The Triple Crown watch is on
>> Saturday
While the Bet Shemesh Blue Sox have been grabbing all the headlines with their dominant play this year, the Modi'in Miracle's Eladio Rodriguez has quietly put together a remarkable season and could be the first Triple Crown winner in league history.
With nine games remaining, Rodriguez is just .011 off the pace for the batting title at .478 and 6 off the pace for the RBI lead. His league-leading 16 HRs put him on pace to shatter the previous league record of zero.
Tomorrow night, his Miracle will take on the Tel Aviv Lightning at Gezer Field, where the ball is known to carry in the evening. Tel Aviv ace Adam Crabb has had a fine season, but if he's not careful, Rodriguez might send a few into the ruins of King Solomon's summer palace.

Apropos of this post: Ryan Braun's game winning homer against the Astros off of Lidge tonight was fucking awesome.

Hey jonnyspace, I like sports too!
Anyways, how the hell did you find this, Vin?
Also, I think it's pretty cool that a catcher is pursuing the Triple Crown. That's never happened in American baseball. That guy has to be pretty tough.
Johnny Space loves the IBL!
I actually caught part of a game on PBS a few weeks back, so I thought I'd go check out their website. I figured this post could serve as an audition to become one of their beat writers. You guys may not know this about me, it's long been a dream of mine to live on a kibbutz and cover low-grade professional baseball.
