Mr. Smith Goes to Palookaville
Posted on 1 Mar 2013 by Steven Keys.
“Babe Ruth is the biggest runner-up in history.” That’s what the man said, Babe Ruth, a runner-up. Words from the mouth of sport opinionator Stephen A. Smith last Monday co-hosting with Skip Bayless on ESPN’s hip-hoppin’ morning show “First Take.” I don’t take-in “First Take” but rarely these days, having been a regular until producers decided the popular show needed fixing ...

MLB 2013 Wish List
Posted on 11 Dec 2012 by Steven Keys.
Dear Santa, I know December’s a crazy time for you, especially with new super-shops in Costa Rica, Estonia and Dandong (China) churning out the goodies at record pace, but it won’t take a minute to read my list. Besides, these wishes are for the good of the game, so do what you can, Santa my man. Old Time Baseball Wish # 1: More Mike Trouts In the aftermath of one of the most hotly debated ...

DayGame World Series, Sir Selig?
Posted on 26 Sep 2012 by Steven Keys.
If you’re reading this you’re a sports fan and know all about ESPN’s college “GameDay.” It’s not my cup o’ tea (that outdoor-set, with its screaming fans, really red-lines my annoying-meter), but the name, that works just fine. So, for purposes of this baseball piece, just flip that title and make it DayGame World Series 2013. That’s my dream, anyway. It’s been over a quarter-...

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...

From The Stretch: Why The Giants Should Be Worried
Posted on 13 Sep 2012 by Connor Callaghan.
Last night the San Francisco Giants distanced themselves from the second place Dodgers by seven games, a season high. Things are looking up for the city by the bay as their remaining games are all against division rivals under .500, with the exception of a three game series in LA (74-69) to finish off the season. The Dodgers have a much tougher schedule having to face the Cardinals, then a late...

Barry, JoePa & Record Books
Posted on 20 Aug 2012 by Steven Keys.
It’s not everyday you read something good about the NCAA. Mind you, I’ve got no major gripe with the landlord of college athletics. Not too happy about their cozy relationship with profiteers (Nike) and relaxation of player-standards in recent decades, but other than those two, most of what they do flies above my radar. The NCAA is like your high school VP, a dirty job but someone’s gotta...

MLB Looking Out For The New York Yankees
Posted on 3 Aug 2012 by James Beck.
As a blogger I have to be fair to all teams. All because I have to be doesn't mean M LB thinks that way. The New York Yankees are the perfect example. The Yankees have been protected for years from the early 90′s to the present day. From the pitching staff getting all the calls to all other pitching staffs. To a certain pitcher throwing a bat at another player and didn't get suspende...

Today Begins To Shape The New York Mets
Posted on 31 Jul 2012 by James Beck.
It is time to stop shopping bargain basement for Sandy Alderson. It's time for the Mets to make a move for a real big time player. No more 2013-2014, start building now show David Wright there's a reason to stay. And get this straight I'm not talk about no relief pitcher. I'm talking about a big time bat or even a center fielder. A real lead off man that moves Tejada into the 2...

Cleveland “squeeze” a win over Detroit, Does this mean there a chance of Playoffs??
Posted on 25 Jul 2012 by Luke Lovekin.
Cleveland managed to pull a proverbial rabbit out of the hat today against Detroit to come away with the spoils. The scorebook will say the score was 3 – 2 in favour of the Tribe today and Joe Smith takes the win and Doug Fister charged with the loss but those who watched today will tell a slightly different story. Ubaldo Jiminez pitched 6 scoreless innings today in one of his better showin...

From The Strecth: Lincecum Spoils Again, What’s Next?
Posted on 8 Jul 2012 by Connor Callaghan.
Once again Tim Lincecum is out early. The two-time Cy Young winner can't make it out of the 4th after giving up six earned runs in 3.1 innings. He also left the bases loaded for his replacement, Clay Hensley, with only one out. The final straw came when Lincecum allowed an RBI single to the Pirates pitcher A.J. Burnett with the bases loaded to make it 4-0 Pirates. The game is now 13-2 heading i...
