This is just about the most disgusting story that I have ever read involving unruly fans at a stadium event. As reported by NBC Philadelphia , a 21-year-old man was arrested at Wednesday's game between the Phillies and the Nationals after he INTENTIONALLY VOMITED ON AN 11-YEAR-OLD GIRL AND HER FATHER. Let me repeat that. This douche stuck his fingers down his throat and "projectile vomited" all ...

San Francisco Giant uniforms do not like Los Angeles Dodger uniforms and vice versa. However, the hatred is only cotton-deep. Put the ballplayer in street clothes, stick 'em in a room, and most of the exchanges would be cordial. Casey Blake might run into a couple problems and Pablo Sandoval might not share a warm embrace with Russell Martin , but the tension in the room would be considerably less than ...

With Kyle Kendrick doing his best Chan Ho Park imitation, and a few other warning signs illuminating, could the rumors about Ruben Amaro contacting Pedro Martinez's agent to negotiate a deal be true? As I detailed on Tuesday in Top 10 Destinations For a Pedro Martinez Return in 2010, Martinez has made it clear that he wants to return to action, and there are many teams that could be a fit. ...

If you were a fan of the Yankees or Red Sox in the mid to late 90's, you no doubt took a side in the Nomar Garciaparra/Derek Jeter debate. Jeter and Garciaparra were two of the new breed of shortstop. Shortstops were no longer defensive specialists and merely adequate with the bat—Jeter and Garciaparra were two of the premier hitters in baseball. Both won Rookie of the Year awards, Jeter in ...

The Yankees have won each of their first three series by a count of two games to one, and they'll hope to keep that success going this weekend as they welcome the Texas Rangers to town. The Rangers are 5-4, tied in the loss column with first-place Oakland, and have received some solid pitching so far. Texas is third in the American League with a 2.95 ERA, fourth in batting average ...

  Just because Mark Teixeira is 3-for-27 to start that season doesn't mean it's time to panic. Teixeira has a career .305 batting average after the All-Star break. It's only one week. My colleague Bryan Curley already stressed the point that it is unwise to react strongly to just one week of baseball, but I am here to reiterate that point and drill it into your head. I thought ...

He doesn’t have a starting job. He plays in an extreme pitcher's park on a terrible lineup. So why should fantasy owners keep an eye on Jake Fox? Well, he did just hit his first home run of the season. Fox is what we in the business call a free swinger. In 82 games for the Cubs last year, Fox offered at 37.7 percent of pitches outside the strike zone (25.1 percent MLB ...

Due to financial reasons, a highly-paid pitcher moves from a solid team and comes to the Bronx with high expectations. People spoke on how he comes from a weaker division, and wonder how this right hander, who is a control specialist but strikes out his share of batters, will fare in the mighty American League East, a division which had four of the top five hitting teams in the AL. This starter ...

Recently, Orlando Hudson of the Minnesota Twins has leveled the claim that Jermaine Dye and Gary Sheffield are not playing for a major league team in 2010 because the owners are racists. I can't get into the heads of each owner to know if Hudson is right or wrong. However, I have found 5 reasons why he might be wrong. Now if in the next couple of years, guys like ...

If you watched yesterday’s game and saw Chan Ho Park warming up in the bullpen , you might have been surprised when they didn’t see him in the game. No, he didn’t have another bout of diarrhea . This time, according to Bryan Hoch of MLB.com , he aggravated his right hamstring while throwing in the pen. There will be tests conducted today to get an idea of how long Park ...
