If you go to their page, click on one of their teams, there is a menu option that says "History" with all the old stats and schedules going back to the 1980s. It's really impressive. The U18 team plays a really limited schedule, like 8 to 10 games a year, so it's really hard to read too much into their stats. They also tend to play in tournaments, so there are always some games against teams like Argentina or Italy which bloat their stats. Anyway, Kershaw only pitched in 1 game with Team USA, still got a card though. <br /><br />https://img.mlbstatic.com/opprops-images/image/upload/opprops/n2nalrsvbspreyykfwro.pdfThe Snorting Bullhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11376669412007613030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4199201726099157936.post-4960699608308405042021-01-09T05:03:58.763-08:002021-01-09T05:03:58.763-08:00There was outrage at the rioting last summer, whic...There was outrage at the rioting last summer, which should be separated from the peaceful protests by blm and their supporters since the instigators of the rioting were found to be at least in some cases white nationalists. <br />Blm and others were protesting systemic racism and police brutality. The actions in D.C. this week were an attempt to overturn a fair democratic election. Every American should be outraged at that. <br />Over the last four years it has become abundantly clear that those calling themselves rebuplicans belong to the party of hypocrisy. gcrlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06025001883745401515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4199201726099157936.post-32249356237806033582021-01-09T03:50:27.815-08:002021-01-09T03:50:27.815-08:00I actually did the opposite, I avoided watching th...I actually did the opposite, I avoided watching the news knowing something was going to happen from the buildup.
