  • Fredi’s Gone: Yesterday’s Scores That Matter [WMQ]

    Florida inexplicably went and replaced their manager, Fredi Gonzalez, yesterday and Edwin Rodriguez stepped in as interim manager. I still don’t understand why this happened, but I guess we’ll have a new manager next year. 23 June NPB Hanshin Tigers (9) at Hiroshima Carp (4). I was really hoping that Hiroshima would have a better […]

  • Marlins at Orioles: Yesterday’s Scores That Matter [WMQ]

    I just can’t miss seeing the Fish when they’re in town. I let nothing stand in my way, even the dental surgery I had last night. It was with a sore jaw that I saw them rock Baltimore last night. New York got its chance to beat up on the Orioles and the Indians to […]

  • Only One Game: Yesterday’s Scores That Matter [WMQ]

    Try not to be too disappointed Min, but there was only one game. 21 June NPB None MLB Kansas City Royals (1) at Washington Nationals (2). Liván Hernández returned to form against a weak Royals squad to end the losing streak. Washington’s win doesn’t take them out of last, but it puts them at 32-39, […]

  • I Saw A Game At Wrigley: The Weekend’s Scores That Matter [WMQ]

    Lots of action this weekend, including a game I attended in the Friendly Confines that will not be mentioned because I don’t cover the Cubs or the Angels. 18 June NPB Yakult Swallows at Hiroshima Carp. Rain delayed. Rakuten Eagles at Chiba Lotte Marines. Rain delayed. MLB Chicago White Sox (2) at Washington Nationals (1). […]

  • He’s Practically a Planeteer [Embedded Reporter]

    Another week means another Rooster Teeth short that will annoy Eric because it auto-plays on my webpage. This, my favorite RT short so far, covers the oil spill.

  • Traveling: Yesterday’s Scores That Matter [WMQ]

    Gonna see the Cubs this weekend! 17 June NPB Nope MLB Washington Nationals (3) at Detroit Tigers (8). Deja vu. Atilano loses again. Change of scenery tomorrow, but this sweep was ugly. 31-36 in last. Texas Rangers (6) at Florida Marlins (4). Ricky Nolasco just hasn’t been the same in so long. Guy gets two […]

  • Still So Behind: RT To Compensate [ER]

    I’m still super behind on my posting, so today you get a bonus Rooster Teeth Short to bide your time. This one is probably my second favorite episode (so far) this year, so be sure to watch it.

  • Everyone Loses: Yesterday’s Scores That Matter [WMQ]

    The sad panda is sad like me because every team I follow lost last night. 16 June NPB Still chillin’ MLB Baltimore Orioles (3) at San Francisco Giants (6). Lincecum only strikes out ten, which is a statement I heard one of my softball teammates utter yesterday. Guess what, buddy. 10 is GOOD. 10 > […]

  • OK Go’s New Video [ER]

    It’s not quite as ambitious as the giant Rube Goldberg machine nor is it as polished as “WTF?”, but OK Go’s latest music video for “End Love” is a return to their old, quirky “A Million Ways” and “Here It Goes Again” ways. I already love it.

  • Frustration: Yesterday’s Scores That Matter [Wednesday Morning Quarterback]

    The Marlins drop a game they should have won in the 9th inning. It’s just disheartening. 15 June NPB Still finishing up interleague make-ups. MLB Washington Nationals (4) at Detroit Tigers (7). John Lannan just does not have a great outing. Can’t do much about that. Washington drops to 31-34 in last. Texas Rangers (3) […]
