Over The Fence

Are the baseball playoffs getting too big? And are rainouts still acceptable in the modern world?

Breaking down some new innovations to the game, an unsung player in history, how differently an inning was managed in another era and a uniform trend gone slightly awry.

Hershiser is tougher than you might think. Strawberry wants to play for the Dodgers. McCarver is the best in the business.. A twi-night playoff opener in paradise with two great pitchers

Astroturf. Chaw wads. Tequila Sunrise vs. Crimson zip ups. Gondola camera shots. Most importantly, one of the best playoff games ever!

Powder blues at home? Dark colored pants? All bets are off? Is this a good or a bad thing?

The Cleveland Team will soon have a name I'll actually like saying. Why I think this was a great choice.

Now's a good time for baseball reading. Here's a good one about (and by) one of the most fascinating players of all time.

How we can still distract ourselves with baseball in these difficult times.

No more cheating? Plus my thoughts on the possible playoff expansion.

The first of our Game One series takes us back to 1984, when the dominant Detroit Tigers faced the upstart San Diego Padres. Football energy crowd, bullpen benches on the field, pitchouts and the crazy way the DH was once used in the Fall Classic.

Kendrick does it again. Soto should be a household name. Nationals win championship.

Playoff Baseball is like baseball on caffeine. Where do the Yankees go from here. I care about this World Series! Mets manager search and off season free agent market.

Astros finish the job. Hats off to low rent Rays. Time for the heavyweight title match.

Nationals use the long ball to upset the NL apple cart. Classic round of playoff baseball.

Rays force a game 5. Was starting Verlander the smart choice? And if the Astros do make it to face the Yankees how does all this affect that series?

This is why you play the games. Nats push Dodgers to game 5. Plus Rays kick out of 3 count vs Astros.

The uniforms suck (but you already know that). My thoughts on what could work better.

It ain't all about selling and buying.

In the middle of the rumors. Anticipation but only one big deal so far.

Teams show who they are. Plus the legacy of Pumpsie Green and the continued struggles of Matt Harvey

The Split Season midsummer classic at the old "Mistake By The Lake"

The 2019 All Star Game in Cleveland was fun. Baseball. Fun!

A top heavy AL and an even keeled NL. Plus what are the Nationals doing wearing Expos uniforms?

This time of year belongs to baseball. Forget NBA free agency! Lol. Plus my thoughts on the potential of the Montreal/Tampa Bay Rays.

Is it a crime to celebrate a home run? If not, should it be?
