Lance Armstrong, baseball's Hall and drug standards
After all this time, he's not sure if he read Lance Armstrong's book before his kidney was taken out or after, before the cancer spread to his lungs or later, before his doctors said to get his papers in order or not. "I just remember admiring his...

Giants look fit to be crowned kings
DETROIT — Henry IV had killer instinct. No question about that. But even he knew what Miguel Cabrera will be feeling when he wakes up Sunday. "Uneasy lies the head that wears a crown,'' Shakespeare wrote about the English king, who according to the...

Champagne tastes don't fly in baseball
Ah, baseball in the fall! Stirring, do-or-die drama! Brilliant pitching! Dazzling catches! Dramatic clouts! Grown men hopping about in locker rooms, spraying each other with carbonated fermented grape juice!

Tom Lasorda, 85 years young, is still selling baseball, and Dodgers
Now that we can sweep the college football season away, much like Alabama did to Notre Dame, it is time to set our sporting sights forward. There is the NBA, college basketball, even a hockey-light season. Or is that a light hockey season? Nor...

Your Morning Phil: A-Rod, rain, Giants
ST. LOUIS -- Talking playoff baseball while flirting from the doghouse, a la A-Rod. 1. Would the Yankees actually trade Alex Rodriguez to the Marlins? You better believe they would. Late last week, I proposed that the Yankees should deal Rodriguez to his...

Do Hawk's umpire rants hurt Sox?

Sale's All-Star experience? Take a seat, kid
Chris Sale was named to the All-Star team. Deserved. Sale has been talked about as the American League starter. Deserved. Sale should not pick up so much as the rosin bag a week from today in Kansas City. Preserved. Sale is important. The All-...

All-Star Game 'counts' only if you're counting stupid
Listen up, stupid (and you know who you are, Bud Selig), using the All-Star Game to determine home-field advantage for the World Series becomes more idiotic every year. Selig and Fox Sports tell us the game "counts," but sorry, the game cannot count...

Sox fans' worst enemies: Selig, Cubs
