It's all about me (Part 2)

Here we go...

First Baseball Moment: The year was 2010. The month: October. The event: the 2010 NLCS. This was when I really started to follow baseball and when I fell in love with the Phillies. Before that, all I remember of MLB is a brief pause from flipping channels in a hotel room to watch a little bit of a Cardinals-Astros game and seeing a game a Camden Yards. And then our fall vacation coincided with the NLCS, and the rest is history...so many great moments from that series. Most memorable: Jayson Werth's long throw from right field to third base to nab the super-villain named Cody Ross.

Best Live Baseball Moment: First visit to Nationals Park, Memorial Day 2011. Seats at field level on the third based side, right smack in the middle of Citizens Bank South. Doc on the mound, Rollins, Howard, Utley and Polanco in the lineup. Great game, lots of lead changes. Booed Werth, “Rauuuuuul-ed” for Ibanez (remember him?) . Sooooooo much fun!

Best Walk off Moment: Wilson Ramos’s three run homer in the bottom of the ninth to cap a five-run comeback by the Nats. One of the many Nats games I listened to in my bed that first year…

Best Baseball Moment: Can’t pick! Everything!!!!!!!!!!

ESPN or MLB.com?: MLB.com all the way. The At Bat App is amazing, even if I just have the free version. Yes, I know, I’m a cheapskate. But I’m also 15…

Favorite Ballpark Food: Soft Pretzels. That is all.

Radio or TV? We don’t have TV, so radio!

Favorite Baseball Blog: SweetSpot by David Schoenfield. So many good things…oh, and You Can’t Predict Baseball is hilarious.

Favorite Podcast: Well, it was Baseball Today…I listened to it religiously…until ESPN terminated it L. So now it’s a toss-up between Keith Law’s Behind the Dish, and the Fantasy Focus Baseball Podcast. Enjoy both J

Writers I look up to: Well, both of these two’s pieces are ESPN insider, and since I don’t have insider I can’t read them, Eric Karabell and Keith Law.  Yes, this is 2/3 of the old Baseball Today Crew.  These two have molded me as a baseball blogger so much, and I do really look uo to both of them! Maybe if any of you readers have Twitter, you can tweet this post to them! I would really appreciate it!

Well… that’s all for today! We’ll see if I drop something else this week. My Rays fan family is coming up from FL this week so I won’t have much time.

Sayonara!

It's all about me :) (Part 1)

Hello there,
So today I'm going to let you guys know a little bit more about me. I'm going to go with an interview type format, like "best this" or "favorite that". Here goes nothing...

Favorite team: Got to get the easy ones out of the way! The Phillies, obviously :P

Second favorite team: The Nationals...moving on...

3-4-5 teams: Giants, Rays, and for now the Red Sox (in no particular order).

Favorite players: Roy Halladay <3 Michael Morse :) Ian Desmond :D J-Zimm B-) Dustin Pedroia, Buster Posey, and many many many more....

Favorite defensive player: Roger Bernadina (The Shark) A-MAZ-ING in 2011!
                                                   
Most despised player: A-Rod....ew... doesn't he belong in Hollywood by now...

Most annoying player: Anyone with the last name of Upton. Giancarlo Stanton a close second

Favorite Rookie: Well if Dom Brown was a rookie I would go with him, but I guess Matt Harvey...I really don't know...all my favorite rookie played last season.

That's all for part one :) I will be away until Friday but I will try to write part two while I 'm on vacation and post it as soon as I get back :)

Well...

It's been more than a year since this blog has come into existence! Wow, I can't believe it! Sharing my thoughts with you guys has been so much of a blast, and I hope you all have enjoyed it as much as I did! Over the past year and a couple days, this page has had more that 850 views. That's more than two views a day!!!!!!! So a couple things that will hopefully make year number two as enjoyable as year number one!

1. I'm not sure if I will do recaps for everyday like I did last year, or more pieces on other things like specific players. Feel free to leave a comment on which you prefer.

2. I've got a couple updates in the works. Can't let you know what they are just yet...but I'm super excited to share them with y'all!

3. I'm going to tease it up  for my next big post...which will hopefully drop sometime this week.  Let's just say: It's about me :) So y'all can get to know me better!

Once again, thank you so much for reading and supporting my blog! You guys are my motivation to keep posting!
