This actually happened: Fan jumps OVER railing to make barehanded catch on foul ball in stands: atmlb.com/14gFejb
— MLB (@MLB) March 24, 2013

- Moments after this amazing catch an unknown man with an enormous baseball shaped head appeared from the crowd and forcibly removed this fan from the game. He was last seen being thrown into an unmarked van. In unrelated news the New York Mets have just announced they signed a new center fielder.

The World Baseball Classic - Yey or Nay ?

The World Baseball Classic: Multiple nations coming together for spirited, peaceful sporting events featuring many of professional baseball's most elite players sounds great right?

No, actually its horrible. 

Why should you know Eric Byrnes?

     I imagine right now you are either wondering who Eric Byrnes is, or you know who he is and are having a difficult time understanding why anyone is writing an article on a predominantly baseball related site about a guy who hasn't played baseball in years. All I can say is that by the time you finish this article, not only will you remember him, but you might actually become a fan of his. I know I am.

     He played in the MLB for 11 years. He played longest in Oakland, shortest in Colorado, worst in Baltimore, best in Arizona and strangest in Seattle. In 2005 he was dismissed by Baltimore who questioned his ability to be an effective player on an everyday basis.
