Pick ya’ Poison: MLB vs NFL
Posted on 14 Sep 2012 by Steven Keys.
Summer’s on the wane and there’s a nip in the nighttime air. That means three things: school is back in session, baseball is heating-up and the pigskins are flying. It’s a heady time for fans of America’s two favorite sports. Richard Kimble (The Fugitive) knew the score: “So, what are you, a football player, baseball player?,” asked the good doctor / janitor as he tweaked the orders...

Yanks Back in the Hunt
Posted on 6 Jun 2012 by Stephanie Geosits.
It's hard to believe it, but the Yankees are just half a game out of first in the AL East. After beating Tampa, courtesy of another strong performance by Ivan Nova, the Bombers find themselves trailing only the Orioles. That's right – Baltimore. The Rays are hanging in as a close third, and the Jays are just 2.5 games behind the leaders. Boston is in last – four games back. How did ...

Oh Captain
Posted on 17 Apr 2012 by Stephanie Geosits.
Never mind teaching an old dog new tricks. Derek Jeter is up to his old ones. The soon to be 38-year-old Yankees shortstop is leading the Bombers regulars in hits (17), batting average (.378) and slugging percentage (.667). He's tied for the most doubles (four) and homers (three). So the news of his demise might have been greatly exaggerated. Last season he hit 24 doubles and six home runs all ...

Swept, A Sweep, and Heading for Home
Posted on 12 Apr 2012 by Stephanie Geosits.
After a fairly atrocious start in which the Yankees were swept by the Rays in a three-game set in Tampa, they rebounded by returning the favor to Buck Showalter's Orioles. With an even .500 record, New York returns to the Bronx for the 2012 home opener on Friday. The usual pomp and circumstance will be on tap, and Jorge Posada will have the honor of throwing out the first pitch. Hiroki Kuroda...

$ports v$ Ecomony – Dollar$ & $ense
Posted on 24 Oct 2011 by Christopher Rowe.
Somewhere between the latest incarnation of SONY Playstation and Star Trek’s Holodeck could be the salvation of our modern economic woes. Trillions and trillions of dollars are spent on the sports industry. $300 million dollar player contracts, multi-billion dollar palaces, billions of public dollars spent to attract and then lose relocated franchises, bidding on Super Bowls to boost the loca...

Yes, Yogi, It’s Over
Posted on 7 Oct 2011 by Stephanie Geosits.
Game 5 of the ALDS did not turn out as the Yankees or their fans had hoped or expected, but when you leave 11 men stranded and can only score on a solo homer and a bases-loaded walk, you probably don't deserve to win anyway. Post-season magic was nowhere to be found in the Bronx as the Tigers defeated New York 3-2. The Yankees out-hit Detroit 10 to eight but certainly not when it mattered. Ivan...

It’s Getting Ugly in the Universe
Posted on 29 Aug 2011 by Stephanie Geosits.
New York has endured a hurricane and an earthquake in the past few days. Some would say that indicates the end of times. Not quite, but it is somewhat symbolic for what the Yankees have been going through – a lot of anxiety, tumult and turmoil. First off, Joe Girardi is NOT in a good mood. Lately he's been jawing at umpires and he was absolutely fuming at how MLB rescheduled the games wit...

Tribe Wins 3 of 4, 1.5 Back
Posted on 19 Aug 2011 by Bradley Ross.
The Indians are on a roll recently. Their record might not fully reflect it but they are playing about as well as any team in the majors. In their last 15 games (since August 1st) they are 9-6. Consider that 10 of those 15 games were against the 3 division leaders in the American League and the first 7 of those were on the road against the 2 toughest of those leaders. The Indians h...

Yankees or Red Sox: Who Wins the AL East
Posted on 10 Aug 2011 by Adrian Fedkiw.
This week on our PSB Baseball radio show I spoke with Brenda Sepanak (Red Sox Writer) and Stephanie Geosits (Yankees Writer) to discuss their recent three game series and what each team must do to win the division. http://www.talkshoe.com/talkshoe/web/audioPop.jsp?episodeId=521659&cmd=apop

100 Games Down, A Long Way to Go
Posted on 26 Jul 2011 by Stephanie Geosits.
The Yankees sit at an even .600 after drubbing the Mariners in game 100. It's respectable, sure, but it's still not good enough for first place, since the Red Sox have a 2-game lead in the AL East. The Bombers have had some great moments, like Derek Jeter entering the 3,000 hit club on a home run in an absolutely perfect day for him. They've also had some disasters – injury-related and in...

Red Sox At The Break On Top
Posted on 15 Jul 2011 by "Baseball Brenda" Sepanek.
I apologize for disappearing the last TWO months. The Bruins fully redirected my focus this spring. Not in my wildest dreams did I expect to be sitting at an ice rink deep into June. I was fortunate to attend Game 7 vs. Montreal, Game 4 vs. Philly, Game 2 vs. Tampa Bay and Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Finals. I got into Game 6 FREE, by being my outgoing self and talking to a stranger next to me at...

Posted on 9 Jul 2011 by Adrian Fedkiw.
In the third inning of Saturday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays, Derek Jeter became one of two players to hit a home run on his 3,000th hit. Wade Boggs is the other.

The Lone Grand Slam In 253 career a...
