I’ve been keeping an eye on them. Just haven’t been able to watch all the games. It’s hard for me to watch as much sports as I used to with more obligations as I get older.

On April 25 in Baseball History...​
  • 1901 - In the American League opener at Detroit's Bennett Park, the Tigers used a monumental comeback to beat Milwaukee. Trailing 13-4 going into the bottom of the ninth, the Tigers scored 10 runs for a 14-13 victory.

  • 1904 - New York Yankees pitcher Jack Chesbro recorded the first of his 41 victories on the season, an American League record that still stands.

  • 1976 - Cubs center fielder Rick Monday rescued the American flag from two trespassers who tried to set it on fire in the outfield at Dodger Stadium. It happened in the fourth inning of a 5-4, 10-inning loss to Los Angeles.

  • 1977 - The Cincinnati Reds romped to a 23-9 victory over the Braves in Atlanta. The Reds tied a National League record by scoring 12 runs in the fifth inning off three Braves pitchers. George Foster had seven RBIs, five runs scored, two home runs, a double and a single.

  • 1995 - Major League baseball returned after a 257-day labor dispute as the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Florida Marlins 8-7.

They are going to suck this year. They only won 1 game last year so I guess the only way to go is up. They will be lucky to win 4 games imo.

During their "spring game" their stadium was almost packed. I guess w/the lost of players in the portal they'll be scratching their heads thinking they had a team for 2023.

All my drivers have retired or died. I don't watch much anymore. The only reason I watched some on Sunday was bc they were running at Talladega at 194 mph.

Guys I need your help. So my daughter is dating a guy that gets down when his team loses. He is a Tampa Bay fan of all their teams. They are about to be eliminated from the playoffs. She asked me how can she be supportive and not let it bother her when he is not in the best mood? I told her, just say it sucks but I don’t know what else to tell her.

Tell him to grow the F up & get real. Your team will never win'em all.
