I’ve been toying with iOS scorebook software lately, trying to decide how important pencil and paper are to the experience. It’s mostly a lost art anyway so any method I choose is a bit quaint (even digital). But last night I was rewarded for my efforts when Johan Santana pitched the first no-hitter in the New York Mets 8,020 game, 50 year history. The App I use is called Pointstreak K-ForCE and it allows you to generate and email a variety of reports after the game, the type of reports that end up in the Baseball Hall of Fame some day, and I recorded every single pitch. PS: Check out this video of the last pitch and the Amazin’ post game celebration. PPS: Watch Santana fight back tears in this post game interview.

Thanks NPR, but wrong URL. It’s: http://acuppaday.tumblr.com tmagazine: Oliver Strand, T’s resident coffee connoisseur, takes on the 1.5-ounce shot in his most recent Ristretto dispatch. The bird’s eye images of finished espressos are from Mike White’s Tumblr “My Daily Coffee.” Bellissimo! Thanks NPR, but wrong URL. It’s: http://acuppaday.tumblr.com
