The Batters Eye- Instant Replay 4 J00000010UTC 2009It’s been a while since my last blog post here. I’ve got a few in the works about my travels over the summer to a few different parks and cities, but I could not pass up letting you know my take on instant replay. Over the past several days, the ALDS and NLDS have been taking place. [...]
- Storytellers 4 J0000005UTC 2009This past Tuesday as I was studying for a final, I heard the news that Ernie Harwell passed away. If you watch baseball even remotely, you know who Ernie Harwell is. For those of you that do not, he was the long…long time voice of the Detroit Tigers. For you that do not know, I [...]
- The Art of The Trade 4 J0000008UTC 2009Well the trading deal-line passed a few weeks ago and there were a few big deals. One of the biggest was Victor Martinez for Justin Masterson and others. When I saw that trade go down I was dis-appointed to be honest. I had always liked Justin Masterson. The kid would fit into any role the [...]
- It’s All About What’s Right 4 J0000008UTC 2009The other day I had a meeting at a local bookstore coffee shop. As usual, I was a few minutes early so I decided to look for my next read. Of course I went straight to the baseball books and started to see what was available. I picked up a few books and then I [...]
- Let the Voters Speak 4 J0000008UTC 2009Well over the past few weeks there has been talk in the media that Pete Rose may be reinstated by Major League Baseball. Personally I think this would be a great move. I think public opinion will tell you Pete is one of the most loved baseball players of all time. Not only that, but [...]
- Take Notice 4 J0000007UTC 2009Well as most of you know Manny Ramirez returned to action last night after testing positive for PED’s. He held a press conference before the game fielding questions, but would not answer anything about his positive test. First off, Manny owes it to the fans and his team to answer these questions, just as anyone who [...]
- Love at First Sight 4 J0000006UTC 2009Trying to think back to my first baseball memory the one thought that comes up was either ’85 or ’86 watching the Braves play a double header vs the Reds. One thing I remember was my dad pointing out Pete Rose to me. I just thought that was cool. Living in the south it’s pretty [...]
- Getting in the Groove 4 J0000006UTC 2009As I have had the MLB package for a few years I’ve noticed a lot of different things in the game of baseball. One is which players play every play and which takes a few plays off here and there. I think if we all think we know a few on each list. Also I’ve [...]
- What’s Done is Done 4 J0000006UTC 2009Last week on the 2nd of June, the Yankees were playing the Rangers. Padilla, hit Teixeira in the rear to load the bases. On the next play, A-Rod hit into a ground play. On the play Tex took out Andrus in a hard slide. In unwritten baseball rules the deed was done. Well to AJ Burnett [...]

So, with out further adu here we go. First pitch time is 6:26pm and it’s a strike. Yesterday Tom Glavine was released by the Atlanta Braves. I saw one comment [...]
