Koby Clemens to Report to ValleyCats
The Tri-City ValleyCats announced today that Koby Clemens, son of Astros pitching ace Roger Clemens, will report tomorrow to finish the NYPL season, after starting his professional career in Greeneville of the Appalachian League. The 18 year old, 5'11' 200lb third baseman makes the move after batting .306 with 4 HR and a .491 slugging percentage in 32 games.
"Naturally we're excited to have him" said ValleyCats Manager Gregg Langbehn. "It's a great opportunity for him to play at a higher level and it's a great opportunity for guys on this team to play with him. He's a good player with a good arm and he plays hard. Those are all great qualities to have."

How 'bout those WHITE SOX!?!?!

White, Red, what's the difference, right? All I know is that they aren't any Yankees playing, so I am done with Baseball for the season.

I have not watched one game in the last 40 years. I liked it when I was in grade school. Then I just never got back into it. That has happened a lot with me.

Hoosierguy good luck with your team!

Good to see 200+ million dollars a year to buy talent , still doesn't mean you can win the world series
Sorry CC
Maybe Steinbrenner can buy the redskins , and see if he can win a superbowl .....LOL and I hate the redskins too !

Steinbrenner gets on my nerves!

Oh by the way... The Cardinals won the World Series. Go figure...

Who?

Them

Oh, right......

I love to play baseball with my friends and family.

Are you the pitcher? You should see if you can get on a team this summer.

I am not a pitcher. I did not try out for the team this summer. I just love to play baseball for fun.

Hall to get Bonds' record-breaker with asterisk
By P.J. Harmer

An asterisk is headed to The National Baseball Hall of Fame.

Barry Bonds' record-breaking 756th home run ball will wind up in Cooperstown. The San Francisco Giants star broke Hank Aaron's record on Aug. 7 with a drive off Washington Nationals pitcher Mike Bacsik.

And thanks to an online vote, the ball will have a slight alteration _ it will be eternally branded with an asterisk.

Fashion designer Mark Ecko, who bought the ball in an online auction for $752,467 on Sept. 15, let the fans determine the ball's fate. The three options for online voters included sending the ball to Cooperstown unharmed, give it to the Hall with an asterisk, or launch it into space forever.

More than 10 million people voted at http://www.vote756.com and 47 percent wanted to have an asterisk branded. Thirty-four percent voted to send it unmarked to Cooperstown and 19 percent went with sending it into space.

"As an American history museum, this is an integral part of baseball history," Hall of Fame Vice President For Communications and Education Jeff Idelson said. "It's equivalent to landing a one-of-a-kind painting. It's unfortunate it's marked, but on the same token, we understand why it is and we'll have to explain the reason to every visitor that comes through. ... We were hopeful the ball would come in unmarked. We don't believe in the decimation of artifacts. In this case we had to look beyond that a little bit because of the historical perspective."

Ecko told The Associated Press the vote to brand the ball showed people thought "this was shrouded in a chapter of baseball history that wasn't necessarily the clearest it could be."

Both the White Sox and Cubs are in the playoffs. Sox just won and it's screwing up my television viewing.
