Following the score via the MLB At Bat app on the phone showed a rough first inning for otherwise solid Cards starter Joel Pineiro, surrendering a three-run blast to Brewers rookie CaseyMcGehee before settling in to finish seven innings. Making […]

We’ve featured the work of Batting Stance Guy here before. Of course, that was before he was BattingStanceGuy.com ™. (We think.)

DeRo, Smoltzie, and those poor Baby Bears The Boston Herald dumps a heap of salt into the wounds of Cub fans with this one. […]

Can’t believe it’s been this long already, and can’t believe the date slipped by even this long. It’s not one year to the day, but a couple days ago marked the anniversary of our foray onto Twitter. What a wild ride it’s been, thanks to all of you following. Can anyone help with the Twitter […]

By now you’ve surely heard from someone, or read somewhere, or looked it up yourself. Joel Pineiro has displayed exceptional control of his pitches this season. In fact, entering his start in San Diego tonight, Pineiro leads MLB among qualifying pitchers in fewest walks total and fewest walks per nine innings. Not far behind are […]

Every so often we get e-mails from the great media relations folks over at Sirius XM Satellite Radio, mostly containing information about upcoming guests on their MLB shows, particularly MLB Home Plate’s “The Show” – featuring Jody McDonald and former MLB pitcher Rob Dibble. Yesterday’s e-mail, however, was of particular interest to Cardinal fans, so […]
