Ramblin On About My Glory Days: From Yaz to Perco to Ochocinco

Whenever I have a baseball coach’s clinic, I begin with a trivia question, “Who caught the last ball that Carl Yastrzemski ever hit in a major league game?” Not one person has ever answered correctly; until I gave them the hint, “The answer is so obvious, like it is right in front of you.” Every once in a while the “average Joe”(Jack Perconte) gets touched...

Saturday Night Open Thread: Remember A-Rod's "Cousin"?

Remember Yuri Sucart? He's the guy that A-Rod said helped him get the steroids and persuaded him to use them. It turns out that while A-Rod has successfully turned his career in the right direction, Sucart has hit rock bottom. Here's more from Michael O'Keeffe : Banks began foreclosure proceedings on Yuri Sucart's Miami home and three South Florida rental properties in the months after Rodriguez's...

The Debut of the DH

Starting in the 1973 season, the American League implemented the designated hitter rule, which allowed a player to hit for another player, which is almost always the pitcher. Here is a look at how the first designated hitters did for their respective American League clubs during opening day of the ‘73 season. April 6th – Boston Red Sox 15, New York Yankees 5 at Fenway Park NYY DH: Ron...

BASEBALL: Twice As Nice

The baseball writers for once got both Cy Young Awards right. One thing that jumps out as a sign of the times: neither 15-game-winner Tim Lincecum nor 16-game-winner Zack Greinke (both of whom were "supported" by weak offensive teams) had so much as 25 decisions . Looking at Greinke's ERA+ of 205, tied for the 31st best league/park adjusted ERA of all time with Addie Joss' 1908, I was reminded...

YouTube Tuesday: Fear and Loathing in the Major Leagues

No real theme to today's edition of YouTube Tuesday. It's just that I ran across this amazingly entertaining story of the role of LSD in a major league pitcher's no-hitter back in the '70s. Here's what the YouTube description has to say: In celebration of the greatest athletic achievement by a man on a psychedelic journey, No Mas and artist James Blagden proudly present the animated tale of Dock Ellis'...

Drilling down on Roy Halladay

When it comes to pitchers on the block, the Yankees are always a likely destination simply because, for the last 15 years, landing pitchers has been the team’s modus operandi. They acquired David Cone in 1995, David Wells after the 1996 season and Roger Clemens prior to 1999 campaign. In the 2000s, the names — [...] Post from: River Ave. Blues A New York Yankees blog Drilling down on Roy...

Derek Jeter Will Be Your 2009 SI Sportsman Of The Year

Sports Illustrated isn’t announcing their Sportsman Of The Year on December 1st , but I’ll save you the wondering. Last year I spilled a lot of digital ink telling you who should have won (Joe Maddon , not that drug addict swimmer ). This year I could do the same (Ben Zobrist), but could it be any more obvious who’ll they’ll give it to? Fifth “world title.” Broke...

Holiday Shopping Ideas

You can do your part to stimulate the economy by purchasing an item or two in one of the many sports memorabilia auctions taking place...

Name This Old Cub

No, this isn't about Ron Santo. Last year, we did an occasional series of "Name That Cub", where you had to identify a Cubs player from the past from an old photo. It was fun, but in general, too easy -- because most of the photos I used were from the last three or four decades. I'm upping the ante. Since it's a non-newsy baseball weekend, let's try Cubs from the black-and-white era. No prizes...

Can We Please Give Derek Jeter Some More Awards?

Just some more shiny things for his trophy case would be great. If we could go ahead and embed some diamonds in there, too. Maybe some engraving would be nice, as well. The New York Yankees shortstop, who is not even the best shortstop on his team, let alone the American League, received a Gold Glove for his position this season to go along with his 2009 Hank Aaron Award, handed out to the league’s...

No Mas Animates MLB's Most Infamous Tale

I've read a bunch of articles about this incident but the No Mas TV peeps have done a terrific job telling the story in a creative and fun way. Here's what No Mas has to say about the clip: In celebration of the greatest athletic achievement by a man on a psychedelic journey, No Mas and artist James Blagden proudly present the animated tale of Dock Ellis' legendary LSD no-hitter.

No Mas Presents: Dock Ellis & The LSD No-No by James Blagden

from nomas Inn celebration of the greatest athletic achievement by a man on a psychedelic journey, No Mas and artist James Blagden proudly present the animated tale of Dock Ellis' legendary LSD no-hitter. In the past few years weve heard all too much about performance enhancing drugs from greenies to tetrahydrogestrinone, and not enough about performance inhibiting drugs.

Thinking about first basemen in history

So I was thinking about something last night, and it occurred to me that it would be an interesting topic for discussion here to see what folks at LSB think... I think almost everyone who knows baseball would agree that Lou Gehrig was the greatest first baseman of all time. And I think almost every who knows baseball would agree that Jimmie Foxx was the second-greatest first baseman of all time. But...
