Of all the sites on the internet, this is one.
So apparently exciting things do happen at San Diego Chargers games after all. A man who is not being identified has handed over his security guard license, been fired and plead guilty to committing a lewd act in public after being caught on video running through a few plays on the field near a group …

I remember one night listening to a bit of Jays Talk after a game and somebody calling in to ask a question about possibly trading Kevin Gregg. You remember Kevin Gregg, right? He was the closer back in 2010 and somehow managed to save a pile of games even though he was kind of awful. …
During Tuesday night’s St. Louis Cardinals game, a woman in the stands was hit in the arm by a stray bullet said to have been fired from about a mile away. It’s a happening that’s both pretty rare and pretty nuts, but it’s not nearly as nuts as the time a similar thing happened in …
Tropicana Field is a weird place. Outfielders are constantly losing balls in the roof, I’ve seen more than one long delay caused by umpires trying to sort out what is and is not a home run based on which one of those damn rings the ball hit, and now, because of the way it’s designed …
Yesterday marked the 40th anniversary of the day the Toronto Blue Jays played their first game. For trivia’s sake, they beat the Chicago White Sox 9-5, which is a much better start to anything than a lot of expansion teams get. It was also the game that brought us their first ever home run, video …
Many years ago I said my piece about Chris Berman ruining the damn Home Run Derby every year, so needless to say I’m a pretty happy fella having just seen this news. ESPN announced on Thursday that on-air personality Chris Berman will assume a new position for the company after the NFL season. He will …
When you’re a baseball fan, you hear the words Tommy John surgery thrown around a lot. In some ways, you know how major it is. You know about the sometimes years long recovery time and how the success or failure of it quite literally means the world to a pitcher. You’ve seen how some guys …

Enjoy this. We won’t be seeing it in Toronto until the Indians come to town to beat the hell out of us. I don’t want to sit here and take a dump all over a still fairly new front office’s process and vision until I see what happens on the field this year (the first …
A few weeks ago, Steve and I went to another Blue Jays game, one of the last games of the season. That was a fun game to watch. But the reason I’m writing about it is because we learned about a service offered by the Rogers Centre that’s pretty cool, and I wish it was …

This is fun…unless you’re an Orioles fan, I suspect. It’s the sound of Edwin Encarnacion’s walk-off home run at the end of last week’s Wildcard game as heard live at the Dome, on ESPN’s Spanish feed, TBS, WJZ Baltimore, RDS (the French equivalent of TSN) and The Fan 590 Toronto. Based on this, I think …
