The MLB scoreboard is completely dark today. There are no games on the schedule, which means there are no matchups, probable pitchers, innings or final scores to break down. I’m not going to manufacture drama where the board gives us none. Instead, this is one of those rare baseball Sundays when the silence itself becomes the story. Every club is off, every ballpark is quiet, and The Daily Diamond Show gets to take a breath from pitch-by-pitch action. So if you came looking for a late result or a game to circle tonight, there isn’t one. The clean read is the honest read: Major League Baseball has no scheduled action on Sunday, November first. We’ll use that open space to look backward at one of the sport’s foundational builders, then turn forward to an awards question that deserves a serious rethink. Did You Know? On September 28, 1919, the New York Giants defeated the Philadelphia Phillies 6-1 in 51 minutes, the fastest nine-inning game in Major League history. Dean's Take: Expand Cy Young Award ballots from five pitchers to ten Everything Baseball. Every Day. Every Era. — Baseball Nation Network
