It was announced today that MSNBC anchor, SABR
member, and all-around baseball fanatic, Keith Olbermann will tell
the inside story of three decades' worth of Topps proof cards in a five-part, serialized feature to debut with the May 30 issue of Sports Collectors Digest on newsstands May 15. Readers will be treated to a narrative of nearly 30 years of baseball card lore told by Olbermann, an ...
Well done.
About two months ago, I wrote a short
article for Chicago Sports Weekly about the lack of
non-white pitchers in baseball's 300 Win Club. While the bulk of the piece focused on past players such as Ferguson Jenkins and Bob Gibson who hadn't reached ...
A 13-1 blowout can lead to some hand-wringing,
excitement or hyperbole. After the Red Sox decimated the
Rockies in Game One, here are what some of the nation's sportswriters had in their minds.
The Oakland A's honored Vida Blue, Mike Norris,
Jim "Mudcat" Grant, and Dave Stewart: four of the
13 African American 20-game winners in Major League history.

Another round is in the books in the
Baseball Fan's Hall of Fame voting. After this round
of voting we have our seventh member to be elected unanimously and our fourth pitcher to be elected in the person of Bob Gibson. Today we add Lefty Gomez, Goose Goslin, and Frank Grant to the ballot (in the right sidebar).
On Wednesday night I had the distinct pleasure
of taking part in the St. Louis Cardinals season
ticket holders appreciation night. Exactly what does this mean? It meant that my Dad and I along with the rest of our season ticket crew headed over to St. Louis for the night. The entire event was basically a marketing ploy by management to show just how great the Cardinals were
Bob Gibson is without a doubt one of
the most talented pitchers to grace the sport, his
fastball was ethereal and his pacing methodology revolutionary. Throughout Gibson's career he relied heavily on his fastball, and so it comes as no surprise that ...
More so that any other sport baseball is
known for its history. Fathers and sons have bonded
for centuries over the trivialities of the game. Many-of-afternoons I sat and listened as my grandfather told folktales about the great Stan Musial, while my father argued that Bob Gibson would have owned him. Being a curious kid I thumbed through my Baseball Almanac and realized how good ...
Great discussion of Bob Gibson's World Series history-especially
why he is almost the best World Series player
ever.

I'm inspired this morning. You see, I had
the privilege of snagging an advance copy of Neyer's
new book, Rob Neyer's Big Book of Baseball Legends: The Truth, the Lies, and Everything Else , and I finished it just last night. I'll have a full ...
I wonder how significant of an achievement this
really is when you consider that guys like Gaylord
Perry and Phil Niekro, who were not exactly flame throwers, are part of this club? And that it took 51 years for someone (in this case, Bob Gibson) to join Walter Johnson, with 14 more to follow in less time. Should this in any way diminish...
Check out Costas Now when you get a
chance. Great show about the state of baseball is
airing the next week or so. The best part of the show was the exchange between Hank, Willie and Bob Gibson...
The on-going series.

"It's sad that a man of Roger Clemens'
reputation and qualifications would have this analysis published," said
Bunning, a Republican senator from Kentucky. "Clemens should have the opportunity to prove his innocence, but he's going about it in a very ...
Mike Mussina pitched seven strong innings and moved
