Meb's Yankees-Red Sox First Pitch Not Total Disaster
It can be tough for distance runners to use their emaciated upper bodies for most things other than ballast, but Boston Marathon winner Meb Keflezighi's first pitch at the Yankees-Red Sox game last night wasn't a total disaster. A little outside, sure, but just watch how the bottom drops out. ...
Michael Pineda Again Isn't Discreet About His Pine Tar, Gets Ejected
