George Steinbrenner lost his life this morning, seeing David Ortiz win the derby gave him a heart attack. He will be missed.

The history of a game between the Indians and Tigers that occurred June 2nd, 2010 could be read a whole lot differently and with better spirits than it will be written. Two men will forever go into the record books with blemishes on their record, one much more egregious than the other.

A single play at a base isn’t always reason to completely rethink the approach to integrating technologies into a game whose professional history runs deep into the 19th century. I just don’t think it’s correct to accept the idea that human error is a part of the game when it comes to the rules that govern that game. We have the ability to implement these technologies, they merely need expansion.

Los Dodgers, that's what the signs say right?

Tommy Lasorda is many things. Pitcher. Coach. Executive. Hall of famer. Porn and hooker enthusiast. But today, he’s just another asshole in a sombrero. Happy Cinco de Mayo.

Don’t tase me, bro.

Nice knockoff championship tee, diq.

Hilarious.

This happened two days ago and everybody else already covered it, but here’s the cold hard facts: the kid and the cop who got him with the taser are both faster than Shane Victorino. Of course, this kid might wind up wearing a giant helmet for a while if you listen to over-protective ninnies like Woody Paige, but that just makes it funnier. Bonus: he was the only sober 17-year-old at the game.

UPDATE: Another guy ran onto the field at a Phillies game yesterday, didn’t get tased, isn’t nearly as amusing.

I spent half my morning trying to fix some code here so I may as well post something. Loudville has a new voicemail hotline: 732-646-LOUD

How ’bout those Mets? First in the NL East and they beat down on the Phillies 9-1 last night. Outstanding. If only they could keep it up all year… can you imagine if they had a manager who seemed like he knew what he’s doing? The Yankees won too, and the Rays and Sox lost so it’s like two wins in a day for the Bombers. Bonus. Oh, and Dany Heatley got his first playoff goal of the season on Thursday. He’s an all-star.

I wasn’t really looking to blog today so I’m going to cut it here with another “history will be made” video, this one on the Sean Avery rule.
