Manny Machado Has A Decent Arm



Manny Machado just turned 21 on Saturday. He's on pace to beat Earl Webb's record 67 doubles in a season. But the highlight of his season might be this incredibly strong throw across the diamond. Not bad kid. Not bad at all.

Everett Golson Talks About His Future At Notre Dame



Well this makes me feel a little better. Not much. Get your shit together Golson. Too much is on the line to get kicked out of school when greatness is on the cusp of reality.

You Think Homer Bailey Gives A Fuck About His Second No-Hitter?



Spoken like a true professional. Homer Bailey, covered in shaving cream pie after pitching his second no-hitter of his career, could give a fuck about his measly walk in the 7th inning. You got to love the honesty.

Tony Soprano is Dead...RIP James Gandolfini



Tough news here for the SportsCrack family.  The Sopranos was our favorite show back in college.   Every Sunday night was must watch TV on HBO with James Gandolfini playing the iconic Tony Soprano.  Gandolfini was only 51 years old when he passed yesterday in Italy.  RIP big man.  You will be missed.

El Oso Blanco Breaks Bat Over His Back




The Redwood Forest wouldn't have a chance if El Oso Blanco resided in it much less a flimsy Louisville Slugger over his back.  Evan Gattis is a tough hombre.  All day strong.

Viva Puig...Puig Knows Shirt



In the immortalized words of Vin Scully: "VIVA PUIG!"  The Cuban sensation has taken over the baseball world in his first 4 career games.  Los Angeles can't get enough of Viva Puig so we figured a shirt was due.  The 5-tool athlete can hit the ball out of the park in all directions, gun out base runners from the warning track, and his all-around hustle has revived a team.

He's the new Bo Jackson.  Puig Knows.

Get the Viva Puig Shirt Here!

The Legend of El Oso Blanco



Courtesy of 680 The Fan's Rob Jenner comes this classic clip called "The Legend of El Oso Blanco."  Evan Gattis has already become the man, the myth, and the legend with his 10 homers, beard, rawdogging it with no batting gloves approach to hitting and the way his teammates love him.  The White Bear needed a great tribute and now he has one thanks to Jenner.  Well done sir.  Well done.

PS-I love the little dig they did on Yunel Escobar.  Whatever happened to that frosted tip d bag?

Koji Uehara Goes Pearl Harbor on Shane Victorino



I hope the Flyin' Hawaiian is okay after taking this blindsided high five from teammate Koji Uehara. I haven't seen that kind of surprise on a Hawaiian's face since Ben Affleck died in that awful Pearl Harbor movie. I'm kind of disappointed Koji didn't scream "BONSAI!" right before slapping Victorino. You gotta do it to keep up team morale right?  It's the American way after all or something like that.

Fun fact: I had no idea Uehara was still in the league.  He was one of my favorite Orioles a few years ago because he always seemed like a big team guy whether starting or coming out of the bullpen.  But what makes him a legend in Baltimore is he got traded to the Rangers for Tommy Hunter and some 25-year-old slugger Chris Davis.  Yes the same Chris Davis who leads the majors in home runs and extra base hits.  And now Hunter is the best arm out of the bullpen for the O's.  Not a bad trade at all for the Orioles.  Laughs maniacally.

Michael Bourn With The Charity Homer For Miguel Cabrera

Seriously Michael Bourn. I don't think the Triple Crown winner needs any more help. Hey we all fuck up here and there. It's just part of the game. But this was almost up there with Jose Canseco taking a header for a homer in terms of fuck ups. Laugh all you want Bourn but coach Lou Brown is not going to put up with this shit much longer.

This Deer vs Bus Video is Priceless

The dubbing in with sound is perfect. This is a 5 star Youtube video if I have ever seen one.

Evan Gattis With Another Pinch Hit Homer in the Bottom of the 9th



He may only be a rookie but there is little doubt El Oso Blanco is a living legend.  At this rate I can't wait to see the 30 on 30 special on Evan Gattis.  This is getting beyond a Hollywood script.  It's almost unfathomable what Gattis has done in the first quarter season in an Atlanta Braves uniform when just 3 years ago he was out of baseball.  Gattis was literally living in a van down by the river and now he is hitting Gattis Bombs in clutch situations in the Show.



Buy the original and still the best El Oso Blanco shirt here!

Some Guys Just Can't Handle Preakness



Spiderman he is not.  When you give 100,000 people an unlimited amount of beer and booze cases like Peter Parker here are bound to happen.  The good news is he is alive and barely kicking.  The bad news is his dignity has been lost for eternal YouTube satisfaction.

Hard To Believe It's Been 15 Years Since This Classic Orioles and Yankees Fight



These were the good old days.  When everybody was all hoped up on steroids and pitchers weren't afraid to throw inside.

Granted the Orioles Armando Benitez deserved a beating for hitting Tino Martinez intentionally with a straight 98 mph heater to the middle of the 2 and 4 but you don't see brawls like this anymore.  The Orioles and Yankees hated each other.  There was still bad blood over the whole Jeffrey Shitface kid robbing the Orioles of a playoff victory.  Daryl Strawberry was still a cocaine sniffing douche who couldn't land a punch to save his life even when it would have been a sucker one from behind.  Tino Martinez had no intention of fighting Benitez (who can blame him and it's only after the benches clear that Tino tries to fight) but it's funny that Bill Nye the Science Guy aka Graeme Lloyd comes all the way from the bullpen to start throwing awful haymakers at Benitez's mug.

Now that I think about it maybe Brady Anderson wasn't on steroids.  He's one of the few not even trying to fight.  He's calm and collected.  Of course so is Rafael Palmeiro and Chad Curtis and we know they were roiders.  Robby Alomar didn't even spit on anybody.  Hall of Famer Eddie Murray screaming at Strawberry in the dugout is the basically the ending to this classic.  It just sucks that it took the Orioles another 15 years to be relevant in the AL East because we could have had some classic showdowns instead of those overhyped ESPN fueled Yankees-Red Sox garbage games.

Shay Maria Dancing in a Bikini Looks Athletic



I have no idea who Shay Maria is but I don't care.  She just made Monday a lot more interesting.  I'm clearly talking about that awesome back tattoo.  Well done Shay.
