The Confidence Of Fernando Rodney Backfires

((HT: MLB.com))

When Mariners closer Fernando Rodney does well, he pulls out an arrow from his quiver and sends a shot into the air celebrating his closing...

Only problem... when you pitch more than an inning, this can happen if you don't keep it up


Boom...

Karma...

Mike Trout Hit The Ball Really Far

((HT: MLB.com))

Do not throw a 90-mile-per-hour fastball to Mike Trout or this will happen...


Longest home run of the year to date...

And a bad idea for any starting pitcher

This Week in Bad TV Graphics: KC Royals Style

((ht: awfulannouncing.com))

This is just painful.

Particularly to those of us who work in the TV business and take pride in making sure anything we put on the air is correct.

For those of you familiar with Sports, take a look at the screen grab on your right.

It's a graphic done for the Fox Sports Kansas City broadcast of Thursday's Royals game.

Look closely.

In no particular order: Bryce Hunter should be Bryce Harper. And notice the Detroit Tigers logo and Nationals cap.

Matt Jones. Nope. Should be Matt Harvey. and notice the Orioles logo. That despite the Mets cap.

Manny Machado. Well, they did get his name right, but check out the White Sox logo.

And then Mike Trout. Again, they did get the name right, but no, despite the Angels hat, they show him as playing for the Yankees.

C'mon guys, this is embarrassing.

Sure, we know that on occasion typos are made, we get that. Happens to everyone. But this is pathetic. Did you not even look at the graphic you were making?

Mike Trout Has Another First...

((HT: MLB/FS West))

He's the first player born in the 1990's to hit for the cycle...
5 RBI and his first cycle... at the age of 21...

Enjoy...

Not a bad catch by Mike Trout (Wow!)

In case any of you baseball fans haven't seen or heard of Mike Trout of the LA Angels, you should get familiar with him.

The other "Young Gun" rookie this year is arguably better than the more hyped Bryce Harper of Washington.

Check out the 20-year old commit what only can be called "Baseball Robbery" against Baltimore's J.J Hardy.
