AT the start, I need to clarify two things. First, the word "at," which you see at the beginning of the last sentence, is fully capitalized because I wanted to give this post (as opposed to "poast," which directly relates to turkey 'cause it's spelt like ...

One could call this game The Bill Buckner & Mookie Wilson Future Card Show Appearance Game. In other words, it was Game 6 of the 1986 World Series . Note this followed Game 5 of the 1986 ALCS , in which the Angels Donnie Moore gave up a game-tying home run to Dave ...

Imagine you were a little kid and one day you realize your dad is more than just a regular dad, he's a Major League Baseball player. Now imagine that he's not only a player, but he's also pretty good. And interestingly, his brother is also a big leaguer. It's totally natural ...

This morning Ray, Sheridan and I went out for breakfast. We have a place we love to go and eat. We're regulars, sort of like we are three Norms from Cheers. It's a great cafe we love to eat at. read more

"Jimmy!" You say my name cautiously, as if you are unsure if it's me you're yelling at or a slice of uncooked bacon (applewood). "The title. Of this post? You didn't capitalize the O or T in the words On and To. Why, Jimmy? Why?" read more

She's a mother. She's a singer. She's well educated. And she's baseball wife. Who is she? The lady in question is Raquel Aurilia . And she's very nice. You'd like her. "But, Jimmy, how do we get to know a dame like that?" you ask, ...

Just a regular game in 1983. Reliever Mike Armstrong got the win. Dan Quisenberry got the save. Game-winning home run by George Brett in Yankee Stadium. Only Brett got ejected after the home run, as did manager Dick Howser, coach Rocky Colavito and pitcher Gaylord ...

I've been alive forever and I wrote the very first song. I put the words and the melodies together, but asked Raquel Aurilia to do the singing. Why? Because she's pretty good. read more

Steve Bartman interferes and he's crucified. Young Jeffrey Maier does it and he's praised. See what a home crowd can do? In Game 1 of the 1996 ALCS, 12-year old Jeffrey Maier reached over the right field wall to seemingly grab a Derek Jeter ball from landing in the glove of ...

Bartman. Could be the name of a superhero, maybe animated from The Simpsons. Could be a guy who runs San Francisco train service. It could be a guy you know named Bart who just fixed the copy machine, saving the staff 2 days of having to wait for a repair guy to come and not ...

Lists. That's a great thing about sports; about baseball. You can come up with Top 10 lists about anything, from Top 10 pitchers of all-time to the Top 10 hitters of all-time to the Top 10 Yankees teams of all-time. There are lists about Hispanic players, the hotness of ...

Funny how little there is "pure" baseball talk here on this site. Wait. Does that make sense? I'm re-reading. I meant - and mean - this: Isn't it funny that this is a baseball website and we don't talk much about baseball? My explanation is that yes, ...
