Tinker to Evers to Chance (album)
''Tinker to Evers to Chance'' is a compilation album of songs by Game Theory, released in 1990. The liner notes describe the included tracks as songs which "reached national obscurity, as opposed to local obscurity." Band leader Scott Miller went on to form The Loud Family.
The album's title refers to the poem "Baseball's Sad Lexicon," and also suggests the band's penchant for tinkering and allowing seemingly random elements into their work. The cover image adds visual puns on the title, featuring a piece from a Tinkertoy set ("tinker"), a stopwatch ("evers"), and a die ("chance").
==Critical reception==
The ''Chicago Tribune'' wrote in 1990 that ''Tinker to Evers to Chance'', while displaying all of Miller's shortcomings during the band's "seven-year history of obscurity", also made a "powerful case" that Game Theory had been "unjustly overlooked."〔 Citing songs such as "the jangly, angst-ridden '24,' the lush 'Regenisraen' and the soaring 'Room for One More, Honey'", critic Mark Caro wrote that Miller "covers heart pains and dissatisfaction with a liveliness and playfulness missing from other literate popsters", displaying "an instinctive feel for pop hooks and textures, and his ambition often pays off, allowing him to hit climaxes like the acoustic guitar rush that elevates 'Throwing the Election' after you'd have thought the song was over."
