Deep

It could be argued that Yankee Aaron Judge has been one of the most dominating players in baseball this season. The 25-year-old right fielder uses every inch and ounce of his towering 6′ 7″ and 282 lb. physique to go deep. The proof: 52 regular season home runs and a Home Run Derby trophy to boot. […]

Swift

I don’t typically follow Inktober’s prompt list, but I thought Byron Buxton fit ‘SWIFT’ quite well. Minnesota’s star center fielder is currently one of MLB’s fastest players – according to StatCast™. With speed like that, Bux makes fielding fly balls and line drives look about as effortless as shoe-tying. Offensively, he’s sitting pretty with 28 […]

The Battle Begins

It appears that the Indians have the Cubs in submission. As I write this it’s the top of the seventh inning and Kluber, who managed to strike-out nine, comes out to the relief of Andrew Miller. Indians lead game one of the World Series 3-0.

Cubs Win!

After a record-breaking championship drought, the Chicago Cubs topped the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 6 to secure the NCLS pennant and a berth in the World Series. Synonymous with the Cubs was the late sportscaster Harry Caray, the so-called ‘Mayor of Rush Street’, who added his own brand of color commentary with his signature ‘Holy Cow’ while announcing for the north […]

Not Enough

Well, the Kansas City Royals officially dashed the Minnesota Twins’ dreams for a postseason wild card berth. Hopefully an improved bullpen and more rookie stand-outs like Sano and Rosario will help the Twins go further next year.

Royals Make Giants Look Small

The Series returned to Kansas City tonight – in more ways than one. After three hours and twenty-one minutes of baseball, the Royals shut out San Francisco with ten unanswered runs. Admittedly I felt the Royals would be the underdogs in this contest, but with a fired up hometown crowd, Game 7 will prove to […]

Royals Come Alive

If there were any doubts about whether or not Kansas City belonged in the World Series, Game Two was the litmus test. The Royals erupted last night in a 7-2 victory over San Francisco. The score was stalled at 2-2 going into the bottom of the sixth when a string of KC hits by Butler […]
