Albert Pujols Powers Cardinals to World Series Game 3 Win
2011-10-23 20:41:00 Albert Pujols did his best Babe Ruth and Reggie Jackson imitations in hitting three massive home runs, as the St. Louis Cardinals powered their way to a demoralizing 16 to 7 rout of the Texas Rangers on Saturday. With that performance, Pujols becomes only the third player in major league baseball (MLB) history to hit (Read More...)

World Series 2008: Phillies Power Too Much for Rays Pitching
2008-10-27 13:50:00 Phillies Power Too Much for Rays Pitching Some text from our 2008 World Series Predictions The reason that I don?t like the Rays here is due to the starting pitching match-up… they love to give up the longball, Shields (24 in 215 IP), Garza (19 in 185) and Kazmir (23 in 152).

Phillies Win 2008 World Series Four Games To One
2008-10-27 10:31:00 Good early Monday morning, and this post's title will be the sports headline of Tuesday morning. The Rays have absolutely NO CHANCE of winning it all after losing game four by a score of 10-2. The Phillies lead the Rays three games to one and have a stranglehold on Tampa Bay. They were outpitched, outhit and outplayed in every way. The Phillies have the power and the arms to win it all, and they will. Tonight. So I figured to get a leg up on some other blogs by using that title. It'll be game one pitchers Hamels and Kazmir tonight with the first pitch at 8:29pm EDT. In Boston Red Sox news, Kevin Youkilis has been named the recipient of the 2008 Hank Aaron Award. Could this be a precurser to the MVP? I say yes! Congrats, Kevin. You are an invaluable member of the Red Sox and the powers-that-be should "lock you up" with a long term, lucrative deal. I sure hope so! We all do!!Have a wonderful Monday, enjoy game four tonight live from New York..oops....err, Philadelphia (Saturday Nigh...
What a weekend from Taylor Swift at the World Series to the NASCAR Cup Seri
2008-10-27 01:19:00 In a simple word, column, this weekend I decided to write a simple column on this past weekend this time around, let me know what you think, I believe it really gives my readers a better look at everything though my eyes and that’s what writing is all about...Saying what a weekend seems to be an understand in this day in age depending upon who you are, it seems that on any given weekend you can do, see or watch just about anything and this weekend was not difference.However before the weekend, what headline did I read on Wednesday afternoon from NASCAR PR but Vickers and the #83 Red Bull Team got caught shaving weight? Why doesn’t this surprise me, with the current Cup Series COT and no gray area to work with, NASCAR may be finding more and more teams trying to find that edge to make their cars just a little bit faster, even by a faction of a second, however isn’t there a safety issue with using downgraded sheet metal in the doors and fenders?This is one area of NASCAR and bui...
Phillies Make The Rays Uncomfortable, Take 2-1 Lead in World Series
2008-10-26 17:32:00 It looks like no one in America is really watching this World Series; however, if you're missing it – you're missing some interesting baseball. The Phillies are now up 2-1 in the 2008 World Series as they beat the Rays, 5-4, thanks to a weak infield single – a dribbler along third bases – with the bases loaded by Carlos Ruiz that plated Eric Bruntlett.The frame started as J.P. Howell hit Bruntlett, and then he was relieved of by Grant Balfour. Only a minute later, Balfour would throw a wild pitch and Bruntlett advanced to second. After two intentional walks to both Shane Victorino and Greg Dobbs, the game would end a few minutes later.With the score tied at four, Evan Longoria tried in vain to scoop the ball and throw it home; but the ball sailed over Dioner Navarro's head and Bruntlett tapped home plate.The matchup on Saturday featured the sometimes overly emotional 24-year old Matt Garza versus Jamie Moyer, who should at 45 years old be considered a living legend. The mat...

Phillies Top Rays In World Series Game #3
2008-10-26 09:10:00 The Philadelphia Phillies scored a run in the bottom of the ninth inning Saturday night in Philadelphia and won by a score of 5-4. They took a 2-1 series advantage over the Tampa Bays Rays. Matt Garza was not the unbeatable hurler who the Red Sox saw in game seven of their series, far from it. Tonight's game, again in Phillie, will start at 8:29 pm EDT and feature Sonnanstine against Blanton. Look for Philadelphia to take a commanding 3-1 lead in this soon-to-be over World Series. Hey, my prediction from yesterday was dead wrong so I might as well go out on a limb, WAY out, on this one. The only thing right about my last post was leaving open the possibility of the rain leaving the area sometime before midnight. I nailed that one and the game started with only an hour plus delay. The Rays probably wish it had continued to pour. And pour. And keep pouring.In Red Sox news, right now there isn't much. Little whispers about possible free agent intentions are just that, very soft, almo...
Tampa Bay Takes World Series Game Two Over Philadelphia...Sox To Pursue Fre
2008-10-24 11:22:00 There is much on our Friday plate on this cold, still dark morning. I'll start with game two of the World Series. Tampa Bay, behind "Big Game" James Shields, defeated the visiting Philadelphia Phillies by a score of 4-2. They ran, they hit and run and scratched out just what that they needed. The game was littered with Philadelphia lost chances and squandered opportunities, and I'm sure that team from Pennsylvania wants to forget game two and move on, at home, on Saturday. But the weather forecast might have the last word on that one. There is a good chance of heavy rain developing early Saturday down there, but it might not rain all night. The game is again scheduled for an 8:35pm EDT first pitch and I'll know more about the specific chances for wetness and I'll pass it on to you tomorrow. My original prediction came exactly true -- Philadelphia won game one behind their lefty wunderkind Hamels and Shields made it 1-1 with a gutsy performance in game two. It'll be Matt Garza ...
Phils Take World Series, Game One
2008-10-23 21:29:00 Last night, the Fall Classic commenced in Tampa-St. Petersburg, and the Fighting Phils thanks to the golden arm of Cole Hamels and Chase Utley's two-run homer in the first inning lead them to victory, 3-2.After a week off, the Phillies sure were not rusty; while the Rays seemed to be pressing.Hamels went seven strong innings, and gave up two runs on five hits to earn his fourth win of the postseason. The kid is a master, with the ability to mix-up his fastball and breaking stuff to get guys out. Brad Lidge got the save -- the 47th in 47 chances including the postseason -- that helped Philadelphia hold on to their narrow margin of victory.The Rays were able to get two runs off of Hamels courtesy of a Carl Crawford solo homer run in the 4th inning, and a Akinori Iwamura that plated Jason Bartlett in the fifth.Carlos Ruiz's groundout to score Shane Victorino made the difference for Philadelphia.Kazmir, was good, but not great and took the loss despite what he did in game five of the ...

World Series Game One Result...Five Boston Red Sox Off Season Questions
2008-10-23 11:00:00 Philadelphia won game one of the 2008 World Series with a tense, terse 3-2 pitching-heavy victory in St. Petersburg, Florida Wednesday night. The Phillies' Cole Hamels outpitched Scott Kazmir, who pitched well himself, to earn the victory. Game two will be Thursday night at 8:35pm EDT on FOX and FOXHD. It's a must game for the Mohawk-laden Rays.

Francona Health Update...World Series Game # 1
2008-10-22 11:46:00 Terry "Tito" Francona, manager of the Boston Red Sox, will require back surgery in the next week or so. Here is what he had to say about his situation..."I haven't been able to feel either arm for four or five months," Francona said. "I need to probably have some back surgery so I can stand a little straighter. I've had this since May. I'll go the next couple of days to get it figured out and then we'll get it done. This job takes an unbelievable amount . . . sometimes almost sucks the life out of you," said Francona, who signed a contract extension through 2011 in February. "I try real hard every winter to make sure when I come to spring training I can do my job because I owe that to the players and to the organization." Peter here, and I, among many others, think Tito has been the best manager in all of baseball over the last five plus years. He knows how to juggle his lineup, juggle (when needed) his pitching staff and lead his team. HE KNOWS HOW TO WIN! Be well, Terry...we l...

Yes, America --- The Rays Are Headed to the World Series...
2008-10-20 05:37:00 The Rays are in the World Series! If anyone picked them in March to play for it all -- you're lying. It seems like all of America -- aside from Red Sox fans -- were picking them to advance to the promised land, and finally, it looks the doormats of the AL East and the laughing stock of baseball for so many years has made it.What can we say about David Price! This game was his coming out party, and did he literally save Tampa Bay from eminent disaster by pitching 1 1/3 innings -- striking out J.D. Drew with the bases juiced to the end the 8th -- and struck out two in the final frame to get the save.Matt Garza pitched the game of his life, earning the win -- along with the second of the ALCS -- and making only one mistake -- Pedroia's first inning solo home run. Aside from that, Garza was a good as you could get. His counterpart on the mound, Lester was good -- going seven strong and giving up three runs -- but, it was not nearly enough.The Rays were on, and it showed after two deva...

Playoff Reflections: Philly Goes to the World Series...
2008-10-16 17:52:00 It looks like FOX will not be getting its dream World Series match-up of the Dodgers and Red Sox, since the Phillies took the National League pennant last night.Now, the Rays just have to won tonight.Cole Hamels dominated as Philadelphia found itself playing for a championship as they downed the Dodgers last night, 5-1. They used offense -- and a whole lot of Dodger miscues -- including three errors from Rafael Furbcal (in one inning) to earn an easy victory.Chad Billingsley was awful, and Greg Maddux sadly may be ever so-close to retirement after his painful outing.So, the first time since '93, they find themselves playing for only their second World Series victory (they only have one in their existence - 1980). For the Dodgers, it was a fun a little run they put together and they made the NLCS exciting; however, one man -- Manny -- does not make a team, and perhaps if everyone else had done their jobs, they would still be playing.Finally, I just really, really, liked this photo...

Yes, America - The Rays Are Just One Game From the World Series...
2008-10-15 18:04:00 Yes, America. It looks like the Tampa Bay Rays are just one win from making into their first ever World Series after having excatly zero winning seasons in their existence until this year.I always knew the Rays would be close or finish slightly above .500; however, if anyone says they expected them to win 97 games and be one step away from the World Series, I would suggest you start playing the Lottery.The Rays bushwhacked the Red Sox in Game Four of the ALCS, 13-4. There was not much to be said for last night if you're a Boston fan -- Wakefield got his arse kicked, despite having 16 days of rest and Tampa outplayed them.For everyone that's shocked -- don't be. Being an Oriole fan, I have seen enough of the Rays to contend they are for real. I thought the Red Sox would come back and mount a challenge, but now they are looking lost on the mound and the plate (especially David Ortiz, Ellsbury, and ugh -- Varitek), while the Rays look young, energized and not stressed at all.Homers ...

Ordway Returns To WEEI
2008-03-20 21:00:00 On March 4th we told you that WEEI’s Glen Ordway host of “The Big Show” was taking a leave due to family medical crisis that involved the birth of his daughter just days prior.
