Sandberg making his mark already
PHILADELPHIA — After Phillies third base coach Ryne Sandberg got the green light from manager Charlie Manuel, he gathered the players together to talk about them taking more infield and pitchers fielding practice (PFP) and the outfielders spending...Tags: Minor League Baseball, Joe Blanton, Jim Thome, Laynce Nix, Sports

Giants' success more than following lucky stars
Before they became the best organization in baseball, the Giants were Barry Bonds' team. They seemed unable to break free from the flawed slugger for a long time, sticking with the disgraced star for six years after his record-setting 2001 season....

Darvish-Suzuki matchup should make for great theater
ARLINGTON, Texas — On the other side of the globe, a nation will turn to video screens big and small at about 7:10 Monday night — or, 14 time zones away, 9:10 a.m. Tuesday in Tokyo. Yu Darvish, almost certainly the best pitcher ever in Japan,...

Orioles have now beaten themselves three times this season
Beautiful blue sky at Camden Yards on Sunday. Not a cloud in sight. In fact, it was so beautiful it helped cost the Orioles a win. Here's what you take from that 4-3 loss to the Minnesota Twins: The Orioles are 3-3 to start the new season. And in all...

Baseball is not a collision sport
The National Football League is taking steps to minimize the risk of concussions and other head injuries. So is the National Hockey League. So is Major League Baseball -- but it can do more without hurting the game. Baseball long ago cracked down on...

Chris Davis wants to go from defensive disappointment to 'Team Gold Glove'
SARASOTA, Fla. — Chris Davis blames himself. He came to the Orioles in 2011 with the reputation of being a pretty good defensive first baseman during his formative years with the Texas Rangers, but he never looked comfortable at first base last...

Taking it on faith that Notre Dame's 8-0 record is real
Unbuckling the mailbag: Question: I completely understand that you are the biggest USC honk in the land, but… the whole rest of the country is jumping on the ND bandwagon and you are being dragged behind in the dust. When are you going to give the...

Orioles went from having a disastrous defense to a Golden group

Phillies free agent, trade options — what would you do?
Picture this: Charlie Manuel and Ruben Amaro Jr. sitting around a large table with other front office members and scouts who are armed with a myriad of statistics, entrenched opinions and passionate voices. Don't, though, think for a second that Manuel...

Awful season aside, Cubs on the right track
Nineteen cents. That's what tickets in the third row of Section 533 were advertised at on StubHub Monday afternoon. As for the rest of Wrigley Field, it looks like most of those tickets couldn't be given away. No surprise there, not with the Bears...

Duquette and Showalter keep pushing the right buttons to keep Orioles winning

Frandsen, Kratz making most of their chances
PHILADELPHIA — With a disabled list that has been overflowing with Phillies most of the season, the last thing you wanted was for Carlos Ruiz and Placido Polanco to join the list of visitors. Ruiz was among the league's top hitters when he went...Tags: Minor League Baseball, Placido Polanco, Injuries and Wounds, National League East, Major League Baseball
