Pete Rose

We have just had inductions to the Hall of Fame and the ritual would not be complete without a mention of Pete Rose.

Starting in place of the injured Randy Johnson, Sanchez was making his first start after being demoted to the bullpen. Aaron Rowand made [...]

All-Star Team

Pitcher Dan Haren was a manager’s choice and outfielder Justin Upton was a player’s choice to be on this year’s NL All-Star team. J-Up is batting .300 with 45 RBIs and Danny is 8-5 with a 2.16 ERA and 119 K’s (as of the morning of July 6).

The game this year takes place at Busch [...]
