The YouTube gods were treating me, this came up in my feed. I was at this game, in right field as part of Andre's Army.

And no, I don't recall tossing anything (but I was drinking), so maybe?

The sports gods were good to me today.





And a top line pitcher earlier this week.

Does sabotaging the Rockies make Kris Bryant an even greater Chicago Cub?

Rockies don't need his help.

[O Really]

Baseball in the spring is really great. Just like the song.


By the time August rolls around, it wears a bit. On the other hand, it is a unique game that provides a great fan live experience that most other sports don't. Basketball, hockey, soccer, lacrosse, field hockey, rugby - they're really all the same game with different goal sizes and equipment. Baseball is different.

Should have traded him to the Brewers.

Baylor's Armstrong 2nd NCAA player with 3 grand slams in a game

Tyce Armstrong hit three grand slams in his Baylor debut Friday night in the Bears' 15-2 season-opening victory over New Mexico State, becoming just the second college baseball player to accomplish that feat.

"I'm speechless," Armstrong said. "It's the coolest thing I've ever been a part of."

He joins Louisville's Jim LaFountain as the only players with that distinction. LaFountain hit two of his three grand slams in the same inning on March 24, 1976, in the second game of a doubleheader against Western Kentucky. He also hit a two-run homer in the 26-4 victory that was called in the fifth inning.

No Major League Baseball player has hit three grand slams in one game. Thirteen players have had two in a game.

Armstrong, a senior first baseman, transferred from Texas-Arlington, where he had 17 homers and 87 RBIs over three seasons.

He went 3-for-4 with 12 RBIs against New Mexico State....

A bid for the crown?

Padres Attempting Major Position Change With $15 Million Addition
The Friars are hopeful they've found their next super utility player.

The San Diego Padres are attempting to turn $15 million offseason addition Sung-Mun Song into a super utility man this spring.

Song joined the Friars this offseason after spending the first nine seasons of his career overseas in the Korea Baseball Organization. Now, he's looking to make an everyday impact on the Padres roster in his first season playing stateside baseball....

There are only 6 Koreans currently in MLB.


NFL legend Drew Brees is interested in buying MLB team San Diego Padres

It's a 5-group bidding war, so may not happen.

Brees has always seemed like a good guy to me.
