    Two of the hottest teams in the Majors hooked up last night in Texas as the Rangers hosted the streaking Detroit Tigers.  With the Cleveland Indians slumping as of late, the Tigers have managed to climb right back into the hunt for top spot in the AL Central, and they gained some more ground last [...]

    After getting off to a scorching start to the 2011 MLB season, many pitchers have decided to pitch around the Blue Jays’ Jose Bautista and take their chance on whoever is hitting behind him in Toronto’s lineup.  Yesterday afternoon it was Adam Lind hitting behind Bautista, and he made the Baltimore Orioles pay for trying [...]

    I know that hitting three home runs in a single game is not an easy thing to do, but Major League batters have been making it seem that way recently.  Carlos Beltran, Jose Bautista, Jason Giambi, Corey Hart and Carlos Quentin had all accomplished the feat heading into yesterday’s slate of games. You can now [...]

    The 2011 Stanly Cup Finals features a battle between two of the three nominees for the Vezina Trophy, which is awarded to the NHL’s best goaltender during the regular season.  As a result, many believe that this will be a tight series where goals will be hard to come by.  That was certainly the case [...]

    Entering last night’s game against the Philadelphia Phillies, the Washington Nationals had lost six straight against their division rivals.  They were looking to break out of that losing streak and they did so in a big way, thanks to the hot bat of Danny Espinosa. The Nats’ second baseman terrorized Phillies starter Cliff Lee to [...]

    Whenever Tim Cahill takes the mound, you can expect to be treated to a solid pitching performance.  Yesterday afternoon was no different, but unfortunately for Cahill and the Oakland Athletics, it was the opposing pitcher providing that solid performance this time around. After giving up three runs in the first inning, Cahill was solid the [...]

    Last night the Los Angeles Dodgers sent their ace, Clayton Kershaw, to the mound in an attempt to salvage only their second series win in the month of May.  They had already split the first two games of their three-game set with the Florida Marlins, and a solid outing from Kershaw ensured that they would [...]

    When the 2010-11 NBA season began, most people thought the Miami Heat were a shoo-in to at least win the Eastern Conference title, if not the NBA Championship.  Then they went through several rough patches throughout the season, making many pundits believe that there would be some growing pains and at least a one year [...]

    Heading into Game 6 of the Eastern Conference Finals, much of the focus was on the lack of production from Tampa Bay’s “Big Three” of Martin St. Louis, Steven Stamkos and Vincent Lecavalier.  In their previous three games, they have combined for one goal (an empty netter) and two assists, which is clearly not good [...]

    Hitting three home runs in a single game isn’t supposed to be a common occurrence for Major League baseball players, but that certainly has not been the case in the month of May.  Throughout the past two weeks we have witnessed the Mets’ Carlos Beltran, the Jays’ Jose Bautista, the Rockies’ Jason Giambi, and the [...]

    We could have easily given this “Stat Line of the Night” to “Disco” Dirk Nowitzki for scoring 40 points and dancing all over the Oklahoma City Thunder’s NBA championship hopes last night, but we simply could not ignore the performance put forth by the Milwaukee Brewers’ Corey Hart yesterday afternoon. Hart had yet to hit [...]

    After taking a 2-0 lead in their Western Conference Finals series against the San Jose Sharks, the Vancouver Canucks did not want to return home after yesterday’s game with the series tied up at 2-2.  That meant they would have to put together a spirited performance in Game 4 and they did just that, led [...]

    It has been a while since Jason Giambi’s glory days with the New York Yankees and Oakland Athletics, but for those who are unaware, the 40-year-old is still kicking around the Majors with the Colorado Rockies, and it appears as though he still has some power left in that bat of his. With Todd Helton [...]

    The Cleveland Indians entered last night’s game against the Chicago White Sox swinging some rather hot bats.  They had recorded 26 runs in their previous two games, and had only been shutout once on the year.  You can now make that twice, thanks to a dominating performance from White Sox starter Jake Peavy. The former [...]
