I speak for the people, the downtrodden, the nerds. Those that love baseball so much they failed [...]

April 4th, 2011: Amazing hidden camera footage of what appears to be CBS announcer Jim Nantz rehearsing his final buzzer Nantzisms as he drives to Reliant Stadium in houston. (Or what I think is going through his head). Ode to Jim Sackel for inspiration.

An ode to every MLB video I’ve ever watched.

There’s really no good reason Manny Ramirez should ever be chasing a wiffle ball bat for someone, we don’t know why he did it for us, but he did. Thanks Manny. The AP says what this is better than we could. “Gar Ryness is known as the ‘Batting Stance Guy’. He does impressions of major leaguers in their batting stances. Dodgers outfielder Manny Ramirez loved his mimickry.” “Loved” is a relative term. Enjoy.

New York Mets LF Lucas Duda won the 2010 Mets minor leagues organizational MVP award. His time in the bigs has been a mixed bag, but fans love his size and I love The Goonies…both come together for Rookie Watch 2010!

Last night’s rain-out only mounts the tension for what should be a dynamite double-header today at Comerica Park. Yesterday we got you Tigers fans in the mood with Verlander’s heroics. Today we’re here for the Twins’ fans with perhaps the greatest moment in your franchise’s history, and the last time you were in the World Series. Enjoy all the action in motown today folks.
28. September 2009
Tonight the Twins and Tigers kick-off a four game series in Detroit that will most likely decide the AL Central. With neither team in wild card contention, the stakes are high. The good people of motown gotta feel good about this one being a home series. Tomorrow night, they’ll feel even better if Justin Verlander has an outing like June 12th, 2007. BSG is here to help your remember it.

You know who we love, the Milwaukee Brewers. And we’re not gonna lie, we’re pretty sure the feeling is mutual. Check it out as BSG goes on the field at Miller Park for a little pre-game entertainment in the warm-up circle. Enjoy!

It’s that time of week again folks. Not that you’ve actually been waiting for it or that we do anything on any kind of actual schedule that you could follow if you wanted to, but nevertheless, the time has come. For what you ask? Why it’s Batting Stance Guy’s Who to Watch, and this week he’s giving you the breakdown on the best hitters to watch in the NL Central. Enjoy!
13. August 2009
Welcome to the first of our new semi-weekly series, BSG’s Who to Watch! We figured if you’d gone to all the effort to visit a site about a man who imitates batting stances, you might be interested in getting his take on the best stances to watch on your local FSN channel (shameless plug) this MLB season. So we’ll be breaking down a different batch of hitters each week, starting with the NL East. Enjoy!

Check out BSG’s interview yesterday with the Fabulous Sports Babe on 1040 ESPN AM in Tampa. Thanks to the babe for being an early supporter of BSG, and for having us on the show, and for being a great sports broadcaster, and for letting us use the interview, and for… you get it, we’re fans. Enjoy!

The winner of this week’s video poll, and the first of many FSN/BSG Classic Moments we’ll be sharing with you here on the site, is none other than the Kirk Gibson’s game winning HR off Dennis Eckersley in Game 1 of the 1988 World Series. It’s all there folks, the Magnum PI staches, the fist pumps, Tommy Lasorda’s gut, it’s really just as good as it gets. To make things extra fun, we’ve included the original footage. See if you can tell em apart. Here’s a hint, in the real game they used a ball. Enjoy!
