Incredible stat. Either Connie Mack managed the A’s or Vin Scully broadcast the Dodgers every @MLB season for the last 116 years (H/T @espn)

I think Vin Scully is wonderful - but I still prefer Ernie.

Former Angels great Rod Carew set for heart transplant

Hall of Famer Rod Carew, who suffered a major heart attack in September 2015, is set to undergo a heart transplant on Thursday. Carew was also to receive a kidney transplant.

Good luck, Rod.

Texas Man Enters Gum Company's Contest 60 Years Late, Wins Prize

Officials at Bazooka Candy Brands—which is part of The Topps Company, Inc., an American sports company—soon received Day’s submission. After noting he’d answered the trivia questions correctly, the corporation decided to make good on their promise: The baseball fan soon received a phone call informing him he’d won the competition. Along with the baseball glove, Day also received t-shirts, a Bazooka Joe-themed pillow, and—you guessed it—plenty of bubble gum.

Wow....many my age would remember him. Was in the 2nd wave of free agents so made some decent $$ over his career.

Orioles 1st at the end of the Weaver era, then the Angels. Probably 5-6 years with each and a pretty good player with both.

My friend and i just BP. Felt good to poke a few outta there. I'm pretty frickin tired though..took two full rounds. Rounding the balls up afterwards takes a long fuckin time with two people

Did Posey leave his pitcher out to dry on purpose? Sure sounded like it. Good on him. Stupid grudge.

by **WhiteBoyHatcher** 2017-05-29, 23:01

Watching it on Sportcenter, Posey definitely didn't approve. Comments as well. Love it.

I'm starting to really like Bryce Harper. Not only did he kick Strickland's ass, but he told a bunch of little leaguers the other day that participation trophies don't count. The country would be a lot better off with more people like him.

by Guest 2017-06-13, 17:56

Still an amazing run....
