Please enjoy the brilliance of Hall of Famers Carlton Fisk and Vin Scully on one of the most unusual double plays you’ve ever seen in your life during this 1985 game from Yankee Stadium

This is absolutely incredible.

There’s been so many Greg Maddux clips for this upcoming documentary and I shit you not this is by far the best shit you’ll hear all day

The Clearwater Threshers anointed a new bat dog, Lily, tonight. It didn’t exactly go as planned… It’s Single-A for the Bat Dogs, too!

dozens of teams have made videos where players walk by and respond to a prompt. in the entire history of these videos, Keon Coleman is the first player to walk by, turn around, post up in front of the camera and continue participating in the prompt for the love of the game

We had on a fan favorite, @ZierMike, about starting practice at midnight tonight.

Fred McGriff's HOF candidacy on the BBWAA ballot was one of the great casualties of the steroid era. Early in his career, he won a HR title in each league, leading the AL with 36 homers in 1989 and the NL with 35 in 1992. After that, he continued to average more than 30 HR per 162 games for the remainder of his career, but those annual totals went from being near the top of the league to not even being halfway to the top of the league as steroid merchants began hitting 50, 60, and even 70 homers a year. I had two major gripes with the mishandling of his candidacy on the BBWAA ballot (besides the obvious fact that he never received the 75% of the vote necessary for induction): 1. Eligibility to remain on the ballot was decreased from 15 years to 10 years while he was on the ballot, so instead of being grandfathered in, he saw his maximum stay on the ballot drop by 1/3 right away (which I found unfair); and 2. The writers seemed to want to have it both ways, punishing the PED users whose gargantuan numbers completely reshaped the record books while simultaneously punishing McGriff for not putting up as gaudy numbers as the PED users (which I also found unfair). The good news is that the Crime Dog's story has a happy ending, and he was ultimately elected to the Hall of Fame by the Era Committee, going a perfect 16 for 16 on those ballots and becoming just the second player ever to receive 100% of the vote on a Veterans'/Era Committee ballot (the great closer Lee Smith being the first). Durable, powerful, a cleanup man's cleanup man. And now, finally, a Hall of Famer.

The don't make 'em like this anymore, that's for sure.

“He would still have 440 homers and 359 stolen bases, which no other player has.” Stat of The Day📊 📺 youtube.com/live/0AD9rxNn3…

On July 29, 1989, Rickey Henderson didn't take a single official at-bat, but he drew 4 walks, stole 5 bases, and scored 4 runs despite going 0 for 0 in the box score. That's the kind of unique offensive threat Rickey posed to opponents. You could pitch around him if you wanted to, sure, but the joke was going to be on you every time. Rickey maintained a .401 OBP for a full quarter of a century in the big leagues. He stole at least 100 bases in a season 3 times. He led the majors with 66 steals in his age-39 season. That's the kind of unique offensive threat Rickey posed to opponents. Some more mind-blowing Rickey gems courtesy of @Stathead: He stole a ton of bases • Games with at least 1 SB: 1035 (most ever) • Games with at least 2 SB: 280 (most ever) • Games with at least 3 SB: 71 (most ever) • Games with at least 4 SB: 19 (most ever) He had a combo of power and speed • Games with 1+ HR and 2+ SB: 11 (most ever) • Games with 1+ HR and 3+ SB: 4 (most ever) He also had a great eye • Games with 2+ BB and 2+ SB: 97 (most ever) • Games with 3+ BB and 3+ SB: 5 (most ever) • Games with 4+ BB and 4+ SB: 1 (tied for most ever) Ultimately, scoring runs is how you win ballgames; always has been, always will be. And nobody touched home plate more times than Rickey Henderson. Oh, and spoiler alert: if you walk him, he's going.

I’ll tell you what, he’s a LOT closer to the top of the list than most people realize. He literally scored THOUSANDS of runs. He was a nightmare of an at-bat for pitchers and he ran wild on the bases. Rickey Henderson was the most unique offensive force the game has ever seen.

Jerry West lived a profound basketball and American life — iconic as a player, executive and looming figure in the history of the game. He was an MVP, a champion, a gold medalist, a dynasty-builder and literally the league’s logo. His loss leaves a massive void.
