a single game is six, set by the Detroit Lions in a 2022 loss to the New England Patriots. The Lions went O-for-6 on fourth downs in that game.
