Well, the Rays won last night in a long, ugly, but exhilarating game in the Tropicana Dome. The game didn't end until long after 1am, as B.J. Upton plated Fernando Perez -- who was even gutsy for even attempting to score -- on a sacrifice fly to end the contest. Dustin Pedoria -- all ...

The other day, I had gone to get an eye exam and I had an interesting conversation with doctor about baseball – specifically, the Baltimore Orioles. I took part of the day off, decided to dress casual that day and wore a throwback Orioles cap (the one they wore in the late 60’s/early 70’s). Long ...

Wow. Philly fans are rough, and boy did it sound like they skewered Republican Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin badly... PHILADELPHIA - To a mixture of boos and cheers, Republican vice-presidential candidate Sarah Palin dropped the ceremonial first puck Saturday night at the ...

Last night, I spent much of it flipping between the games along watching the political news on TV. Well, the baseball on the air has been somewhat compelling so far, and it is fascinating to see what has come about so far. The first game, which featured the Philadelphia Phillies versus the Los ...

I'm disgusted with the ugly political tactics I have seen as of late. I have always been fascinated with the whole spectacle -- from both sides of the aisle -- however, what I been witness to this week on TV, on the net and what I have seen from pundits has been nothing short un-American. The ...

Last night, the Dodgers and Phillies played game one of the NLCS and everything came down to a fateful sixth inning. Los Angeles went up 2-0 in the top of the first inning, thanks to Manny Ramirez -- again -- with an RBI double; thereafter, Blake DeWitt plated Matt Kemp with an RBI. Derek Lowe ...

The 2008 playoffs resume tonight as game one of the NLCS is played in the City of Brotherly Love. Manny Ramirez and the Dodgers take on the Phillies; thus, for me, although I am a fan of the Orioles, the NL style of baseball appeals to me a lot more. That being said, I am very interested to see ...

Yes, America -- the Rays are in the ALCS. After a decade losing and just plain awful teams, they are one step closer to the World Series; however, they've got to get through the Evil Empire 1A, the Red Sox. Tampa clinched a ticket to the playoffs as they beat the White Sox, 6-2, thanks a strong ...

Well, I spent another afternoon of watching tons of playoff action – um, actually, between flipping channels to catch some football (especially the ‘Skins) and HBO’s ‘True Blood’ – the games were must wins for three teams. Obviously, as you know, they were the Brewers, White Sox and Angels. Two ...

Oh Cubs fans, my lord. How could Chicago's finest not put up a fight against the Dodgers -- a team that only finished with 84 wins? Harden was shaky in the first few innings, and for the most part did his job; however, the Cubs could not hot or draw anything when they were in scoring position; ...

Well, yesterday brought us more baseball -- this time, exclusively AL -- as the Division Series continued on Friday. I got home from work, and aside from talking to people off and on throughout the night -- it was all baseball, even doing cardio on my stationery bike. The first game featured the ...

I didn't even know he was in legal trouble -- again. From CNN: Former gridiron great O.J. Simpson was found guilty of all 12 counts in the armed robbery of two sports memorabilia dealers at a Las Vegas, Nevada, casino hotel last year. Simpson, 61, and his co-defendant Clarence "C.J." ...

Since I have now amassed an interesting and
plentiful inventory of pictures, I have decided on doing
a new daily feature on the Oriole Post -- Photo(s) of the Day. I have no idea what I am going to do with this, but for now I'm going to stick with ...
Sorry I have not had much time to write, but I was down in Tampa yesterday watching the Rays-White Sox and spent some of the evening coming home. Anyhow, the biggest surprise to me has been how bad the Cubs have really played. Right now, it looks like they are done unless they can somehow win ...

Daniel Cabrera. The sound of his name either makes you wince, groan, or yell expletives. For years, we have been looking forward to him seeing the light and perhaps becoming a dominant majoe league pitcher; however, after a promising April and May, his whole season basically has gone to well — ...

For the past week, I have heard a
lot of talk on Mike Mussina and his free
agency. Right now, in the position he's in, he can opt to join another team, or ride into the sunset and retire. The man won his 20th game on Sunday -- for the first time ...

To start today's post off, I am pissed off and let's say a tad concerned that my bank Wachovia FSB, has been merged with Citigroup (of course ALL bad news is announced on a Monday) due to the on going financial crisis. Do you think I feel better about the state of the United States economy? God ...

The 2008 season is over and the Orioles had another uninspired loss -- their 25th in their last 30 games -- as they lost 10-1 to the Blue Jays. Guthrie came back and was not sharp; however, the bullpen was worse as they gave up seven unanswered runs. It was more badness upon more badness, and ...
