So You Think You Are A NERD

In 1968 I actually kept score (on an actual scorebook that I had when I could pick up the A's on the radio in Iowa) of the Oakland Athletics/Minnesota Twins game on the the RADIO.
That night Catfish pitched a perfect game. Still have it the scorebook.

Can anyone top this?

When I was a kid I was so bored that I would look at Sunday's paper that had all the batting stats for every player in MLB and I would try to guess the batting average of a player using the At Bats and Hits. I would look at another player's stats and interpolate the numbers.

One day in 1990, I believe, I had to drive back to college from my hometown. It was about a three hour drive. I intentionally left at the beginning of the Cincinnati Reds game so I could listen to it on the radio. Tom Browning took a ho-hitter into the 9th, but lost it to the lead-off batter. I was so jazzed up after the 8th, I was honking my horn driving down Interstate 75.
