My subscription to @stathead.com renewed again today. I’ve been a subscriber for (at least) 18 years now, back when the @baseball-reference.com home page looked more like this, and it’s still worth every penny. And yes, I just clicked through to Rickey Henderson’s page and it’s still awe-inspiring.

The Washington Capitals have scored 15 goals over their last two games—that's their most in ANY two-game span since 2003. 🔥 🔗 stathead.com/tiny/JKn5J

If my @stathead.com search is accurate (and I have no reason to think it is not), Kansas' 91-57 loss at Brigham Young is its most lopsided regular season loss since Dec. 23, 1974 (100-63 at Kentucky). Jayhawks did lose by 34 to Southern Cal in an NCAA second round game in 2021.

Alex Bregman and Anthony Rendon are each at the top of the other's Similarity Scores list. Here's their head-to-head @stathead.com @baseball-reference.com Versus Finder comparison.
