Bucky Launches Homer #2
Bucky Jacobsen reverted to form in last night's game, hitting his second homer of the season. Since the Ducks were playing in Atlantic City, I thought I would put some observations about Bucky's season in some casinoesque terms.
Over/Unders - a number that tells an expected value for a particular event. You can choose to take more (over) or less (under):
Number of Games to 2 Homeruns: Preseason, I would've set it at 8, maybe 10. Last night's game was game #14.
Number of Times Stolen Bases = Homeruns: I would've said 1 - when both totals were at 0. Bucky's up to 3 times so far, having had 0, 1 and 2 homers and swipes at the same time.
Number of Times Stolen Bases > Homeruns: No bets taken since there's no statistic under 0. Bucky's at 1. Until Wednesday night, Bucky had three games where he had two swipes and only one homer.

"When I think of Bucky, I think, "Svelt.""
I was going to say, "Gesundheit!"
