Baseball

Forget Derek Jeter or Mike Trout -- here's a baseball star we should all admire.

The 85th Major League Baseball All-Star game will be played at Target Field in Minneapolis on Tuesday, July 15th. Here are some things you may not know about the All-Star game. The first game was played on July 6. 1933 in Chicago and Babe Ruth was the first player to hit a home run in All-Star game history.

The home of the Minnesota Twins, Target Field, will host the All Star game on July 15th, Target Field is also the home of Major League Baseball’s first beer vending machine. It’s called DraftServe and there is only one on site but a second will be added by the time the All Star game is played.

Seems it is every little boys dream is to become a professional baseball player and that dream often starts in Little League. This year marks the 75th anniversary of Little League baseball, started by Carl Stotz in Williamsport, Pennsylvania.

When I was a kid, I brought my baseball glove in hopes of getting a foul ball at Fenway Park. However, we always seemed to have bleacher seats with no chance of getting a ball sent our way. This young fan at a Texas Rangers game, has great seats and even better moves!

It’s still early in the Major League Baseball season with most teams only having played 18 games but let’s take a look at the standings in the American and National Leagues. I’m only going to go through the first three in each league but if you want to see the entire Division you can click on the link at the bottom of the story.

Is it just me or do a couple of members of the Boston Red Sox look like someone famous in country music? I was watching the Opening Day game yesterday and they looked awfully familiar.... Could it be?

Scotty McCreery was all set to see his beloved Boston Red Sox at the White House today, but it all went wrong, thanks to American Airlines.

For the majority of Major League Baseball, the season starts today. Fans of teams all over the country have hop that this will be the year. Our team, Boston, was proof of that last season, after a disastrous 2012 season they won it all last year.

With Major League Baseball ready to get underway there are so many different predictions on who will win the division races. Some are predicting the Boston Red Sox to win the American League East again this year but more ‘experts’ seem to be leaning toward the Toronto Blue Jays or the Tampa Bay Rays.

The baseball season is here! I love baseball, in fact, I plan my summer vacation around going to Fenway Park to catch the Red Sox. I also have been known to make a trip or two to Hadlock Field to watch the Portland Sea Dogs! It's always fun to try and predict which teams will make it to the post season.

After the long winter and the snow that has piled up, Major League Baseball groundskeepers are working hard to get fields ready for play. Frost on some fields is being measured in feet not inches. Boston Red Sox groundskeepers feel confident they can have the Fenway field ready for the home opener on April 4th.

Take me out to the ballgame, take me out to the park, peanuts and popcorn and cracker jacks and now an 18-inch corn dog! Fans of the Arizona Diamondbacks can try the new 'D-Bat Dog' this coming season!

Since 2008 Garth Brooks’ ‘Friends in Low Places’ has been played during the 6th inning at Kansas City Royals baseball games. Now, fans at Kauffman Stadium will be asked to vote on a replacement song. The team and stadium decided it’s time for a change.
