I pay no attention to uniform numbers, so today's was a nonstarter for me (I mean, sure I know the absolute most famous ones, but what's the point of answering the one guy everyone knows wore #7 for the Yankees?).
The Other Grid Game... Crossover Grid
- Thread starter YTF
- Start date
Blue Jays, Twins and Brewers all included on both the Crossover and Immaculate grids today. You can use at least 2 common answers.
I'm losing faith in this game. I actually scored a 9/9 but it doesn't seem to know that Carlos Santana has 300+ home runs.
Yeah, there seem to be some glitches. A few weeks back it rejected Dick Drago as an Angel with more than 300 career relief appearances.
It also struggles to add decimals accurately. The gods of useless baseball knowledge stuck in my head were kind to me today - every square was less than 0.64%. But at the end, when it added up my total score, it awarded me an additional 100 points, so I ended up at 101.79 instead of 1.79. Harumph.

I had to laugh at myself today for trying to get too fancy with obscurish players from a long time ago... confused Admiral Schlei for General Crowder.
I got a rarity score of 14 on the Immaculate Grid today, but this one was more fun. I don't know how I've never thought to use Special Delivery Jones on one of these before. He must qualify for some square at least once a week. The man whose three pitch speeds were slow, slower and slowest and had some great lip foliage.
Agree this one was fun; I got to use two guys who were traded for each other and two guys from Ball Four while keeping it to guys who played in the 70's. This was one of my better CG scores, we used two of the same guys. I should use Doug Jones some time since he got me a lot of saves on my rotisserie baseball team back in the early 90's.
I was worried that answering JR Richard would mess up my good score today... I didn't imagine it would mess it up because the game incorrectly thinks he never had a 12+ K game. He had 20 of them.
This seems to be on an irregular schedule, but today they gave us a pretty easy one (at least for us oldsters). I think 6 is my low score
This game just hates JR Richard. I picked him again today for 1 player 1 team and it counted it as wrong.
