It's World Series week in Detroit, and you know what that means: Fans doing anything they can in a mad, desperate dash for tickets.

Look, It's That Guy Who Invented The Wave! Let's Get Him!
So The Wave turned 25 years old on Sunday, and get this: Someone is actually taking credit for it.

This Morning, It Seems Like Everyone Is Named Carlos
As usual when we watch a playoff baseball game involving our beloved Cardinals, we spent the first four innings of last night's Mets-Cardinals NLCS Game 4 pacing around the room, muttering to ourselves, randomly spitting out expletives and all together looking like anything but someone engaging in a...

For a while last night, it seemed like there was a pretty good chance that the Tigers/A's series would actually be over before the Mets/Cardinals game. The Cardinals posted a manly three-run ninth inning to finally win a 3-hour and 58-minute game that did not go into extra innings....
