Didn't see a baseball thread. Figured I'd start one. Did anyone else see the Cincinnati mayor's attempt at a first pitch. I still haven't stopped laughing. And that mayor, Mark Mallory, just went on Jimmy Kimmel and I've got to say, he's taking the ribbing like a man. I admire the guy even as I laugh at his athletic inability.

I just saw a commercial stating that the Giants "take on the hated Jeff Kent and the Los Angeles Dodgers!" I'm still LMAO over that one!

I'm glad Henry Aaron isn't going to be there when steroid man breaks his record.

Me too, Ketchup. I've read that book, and steroid man is a real piece of work. My Rangers got no-hit by Buerhle last week and I watched every pitch. Boy had some nasty stuff. I got the MLB Extra innings package from DirectTV for the first time this year, and it's awesome. I guess you'd have to be a baseball nut like me to really like it, but if you are, it's worth it. I've found a better appreciation for my hometown announcers after listening to some others.

Oh I can't stand Bonds. I don't care if it's not sporting, just walk him. I had the Sports Pack when I first got DirecTV - it carried other markets' sports channels. It was fun but I prefer to listen to games on the radio rather than watch them on tv so I dropped it after a while.

Growing up in the bay are, we were all A's fans. My Mom is the biggest A's fan but somewhere along the way, my brother Will turned. He's a huge Red Sox fan. Goes to A's games when they play the Red Sox, and roots for the Red Sox.

I'm at work and listening to the game. Now, we're winning so this isn't sour grapes but what's with all the sucky umpiring in the AL this year? It seems way worse than average. And I still say opposing teams should just walk Bonds.

Hubby is a St Louis fan [not too happy this year but he is not a fair weather fan so still watches when he can] but I told him he needed to be a Sox fan as the car and truck license plates both end in SOX. My car's plates end in SOS so I told him maybe I should be the Cardinal fan - he didn't laugh.

Looks like A-Rod's wife just left him. Can't say I blame here with all the pics out there w/ him and a blonde. He's not even smart enough to hide his affair.

Okay, even as a Yankee fan, I have to admit this made me laugh my butt off!
Alex Rodriguez stepped up to bat while trying to ignore the scores of blonde-haired masks donned by hundreds of Red Sox fans at last night's game. Good one, BoSox!

Rangers just traded Teixeira to Atlanta. According to most sources, this trade is good for both teams. Rangers get a lot of young players with potential, and the Braves get an all-star 1st baseman. As a Ranger fan, I have to say that "Big Tex" never really connected with the fan base. He had a huge sense of entitlement, and an enormous ego. His agent is the anti-christ, Scott Boras. He had a part in getting Buck Showalter fired, and then had the audacity to feud with new manager Ron Washington because Washington actually tried to "coach" him. Heaven forbid someone have some advice for him, because he obviously knows everything about baseball. In return, the Rangers get Jarod Saltalamacchia, Elvis Andrus, Matt Harrison, and Nestali Feliz, all under the age of 23, I beleive. "Salty", Andrus, and Harrison were the top 3 prospects in the Braves organization, and Feliz is a 19 year old guy with a great arm. If the Braves make the playoffs these next two seasons, then it's a good trade for them. If they don't, then this is a bad trade for them. The Rangers were not going to re-sign Tex, so anything they get out of the guys they got is gravy.

My husband was at the Giants game last night and was just so excited. I don't think it's worn off yet.
