Rick Ankiel Threw A Strike From Center Field
Houston's Jordan Schafer had 22 stolen bases last year, so he's not slow. But even he wasn't about to tag up and test the arm of Rick Ankiel, who showed the Astros' prudence to be warranted by hitting the catcher on the fly. Perhaps it wasn't strictly a strike (unless Larry Vanover was working the p...

Delonte West's been a source of our amusement for some time, but his antics have run him afoul of the law—and NBA referees—more often than not.

Bobby Valentine Is Now Openly Antagonizing Kevin Youkilis
Kevin Youkilis has had a rough start to his 2012 season. He's hitting .200/.265/.223, and the Red Sox are 3-5. (CLARIFICATION: They were 3-5 when Valentine gave this quote. They're 4-5 now.) But it's the smallest of sample sizes, and the Red Sox got off to a bad start last year and everything work...

Inside The Mind Of NBC's Pervy Cameraman: "BOOBS!"
NBC's Stanley Cup playoff coverage is fantastic; the product they air on TV is great, but the extra camera feeds they offer online add an additional degree of coverage for those truly passionate about hockey.

This Young Pens Fan Brought Her Teddy Bear To Last Night's Game. The Bear's Name? "Miller Lite."
Kids give their stuffed animals crazy names. When I was little, I had a stuffed bunny named "Ted Kennedy."

There's A New Dunk Of The Year Candidate, And It's This Durant-To-Westbrook Alley-Oop
Okay, so we're getting a bit repetitive. First this was the dunk of the year, then this was in the running too.

Red Sox catcher Kelly Shoppach has played eight major league seasons for three teams, never once even attempting to steal base.
