thankfully my yankees were able to come back and beat doghouse 's redsox. the rivalry continues.

Fwiffo you watching this Jays/Rangers game? the Rogers center is fucking ELECTRIC. first full house in 3 years and they're showing it.

No. Went to bed when they were losing 7-1. It's always sold out for the first homestand. I know someone who is going on Sunday.

Looking at the final score I now know why I'm awake as someone decided to pull the alarm in the underground garage of a hotel down the street from the stadium. No shortage of sirens, beeping and PA speakers.

I get that. But a perfect game is a perfect game.

I'm a Mets fan and Johan S pitched a no hitter for them that pretty may have ruined his career after. Hey..a no hitter is a no hitter...to a fan!

Oakland Coliseum Trying To Figure Out What To Do About The 30–40 Feral Cats That Have Taken Over | Defector

A modest proposal: Since the Athletics don’t want to play in the Coliseum anymore, and the Raiders already peaced, we should give the stadium over to a group that actually appreciates it and wants to stay. That’s right, I’m talking about the enormous cat colony that has moved in and gotten...

PHILADELPHIA -- The Phillies needed to do something to save their latest season of unfulfilled expectations, so on Friday they dismissed Joe Girardi. Maybe it propels them to the postseason for the first time since 2011. Or maybe the Phillies’ issues run much deeper than manager. The Phils will find

Toronto Blue Jays | Rogers Centre
Price of a Beer: $4.33
Price of a Hot Dog: $4.72
