AL Wild Card: Astros (Dallas Keuchel) at Yankees (Masahiro Tanaka) At first thought I had the Astros winning but after thinking about it I’m going with the Yankees. Keuchel is a Cy Young contender but he’s pitching on 3 days rest and I’m not sure how often he has done that if ever. Yankees get…
We made it. The biggest Milestone in the history of the 9 Inning Know It All Empire. 1,000,000 views and counting. I can’t believe that it has only been just over 4 years since I started this site just so I could rant about baseball. Since 9 Inning Know It All began so much has…

Alex Rodriguez had another big month in reaching a few new milestones. He got his 3,000 career hit which happened to be a home run. He also become only the 3rd player in MLB history to record 2,000 RBI’s joining Hank Aaron and Babe Ruth. Albert Pujols also reached a big milestone, passing a HR…
A few big time numbers were reached in May and none bigger than Alex Rodriguez passing Willie Mays in HR’s and Lou Gehrig in RBI’s. As controversial as A-Rod has been over the years, what he is doing is pretty amazing considering he didn’t play any ball last year and I am not a Yankees…
Guest Post written by Dennis Gronau The first month of Baseball means it’s April and spring time, which is a win-win situation. Crack of the bat, the snap of the ball hitting the catcher’s glove in the bullpen during warm-ups and most importantly the shouting words of the umpire to yell “Play Ball”. The 2015…
