• Strike Me Out To The Ballgame

As baseball sage Yogi Berra once said, "It's déjà vu all over again". Your 2025 Boston Red Sox are starting to look an awful lot like your 2024 Boston Red Sox. After their first 16 games, they are 7-9—most recently dropping a series to the abysmal Chicago White Sox—a team most normal squads get healthy on. The most troubling comparatives to 2024 are: strikeouts and errors—the t...2025

• Home run-hitting pitchers

Getty Chicks dig the long ball I was recently reading about the all-time career home run leaders for pitchers by each team. The Royals were towards the bottom of the pile, primarily since the American League instituted the Designated Hitter in 1973. Their home run leader is Jim Rooker, one of the original Royals. He has five, a record that will most likely never be broken. Four of those di...2025

He was a lefty with the heart of a lion. My father used to regale me with stories about old baseball players and teams. I suppose that’s the reason I’m more interested in the old times than the modern game.
