Having previously reviewed Evers, I might as well make the full double play. Comments to follow in the next 1-3 days; thanks as always for your work on these. -- Khazar2 (talk) 15:23, 19 May 2013 (UTC)
- Great. But the "full double play" would also include the third member of Baseball's Sad Lexicon :P – Muboshgu (talk) 15:32, 19 May 2013 (UTC)
- Don't worry, I snagged 'em both.

- Ha, great! Didn't catch that you claimed Chance too. Take your time, no rushies. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:03, 19 May 2013 (UTC)

Initial comments
On first pass, this looks solid and essentially ready for promotion. The sources are good, the writing is good, and the coverage appears comprehensive. Comparison to this suggests no major aspects are left out here. Thanks as always for your work on these.
I made a few tweaks; feel free to revert any you disagree with. Only one small point I couldn't immediately resolve:
- "Tinker then batted .263 with as " -- is something missing after with (RBIs)? Or just an extra word? -- Khazar2 (talk) 01:22, 21 May 2013 (UTC)
- Good catch. That was supposed to be "Tinker then batted. 263 with a home run as", but then I realized that Tinker's 1908 WS home run was the first under the Brush Rules, which have governed every WS since 1905, and so I gave it its own sentence after that, and left an extra word. – Muboshgu (talk) 01:31, 21 May 2013 (UTC)
- Great--we'll see if we can finish out the double-play with Chance tomorrow, then. Or possibly even tonight, depending on how much the Cards vs. Padres hold my interest... -- Khazar2 (talk) 01:40, 21 May 2013 (UTC)
- Excellent! You found the needle in the haystack then with my one mistake there. Hope the game is a good one, I might check it out after the Yankees game is over. – Muboshgu (talk) 01:46, 21 May 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks, enjoy yours as well -- Khazar2 (talk) 01:50, 21 May 2013 (UTC)
