you are back to the whole, in other words a base 3 number system
instead of base 10?

I was used to 1/3 or 2 2/3 Innings pitched.

Have I screwed this all up?
One out

right? ... when you calculate ERA based on 9 innings. So you gotta use the fractions 1/3 or .333 repeating for outs.

See that is sucky as the anitquated tote board system. Everything based on two dollars, or one dollar depending on what you are looking at, and the the mighty .20 payoff system and oh we can never have odds of 11/3 because Americans dont get fractions.

BTW: has anyone ever seen anything like 11/7? I dont think I have ever seen an 7 as a denominator...

Americans are fine with a 2 as a denominator 9/2 but dont dare put 9/4. Why is it there are some fractions we never see in American racing? Come to think of it I hardly ever see a 3 in the denominator.

So I will review denominators and will humbly ask the board for corrections.

2 fine
3 cant handle (1/3...?)
4 cant handle (1/4? i guess 2/5 is close enough for us?)
5 fine for a numerator of (1,2,3,4 or 9)
6 cant handle
7 cant handle
8 cant handle
9 fine only in 1/9

You're pretty safe now.

They just said, Howell and Percival are not available tonight, so your boys should work what is left of the bullpen over.

Shields has an awesome variety of pitches....

The Cubs are like Big Brown, they are SPENT!! All this talk about how well they are doing, yadda yadda, and they get swept by the Rays. Hopefully they get swept this weekend also so maybe they will wake up

It is just as bad or worse when the Yankees and Red Sox come to town.
