Two months after trading away Coco Crisp, the Oakland A’s spent the evening at home watching him play World Series hero with a pinch-hit single to score the winning run for Cleveland. Being only human—having a social media presence maintained by humans, at least—they then exhibited the very human behavior of scrolling…
Cubs fans will have to wait a little bit longer to witness the first World Series win at Wrigley in (almost) all of their lifetimes after losing a tense 1-0 game to the Indians Friday night.
Ji-Man Choi has spent this evening’s game hitting the daylights out of the baseball. He dinged a solo dong to right center in the second inning, then followed it up with a three-run shot to the right field corner.
Hanley Ramirez has gone from a man lost in left field to a pleasant surprise at first base with the Red Sox. He cares deeply about the area he covers, as evidenced in Monday’s game when Athletics outfielder Coco Crisp tried to alter the infield dirt.
The A's adopted the Bernie Lean as their rally dance last year, and it seems to have been worked. After Coco Crisp introduced the clubhouse to the song (actually, two songs: "Moving Like Berney" by ISA and "Bernie Lean" by ATM & IMD), and adopted the latter as his walk-up music, Oakland went on a late-season tear to…
The Oakland A's are in the middle of the pennant race and begin a fairly important series this weekend against the Baltimore Orioles. So, clearly, we are here to talk about the "Bernie Lean" video featuring various members of the Oakland Athletics, and ATM and IMD. (The Athletics were so proud of the video they sent…
The Oakland A's have adopted the "Moves Like Bernie" dance. This is a "dance" popularized by some rapper featuring a plot point from Weekend At Bernie's II (Bernie's back...and still dead!): Bernie, a corpse, gets hit with some crazy voodoo in the beginning of the film and everytime he hears music he half dances/half…
Maybe Covelli Loyce Crisp thought a Dodge pickup truck was beneath him. Or maybe the truck was full. There's a chance he just didn't want to leave his Rolls at a sushi joint or a Scottsdale, Arizona club called Smashboxx.
Your morning roundup for March 3, the day NFL lockout talk gets real.
Your morning roundup for Feb. 11, the day the White House has to play whatever cards they have left…
Everyone said Eric Wedge was crazy to train wild birds to chase down baseballs in the outfield and distract opposing outfielders. Well, who's the crazy one now, huh? Indians/Birds 1, Royals 0.
His real name is Covelli Loyce Crisp, but you knew that. What you may not have known, is that Coco Crisp's father was a boxer, and his mother was a champion sprinter. So the Red Sox outfielder's actions on Thursday — charging the mound and throwing haymakers after getting plunked by the Rays' James Shields in the…
Notes from a day in baseball:
The Red Sox have finally pulled the trigger on a deal to bring centerfielder Coco Crisp to Boston, where he is presumed to be taking over the leadoff spot once occupied by Johnny Damon.
