This cracked me up...

http://espn.go.com/mlb/story/_/id/9660890/wladimir-balentien-hits-55th-homer-tie-japan-mark

Any chance Balentine gets another crack at the MLB level. HE couldnt hit shit in America, but 31, 31, and 55 (probably more by the end of the year) HRs in 3 straight seasons is nothing to scoff at, despite it being Japan. Maybe he figured some things out???

I think an appropriate link that should be posted next should be about their steroid and HGH policy in japan...

With all matches in this ranking period complete, I think the USA will jump to 13th in the FIFA World Rankings.

Jose Fernandez (awesome rookie Cuban pitcher) just cranked a HR and stood there and watched it and then dogged it all around the bases....when he got to 3rd he spit in front of Chris Johnson.....Braves are pissed.

Earlier in game Evan Gattis hit a huge HR and glanced out towards Fernandez....Fernandez was looking back.

Very odd.

That has to be the best way for a pitcher to get back at a hitter/team for "showboating".

What position was Gattis playing?

Johnson acted like a complete ass in that. First off hernandez is a hot head. He def should not have spit anywhere around johnson. But if johnson didnt like it, why didn't he do something about it right then. THEN mccann says something, then johnson runs up and could have gone right in hernandezs face, but instead runs behind the ump and mccann. THEN hr starts yelling at Fernandez, only to drift further and further away.

Then goes all roid rage when he goes back to 3rd base screaming and yelling....

And what gets lost in all of it is Gattis staring at hernandez after hitter a homer off him...While still down 4-1

Lol....Lincecum with a 9 run lead drills Puig on an up and in fastball and Puig goes down hard and gives Timmy the stare and Timmy quickly gave him the "my bad" chest tap.

I agree, someone having the last name of Dickess is pretty surprising!

I highly doubt that is true. I was at a small event that he was at a couple of years ago and he mentioned to the waitress that he was eyeing the drink tub and mixed drinks but they werent supposed to drink there.. (shoulda saw ryan freel...he looked like a kid looking into a closed candy store!)

Considering what the Cards did to the Nats last year.. this was just a small payback.

Be nice if the worthless fuckers could get real payback by, I don't know, actually beating the fucking Cards so the Pirates can vulture the division and avoid the one-game wild card...
