Baseball is my one true love. There’s nothing quite like going to the park on a Sunday afternoon, soaking in some Rays, and watching two teams play the game that I love. But last night, Home Box Office, or HBO, if you will, may have stolen my heart in the form of Game of Thrones. […]

When I saw the news that Blake Snell was going to start against the New York Yankees, my first thought was, “Potentially elite left-handed pitching prospect debuting against a team that just struggled against lefty Rich Hill?!
