You joke about that. But I heard a story once about Cal Ripken's wife banging Kevin Costner where Ripken found out, got in a fight with his wife, and punched his hotel room wall injuring his hand. His hand was too hurt to play the next day, and there was a mysterious power outage localized to just the immediate area around Camden Yards that night. The game was postponed and Ripken was able to keep his streak alive.
