Braves 4-2 on West Coast
Posted on 30 Jun 2011 by John Morgo.
Since these games were on the far outpost of Seattle, and I had to work most of the time, I trusting reliable sources to inform you that the Braves did in fact sweep the Mariners, and now own a record of 47-35. (Hmm, that adds up to 82, which is just on the other side of half of 162, and you see where I'm going.) Seattle could only scratch out eight runs during the set, but Atlanta plated 13, a...

Baseball’s Midseason Awards
Posted on 27 Jun 2011 by Michael Waterloo.
It seems like just yesterday I was typing up my preseason predictions for the upcoming baseball season. It's hard to believe that we are already at the halfway point. Who says that the baseball season is too long? As per usual with baseball, this season is full of unpredictability and surprises. We've seen two no-hitters within one week to make this the year of the pitcher 2.0, a home ...

Only One
Posted on 25 Jun 2011 by Chris Tolbert.
The Giants just need to be up by one run and instantly they win. No its not that simple but it seems to be that simple. The Giants have won one run games quite unusual in most cases but today's case may just be the one that takes the cake. Tony Sipp, the Indians reliever balked in the winning run with the bases loaded in the seventh inning of today's heated struggle with the Cleveland Ind...

Those mavericks from Anaheim handled Florida, and the heat too.
Posted on 24 Jun 2011 by Bill Mahoney.
The Angels finished their road trip with a 6-3 record. They took 2 of three from Seattle, NY Mets and the Florida Marlins. They didn't have many blowouts, but they still won. I was a little worried about the 3 games against the Marlins. The Marlins have been horrible throughout June, losing 18 of 19 games, including 10 straight before the Halos came to town. After Edwin Rodriguez resigned, the ...

Posted on 22 Jun 2011 by Ben Fisher.
What Happened There was certainly no ‘O’ in ‘Blue Jays’ (36-39) in the team’s trio of losses at Atlanta’s Turner Field. Braves pitching held Toronto bats to just two runs over the three-game set (the Jays have now scored three runs over their last four games). A Closer Look Romero’s Right to Be Frustrated: Even if Ricky Romero had taken unneeded pot shots at his teammates in criti...

Posted on 17 Jun 2011 by Chase Smith.
In the MLB, there are two different types of teams; there are the big-market teams like the Yankees, Phillies, and Cardinals that spend hefty amounts of money in the free agent market, acquiring names like C.C. Sabathia, Cliff Lee, Derek Jeter, and Albert Pujols. However, on the other side there are the smaller-market teams like the Royals, Pirates, and the Mariners that, while they do not enga...

Angels get Twin victories in the Twin cities
Posted on 29 May 2011 by Bill Mahoney.
The Twins may have the worst record in baseball, but for all intents and purposes, the Angels were fortunate to escape with even one win. Today was no different than the first two games, as Minnesota battled the Angels down to the final at bat. The series was a success for the starting pitchers. Who is the ace of the staff, Jered Weaver or Dan Haren? Haren and Weaver have comparable stats. Thes...
