Every weekend throughout the regular season, we open the doors of the ‘Pit to any member as a guest recapper, who can cover the game from their own unique perspective. You do the recap of the game in the Feed, however you want. It can be light-hearted or not; stats-heavy or not, detailed or atmospheric – it’s all about your own voice. One of the editors then takes it, adds the bells and whistles like roll-calls and Fangraphs and it will appear on the front page of the SnakePit. We’ll be on hand to help
if you have questions on the day.
This is open to everyone: lurkers, commenters or writers elsewhere on the ‘Pit who fancy their hand at recappage. [It’s how quite a number of regular writers here got their start] The Sunday game will be the default one, though it may change, as last month with the SF Saturday double-header. To sign up, just post a comment, with the date of the game you want to cover. When I spot them, I’ll cross the games off the list. You’ll then get an email, a day or so before, with details. If you haven’t done it before, you need to reply at that point, confirming you’re still up for it. I tend to have more faith in repeat recappers!
It’s the final month, and there are some choice fixtures in the playoff push, including the very last game in the regular season. Maybe everything will be decided that day… or it could be utterly meaningless. Do you feel lucky? Well, do ya? Anyway, here’s the schedule…
- Sun, Sep 6 @ Houston, 11:10 AM
- Sun, Sep 13 vs Texas, 1:10 PM
- Sun, Sep 20 vs NY Yankees, 1:10 PM
- Sun, Sep 27 @ San Diegom 12:10 PM
