Yes, WMP's July OBP+SLG was higher than Varitek's: .768 to .765.

Snuffer allowed 2 HRs, inflating his ERA while his WHIP stayed nice and low.

I think some stray code in this post is causing the whole blog to be in bold.

allan said...

Not for me. Anyone else having this bold problem?

It is a real faint bold

real faint bold

That's called "regular text".

Looks normal to me. Except for all the numbers. :)

I still see the boldness in Safari (in all of the posts except for the most recent one), but not in Firefox. Mysterious. I can send you a screen shot if you care.

I believe you. It's weird, but I don't think it's anything I'm doing (or not doing).
