A-HOLE FAN DIGEST: The Muhammad Ali Autographing Incident

Tue, 10 Nov 2009 20:59:56 -0500

Earlier today, we published a story from an anonymous reader claiming that ASU baseball coach Pat Murphy accosted him at a charity event. Here's how the story ended up being complete ********. I've removed the story in question, because the guy who sent it in emailed me later on to tell me that, in fact, Murphy never threatened to kick his ass. Instead, I'm going to run this version of the story from ASU assistant SID Randy Policar. What we're left with is the rather sad story...

Red Sox Lost Because ~ Papelbon? Wagner? Pedroia? Nope...

Tue, 13 Oct 2009 09:43:00 -0500

It was Fenway's grounds crew. "It [Kendry Morales' grounder] took a bad hop," Dustin Pedroia said. "Our infield (stinks). It's the worst in the game." "I'm not lying about that. That is true. I...

Pedroia: It's the field's fault

Mon, 12 Oct 2009 11:00:00 -0500

In yesterday's Sox-Angels game there was a play in the eighth that bothered some of the Red Sox, specifically Dustin Pedroia. Boston was leading 5-2 and the Angels had runners on 1st and 2nd with one out and Kendry Morales was at the dish. Morales hit what looked like an easy double play ball, but it took a bad hop, and Pedroia had to dive for the ball. Instead of an inning-ending DP it ended up just being a force at first. The Angels would score two in the inning, and then three more in ...

Geist: "I'd have no problem putting an offspeed pitch in Pedroia's back"

Wed, 05 Aug 2009 12:17:00 -0500

I got this in my inbox yesterday from the folks over at The Villiage Voice. It's an interview with MSNBC's Williams Geist. Why is this relevant? Because he's a big time Yankees fan.You're a Yankees fan. If you ever got a pitching start for the Yanks and could bean one opposing player, who would it be? Does throwing at A-Rod during batting practice count? If not, I'd go with Dustin Pedroia of the Red Sox. I've never been big on the baseball tradition of throwing a hard ...

Pedroia to miss ‘09 ASG

Sun, 12 Jul 2009 13:27:19 -0500

Dustin Pedroia is going to skip out on the All-Star Game this year but before you start fuming, it’s not for Manny Ramirez-esque reasons. Pedroia’s pregnant wife is currently hospitalized with “early labor complications” so he’s going to go spend some time with her. He’ll be replaced on the roster by TB first baseman Carlos [...]

Dustin Pedroia: MVP, Champion, Financial Advisor

Fri, 10 Jul 2009 12:00:43 -0500

Give Dustin Pedroia credit: he likes to have some fun with a camera on him. He’s not much of an actor (and was quite noticeably outclassed in that awesome MLB ‘09 commercial), but he’s, y’know, out there. (Alcohol, for one, is not a solid investment. Buy some anyway.) It naturally follows, then (no it doesn’t), that Pedroia [...]
