...Angels’ fans have every right to be excited about this year’s season. With Mike Trout in the spotlight and moving into his prime the Angels organization, led by Billy Eppler, has done their best to build a good team around him. They have recruited new players, changed their pitching rotation, revamped their lineup, and they are looking really good. Overall, they are looking like the best team in baseball this season. This is because of how much the organization’s pitching, fielding, and batting has been improved. Coming off last year’s disappointing finish the Angels have had a productive off-season which includes many new additions. These additions include veteran players and a sensational rookie. Justin Upton, who was signed...

...despite the higher average temperature. The stadium was the first MLB ballpark to be awarded a LEED Silver Certification for Existing Buildings, Operations and Maintenance in 2010. The park has sixty eight luxury suites, 5,200 club seats on the club level and 1,500 club seats that are at the field level behind home plate. It has the numbers of retired Willie McCovey, Bill Terry, Willie Mays, Carl Hubbell, Jackie Robinson, Mel Ott, Monte Irvin, Juan Marichal, Orlando Cepeda, and Gaylord Perry. There are also retired uniforms, denoted "NY”, which belonged to Christy Mathewson and John McGraw who managed during the pre-number era. The park is known for being the most pitcher-friendly ballpark in the National League because of the depth of the outfield limiting home runs. It is also the most Vegetarian Friendly Park according to PETA as of 2014. Its most noticeable feature, is the right field wall that is 7.3 m high in honor of former Giant Willie Mays, who wore number 24. The wall of the stadium is made of bricks with fenced off porticos that open to the Cove beyond and above which there are some rows of arcade seating. The fence angles extends out to 128 m from home plate. Above the fence, there are 4 pillars with fountains on top of them. These 4 pillars spurts jets of water when the San Francisco Giants hit a home run, win a game, and at the end of the National Anthem. Field there is a pier where ferries can tie up and let off fans behind the scoreboard. Fans take to the water of...

...The Natural Sports Management 11/2/11 Movie Analysis “The Natural” is one of the most inspiring sports movies that I have ever seen. Matter of a fact it is one of the most inspiring movies that I have ever seen altogether. It is about a baseball player named Roy Hobbs, whose main goal in the movie is to become the best baseball player to ever play the game. It starts out with Roy throwing with his dad at their farm when Roy was a young kid. Then it jumps to a scene where it shows Roy’s dad dying of a heart attack under the tree that is in their front yard. Then it has Roy standing in front of his window one night just looking at the tree when a streak of lightening came down and struck the tree splitting it into two pieces. Now Roy took part of the tree and made a bat out of it and called it Wonderboy. Then it jumps to where Roy is at the age of just getting out of high school and it shows him talking to his girlfriend at the time, whose name was Iris. He was telling her that he had talked to a team out of Chicago and that he had a tryout with the team. As the movie goes a long, it shows him getting on a train with his agent, or the guy that found him and got his tryout, but also on the train it has a guy named Whammer on the train that is supposed to be the best baseball player that was ever going to play the game of baseball. So they stop at a carnival to enjoy their time and during this time Roy’s man that found him and another guy that was with the Whammer on the train...

...I won 15 games as a starting pitcher and only lost 10. Every time I stepped foot on the pitchers’ mound at Buffalo Stadium, every seat of the 11,556 were taken and the fans were roaring. I have never felt so proud to be playing baseball. I felt like Babe Ruth! With all of the success I experienced, I received a letter from a scout for the Chicago Cubs organization. They were really enjoying seeing what I was able to do in the Double-A Minor Leagues as a left-handed pitcher, and they offered me a promotion to Triple-A. Sure enough, I signed that contract and set off to Los Angeles to play for the Cubs’ Triple-A affiliate, The Angels. Unfortunately, I did not experience the same success in 1949 that I did in Houston the year before. The guys I was playing with in Triple-A were just bigger and more talented than I was. I fought and never gave up, just like Mom and Dad taught me. It just was not enough to get the job done. I decided it would be better to go back to Houston the following year if I wanted to ultimately reach my goal of being in the Major Leagues. After the 1949 season concluded, I signed back with...

...Chapter 1: The End and Beginning Prologue Facing the young girl and her little sister, the armored knight raised his sword. To have mercy was to take away a life in a single strike. Struck by the sunlight, the sword glistened high up in the air. The girl shut her eyes and bit down on her lower lip. Her expression showed that she never wished for this situation. She was simply accepting it since there was nothing she could do. If the girl had power of some sort, she would have used it on the man before her eyes and ran away. But— the girl had no such power. Thus there existed only one conclusion. The girl would surely perish here. The sword struck down — —Yet she did not feel any pain. The girl opened her tightly shut eyes. The first thing that the girl saw in her world was the sword that had stopped in its path downward. The next thing that entered her sight was its wielder. He had stopped in motion as though he were encased in ice. The knight’s attention was no longer on the girl. The completely defenseless state of the knight clearly revealed the shock that surged inside him. As though led by the knight’s gaze, the girl also turned her face toward the same direction. Then— she saw despair. There was darkness. Pure darkness as thin as paper, yet of an unfathomable depth. It had emerged from the ground in an ovoid shape with its lower section cut. A scene that evoked mystique with indescribable apprehension. A...

...Moneyball: The Art of Winning an Unfair Game Michael Lewis For Billy Fitzgerald I can still hear him shouting at me Lately in a wreck of a Californian ship, one of the passengers fastened a belt about him with two hundred pounds of gold in it, with which he was found afterwards at the bottom. Now, as he was sinking-had he the gold? or the gold him? —John Ruskin, Unto This Last Preface I wrote this book because I fell in love with a story. The story concerned a small group of undervalued professional baseball players and executives, many of whom had been rejected as unfit for the big leagues, who had turned themselves into one of the most successful franchises in Major League Baseball. But the idea for the book came well before I had good reason to write it—before I had a story to fall in love with. It began, really, with an innocent question: how did one of the poorest teams in baseball, the Oakland Athletics, win so many games? For more than a decade the people who run professional baseball have argued that the game was ceasing to be an athletic competition and becoming a financial one. The gap between rich and poor in baseball was far greater than in any other professional sport, and widening rapidly. At the opening of the 2002 season, the richest team, the New York Yankees, had a payroll of $126 million while the two poorest teams, the Oakland A's and the Tampa Bay Devil Rays, had payrolls of less than a third of that, about $40 million. A decade before, the highest payroll...

Summary: Grade 9 Up–Headstrong, sun-loving, 17-year-old Bella declines her mom's invitation to move to Florida, and instead reluctantly opts to move to her dad's cabin in the dreary, rainy town of Forks, WA. She becomes intrigued with Edward Cullen, a distant, stylish, and disarmingly handsome senior, who is also a vampire. When he reveals that his specific clan hunts wildlife instead of humans, Bella deduces that she is safe from his blood-sucking instincts and therefore free to fall hopelessly in love with him. The feeling is mutual, and the resulting volatile romance smolders as they attempt to hide Edward's identity from her family and the rest of the school.
