When you look at the possible clubs punching their playoff tickets this year, you will see a tremendous 1-2 punch of hurlers on each team. With [...]

I still can’t get over the fact that with a team in a playoff race, fans still do not show up at the game, as there were only around 25,000 at the stadium. The paid attendance was 28,000 and change, and that looked like a stretch. I miss going to Shea on a Saturday night [...]

Andrew Beaton from Hotfootblog posted an interesting video of former Mets pitcher Satoru Komiyama. You may remember Komiyama pitching for the Mets in 2002. I believe they referred to him as the Japanese “Greg Maddux”. I don’t have many memories of Komiyama, with the exception of the goggles, but I do remember him giving up [...]

As the Yankees drift out to the edges of this year’s pennant race, my thoughts turned to an old friend of ours, Don Mattingly.  One of my fondest baseball memories occurred on October 3rd, 1995 when I was lucky enough to be at Yankee stadium that night.  You see, on that special night, the Yankees [...]
