Interview: Minnesota Twins Scout Cary Broder

Interview: Minnesota Twins Scout Cary Broder

I am interested in all aspects of the baseball world. One that brings more interest than most is the world of scouting.

Interview: Passionate Baseball Fan from Korea – Kihoon Jung

Interview: Passionate Baseball Fan from Korea – Kihoon Jung

The one thing I have learned watching baseball in Korea is the fans are passionate. It is a great thing to watch, especially coming from a place where most fans are fair weather fans only coming out when the team is winning.

Interview: Gar Ryness The Batting Stance Guy

When I was a kid I would stand for hours in the back yard going through all-star lineups.  I would be Will Clark and Dale Murphy, and I know I was horrible at it but it was fun.  Even in the batting cages now it is fun to be Julio Franco or Will Clark.  I [...]

A Look at the World Series in the Year of the Dragon

23 January 2012

It’s a quite day here in South Korea. It’s Lunar New Year so almost everything is closed and the streets are quieter than most days. It’s cold outside and I have been huddled inside my apartment passing the time by blogging, reading, and watching some TV. I threw on Moneyball because I didn’t have much [...]

Major League Baseball Will Miss Drayton McLane

23 January 2012

Major League Baseball will miss Drayton McLane, former owner of the Houston Astros. He was simply one of the good guys in the game and not enough can be said about how this game could use more men like him. Too many times we read of an owner who is meddling with the team and [...]

And Then There Was One…..Game Left That Is

28 September 2011

And we were down to one.  After 161 games, the Atlanta Braves and the hated (at least by this blogger) St. Louis Cardinals are tied with a single game to go. So what will happen over the next 24-48 hours? Whatever it is, it will be fun to watch. What looks good for Atlanta: 1. [...]

I Miss Watching Baseball Regularly

I Miss Watching Baseball Regularly

19 September 2011

I can’t remember a year where I watched less baseball than this year, and I don’t like it. I miss being able to come home from work, relax, and catch a game on TV. Summer here in Korea is my busiest time of the year at work so I get to watch even less. When [...]
