We’ve got the Rangers’ Fox Sports girls, David Price rolling his eyes, and Josh Hamilton closing his. We’ve got the highlights you won’t see on SportsCenter…
Joe is back with his postgame thoughts… OK, so the way Rays ace David Price has pitched of late, just getting this guy a pair of runs is enough to chalk up a win, no? How about three runs? How about four runs? How about five runs? Well, the Rays [...]
Marc Topkin is reporting that Sean Rodriguez broke his hand when he punched a locker in frustration after Sunday’s game with the Durham Bulls. Did I mention that this was a game that the Bulls won and Rodriguez had a double and a home run? Turns out there was some [...]
