Here Comes The Season...
I was in the Orioles store on Farragut Square on Friday, and I heard a man complaining because his Opening Day tickets are too high. Too high. The man is going to be in the stadium, not at work, just enjoying a baseball game, possibly a beer, and he’s complaining because he’s going to be too far from the grass? the orioles • washington dc • baseball

It Really Is Offensive Great pitching and defense often create excruciating tension which can be released with almost no warning at any time. In a 1-0 game in the eighth inning, every pitch and every play is important. A two run home run by the team with the lead puts the game out of reach while a two run home run by the trailing team turns the game around. baseball • world series • boston red sox • st. louis cardinals • offense
On the Radio Of greater significance was the discovery that I could actually listen to games that were being played elsewhere. Speak about opening a case full of worms.

Predestined? Part of baseball’s magnetic appeal is that in almost every game there are unique variations on familiar themes. Fortunate fans see things they have never seen before while even more fortunate fans may experience seeing things that no one has ever seen.

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. cy young • yankees • hall of fame • national league • walter johnson

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. mlb • baseball • news • highlights
