It'll be interesting to see how they do against some better teams. Can't complain about a good start though.

Although it would be nice for some closer games. I need Kimbrel to get my fantasy team some saves this weekend.

Can the playoffs start?

Rangers are absolutely killing it. 8-0 and the first inning isn't even over.

Yeah, it just kept going and going. I loved every bit of. Also, Brandon Inge has no place being at second base. He's just not that good of a player at all.

Sucked to see Beltre tweak his hammy, but hopefully it's nothing major. He's listed as day-to-day for now.

I didn't think it was possible, but we lost CJ and still managed to upgrade the staff. I'm just a little nervous about Nathan in the closer role. He's been shaky so far.. But man, Texas has been killing it lately. The series against the Yankees should be great. I'm thinking this could be the year we get over the hump and win the title. Fingers crossed.

It is tragic that Josh Hamilton pissed a half decade away for drugs. That swing... dude could easily have had 300 HR by now.

Phil Humber of the White Sox just threw a perfect game. Oh my.

That ump wanted no part of possibly repeating the Joyce-Galarraga situation.

That was a swing.

Man the Red Sox are an embarrassing bunch right now, huh? Almost makes me wish I were a fairweather fan and could jump on the Nationals bandwagon. Can't do it though.

Here's a better angle of the final bullet. Did he swing? Freeze frame tells all.

Braves win again, and you got your save.

And 3 k's to boot.

Just got back from my first trip to Pittsburgh, went to the Pirates Cardinals game last night. Pretty cool stadium, I like the walkways behind the outfield and they have some great food. They gave out Pirates umbrellas and it was raining but they didn't let people use the umbrellas, if you put your up, the staff yelled at you... It was cool though, got a free umbrella, spun a wheel and won a terrible looking McCutchen figure and had great food. It was also nice to see Pittsburgh win and people there supporting that sad team. Even AJ pitched like a winner after looking like shit during the first 3 batters of the game.

Yeah, PNC Park (if that's what it's still called) is awesome. Shame the team has sucked for so long.

Yup, still PNC Park. I really like the bridge behind the stadium that you walk across over the river, it's a cool touch.

Super excited, going to Yankees/Tigers this Saturday. Never been to an East Coast game so fired up for Yankee Stadium. Although its not the Dodgers should still be fun. Any tips?

Wear Yankees gear or you'll get your ass kicked/mugged.

Watch out for your cornhole, bud.

That's not true at all.

I recommend getting a prime rib sandwich, it's amazing. Although it is like $14.

Agreed. I've been to Yankees Stadium (the old one) for Sox-Yankees games wearing Sox gear and while I certainly got some ribbing - which I expected - I never felt remotely threatened.
