Griffey will never break the career home run
record, but it would appear he has one major
edge over Bonds that doesn't show up in the record books: he's reached 600 cleanly.

Colorado, champions of the National League last season,

If you ask me, these NBA playoffs have
become a little too predictable. Like top-tier tennis players
slugging it out, holding serve until the set reaches a tiebreaker, the remaining teams seem invincible on their home courts. When the series swaps cities, though, Dr. Jekyll stays home and Mr. Hyde doesn't seem to travel well.

Is home court a self-fulfilling prophecy?

In 34 games, Houston leadoff hitter Michael Bourn
leads the Majors in stolen bases with 17, but
that's only because he steals just about every time he reaches base. Bourn is hitting .198 with an OBP of .269, and he's tied for 10th in the NL with 33 strikeouts. When will the Astros realize he's hurting more than helping?

Say what you want about Livan Hernandez --
he's pudgy, he's got average stuff, and there's no
way he's only 33 years old -- but the man is an innings eater.

For all his high-ranking Republican friends, Roger Clemens
took a page right out of Bill Clinton's book
Sunday. Clemens issued a heartfelt "no apology" apology to anyone who cared, explaining that he has made "mistakes" but not admitting to any.

Roger Clemens is sorry, but for what?

Without any specific injuries to point to, we
can only assume that the source of Barry Zito's
problems is his mind. And since we can only guess as to what might actually be going on in there, All on the Field takes a look at Zito's wisdom after his starts this season.

In a perfect world, I would have just
finished watching a tightly-contested battle between the nation's #1
and #3 teams, North Carolina and UCLA. Two of the best big men in the country, Tyler Hansbrough and Kevin Love, would fight it out to the end, but my hunch is that the Tar Heels would have prevailed. Does the fact that it would have been for third place really matter?

You can breathe easy now, Mariners fans. Ichiro
managed to get that elusive first hit of spring,
ending an 0-for-21 drought. In typical Ichiro fashion, the ice breaker was a slow grounder to second base that he narrowly beat out at first. He is now batting a mighty .040.

The Phillies set a dangerous precedent when they
voluntarily agreed to pay Ryan Howard $900,000 in a
pre-arbitration season. Now, when other talented players such as Cole Hamels, Nick Markakis, Prince Fielder and Jonathan Papelbon don't receive similar raises, they feel slighted. Or, in Hamels' words, "it's a low blow." But are these youngsters' expectations fair?
