Birds, Fish and other Baseball Observations
The Diamondbacks' walk of Barry Bonds with the bases loaded the other night was certainly a unique event. According to Rob Neyer of ESPN Sportszone, no major leaguer had been walked with the bases loaded in over 40 years - but, ironically, the intentional walk probably made a lot more sense in that situation than in most situations in which it is used. So it really shouldn't be considered controversial or questionable.

But Are They Really the Best?
Pitching has always been the most important part of winning. Offense almost always decreases dramatically in the playoffs and World Series because the teams that get to the World Series get there on pitching and defense. Now, with two rounds of playoffs before the World Series, it has almost become a rarity for the team with best regular season to get to the World Series, much less win it.

Extremism Can Be Good
Extremism is not good, but in baseball, two or three extremely good pitchers can make all the difference in the world---if the rest of the team is good enough to make the playoffs.

Twenty Game Loser? Hall of Famer
Baseball’s Hall of Fame is the home of the best players in the history of the game, but even some of the best have had problems. One mark of a top flight pitcher is winning 20 games in a season, and quite a few pitchers have even won 30 games in a season, but what is remarkable is that many Hall of Fame pitchers have lost at least 20 games in a season.
