It’s playoff time in Major League Baseball which means I’ll be playing particularly close attention to baseball scores around the league. Today was game 1 of the division series for three of the four series (my New York Mets play those streaky Los Angeles Dodgers tomorrow afternoon at Shea) and so I was following up on scores at sports.yahoo.com/mlb. I noticed that the A’s had beaten the Twins and that the Cardinals were up on the Padres. But wait.. the score said 1-0 in favor of the Cards.. but I had also seen the score at CNNSI.com and they said it was 5-1. What gives? I click on the Yahoo sports link and I come across this boxscore for the Cards/Padre’s game.

Yes it says 1-0 … but notice the # of hits for both teams. Cards have 33 hits and the Padre’s have 11 hits. WHAT THE!?!??!?!

So I scroll down some more and man.. the entire play by play is royally screwed up. Here’s a snapshot of that:

Wow.. someone had some server issues today eh? It’s a good thing I looked at cnnsi also… and I found out that the Cards did indeed beat up on the Padres. Good… don’t want to worry about Jake Peavy and the Padres for the league championship series either!
