Ken Griffey Jr. ‘The Natural’ Claims Record HOF Vote!
#TheNatural #CooperstownBound Not Only did Ken Griffey Jr. make it into the HOF (Hall Of Fame) on his first bid, he received the most votes EVER (99.3%) eclipsing Mets’ legendary pitcher Tom Seaver (98.84%)! He received 437 of the 440 possible votes by the BWAA. Griffey’s swing was so natural, and field play so graceful, that when you thought of baseball your first picture was Griffey! He did it with his bat notching seven Silver Slugger awards, and on the ground receiving an amazing 10 consecutive Gold Gloves! Griffey also went to 11 consecutive All-Star… In a steroid latent era, he was considered holy
Yankees Trade Twins For Aaron Hicks!
The NY Yankees #upgraded their outfield by trading catcher John Ryan Murphy to the Minnesota Twins for center fielder Aaron Hicks earlier today. Hicks is a switch-hitter with a rifle of an arm in the outfield, even clocking 100mph catching players sneaking to home plate, and has some speed on the base path…Yankees’ trusty left fielder Brett Gardner may be the next to go; after a solid start and All-Star appearance, he went through a serious slump down the stretch last season.
Mets Beat Da Cubs And Advance To World Series!!!
The NY Mets beat the Chicago Cubs, 8-3, tonight to advance to the World Series and maybe win their first Championship since the 86′ Amazin’ Mets!!! The Mets swept the Cubs in the ALCS, and Daniel Murphy broke a postseason record hitting homeruns in six consecutive games! Murphy was also the unanimous ALCS MVP after hitting four homeruns in the sweep series! Back to the Future 2 was just a vision, and the Mets made sure it stayed in the movie script lol.
Mets Advance To NLCS With Nail-biting Win Over Dodgers!
#GoAmazin Honestly, I am a Yankees fan, but I still got love for the Mets! The NY Mets finished off the LA Dodgers 3-2 tonight in game 5 of the division series to advance to NLCS! Daniel Murphy deeking deserted third base on a defensive shift was perhaps the play of the game, as he scored on a sac-fly on a next play to tie the game at 2! Murphy followed up in the sixth inning smoking a solo shot to put the Mets ahead for good 3-2!
Mets Win Citi-Field Playoff Debut Over Dastardly Dodgers; Utley Peers On!
The NY Mets posted a quite impressive 13-7 win over the dastardly Dodgers, last night, in the postseason Playoff Citi-Field debut! Over 44 thousand were in attendance! The Mets were excited to play the first game at Citi-Field in the Playoffs, and had pride riding hard for their injured second baseman Ruben Tejada who was decisively taken out (leg broken) in game 2 by Chase Utley’s ‘tackle’ slide! Curtis Granderson and Yoenis Cespedes teed off on the Dodgers making it look like tee ball instead of Major League Baseball!
Chase Utley Suspended Two Games For Controversial Leg-Breaking ‘Tackle’ Slide! [Video]
MLB badly messed up the call during gametime, but is attempting to make up for it after the fact! Tonight MLB suspended LA Dodgers’ Chase Utley two games for the controversial ‘tackle’ slide that broke NY Mets’ Rubén Tejada right leg last night! During the controversial play, Utley sort of side-kicked (leg tackled) way out of the baseline at Mets’ second baseman Tejada legs to break up any chance at a double play. Utley slid very late, and directly at Tejada…
