Well, it looks like rumors are about to become reality as Adrian Beltre is close to becoming a Red Sox. There have been a lot of speculations for quite a while with the third baseman and the Red Sox but it is said that they have come to an one-year agreement with a second year option.

The details are still being looked at but last time I read, the two agreed on a one-year deal worth $9 million and a second year option worth $5 million. The $5 million can possibly increase to $10 million based on incentives and I think the large one was plate appearances of 640 or more need to be reached.

Personally, I would have gone with the other Adrian on the market… Adrian Gonzalez, the free agent first baseman slugger and simply move Youkilis from first to third. But I guess the Red Sox was simply trying to improve the defense drastically as they were one of the worst in 2009.

But we’ll see what happens… nothing is official yet and Beltre has to pass a physical. I’m sure you guys heard about the Mike Lowell trade falling through the cracks!

Well, we will have a Yankees Parade 2009. And no matter how much I hate the fact they won, I have to give them respect. I mean, they did go out and buy an all-star team and spent the most money by any ballclub to do it but the Yankees proved once again that spending money can equal a championship.

Again, I’m not fully happy about the Yankees win of the World Series 2009 but the baseball season is finally over.

Wait, did I just quote Cole Hamels or something?

Anyways, let’s get to the Yankees Parade 2009. The parade will take place Friday morning and will begin on Broadway at Battery Place starting at 11 in the morning and will go through the Canyon of Heroes to Chamber Street where the mayor will present the keys to the city to the Yankees.

I’m sure the parade will be filled with millions of people to support them. I know how it was when the Red Sox won the World Series.

Anyways, enjoy if you go!

Did anyone watch last night’s World Series game? If you did, you might have seen Johnny Damon Double Steal which is pretty rare in baseball. Basically, he stole two bases all in one try. Don’t worry, if you missed it or went to the bathroom at that time, I have the Johnny Damon Double Steal video below.

Basically, in the ninth inning, Johnny Damon was on first base after a single. He then stole second base… then noticed no one was covering third so right after he got up from sliding into second base, he just sprinted towards third base and got in safe because no one was covering at all.

And yes, this sparked the Yankees to win eventually and take a commanding 3-1 lead over the Phillies.

But anyways, it’s pretty rare in baseball to see a double steal like this but if you never seen one, check out the Johnny Damon Double Steal video below.

The World Series are just around the corner so get the World Series Schedule 2009 now so you don’t forget it when it comes at full force at you. I mean, it looks like its going to be the Yankees against the defending champion Phillies. One team is the richest and most known in the world and the other is a young team defending their title.

Anyways, I don’t exactly want to jinx anything (even though I already have) but unless something drastic happens, I think both are going to make it.

But the World Series Schedule 2009 starts next week and it is as follows:

Game 1 – NL @ AL – Wednesday Oct. 28th
Game 2 – NL @ AL – Thursday Oct. 29th
Game 3 – AL @ NL – Saturday Oct. 31st
Game 4 – AL @ NL – Sunday Nov. 1st
Game 5 (if necessary) – AL @ NL – Monday Nov. 2nd
Game 6 (if necessary) – NL @ AL – Wednesday Nov. 4th
Game 7 (if necessary) – NL @ AL – Thursday Nov. 5th

That about wraps on the entire World Series Schedule and Dates 2009.

Enjoy!

If you’re a baseball fan or not, we all know those games usually take a few hours to begin with. But what is the longest baseball game ever played? Well, this all depends on what you’re definition of the longest baseball game ever played… by innings? By hours? Extra innings or just a regular game? And so on and so on.

But the longest baseball game in 9 innings was a New York Yankees versus Boston Red Sox game back in 2006 when the game lasted 4 hours and 45 minutes.

The longest baseball game ever played based on hours and time was Chicago versus Milwaukee back in 1984 when the game lasted 8 hours and 6 minutes. That’s a full time job if you ask me! I’m glad I wasn’t at that game, I would have probably took a nap sometime in between that game.

That game lasted 25 innings by the way.

Anyways, that is based on major league baseball and does not include any minor league or amateur leagues.
