The Stat Line Of The Night — 4/25/11 — Ian Kennedy
Heading into yesterday’s game against the Arizona Diamondbacks, the Philadelphia Phillies were supposed to have a significant advantage in the pitching department as they sent Cliff Lee to the mound. Lee would go on to allow four earned runs over seven innings, but he was clearly the second best pitcher in this game. As for [...]

Indians Mascot Slider Gets Dry-Humped By A Fan (Video)
Mascots always seem to have their way with the fans, but here is one case of a fan having his way with a mascot. I’m not quite sure if mascots are protected under the sexual assault laws in Cleveland, but if they are, this drunk Indians fan could find himself doing some hard time for [...]

Old Lady Catches Home Run Ball, Forced To Throw It Back (Video)
It was great to see the joy on the face of this elderly female Rangers fan after she caught a home run ball at the game last night. Unfortunately, that home run came off the bat of an Anaheim Angels player, and as the unwritten rules of Rangers Ballpark state, “no fan is permitted to [...]

The Stat Line Of The Night — 4/18/11 — David Price
The Tampa Bay Rays struggled out of the gate this season, losing their first six games and eight of their first nine, but they have since turned things around, and entered yesterday’s game against the Chicago White Sox with a 6-9 record. David Price’s season can be described in a much similar manner – seven [...]

Can Someone Explain To Me What Justin Verlander Was Thinking Here? (Video)
With a runner on first and no outs in the bottom of the fifth inning during Saturday’s game against the Oakland Athletics, the mind of Tigers pitcher Justin Verlander seemed to be thinking “pickoff attempt,” while his body was thinking “pitch to home plate.” What would ensue appeared to be a hybrid of both, as [...]

Royals Grounds Crew Member Gets Flattened By Tarp During Rain Delay (Video)
As fun as it may look getting to roll out the tarp on a Major League Baseball field during a rain delay, it is no easy task. Things can get dangerous on that slick field, and before you know it, you could be flat on your face getting steamrolled by a giant metal cylinder. This [...]

Watch Tim Lincecum Pitch In Slow Motion (Video)
Not many people realize the amount of strain and torque a pitcher puts on his body with each pitch he delivers towards home plate. It may look simple, but each pitch must be delivered with the proper precision in order to maintain pinpoint accuracy and avoid injuries. Few know this better than two-time Cy Young [...]

The Stat Line Of The Night — 4/12/11 — Dan Haren
The Cleveland Indians have seemed almost unstoppable thus far through the opening two weeks of the MLB season, but they simply couldn’t find an answer to the Angels’ Dan Haren last night. Haren entered the game with an impressive 1.23 ERA. We would leave with a remarkable 0.73 ERA, thanks to a complete game on-hit [...]

Joe Maddon Explodes, Ejects Entire Umpire Crew (Video)
Times have been tough for the Tamp Bay Rays through the opening two weeks of the 2011 MLB season. After a successful 2010 campaign that saw them win 96 games before losing in the ALDS to the eventual American League champion Texas Rangers, expectations were high heading into this season, but the Rays have managed [...]

The Stat Line Of The Night — 4/10/11 — Jered Weaver
If Major League Baseball suddenly decided to hand out the AL Cy Young Award only two weeks into the season, their decision probably wouldn’t be a hard one, thanks to the incredible start to the season put together by the Los Angeles Angels’ Jered Weaver. It isn’t often that a single run allowed over eight [...]

Heidi Watney Almost Throws Up After Eating Ballpark Food in Cleveland (Video)
NESN’s Heidi Watney put up a serious struggle against eating a fried chicken and waffle sandwich at Progressive Field during a segment about the “unique food,” which is presumably the only dish Cleveland has to offer the world of cuisine. When Heidi asked the chef how he came up with the dish, he replied, “You [...]

You and the wife/girlfriend/fiancee/significant other are sitting down getting ready to enjoy a night on the couch watching Netflix on your laptop when suddenly you realize that both of you want to watch different programs.

The Boston Red Sox came into this season with the highest of expectations, but they currently find themselves without a win in their first five games.

Perhaps the only thing worse than getting turned down during a jumbotron proposal is having to stand beside your future husband on live television as he tells the world that he expects his wedding to be “the worst day of his life.” Ouch!

Picture Of The Day: Boring Day In The Outfield Ibanez?
One look at the scoreboard would have you thinking that the Philadelphia Phillies’ Raul Ibanez had himself quite the busy day in the outfield last night during a game against the New York Mets. One look at this image, however, would suggest otherwise. I guess we all have a little Al Bundy in us.
