    Week 10 Cubs at Dodgers

    Friday, June 6, 2008, 10:54 PM [General]

    Week 10 Cubs at Dodgers

    Jason Marquis and Me...

    This week I go over some mechanics with Cubs' pitcher and Staten Island native Jason Marquis...he listens intently

    I had to thank Jason for the time I was in St. Louis and was mistaken for him by one of his female fans...They love their baseball in St. Louis

    The Look of A Guy That Couldn't Be Less Frightened...

    My challenge of a duel to the death is not accepted (much to the dismay of everyone on my crew)...not even me going into my attack position changed his mind

    He should consider himself lucky that he didn't have to face my crane technique

    Sights and Sounds...

    Kosuke Fukudome gets interviewed by a sumo wrestler (who had the back of his jersey? autographed by Takashi Saito)

    2 Great former 3rd basemen...Former Cub great Ron Santo and Dodgers manager Joe Torre chat in the dugout

    Cubs' pitcher Carlos Zambrano gets his picture taken with a sumo wrestler

    Normally a reserved journalist...Kenny Rosenthal shows off his wild side...Kenny Albert  --he brings out the animal in all of us

    Cubs skipper Lou Piniella watches BP - over 60 years old and I'm 100% positive he would beat me down like a red-headed stepchild in a fight

    Digger is Coming to Baseball...

    If  you love new technology and gophers like me -- you will be excited to know that the FOXGopher Cam will be coming to an MLB on FOX  game near you soon

    Hey, If Lou Piniella is excited about Digger coming to FOX - shouldn't you be too?

    Old School Jerseys....

    and the most improbable jersey of them all...someone actually had on an Eric Karros jersey shirt...unbelievable

    Ballpark Gourmet...

    You couldn't go to Dodger Stadium and not have a Dodger Dog -- I load mine up with some onions, relish, mustard and jalapenos

    Just be careful -- the jalapenos have a life of their own

    And of Course...

    One of the prettier girls I've picked up - and check out the artistic view in the mirror

    I hit up the prom at the Omni

    2nd week in a row with a girl in knee-high socks -- a tradition is born

    The Adventures of Screwballs...IN CASE YOU MISSED IT

    Check out the animated adventures of Screwballs as he battles "The Evil Head," with help from his friends Jimmy Rollins, Jonathan Papelbon and Joba Chamberlain, as he tries to restore order to the baseball world.

    Week 9 Dodgers at Mets

    Friday, May 30, 2008, 06:51 PM [General]

    Superstitious...

    Baseball players are historically superstitious...some are so superstitious that they won't even tell what their superstitions are. Luckily for us, some of them will.

    Everyone has a different idea of what to do to break a slump. The Yankees' Jason Giambi dons a leopard skin g-string ... Former Marlin Mike Redmond took BP naked ... Mark Grace, well his idea of a slump buster isn't suitable for this family orientated column.

    What do you do when your team is in a slump? Mets PR director Jay Horowitz went a different route (if you pictured him in the leopard g-string, I'm sorry) and donned a bright orange sports coat given to him by former Met Jeromy Burnitz. Three straight wins (at the time of publication) later and he's still wearing the jacket.

    If the Mets win on Friday night, you will see Jay reading the Mets starting lineup on Saturday. (I've never rooted for a Mets win this hard in my life).

    Sights and Sounds...

    Joe Torre and Tim Robbins talk during BP - Superstitious ... Nuke LaLoosh wore a black garter belt when he pitched. No word on if Robbins was wearing it in this picture.

    Darryl Strawberry and Billy Wagner talk near the cage.

    Nick Evans, who hit three doubles in his major-league debut last weekend (on FOX) signs some balls for the fans.

    The Mets' new stadium "Citi Field" in the background of Shea.

    Kickin' It Old School...

    If you are going old school, don't get a style of jersey that the player never wore. Gary Carter never wore that style jersey - WEAK.

    Creative points for the guy with a Bill Buckner Mets jersey and to the guy with a jersey of the team mascot ... Mr. Met

    What is worse? Having a Shinjo jersey/t-shirt or having the nerve to wear it to a game ... that might top the Rico Brogna jersey I saw last year at Shea

    The greatest jersey ever?

    A Bad News Bears Tanner Boyle jersey

    In the immortal words of Tanner Boyle: Crud, No! I want to play ball!

    Another Bad Song...

    I know I can't sing but does that mean that I shouldn't? Probably...Here is a song I wrote about Eric Karros' hair...a little bit on the folksy side but I think you'll enjoy it

    Hit the triangle to play the video...

    And of Course...

    You gotta like a girl that comes to the game with knee-high socks and a pom-pom (out of frame - note to my cameraman Wayne - You are better than that)

     

    After Tiffany got over her fear that I was tring to steal her cell phone ... she enjoyed the pickup.

    Warning to my fans: what you are about to see might be painful

    Even the great ones don't get a hit every time ... not getting the pickup was hard enough but I could have lived without her throwing the peace sign in my face as she walked away
