I should have said it was a baseball game not a football game. So no the e-mailer didn't talk about any football.

SDPM/ Or anyone, is there a way to make your FM leave the pitch if they are really tired or have a minor injury? Im guessing there isnt because I havent been able to find a way.

I've given up on the Laurel and Hardy baseball show and if Laurel keeps presenting the Monday Night Football that may go the same way.

You mean after you've used all your substitutes? No, I don't think there is.

I'd just thought it was odd that someone in a town of 100,000 would email in.
Just an interesting note I thought you might like.

That really sucks because you risk serious injury ny leaving a partially injured player out there.

What was he a student ? a woman ? a first timer ? Because that's usually the only emails they read out. Most of the fans who watch the show have grown up with the sport through the years and are educated about baseball but the show nor the presenters specially Gould have grown up, I mean seeing he's been doing a baseball show for years Gould is pretty dumb.

I can't remember tbh, if any was mentioned it was first timer.

Even if I wanted to, I'm not sure it would be a go-er. This is what is on the Rangers' website:

Quote:

The Rangers do not provide autographed pictures, postcards, baseballs, cards or other items, but you are welcome to write each player individually to request an autograph. Enclose a self-addressed, stamped envelope along with the item that you would like autographed. Address your request directly to the player at: Texas Rangers, P.O. Box 90111, Arlington, Texas, 76004-3111. The Rangers are not responsible for any items sent directly to players.

All that says is that if you want an item signed you have to provide it. Everything else seems like you will get a reply.
