Stat Line Of The Night

The Stat Line of the Night — 7/6/10 — Johan Santana
The Mets have had their ups and downs this season, but it seems as though every time Johan Santana takes the mound, the Mets bats go silent. He is sporting a 3.15 ERA with a measly .239 batting average against him, however he was only 5-5 going into last night’s game. Santana didn’t need any [...]

The Stat Line of the Night — 7/5/10 — Carlos Quentin
Carlos Quentin has struggled at the plate a bit this season. He’s also struggled in the field for most of his career. The one thing that has never been lacking for Quentin is power numbers, and last night was no different. The big difference last night was that he also got it done with his [...]

The Stat Line Of The Night – 7/4/10 – Drew Stubbs
It was the fourth of July, and while the fireworks were not expected to fly until later on in the night, the Cincinnati Reds had other ideas as they would put on an air show of their own. And leading the charge would be center fielder Drew Stubbs. On a day when the Reds combined [...]

The Stat Line of the Night – 7/1/10 – Trevor Cahill
Oakland A’s starting pitcher Trevor Cahill has been one of the top starters in the American League this season. Wait — who? Trevor Cahill, Oakland A’s. Still not ringing a bell? No, not the guy that threw the no-hitter and cussed out A-Rod earlier this year. That was Dallas Braden. I’m talking about Trevor Cahill. [...]

The Stat Line of the Night – 6/30/10 – Vladimir Guerrero
Vladimir Guerrero must have found himself The Hot Tub Time Machine. In 2010 he’s been partying like it’s 1999. Last night the Texas Rangers were in L.A. to take on the Angels, and Vlad went off on his old team. With the Rangers down 3-0 in the fourth inning. Vlad stepped up to the plate [...]

The Stat Line of the Night — 6/29/10 — Albert Pujols
Albert Pujols is one of the best players in the league and some would say one of the best players of all-time. It would be a tough thing to argue against, as Pujols has consistently hit his way to the top of the leaderboards and kept his team competitive even when all has seemed lost. [...]

The Stat Line of the Night – 6/28/10 – Michael Bourn
It’s been a lousy year for the Houston Astros and their fans. The ‘Stros are only above the lowly Pirates in the NL Central, one of baseball’s weakest divisions. But last night their fans were treated to some exciting baseball, and a come from behind win. They were down 4-0 after 2 and 5-2 after [...]

The Stat Line of the Night — 6/27/10 — Jon Lester
Jon Lester of the Boston Red Sox did a little bit of everything last night to help his team defeat former Cy Young Award winner Tim Lincecum and the San Francisco Giants. The victory gave the Red Sox the series advantage, but it wasn’t easy. After only 3 days in San Francisco, the Sox lost [...]

The Stat Line of the Night – 6/24/10 – Dustin Pedroia
The Boston Red Sox and Colorado Rockies met up in Denver for a rematch of the 2007 World Series. Dustin Pedroia remembered how much he loved the thin air after having the game of his life. The 2008 AL MVP had a staggering stat line and led the Red Sox to a 13-11 extra-inning win, [...]

The Stat Line of the Night – 6/23/10 – Cliff Lee
The Seattle Mariners welcomed the Cubs into Safeco Field for Wednesday night’s game. It’s the Cubs — which team wouldn’t want to see them in the visiting clubhouse? Cliff Lee was taking the bump amidst more trade rumors. Seriously — why do we keep hearing about teams wanting to trade this guy? Lee demonstrated yet [...]

The Stat Line of the Night — 6/22/10 — Jamie Moyer
Jamie Moyer continues to impress baseball fans around the country, just like he did as a rookie in 1986. Yeah, 1986. The crafty left-hander has been pitching in the Major Leagues for 25 years. He will be turning 48 at the end of this season, but he is still extremely effective as he proved in [...]
-
The Stat Line of the Night – 6/21/10 – Justin Upton
Justin Upton has struggled a bit this season early, and so have his Diamondbacks. Coming into last night the Arizona Diamondbacks were last place in the NL West and beginning a series with the Yankees that seemed sure to end badly for them. Upton had other plans, however, and Arizona was able to overcome the [...]
-
The Stat Line of the Night — 6/20/10 — C.C. Sabathia
C.C. Sabathia had a pretty bad May. For most pitchers, a 1-2 record and a 5.15 ERA wouldn’t have been catastrophic for a month, but the expectations for the former Cy Young award winner are a bit higher. Things did not look to get any easier this month, with C.C. facing both Johan Santana and [...]

The Stat Line of the Night – 6/17/10 – Ron Artest
Ron Artest thanked pretty much everyone he knows in his post-game interview, including his psychiatrist. He had reason to be so giddy and excited — he just won his first NBA championship and he was the player of the game. Artest kept the Lakers in the game when Kobe and Pau Gasol were ice cold [...]

The Stat Line of the Night – 6/16/10 – Scott Baker
The Twins opened Target Field this year after almost 3 decades in that hefty bag known as the Metrodome. I think it’s safe to say that the Twins like their new ballpark. The Twins welcomed the Colorado Rockies to town for some interleague play and the new stadium was packed to capacity. The fans didn’t [...]
