You can throw...

FARMINGTON — The celebration started moments after D-BAT Gallegos third baseman Noah Hill lifted his glove into the air, signaling he had caught the game-winning out of Friday's championship game against the Midland Redskins. Players from the Dallas-based team sprinted to the center of the infield, piling on top of each other and basking in the bliss of winning the Connie Mack World Series. Lost among the entangled arms and legs of the dog pile and drowned out by the cheers of the packed...

2015 Hall of Fame Inductees
There is lots of discussion on MLB TV about the 34 HOF candidates. I wanted to start a new thread to see what you guys think. I’m categorizing my 10 unofficial votes as lock, got a shot, longshot and not in my lifetime due to PEDs. Lock: Pedro Martinez, Randy Johnson, and Mike Piazza. In my mind, these guys clearly separated themselves from others. Piazza was the best offensive catcher ever. Pedro and Randy were both dominate for a long time.
