Hunter Pence wants to teach your kids how to play baseball. Just not the way you'd want them to learn the game.

Major League Baseball will feature four interesting matchups in its next round of postseason play. Here's what to watch this weekend:

It turns out the Houston Astros’ fans stink almost as much as the team does.

Who says there's no crying in baseball?

According to the latest Nielsen ratings from the Houston area, no one - and we mean no one - was watching the struggling Houston Astros on Sunday.

Cincinnati Reds second baseman Brandon Phillips' butt has a lesson for all of you ball players out there -- don't slide head first.

Chris Lane, an Australian man who had recently accepted a scholarship to play baseball for East Central University in Oklahoma, was shot and killed by three Oklahoma teens Friday afternoon. According to the police, the teens did it simply because they were bored.

In baseball there are a few ways to get a point across. Having your pitcher throw one near, or at, a batter is one of those ways, but if it's deliberate, should there be punishment?

What says "summer is finally here" better than being smacked repeatedly in the chest by a small child? Lemonade? Sure. The distant jangle of ice cream trucks? Absolutely. Fireworks and BBQ? Okay, fine, we get it. Lots of stuff is more summery than this, but none of those are nearly as funny as the indignation of a child whose father had the audacity to not catch a foul ball that was whiz

Having your picture taken and taking a picture both require a certain degree of concentration. So when you're taking a "selfie" (and performing both of these tasks at once) you tend to be pretty oblivious to anything else going on around you.

In the '90s baseball classic 'Rookie of the Year,' 12-year old Henry Rowengartner (Thomas Ian Nicholas) really wants to be a major leaguer. The only problem is he's more of klutz than a diamond king.

The bench-clearing brawl this week between the Los Angeles Dodgers and the San Diego Padres was one of the biggest and most costly in years. Dodger's pitcher Zack Greinke has a broken collarbone and Padre's hitter Carlos Quinten has been suspended for 8 days. The scrum got us thinking about some of the battles the Red Sox have been involved in. The most notable, Jason Varitek taking down Alex Rodr

We really weren't that excited about baseball season starting until we saw this video. Now we are filled with a burning desire to go to a game, catch a ball in a cup of beer, chug the beer and hold the ball in our mouth.

Baseball season opens today, and one of the things brought to mind by baseball is the classic "Who's on First?" routine made legendary by Abbott and Costello. That timeless routine is celebrating its 75th anniversary this year, and is still as funny as when it was first performed...

Things are interesting at the shortstop position this season. While many experts view it as shallow because of how the position performed as a whole last year, using hindsight isn’t always helpful. When I look at this list, I see a group of guys that are capable of matching or exceeding their 2012 numbers...

It’s hard not to wonder if there aren’t at least a few MLB Players out there that peek around the internet to see if their names show up on these lists. So if any of you are reading, I apologize in advance. In my opinion, having a bust of a season doesn’t necessarily mean a player craps the bed...
