The thing I don't really get is why Utley didn't attempt to move his head at all. He just stood there and took a mid 90s fastball off the back of the head.

Indeed. The Nationals were playing the Braves when Livan threw his 50,000th. Glavine was calling the game. He asked where Smoltz was and the guys from the truck told him 8th. They listed the top 5 with pitch counts which is why I shared those and said that Smoltz was 8th.

Alright.....seems like MLB.com used to show pitch totals by season....but not now. It took me about 20 minutes to total Kevin Brown.

I think I tried looking them up on Baseball Reference when I posted that but didn't find anything unless I went into the individual game logs. I did add up Glavine's post season pitches but don't recall what the total was.

He said something like he thought it was going to go well above his head. If you watch the replay he said Wow what just happened after he got hit.

Schmidt was already guessed correctly. You get no credit for that. Stargell is #1 on the list. One more to go.
