The Mariners recently hired 22-year-old Amanda Hopkins as a full-time scout. Hopkins is the daughter of Ron Hopkins, a longtime scout and former scouting director. The first female scouts were Edith Houghton (White Sox – 1925-1943) and Bessie Largent (Phillies – 1946-1951). Houghton worked with her husband and Largent was the first full-time female scout […]

Fantasy Baseball is a Misnomer

Mae Mordabito — Tue, 12 Jan 2016 17:52:34 +0000

I have played fantasy baseball. I’ll probably play it again this year. Aside from the fact that it sucks up way more of my time than I’d like, it’s fun. I enjoy the competition. I also enjoy how it gives me a real incentive to closely follow individual players from various teams. That said, I […]

There are lots of reasons to miss baseball during the off-season. This is one…. Here’s a fun one. And how about a hand job? More coming soon. You’re welcome, fellow fans.

Mike Piazza Deserves the Hall of Fame Nod

I loved watching Mike Piazza play for the Dodgers in the 90’s. He was at the top of his game and on fire. His stats would never be as good as they were during those days with the Dodgers (highest– AB – .362; OBP – .431; SLG – .638; HR – 40), although he did […]

We’re back after a long hiatus and very excited about the 2015 season. Taking over a year off isn’t common in the blogging world, but it was necessary for us. However, we’re back for good now!

Remember that old Mary McGregor song, Torn Between Two Lovers? “Torn between two lovers, feeling like a fool, loving both of you is breaking all the rules….” That was me last night while I was watching the Giants – D-Backs game. I’m a true Giants fan, and I was a fan many years before they […]

Actress Joanna Garcia Swisher married Nick Swisher, then of the New York Yankees, on December 2010. Her career has been a bit lackluster since they married and Nick’s…well, Nick is now playing for the Cleveland Indians.

Oooo! We Like It Like That!

SF Giants fans are used to a certain amount of torture. In fact, I think we have become so familiar with the feeling that we actually like it. Yeah, it’s one of those “it hurts so good” things. We’ve loved the torture for a long time, but Broadcaster Duane Kuiper finally gave it a public […]

What do you do when you blow a routine play in front of 20,000 some odd Phillies fans down in Florida to catch a bit of spring training action? Well, if you’re a Hooters girl who knocked down a fair ball hit right over the third base bag Sunday and hands it to a little […]
