    NPB: Softbank Hawks will face Hanshin Tigers in Japan Series

    Byyankeebiscuitfan October 20, 2014

    Today the decisive seventh game in the Pacific League’s Climax Series was played between the Softbank Hawks and the Nippon Ham Fighers (Nippon Ham is the owner of the club.

    Too bad. This is the last contribution to this thread. After the W, there are no clubs with X, Y or Z available. I hope you liked it. It was a fun job to gather all the information. West Michigan White Caps: West Michigan Baseball, Inc. (as the fledgling team was then called) ran a…

        vs  The game between the St. Louis Cardinals and the team of batting coach Hensley Meulens went back and forth a couple of times. Both teams had a lead before it was tied in the eighth on a solo homer by Michael Morse; the Giants relied on the long ball very much last…

    Could a marriage between the Yankees and Omar Minaya actually work?

    Byyankeebiscuitfan October 14, 2014

    I know, I know, this is not something related to Dutch baseball. But since I am a Yankee fan, I allow myself to write something other than Dutch baseball alone, once in a while. I read a post on river avenue blues, a blog about the New York Yankees, that the Bronx Bombers are mulling…
