Giants rookie throws a no hitter while also hitting 3 batters. That's a new one.

Yeah, it seems shaky. It took 272 markets into account and St Louis, PIttsburgh, Cincy, atlanta and Pittsburgh were above them.

Must have taken team performance low into account I guess other than St Louis.

Sorta like when they did the whole best towns in a america a number of years ago. A town next to us was one of america's top 100 towns and everyone in the area scratched their head at that one. Takes in many other accounts I guess.

Pujols hits #537 to pass Mantle

17 HR this year.

I think he gets to around 640 HR, near 2,000 RBI, 1850 runs, 640 doubles, 3200 hits....sounds like Willie Mays for career counting stats

King Felix went 1/3 of an inning and gave up 8 ER to the slumping Astros

maybe the official scorer can find an error about a month from now to make those unearned

Does the price really get that high on the coasts? That's one of the main reasons I love going to baseball games, it's easily the cheapest professional sport to attend. $30 usually gets you a solid seat at any of the local teams, hell I paid $36 on Stubhub for seats for Reds/Tigers tomorrow night 13 rows behind 1st

Awesome to watch. It was always great as a kid getting to watch a game if he was pitching in it.

Omar Infante is statistically, by far the worst offensive player in baseball


But it is leading top 15 Kipnis to lead all AL 2nd baseman

How absent-minded do you have to be to use the same master password list from your old job at your new job?

How old is the dude who ran both databases? Since that seems to be the sort of shit I'd expect from a 60-year-old type with no clue as to how the Internet works.

Is it really hacking if you know the password? To me, that's negligence against who ever didn't change it...

Graduated with his bachelor's in 1984, so that puts him around 53 or 54 years old...pretty close to 60.

It's fucking cheating. If he's 90 or 25 it's stil cheating. Cards are the worst

It might not be "hacking" but it still violates the law
