It was certainly a bizarre scene on Wednesday afternoon when Max Scherzer was ejected for potentially using a sticky substance at the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Babe Ruth last played for the New York Yankees almost ninety years ago. Yet, when you mention the name Shohei Ohtani to a New York baseball fan, Ruth's name comes up more often than not. There is a pretty good reason.

As reported here on 1045theteam.com, the new pitch clock in Major League Baseball has shaved more than 31 minutes from game times so far in 2023. The faster pace has led to an expedited end to beer sales in the stadium. Several MLB teams made adjustments to their alcohol sales cut-off time, which was generally after the 7th inning.

The new pitch clock in Major League Baseball has shaved more than 31 minutes from game times so far in 2023. The faster pace has led to an expedited end to beer sales in the stadium...the dreaded 7th inning. However, MLB teams are quickly making adjustments.

Mets' ace Max Scherzer spent a lot of money on a house in Jupiter, Florida, but recent reports are claiming that Scherzer has other plans besides living in it.

It is no secret that the New York Mets early season struggles on the mound have fans panicking. Justin Verlander isn't expected to make his Mets debut until late April and Carlos Carasco has been hammered by the Marlins. Add in Max Scherzer's struggles against Milwaukee and, well, all-out mayhem has set-in.

The Mets can only hope Scherzer’s dreadful performance against the Brewers was a one time deal as he’s 38 years old and his career is closer to the finish line.

I didn't know him but I met him several times at Shea Stadium. I had a slight connection to one of the earliest radio voices that I remember mimicking. In those days, I listened to enough Mets games to be pretty good at copying the guy that has voiced more Amazin's games than anyone else.

From the New York Mets and the magic loogie, to George Costanza's stint in the New York Yankees' front office, New York baseball featured heavily in 'Seinfeld'.

Finally! The Major League Baseball owners realized that their product was grinding to a dull-stop. Teams were losing their younger fanbases exponentially, year-by-year. In spring training, this year's rule changes have definitively increased the pace of play. Does everyone like them? No, but I like most of them and you probably will too!

So much has to go right for a major league team to play 162 games, win all of their playoff series and then four games in the World Series, against the other league's best team. Even more would have to go right for the Amazin' Mets. [bran

Owner Steve Cohen will continue to spend the money as well. The Mets are going to be one of the best teams in baseball in 2023.
