I tried to get opening day tickets for the Nationals yesterday, as I did get through on the computer. I made the mistake of hitting best available as they...
Welcome springtime and another baseball season !! Winter is depressing isn't it ? - February is the worst month of the year - it's the shortest, but seems like...
Great article in this month's Washingtonian. Make no mistake about it. If you dont have a parking pass, you must take the metro or park at RFK. There is no...

I noticed that one of the three numbers not assigned in spring training was 33 (Hondo's number.) I have heard that they plan to retire it. I wrote to Stan...
Retring Howard's 33 would be a nice gesture, although I wouldn't advocate involving the Rangers. He no longer holds that franchise's single-season or career HR...
If the Nats do plan to retire Hondo's number and set a date, I'd appreciate someone posting it on here in case I miss it. That's something I'd really like to...
Ok everyone, put your thinking caps on. What SS, known for his wild arm, overthrew 1B in pre-game warmups and killed a fan? I am guessing this is pre-1900 but...
Who remembers Dick Such, a pitcher who spent a little over 3 months with the 1970 Senators? In his only season, he went 1-5 with an ERA of 7.56. I recall that...
In the event anyone is interested, I attended a game between the Camden (NJ) Riversharks and the Southern Maryland Blue Crabs on Sunday, May 18th. (Camden won,...
I m in the process of going through 10 boxes of BB newspaper/magzine/scorecard clippings/pictures. I've come across hundreds, in all shapes and sizes, of the...
I just realized that the Twins won the AL pennant in 1965 in only their 5th year in Minnesota. After a franchise dry spell going back to 1933. I also notice...
Today (August 8th, 2008) is Frank Howard's 72nd birthday. (How old does that make the rest of us?) As one of the very few bright spots in the expansion...

I was happy for Killebrew, Allison and Pascual but rooted against them due to Calvin Griffith. It was a real slap in the face at the time. My dad was...
Just read that Ed Brinkman died, way too young. He was an amazing fielder, deserving of more than one Gold Glove he received (and as a Tiger!). Ted Williams...

Andy, the Post did a great obit for Eddie, two columns worth. Joe Holley, the Post writer did a great job and emphasized his fielding ability. He reminded us...
