Baseball Better In Person, In My Opinion [VIDEO]

Greg Splashin' McShea — Thu, 04 Apr 2013 14:10:16 +0000

Over the years, I've been to a few Major League Baseball games, from Fenway Park and Yankee Stadium to Nationals Park in Washington, D.C. In my opinion, there's nothing like being there. Baseball on TV can be a slow-moving game, with camera's generally focused on the pitcher/batter, and wherever the ball is hit. But, when you're at the ballpark, you see all that's going on.

At Big Frog 104, we like a good laugh and know that you do too. So, I'm starting a new feature called "Just For Laughs". I called it that...just for laughs. With the baseball playoffs here, I thought a funny video with a baseball theme would be in order. Here's a hilarious interview with Billy Crystal as "Fernando", a character based on the Argentine-born actor Fernando Lamas back in the 1980's. And guess who he is interviewing!

Big Bucks In Babe Memorabilia

Greg Splashin' McShea — Tue, 29 May 2012 14:10:59 +0000

We all have our favorite teams and players. Mine is, well...let's look at one of many people's favorite teams, the New York Yankees. And, according to ESPN, Babe Ruth is still the most wanted name in baseball memorabilia. Recently, a baseball jersey worn by the "Bambino" sold for more that $4.4 million, based on SCP Auctions in California (Don't worry New York fans, it was a 1920 Yankees uniform top, not a Red Sox jersey from when he played there).

Happy 100th Anniversary Fenway Park

Greg Splashin' McShea — Fri, 20 Apr 2012 17:10:36 +0000

There probably isn't a more iconic ballpark in Major League Baseball than Fenway Park, home of the Boston Red Sox. When someone refers to "The Green Monster", you know they're not talking about "The Incredible Hulk". Yes, the "House That Ruth Built', the former Yankee Stadium was legendary, but they tore it down. On this day, April 20, 1912 Fenway Park opened, and the rest is history.

Please Yankee fans don't blame me, my wife made me do it. She was brought up just outside of Boston and told me early on in our relationship that I had better become a Red Sox fan "If I knew what was good for me" or something like that. So, Yankee fan, here is a glimpse of what you would encounter if you ever ventured into that cursed land called "The Red Sox Nation".
