MLB Post Season Report Part 4

Overzealous Umpires are already ruining the 2010 Post Season. Already 2 managers have been thrown out of games, Ron Gardenhire Game 1 Yankees/Twins and Bobby Cox Game 2 Giants/Braves for minor infractions. The Umpires should not be so quick in throwing out Managers in these crucial games. Especially in the Bobby Cox case. The Umps blew a call in Game 1 and he may have been blowing off some steam regarding it in Game 2. For certain the Umps most have seen the replay and know they goofed. In other major sports officials are known to recognize their mistakes and give leeway towards the victimized team.

MLB Post Season Report Part 3

Aces that have pitched like Aces so far.

Roy Halliday-No Hitter

CC Sabathia-Unfortunately came through as usual..On the road to boot, how due the Twins expect to beat him at the non-traditional New Yankee Stadium.

Tim Lincicum-Beat the Braves 1-0.

Derek Lowe-Not necessarily an Ace, although he was a 2004 Post Season Hero, he pitched like one losing to SF 1-0.

Andy Petit- Not an Ace, but pitched very well, when will he get old..

MLB 2010 Post Season Part 2

After watching his AL East Conterparts, the NY Yankees, Boston Red Sox and even the Tampa Bay Rays, make the Post Season on a regular basis one of baseballs best pitchers, Roy Halliday, finally gets his chance today. In a year where he accepted a trade to the Phillies, signed an extension to remain with a contender, threw a Perfect Game and most likely will win his 2nd Cy Young Award Roy Halliday will finally be able to show the world why he has been one of the best for nearly a decade.

MLB Post Season Report Part 1

An example of how greed gives an ugly face to Americas Past Time:
The Ballpark in Arlington (home of the Texas Rangers) has offices/stores that offer a view of the ballpark/game. MLB, not the Texas Rangers, are in charge of Post Season Ticketing and have decided the tenants of these offices/stores will be charged per guest. They figure if you are going to watch the game you should pay like everybody else, even though the leases state the offices/stores are not part of the ballpark.

MLB Should be ASHAMED!!

Cold and down pouring at Fenway Park Friday Night October 1, 2010. Why were the Red Sox so inclined to get the game in and not have a double header on Saturday vs the Yankees? Because MLB had a 4:10 PM game on FOX..On a Saturday that is Prime time for ratings. There was no way FOX would allow the game to be moved to 1:00PM to accommodate a double header. Instead Game 1 started as scheduled at 4:10 PM and Game 2 was scheduled for 9:10PM.. Guess what, Game 1 turned out to be a typically long Red Sox Yankee Game ending at approximately 8:38PM...Good luck emptying out Fenway Park and getting the new crowd in on time...Nice going greedy executives in the Front Offices of MLB and FOX TV!!
