Just came back from Dodger Stadium. Got my Hershiser bobblehead and the video package they had for him was pretty awesome.

Bills had a bad day. I still don't understand why Guerra is still being called out there.

Not to defend Lawrie, but those were some egregiously bad strike calls.

Although, I can understand the strike 3 call as the ball was tailing back into the plate area.

I thought the strike 3 call was worse than the strike 2 call. And that emphatic last strike call - fuck that shit. hopefully Lawrie will learn to reign it in though. Throwing your equipment at officials simply can't happen.

I'm a Rays fan, but yeah, those were balls. But every player should know that what the Ump says is final, don't start the fights, let your manager do it for you.

Just saw Granderson's "home run" and damn, you Yankee fans sure know how to look like crap even at away games!

Interferes and then his friend does the ghetto head shake and yells and laughs at our left fielder. Oh well, we won. +1 for the good guys, -1 for the Stankees

Hell yeah! Now just imagine if that 12 game skid in April had just been cut in half, 6-6.

New York Mets to host 2013 All-Star Game at Citi Field

The New York Mets have been awarded Major League Baseball's 2013 All-Star Game and will host the 84th Midsummer Classic at Citi Field, Baseball Commissioner Allan H. (Bud) Selig announced today at a press conference at City Hall. Commissioner Selig was joined by the Mayor of New York, the Honorable Michael R. Bloomberg, and New York Mets Chairman & Chief Executive Officer Fred Wilpon.

The 2013 All-Star Game will mark the second time that the Mets, who are commemorating their 50th anniversary in 2012, will host the Midsummer Classic. Shea Stadium hosted the 1964 All-Star Game, a 7-4 National League victory that featured 21 participating Hall of Famers, including Hank Aaron, Roberto Clemente, Sandy Koufax, Mickey Mantle, Willie Mays and Frank Robinson, as well as MLB's Executive Vice President for Baseball Operations, Joe Torre. It will be the ninth All-Star Game in Baseball history to be played in New York City, which is the most of any host city.

Commissioner Selig said: "As we celebrate the franchise's golden anniversary this year, I am pleased to award the 2013 All-Star Game to the New York Mets and their loyal fans. We are delighted to bring the Midsummer Classic to Citi Field, a wonderful ballpark that has carried on the remarkable National League tradition in New York City. The Mets will be superb hosts to next summer's greatest sporting event."

"Thanks to the efforts of Mayor Bloomberg and Commissioner Selig, it's a great honor for everyone at the Mets to host the 2013 All-Star Game at Citi Field," Wilpon said. "Mets fans and all people in the New York tri-state area and beyond will have the opportunity to take part in the events that Major League Baseball will bring to New York."

"Next year's All-Star Game is going to demonstrate once again that there's no place like New York for world-class sporting events," said Mayor Bloomberg. "Major League Baseball clearly recognizes this, since they're bringing the All-Star Game back to New York for the second time in just five years."

The 84th All-Star Game is tentatively scheduled to be played at Citi Field on Tuesday, July 16, 2013.

That entire area is getting redeveloped, throwing up a mall/shops. With the Wilpons troubles, the economy being in the shitter nothings really come of it, but I'm pretty sure that the Wilpons recently inked a deal with the city to get started on a project.
