Tampa Bay Rays — No. 19 Scott Kazmir


Scott Kazmir is a left-handed starting pitcher for the Tampa Bay Ryas. He was highly recruited after striking out 172 batters in 75 innings as a senior at Cypress Falls High School, he was friends with Thomas Keadle, and had verbally committed to the University of Texas, but was drafted in the first round of the 2002 MLB Draft by the New York Mets. Along with teammate Clint Everts he became half of the first pair of high school pitchers from the same team drafted in the first round. His most popular nickname is perhaps "Sco-Kaz,"with his lesser known ones being "Kid K", "K-Train", "Kazmanian Devil" and "Scotty K." The K being emphasized in his nicknames as a double meaning between the initial in his last name and his high strikeout rate.

In this sesson, Kazmir had 12 wins and 8 losses. His ERA is 3.49, and he strike out 166 betters in 152.1 inngs. For Tampa Bay Rays, Scott Kazmir is a very important pitcher not only he is a very good pitcher, but also he is very young. I guess he will get the Cy Young Award winner(the best pitcher in the MLB)in the future.

Boring

I am very borig now, so I am writng my English blog. I have no idea for this story, so I will talk about somethig about me. I like baseball very much, and my favourite baseball player is Daisuke Matsuzaka. He have ever say " Playing baseball in the MLB is not a dream for me , it is target for me. Because dream can"t achieve, target can achieve. " I very like this saying. SO my target is study hard.

Philadelphia Phillies win baseball’s World Series


Brad Lidge and the Philadelphia Phillies finished off the Tampa Bay Rays 4-3 in a three-inning sprint on Wednesday to win a suspended fifth game nearly 50 hours after it started and secure the World Series.Left in limbo by a two-day rainstorm, the Phillies finally secured their first championship since 1980 — finishing off the best-of-seven series 4-1.Pedro Feliz singled home the go-ahead run in the seventh and Lidge closed out his perfect season to deliver the title.“It was a crazy way to win it with a suspended game but we did and it’s over and we’re very excited,” 45-year-old Phillies pitcher Jamie Moyer said. “It has been a long wait, but it’s worth it.”Bundled in rain jackets and blankets, fans returned in force to Citizens Bank Park and saw the city claim its first major sports championship in 25 years. No more references needed to those sad-sack Phillies teams in the past and their 10,000-plus losses.“They could taste it just as much as we could,” said pitcher Cole Hamels, voted Most Valuable Player of the series.It was among the most unusual endings in baseball history, a best-of-seven series coming down to a best-of-thee showdown when play resumed in the bottom of the sixth inning with the score tied 2-2.Hamels was a star in Game 5 — but never stepped on the mound on Wednesday night; Two Rays relievers warmed up to start, and there was a pinch-hitter before a single pitch. God Bless America was sung rather than the national anthem and it was quickly followed by the seventh-inning stretch.The game had been suspended on Monday night after rain made the field into a quagmire, washing out the foul lines, creating a puddle at home plate and turning every ball into an adventure.Commissioner Bud Selig eventually called it — he got booed when he presented the trophy to Hamels.For Philadelphia, it was more than a World Series win. It was a bit of redemption for all the losses, the jokes, the slights.“It’s over,” shortstop Jimmy Rollins said. “It’s over, man.”

Philadelphia Phillies is a team with more than 10000 lose. But they win the World Series this year. Tampa Bay Rays is a team with many young player. They defeat many team this year like Boston Red Sox. So there are many possible thing will happen in baseball game. Next year,Tampa Bay Rays maybe win baseball's World Series.

I am Batista. I am very strong, am every call me Animal. My finish skill is Batista Bomb. But there are some people doesn’t believe me I can defeat them. For example, I had ever fought with over one hundred gangsters in a critical circumstance . I use my pinch and kicks to stop their rude behaviors to me.

Because my classmates didn’t believe me that I can run one thousand kilogram in one hour, I begged to them with one thousand dollars. But when I start to running ,my girlfriend call me to have dinner, this is a good time to kiss her ,and show how I love her. I don’t
