I can’t ever remember being this happy to have the Cincinnati Reds in town for a series. Hopefully this is the start of the Cubs getting back on track. If the Cubs want to keep 1977 from repeating itself, there are a few things that need to be addressed. For starters, Chicago has not been the same without the bat of Dexter Fowler, who

time his son Drake spent in the clubhouse. First of all, I commend Laroche for sticking to his beliefs of family first and that is something I completely agree with, but bringing your kid to work 100% of the time is a bit ridiculous nowhere in the world does that happen so I completely agree with the White Sox organization in that aspect it's not like he said stop bringing him forever just reduce the amount

teammates. Harvey hasn’t always displayed the most maturity, so this is a big moment for him. If he doesn’t step up to the challenge, it could single-handedly derail this talented Mets team that has as good a shot as any in the National League to make the World

bowlers, both in the air and off the pitch. In fact, in international cricket, for any team, winning a Test series in South Africa is regarded as one of the toughest challenges and no team barring England and Australia have achieved this glory so far.

Difficulty of Baseball vs. Softball What sport do you think is harder baseball or softball? The reasons baseball is a harder sport is because of the tempo, the strength of players, and the size of the field that the players play on. The innings in baseball are played at a very fast pace, but the game is also two innings longer. The athletes that play baseball are also much stronger and faster.

I watched “42” this weekend. The movie is based on a few years in Jackie Robinson’s life as the first Black man to enter Major League Baseball. It was amazing. Mr. Robinson said “God built me to last” when confronted with the impending challenges. This thought triggered a few memories…. The Cost of Rear For much of my professional career I found myself being the only female and mostly the only person of color.

a bright and sunny day. It’s Game 3 of the World Series between the New York Yankees and the Chicago Cubs. And the grandstands are jam-packed with nearly 50,000 fans.

I went to Arizona this weekend to watch Dodger spring training and see my grandparents. My grandpa showed me a bat signed by Ron Cey. My dad asked how he got that and he said a silent auction at a baseball game. We didn’t know that they had auctions at baseball games. The next day when we went to the Dodgers v.s.
