Worst team ever?
Here's the 1967 Washington Senators
For some reason, they didnt have enough hitters, so they had to use pitchers to hit. They went 10-142. Whats wierd is, is Batting Report, it shows pitchers having a ton of AB's, but nowhere else. On the players ingame card, it doesnt show any batting stats. C Jack Shepard .180 AVG 0 HR 15 RBI -30 VORP 2B Zoilo Versalles .178 AVG 8 HR 26 RBI -47 VORP 3B Gene Leek .160 AVG 3 HR 30 RBI -58 VORP 1B Joe Adcock . 237 AVG 10HR 21 RBI(HR & RBI leader) -12 VORP SS Billy Goodman .236 AVG 0 HR 14 RBI -9 VORP CF Ken Hunt .101 AVG 2 HR 4 RBI(Only 286 AB's) -41 VORP SS Dick Groat .115 AVG 0 HR 3 RBI -10 VORP Thats all the batting starts for position people. They have these pitchers batting stats: SP Jim Kaat .178 AVG 8 HR 26 RBI 191 Games(??) 580 AB -27 VORP SP Joe Coleman .114 AVG 0 HR 12 RBI 174 Games 516 AB 5.5 VORP SP Taylor Phillips .082 AVG 0 HR 6 RBI 137 Games 388 AB -1.7 VORP They have the following fielding stats for these pitchers: Jim Kaat: 19 Games in Left, 89 Games in Center and 42 Games in Right(All Started) Joe Coleman: 89 Games in left and 42 Games in Center(all started) Taylor Phillips: 84 Games in Right, 19 Games in Center and 4 in Right(all started) Now, here's Jim Kaat's pitching line: 6-31, 5.05 ERA 37 GS, 304 Innings How did he start all these games? Must be pretty amazing to start 150 Games in the field and 37 games on the mound Well i guess the batting stats for the pitchers do show on the player card. But there seems to be none on the history card. Last edited by Qrusher14242; 06-06-2006 at 04:55 AM. |

This makes me laugh, but it probably shouldn't happen.

That does explain Kaat's numbers: he must have been exhausted racing back & forth from the mound to the outfield. It is remarkable that he could even pick up a baseball, much less throw one.
