Top Stories:

How good has Ubaldo Jimenez been this year? He’s 8-1 | 0.99 ERA | 58 SO.

In case you missed it, here is video of Hanley Ramirez displaying his lack of hustle. I don’t care how much talent a player has I’d never want someone like this on my team.

Great Comebacks: Last week the Atlanta Braves were trailing the Cincinnati Reds 9-3 in the 9th inning. The Braves ended up scoring 7 runs in the 9th, capped by a Brooks Conrad pinch-hit grand slam walk-off home run to come back and beat the Reds 10-9.

Rules That Make No Sense: No iPads allowed in Yankee Stadium.

On this date, seventy-five years ago, MLB played it’s first every night game.

Streaks and Standings:

Wins: Oakland A’s have won 3 straight and are currently 2 games out in the AL West.

Loss: San Francisco Giants have lost 5 in a row and are in 3rd place in the NL West.

Standings: For a complete listing of all the MLB standings go here.

Series of The Week:

I’m looking forward to the LA Dodgers vs. Colorado Rockies (May 28-30, 2010). It will be interesting to see how the Dodgers handle the Rockies pitching, especially with Andre Either out of the lineup.

Extra’s:

Below is the National Reviving Baseball in Inner Cities (RBI) commercial – Thank you. MLB does a great job with this program and the commercial below is one of my favorites.
