by Kent Rogers Looking back at this game, I wonder why I didn’t see more balls fly out of the ballpark. I was back in Texas again (smarter this time by scheduling my meetings there for April instead of the middle of the summer) and as usual our night our started with some good natured [...]
by Joseph Terrazas This story is NOT about the game between the Royals and the Texas Rangers on August, 13th 1990. But it IS about what happened that night……. The Pine Tar Bat, It was David against Goliath, The Team from a small midwestern town challenging the might Yankees in New York. They brought in [...]
by Donald M. This was the year the Newark Bears won the Atlantic League Championship, and we took the ride up to Bridgeport one night for a game. If you’ve read any of the minor league baseball stuff on this site you know by now that I think it’s the best value in sports, and [...]
by Joseph Terrazas We took the 300 miles drive up to Arlington at the ex-minor league stadium that the Texas Rangers played at, it was a very wide open stadium – long fences. You can tell by my picture of Gibson how deep the fences are. I was telling the kids about Kirk Gibson who [...]
by Kent Rogers It was my first business trip to Texas in the summer and they told me everyone down there dressed “real casual cause of the heat”. Well, bring from up east, I figured that meant no tie, but me and my dumb (can I say ass?) threw on a blue suit, hopped on [...]
By Donald M I love Minor League Baseball and wrote a Stusbtory a little while ago about a game I was at with between the Somerset Patriots and the Camden Riversharks. It was one of a series of Minor League games among which was with this game from Yogi Berra Stadium, and the New Jersey [...]
by Donald M. I was happy to get a ticket to any part of the All-Star celebration at Yankee Stadium. And to be honest I was surprised at how cool the Home Run Derby was. In the 1st round Josh Hamilton, who has been in and out of rehab a whole bunch of times set [...]
by Joseph Terrazas My boy Sonny & I made our yearly pilgrimage to Arlington to see my hometown team Kansas City and the Texas Rangers. The Rangers beat the Royals 8 to 7 in a close high scoring game. The Royals went on to win the World series that year anyway. But what’s funny, I’m a Rock-n-Roll [...]
by Joseph Terrazas. I HAD to take my kids to see the last game at the historic dome. As they were moving to a new retractable roof, Reliant Park. The Astros beat the Dodgers 3-0. The temperature was always around 73 degrees. And sound really carried well in there. I was too busy taking pictures [...]
by Joseph Terrazas What a Show! These were the best seats I ever had for a show, 13th Row. The stage was dark and a small curtained area was hit with spotlights from the back and a skinny figure was shadowing all kinds of moves then Tyler jumped out and the band appeared from a fog. [...]
