I made it through the day without the A/C having to be turned on. It stayed very nice in the house today, and just finished a 30 minute down pour outside.

We have blackout curtains. I bought them because we go to bed long before the sun goes down. An unexpected bonus is they keep the heat of the mid-day sun out. I can feel the warmth on the curtains. I expect we do get some heat that radiates off the curtains, but much less than we would without them.
Good morning! It's 72°F and mostly clear.
Have a great Tuesday!

So does that mean you got the double whammy when Dad got home from work?

Wasn't sp bad today. Got to upper 90s (97F when I checked my outdoor sensor) but relatively dry.
When I went for my walk this morning it was around 86F or 87F when I started and a few degrees hotter when I finished but the temp shot up in the afternoon. Bit we've had a bunch of >100F days so 97F is fine
. Again this is low humidity, otherwise we'd be dying.
Unfortunately my office is a little hot. I need to get the blinds I bought installed so that the sun doesn't heat it up in the morning. I'm pretty sure that the passive cooling of this "bonus space" from the rest of the house would be better if the room wasn't heated up by the sun in the morning. Sun comes up and shines directly in the window all morning to lunch... The floor gets warm and I can feel the heat on the floor all day.

I suspect the blinds will help.

Good morning, Everybody!
Today is the MLB All-Star game.
If you have no interest in baseball, please, feel free to skip over the rest of this post.
Like every all-star game in most sports the MLB All-Star game has deteriorated into a show of individualism. With that in mind I still enjoy seeing the matchups between the best pitchers and hitters in MLB.
Paul Skenes of the Pirates will be the starting pitcher for the National League. Tarik Skubal of the Tigers will be the starting pitcher for the American League.
An interesting note, at least for me it is. Paul Skenes 4W-8L at the break. He could be the first starting pitcher to win the CY Young Award with an upside-down win-loss record. The only other pitcher to accomplish that feat was closer Eric Gagne of the 2003 Los Angeles Dodgers. Eric won the 2003 National League Cy Young Award with 2W-3L for the season. He was the dominant closer that season, converting all 55 save opportunities while posting a 1.20 ERA.
A few others came close; Jacob deGrom won the Cy Young in 2018 with a 10W-9L record. Felix Hernandez won the Cy Young in 2010 with a 13W-12L record. Sparking the debate about the relevance of wins as a measure of starting pitchers. Further shifting focus toward ERA and other advanced metrics. I'm from the "old school" wins are relevant to me, But I understand starters are often limited to 100-pitches per game. Without run support wins can be hard to come by.
The last confirmed instance of a pitcher throwing over 200-pitches in a single MLB game was Nolan Ryan on June 14, 1974. He threw an astonishing 235 pitches in 13 innings for the California Angels in a 15-inning game against the Boston Red Sox. Ryan struck out 19 batters, walked 10, and faced 58 hitters. A workload that’s unimaginable in today's game. Modern pitch counts rarely exceed 120, making Ryan’s feat a relic of a bygone era. The only one to come close, since official pitch tracking began in 1988 was knuckleballer Tim Wakefield who threw 172 pitches in 10+ innings in 1993. Knuckleball pitchers didn't throw as hard as other pitchers.
Which reminds me of knuckleballer Wilbur Wood. He was the most durable pitcher of my lifetime. Wood reinvented himself after joining the White Sox in 1967. He refined his knuckleball under the guidance of master knuckleballer Hoyt Wilhelm.
Wilbur Wood's stamina was legendary! He is the last pitcher in MLB history to start both games of a doubleheader, July 20, 1973. He often pitched on two days' rest. Leading the league in games started four years in a row (1972–1975) He pitch 376.2 innings in 1972 alone. Wood once posted a 24W-20L record, becoming the first pitcher since Walter Johnson in 1916 to win and lose 20 games in a season. Wilbur lead the league in games started from 1971-1975. With over 42 starts in every year including 49 starts, twice 1972 & 1973!
The knuckleball is not completely gone from MLB, though it’s a rare breed these days. As of 2025, Matt Waldron of the San Diego Padres is the only active MLB pitcher regularly throwing a knuckleball. There’s also Kenny Serwa, a Detroit Tigers prospect who throws an 88-mph knuckleball, the fastest ever recorded. He’s currently in Double-A, but if he makes it to the majors, he could become the next true knuckleballer in MLB. If these guys find success others will follow, I can only hope!
Now back to stamina. Keep in mind modern pitchers throw every pitch with maximum effort. All MLB hitters can reach the fences. There is nowhere to coast through any MLB lineup.
Now I'm thinking of Bucky Dent! October 2, 1978, the day the name Dent became a four-letter word in Boston. In a one-game playoff at Fenway Park to decide the American League East title, the Yankees trailed the Red Sox 2-0 in the 7th inning. With two outs and two men on, Dent, batting ninth and known more for his glove than his bat, fouled a pitch off his foot in doing so he cracked his bat and borrowed Mickey Rivers’ bat. Then came the moment: he lofted a three-run homer over the Green Monster, stunning the crowd and giving the Yankees a 3-2 lead. It was only Dent’s fifth home run of the season. That homerun turned him into a Yankee legend, and a lifelong villain in Boston. The Yankees went on to win 5–4, clinch the division, and eventually take the World Series.
You see how my mind wonders.
The record for most innings pitched in a single MLB season belongs to Will White, who threw a staggering 680.0 innings in 1879 for the Cincinnati Reds! That was in the 19th century, when pitchers often started 70+ games and completed many of them. The game was vastly different, no pitch counts, and extraordinarily little bullpen strategy. Add to that the "dead" ball which allowed pitchers to pitch to contact rather than trying to strike everybody out.
Since the turn of the century the highest total belongs to Ed Walsh, who pitched 464.0 innings in 1908 for the Chicago White Sox. Which was more than a decade before Babe Ruth and the homerun revolutionized the game. Before that the balls were not replaced when dirty and the
"Spitball" was legal. "Foreign substance, forget about it!" After Ruth's record 54 home runs and popularity in 1920, the ball became lighter and denser.
The last MLB pitcher to throw over 300 innings in a single season was Steve Carlton, who pitched 304.0 innings in 1980 for the Philadelphia Phillies. That season, he went 24-9 with a 2.34ERA earning his third Cy Young Award and helping lead the Phillies to a World Series title.
In the seventies 300-innings pitched was rare, but there were several who accomplished the feat. Here is a list of a few I remember from the seventies; there may be others.
Phil Niekro 342.0 innings pitched for the 1979 Braves
Jim Palmer 319.0 innings pitched for the 1977 Orioles
Jim "Catfish" Hunter 328.0 innings pitched for the 1975 Yankees
Nolan Ryan 332.2 innings pitched for the 1974 Angels
Wilbur Wood 359.1 innings pitched for the 1973 White Sox
Steve Carlton 346.1 innings pitched for the 1972 Phillies
Wilbur Wood 376.2 innings pitched for the 1972 White Sox
Mickey Lolich 376.0 innings pitched for the 1971 Tigers
The closest in decades was Roy Halladay, who pitched 266.0 innings for the Blue Jays in 2003.
I verified some of the facts at MLB.com. Some are off the top of my head. Sue me if I'm wrong.
Now you see where my mind wonders where there are no baseball games.
And Amazon (cheap bastards!) doesn't keep me busy in the early morning hours. I've said it before I'll say it again. "I refuse to work for punk money!"
"Hold the phone, Fred!" My wife tells me we will be working for Amazon at 6:15am and not for Punk money!

Actually sometimes it was a triple whammy! First it was one of the nuns at school, who normally didn't report it; but then some classmate would tell his Mom who would call my Mom who took care of it first; then Dad would come home and there was a third reckoning. Eventually kids stopped telling parents around the 5th grade or so, when they realized the consequences.

Well, howdy there internet peeps and those who were soap connoisseurs in their youth
It's Troy again. I can only remember eating soap once, and then on a dare. Mom prefered a plastic flyswatter.
Managed to fall asleep at the 4 am pee run. Which was preceded by the 2 am pee run, etc.
I was up at 5:44 plugging in all of my bionic gadgets.
Not sure what today will bring. I'm playing this one by ear, which isn't good with my tinnitus.
Speaking of sound, my 25 year old subwoofer for the stereo system decided to crap out. It started makina a low hmmmmmmmmmmmm when idle. So I pulled the plug, let it sit for several days. Then plugged it back into power, but had NO audio inputs attached. Same hummmmmmmmm started in about 45ish minutes.
My hearing is bad enough that I'll just do without it. I keep the Denon receiver/amp system on Stereo 90% of the time since I listen to music way more than watching shows/movies.
I'm debating on getting a sound bar with sub for the few times I do watch movies.

Is the hum coming from the speaker itself or where the power cord plugs in? If it's the speaker, hopefully it is corrosion on the terminals. If it is near where the power cord plugs in, then it would be the input transformer. My velodyne that I've had for 30 years has been humming at the transformer for at least half of that time. Can't get a replacement transformer so I just live with it. It can use a good contact cleaner spraying on the terminals and rotary dials though.
Oh wait, I just remembered, the rotary dials can cause the hum from the speaker.

As a kid I watched Hoyt Wilhem and then Wilbur Wood throw that knuckler in Chicago. I still wonder what was more impressive, watching that knuckler float, watching the catcher stab the air trying to catch it or watching Bob Gibson throw lightning against the Cubbies.Good morning, Everybody!

Good morning all!
Another humid Northern Illinois day. Currently 73F heading to a high of 88 steamy degrees. Have no outdoor plans other than to
take a dip in the pool this afternoon so it wont matter.
Last night was our second volleyball league game of the 4 scheduled. The first game they were very flat and just couldn't put anything
together. The second game they looked much better. I think I have said before this freshman team is going to be strong. They just need
some time for the girls to learn to mesh together as some came from the Catholic school and the others from the public school. They
will get there.
No real set in stone plans today, so we shall see what the day brings.
hopefully some train time later today and tonight.
Have a safe day everyone!
