He did it!

 

but later said he died from choking on his own vomit? now his widow is suing the angels bc those drugs are hard to get so she thinks someone on the angels got them for him. the angels now got a lawyer to defend against any employee who could've given him the drugs. this will drag out for a long time.

Sad

Astros vs Cubs.

 

I never thought the astros would go up to $177M on their payroll.

 

CINCINNATI — With a homer, a win and an appearance in the outfield, Michael Lorenzen pulled off a feat last accomplished by The Babe. Cincinnati’s versatile reliever also blocked the Phillies from gaining ground in the playoff chase.

That last part stung the most for Philadelphia.

Lorenzen hit a two-run homer in the eighth inning Wednesday night as the Reds pulled away to an 8-5 victory. He got his first win and first homer of the season. He also finished the game playing center field.

The last player to get a victory, hit a homer and play outfield in the same game was Babe Ruth for the Yankees on June 13, 1921, according to STATS.

He should demand Babe Ruth type money.

 

PHILLIES should be shot for allowing a pitcher to hit a game winning HR! And he ain't the Babe just yet !

 

105 years ago today Babe Ruth hit his first ever pro home run on Hanlans Point, Toronto Island Canada.

Cool story bro

 

Surprise, Surprise !

The Red Sox fired president of baseball operations Dave Dombrowski minutes after Sunday night’s 10-5 loss against the Yankees, replacing him with three assistants on an interim basis.

The decision comes less than 11 months after the Sox won the World Series.

Dombrowski was on the field at Fenway Park before Sunday’s game for a ceremony honoring long-time team employees. But just after midnight, the Sox said he was out.

Assistant general managers Brian O’Halloran, Eddie Romero and Zack Scott will run the baseball operations department until a new general manager or president of baseball operations is named.

The Red Sox, 76-67, are in third place with 19 games remaining after going 108-54 last season.

 

crazy Will. Why?

 

Good question... I don't know yet.
