Things that can't be true but feel like it: I think when I consider pinch-hitting for the pitcher but don't, the pitcher usually gets on base. However, one time when I was congratulating myself for letting a guy hit a single, the next batter hit a ground ball, the pitcher got hurt breaking up a double play and went on the disabled list.
