Title: A baseball question Post by: simeon on September 13, 2008, 09:59:39 pm I was watching the RedSox today and they showed the scoreboard for the Yankees and Rays game. To the far left it had a number by each team like it 32 Tampa Bay 34 New york. What do these numbers mean, I have seen this before.

For as long as I can remember I have always wondered what the reason for this was?
Title: Re: A baseball question Post by: StL FinFan on September 15, 2008, 03:35:43 pm I don't know. It's not like I have memorized every pitcher's number from every team, but I would know who is was on my team.
