Zack Hample has snagged 9,234 baseballs at 52 different major league stadiums since 1990. Find out how and see what else he's been up to. If you’ve been reading my blog for some time, the name Ben Weil might sound familiar. Ben is a fellow ballhawk. We’ve ended up at lots of the same games. We’ve become really good friends. And I’ve mentioned him often. See if this rings a bell . . . At Game 3 of the 2011 World Series. After Game 5 of the 2011 ALDS. At a regular-season Marlins game. As it turned out, the...

Old Time Family Baseball. Over at Grantland, Ben Lindbergh has a fantastic piece on, wait for it, Derek Jeter’s defense. But this isn’t the same “Derek Jeter is bad and you should feel bad” article, this is one that, through the powerful tool of gif-age, shows just why Jeter doesn’t cut it. But, more importantly, the article. Click through for the whole thing. It’s worth the read. At the very least there are lots of pretty defensive plays. And that’s enough for me.

Old Time Family Baseball. The Arizona Diamondbacks have released an absolutely gorgeous Randy Johnson patch for when they retire his number this Saturday. That made me think of five other cap patches I would love to see. Like Nolan Ryan’s fight with Robin Ventura or a Craig Counsell batting stance cap. (Oh please, give me a Craig Counsell batting stance cap. I would give anything for it.). Other stuff for you to pay attention to:. The July trade deadline felt absolutely insane right? S, we were able to g...

Old Time Family Baseball. Institute for baseball studies. If you’re anything like me, your fascination with sports, and baseball in particular, is all about narrative. The story of the season, of the game, of the players and how they reflect and take part in your life is what makes the very random game interesting. He’s an incredibly interesting man and I think you should definitely take some time to read the interview. Some other stuff I’ve written recently:. And finally, good stuff that other. I play i...

Old Time Family Baseball. Happy early-July 4th everybody! Hope you deck yourselves out in red, white and blue and only drink beers that have floating hot dogs in them. And remember to drive safely and don’t light off any fireworks indoors. Before you run out for your long weekends and barbecue plans, why not look back at the 10 best moments from June baseball. Like Jeff Francoeur pitching. Or Max Scherzer literally being unhittable. Who knew they were on the prospect beat before anyone else! In case you ...

Old Time Family Baseball. I’ve been traveling through the East Coast for the last few weeks, which means seeing sports teams I don’t usually see! So while I type this instead of going to see the Bridgeport Bluefish (Thanks tornado warning! Enjoy a picture of Brett Pirtle and his amazing stirrups of the Single-A Connecticut Tigers. May I suggest that everyone get out there and watch Single-A baseball? You’ll never see more side-arming high-70s mph tossing pitchers. It’s great! It’s pretty nuts. Even bette...

Old Time Family Baseball. All-Star game was last month, and the playoff race doesn’t really. Get nuts for another few week, so now it’s time for the most important of things: Figuring out who has the best pitch in the Majors. After hours of debates, we narrowed the list down to eight pitchers: two fastballs, two curves, two sliders and two changeups. Click here to vote. Sadly, it’s not eight Jamie Moyers.
