I feel bad for the people of Atlanta. If they'd only hung in there a little longer...

Can't wait for the upcoming documentary "My Travels With Pierre".

Thank goodness there's only one game scheduled in Canada.

Looking for a great book about this important event? Look no further than Baseball's Great Experiment by Jules Tygiel.

A "season-defining game"? Look no further.

One viewer's was...

"Holland: Our IR is our trade-deadline deals".

If Blue Jays Catcher J.P. Arencibia keeps having games like he did last last night, he's going to be on a first-name basis with all the ticket holders in the front row behind home plate. He should just take the solid advice of broadcasting legend (yes, I said it) Bob Uecker:

The way to catch a knuckleball is to wait until it stops rolling and then pick it up.

In a word, no.

Opinions are like an "Avery"; everyone has one.

I know why this man is smiling.

There's definitely stability with regards to his bank account.

I know this is at "arms length", but Tom Hanks is going to be doing a biopic on the life of "The Fifth Beatle", their manager Brian Epstein. The lead role will be played by Benedict Timothy Carlton Cumberbatch. This signing comes on the heels of him being in all three instalments of The Hobbit, being rumoured to be in Star Trek Into Darkness (as Khan), playing Julian Assange in The Fifth Estate, etc., etc. etc. He's even been in an episode of The Simpsons! Well played sir, well played!
