that red sox win tonight got me a lot more excited about going to tomorrow night's game.

Pretty awesome Sox win...this guy McDonald gets called up an hour before the game starts, ties it with a 2 run shot and hits a walkoff double off the wall to seal the game. Unreal

Zambrano to the bullpen = what.the.fuck?

This is seriously the worst move I could possibly think of and reeks of desperation.

it's pretty amazing how seriously the brewers own the pirates. they're 26-6 vs pittsburgh since 2008. today they won 20-0, giving the pirates their worst loss in franchise history. that's 124 years!

timmyjoe42 · **Posted:** Thu Apr 22, 2010 6:04 pm

and the pirates swept the reds...

The series score this time around was 36-1. And going back to the game before they've scored 47 runs in 4 games. I'd say the offense is clicking pretty well right now.

With 27 World Series championships, baseball's highest payroll and some of the most boastful fans in sports, the New York Yankees have to be the team other baseball fans love to hate, right? Wrong.

According to a formula created by The Neilsen Company, there are four teams more detested than the Bronx Bombers, The Wall Street Journal reported.

According to a report, Slider and his Cleveland Indians are baseball's Public Enemy No. 1 among fans.
The No. 1 most-disliked team in baseball, according to the formula, is the Cleveland Indians.

The Boston Red Sox, the Yankees' archrival, rank No. 2 on the list.

The formula helps determine whether consumers have positive, negative or neutral reactions to brands in their online messages. Neilsen's "Sentiment Rankings" range from 5 to minus-5. No team finished with a negative number. But six teams finished with a number lower than 2.

Some of the others making the not-so top 10: Chicago White Sox (No. 7), Baltimore Orioles (No. 8), New York Mets (No. 9) and Los Angeles Dodgers (No. 10).

At least one Indians blogger wasn't surprised by the findings.

"I can believe that though," Deep Left Field Indians blogger Ed Carroll told the newspaper. "The team does a lot to alienate its fans."

The Cincinnati Reds (No. 3) and Houston Astros (No. 4) also ranked higher than the Yankees on the hatred scale. The Washington Nationals (No. 6) were the only other team to have a number lower than 2.

The San Francisco Giants and Oakland Athletics were the most popular teams among fans, according to Neilsen's study.

i don't believe that two teams with a geographic rivalry (even if they only play in non-traditional interleague) are the most popular. and then when you factor in that fans despised bonds for so long, it's unfathomable that the giants would be one of those.

You're not taking into account their appeal to senior citizens.

If the Reds would win we might be more positive about the team. It's been 20 years...
