The Minnesota Twins opened up Target Field with a bang yesterday, beating the Red Sox 5-2 and ushering in the open-air era. The end of the Metrodome has BSG wondering though; are these still the loveable, blue-collar Twins of old? One things for sure, with Mauer, Morneau, Nathan, and now Jim Thome, the Twins have the star-power, and perhaps the swagger, to make some noise in the AL this year. Enjoy!

Well folks, believe it or not, we're already one week into the 2010 MLB season. If you were still focused on the Butler Bulldogs, and watching the return of El Tigre at Augusta, worry not, BSG's got you covered. From Jason Heyward's first-at-bat HR to Obama's opening day "pitch," he's got all the highlights from around the league. Watch, learn, and enjoy!

They kicked off the 2010 season in style tonight at Fenway. America's two most beloved/hated teams are at it again, and BSG is here to get you up-to-date on the stances to watch for in this year's rendition of their age-old rivalry. Enjoy.

Well folks we're just 5 days out from Opening Day, and we hope you're as excited as BSG is for the start of the season. Thankfully, the offseason gave him a chance to heal from leg injuries incurred while imitating San Francisco Giant Eugenio Velez. A word to the wise, stretch first. Filmed last year for G-Mag, here's BSG with Velez, the Panda, and the rest of the feel-good 09 Giants. Enjoy!

Yes folks, the rumors are true, the man of a thousand stances is coming to a bookstore near you. We are excited to announce that, Batting Stance Guy : A Love Letter to Baseball, is available for pre-order, and will hit the bookshelves on May 11th. For anyone who's watched BSG's backyard stance videos and thought to yourself, "that guy should have a book," your day has come.

While down in Tampa for RaysFest, BSG caught up with our friends from Boston, the good people at WEEI. They asked for his take on the new sluggers they'll be seeing in Red Sox uniforms this year. So here they all are, in all their pre-Fenway innocence, Bill Hall, Mike Cameron, Marco Scutaro, Jeremy Hermida and Adrian Beltre. Enjoy!

BSG was down in Tampa for RaysFest last weekend, and our good friend the Fabulous Sports Babe was good enough to have him back on to discuss the start of the 2010 season. Enjoy!

We know things have been a bit sparse round here as we wait for pitchers and catchers to report, so if you're just hankering for a dose of BSG head on over to the Hall of Very Good to check out his latest interview with our good friend Shawn Anderson. Heck, just head on over there anyways, the guy is funny and he writes good stuff. Enjoy!

While the Marlins attempt to peddle their All-Star 2nd baseman, we take a look back at one of the moments that helped make him such a valuable commodity.

Chris Johnson joined the 2,000 club yesterday. Congrats, but Nolan's number was bigger, and his club is still more exclusive.

The ground's crew was happy the Cardinals won the game, they just wished it could've happened on a different night.

Congrats on an amazing career unit!

Remember when the Pirates' went to 3 consecutive NLCS's... and lost all 3? In 1992, this Francisco Cabrera pinch-hit single ended that run, the Bonds era in Pittsburgh, and the Pirates' relevance in major league baseball for the next 2 decades. Quite a hit. Enjoy!

There might be something lost in translation as BSG takes on the sheer physical specimen that was Bo Jackson, but you get the idea, Bo knows how to break a bat.

Steve Jeltz still can't believe he stayed on third for this one. Still gotta be one of the best game sheet paragraphs of all time. Straight from the baseball bloopers Hall of Fame, it's Paul O'Neill's 1989 left-footed punt to the infield. Enjoy.

What better way to celebrate the season than with the candy-striped 86 Astros and the "Greatest Game Ever Played." You keep that ball fair Billy Hatcher.

It's December, the winter meetings are in full swing, and BSG is back! We're kicking off a holiday run of FSN moments with everyone's favorite Mad Hungarian, Al Hrabosky. Enjoy!

Why the AL West now you may ask. The Angels clinched days ago, Texas is done for the year, and all eyes are fixed firmly on the AL Central race. Plus, didn't you guys already post the AL MVP Candidates? The short answer here folks is that there's not really too much method to the madness. But we also figured you might be looking for reasons to watch the last few games out west this season. So catch these guys before the weekend's over.

We got a good one going in Detroit folks. Yesterday the Twins and Tigers split the doubleheader to keep the Tigers 2 up. Today they start the 2nd half of their 4-game series at Comerica. The evening win for the Tigers yesterday was thanks in large part to a 2 run scoring double from a guy who's done it before for em. Have a look at the shot Magglio Ordonez hit in the 2006 ALCS to sweep the A's and take the Tigers to their first World Series in over 20 years.

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.

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.

We're gonna go out on a limb and say the Dodgers take the NL West. So to help get folks in a LA state of mind for the postseason, here's a little gem from 2006. Back to Back to Back to Back, and then Nomar walked off. Sure, only Martin remains, but we think this bunch still has what it takes. Enjoy!

Here they are folks, the big time players of the 2009 American League. Some you've met and know well. Some are new faces on the scene (Kendry Morales we're looking at you). Some we'll be seeing in October, and others... well not so much (Sorry Ben Zobrist and the Rays, we filmed this a couple weeks ago). But for now, in this moment, they're all right here in this week's Who To Watch. Enjoy!
