As you can tell, I'm speechless. Take advantage of the situation. It doesn't happen very often.

Three grand slams.

How many times in a normal game are the bases loaded?

Not that I want to cast any aspersions on major leaguers, but I think I could have pitched better. Yeah, I'm old and I'm a goil. But I got a helluva right arm.

Too bad. The Cubs could use a lefty.

Sorry, kid. Don't know any decent southpaws currently out of work.

Huntington Beach California won the Little League World Series today with a walk-off single in the 6th inning defeating the team from Japan.
Congrats!

the Royals hung 11 runs on 17 hits in Detroit today.

I sure wish we'd find some pitching...

this is just obscene...

Mariano Rivera.

his career broken down by the numbers.

@Region Philbis,
we are pounding the white sox 9-0 right now.

Ozzie's favorite pitcher, Bruce Chen is holding them to one hit so far...

Ima miss ol' crazy Ozzie if he leaves there. I love to see our guys drive him nuts.

we own the series with them this year...

@Region Philbis,
Ozzie was 'traded' for 2 minor leaguers. They had to compensate the Marlins becuase he was still under contract for another year.

Right now, lots of fans are hanging on four games to see who makes the playoffs.

If the MLB plan of having 5 and not 4 teams into the postseason, it would have been over since Sunday.
I'd like the divisions to end, but 5 teams into the playoffs, I say it's a bad plan.
