VIDEO: Bryce Harper Hits Opening Day Home Run... Again

Bryce Harper sure loves Opening Day. The face of the Nationals took a fastball into the right center field seats for his third career Opening Day home run. Just so you know why we’re making a big deal of this, Harper is only 22 years old and this is only his third time playing on Opening Day. […]

Sooo, It Looks Like The New York Yankees Are Running Out Of Jersey Numbers

Sooo, It Looks Like The New York Yankees Are Running Out Of Jersey Numbers

It must be a tough job to rebuild a team, especially when you don’t have enough jerseys for players to tryout in. Apparently the New York Yankees are encountering a strange problem at spring training this year: they’re running out of jersey numbers. Yes, they are literally running out of numbers to give the players. Seeing how […]

The Los Angeles Dodgers Are Making Me Dizzy With All These Moves

The Los Angeles Dodgers won’t look much like the Los Angeles Dodgers when opening day arrives. On Day 3 of Winter Meetings, the Dodgers decided to make some major moves, reshaping the look of their franchise. Since they missed out on getting Jon Lester, they practically went after anyone else, no matter how old or young. […]

PIC: Jose Canseco Asks Shania Twain To Marry Him On Twitter

Who says that romance is dead? Jose Canseco doesn’t think so. He believes that there’s someone out there for everyone and apparently he thinks Shania Twain and him should be together… forever, according to his tweet today. Canseco has had it rough as of late. First he blows off his finger, then supposedly it fell off […]

VIDEO: Giants Win The World Series, Bumgarner's MVP Ceremony Gets Weird

You know Kansas City Royals’ Alex Gordon is going to work on his cardio this offseason. After all, things might have turned out different had Gordon been just a few steps faster after his deep drive to center field was bobbled. He could’ve tried to run it it all the way home to tie the game […]

Barry Bonds Is Glassing Now, Not Juicing

Barry Bonds Is Glassing Now, Not Juicing

Well, we’re not sure what’s in that coffee cup, but we do recognize what he’s wearing. Apparently it seems Barry Bonds is going from “Home Run Slugger” to “Silicon Valley Tech-Nerd”. Seeing how he’s probably still living in the Bay Area, it’s pretty simple for him to get a pair of Google Glass. I do find […]

VIDEO: Jeter Ends His Hall Of Fame Career With RBI

Well, he didn’t necessarily knock the cover off the ball, but a hit is a hit. Not only did Derek Jeter get a hit in his final at-bat, but he knocked in an RBI… against the Boston Red Sox. You couldn’t have scripted an ending any better than this for the New York Yankees shortstop. […]

Derek Jeter Does It One Last Time At Yankees Stadium

September 26, 2014 By Nick A.

Derek Jeter Does It One Last Time At Yankees Stadium

You knew Derek Jeter’s last game at Yankees Stadium was going to memorable. You just didn’t know how. The future Hall of Fame shortstop ended his last game at Yankees Stadium the only way he knew how: with a game-winning hit. Coming up in the bottom of the ninth, with just one out against the […]

Rain, Rain, Didn’t Go Away, Cost Phil Hughes 500k

Rain, Rain, Didn't Go Away, Cost Phil Hughes 500k

Yep. A little rain cost Phi Hughes a big payday. The Minnesota Twins starting pitcher was set to receive a $500,000 bonus if he reached 210 innings pitched for the season. The thing is, the pitcher’s last outing was called due to a rain delay and he was pulled. So how close did Hughes come to […]

The Orioles’ Chris Davis Is A Freakin’ Superhero

September 16, 2014 By Nick A.

The Orioles' Chris Davis Is A Freakin' Superhero

It’s good to see that Chris Davis is using his time suspended, wisely. Or should I say heroically. The Baltimore Orioles slugger, who’s currently suspended for 25 games, helped to lift an overturned truck off a pinned victim on Monday. Apparently Davis, along with other witnesses, pulled over on a busy highway and helped to […]
