Sports legends of the Ville (landmark edition): Louisville Slugger Field [Sports]

Louisville Slugger Field has stood since 2000 as a proud statement to the baseball world- an extension of the most legendary equipment in modern athletic history.

In 2000 you’d think we were boarding the U.S.S. enterprise when we went to that first game at Louisville Slugger Field.

Bats drop series opener in a close one [Sports]

A player and a coach got thrown out of Friday night's pitching duel. While Edinson Volquez had a strong outing, the Bats lost the home series opener against the Indianapolis Indians 3-2.

 

Well, the post-game show didn’t provide the only fireworks for the evening at Louisville Slugger Field Friday night. Right fielder Jeremy Hermida was tossed from the game in the 8th inning after arguing a called strike. When Hermida was ejected, the 3rd base coach Rick Sweet came to his defense and was also ejected after a long and heated shouting match went on for several minutes.

There will be a weekend of fun at Louisville Slugger Field. Fritos, fireworks, autographs and happy hour. Sounds like a blast to me! Check out the promotions for this homestand.

 

​Needless to say, it's been a difficult second half for the Louisville Bats. With injuries mounting in Cincinnati, that spells a call for help from Louisville. The Bats have lost the likes of Zack Cozart, Todd Frazier, Dontrelle Willis, Dave Sappelt, Yonder Alonso and others off and on to the Reds. While we love to see our Bats move on to the Big Leagues, it's tough watching the struggles that tend to ensue.

The All-Bats team [Sports]

The Bats start their new series tonight, but it got me thinking about what athletes would make it to an "All-Bats" team.

The Bats have been attempting to really get a rally going during the later part of their season.  An attempt that will continue with a new series that begins tonight against the Rochester Red Wings at 7:05, the home stand will continue until Friday night’s game. In between Wednesday and Thursday night’s games will both be held at 7:05.

Return of the Bats [Sports]

It's an 8-game stretch at Louisville Slugger Field! That means lots of Bats baseball and lots of promotions for some family fun at the park! Come support the Bats as they begin their 2nd-half march towards the playoffs.

The Bats look poised for a second half run. [Sports]

After taking two of the first three games from the division-leading Columbus Clippers, the Louisville Bats look serious about making a run for 1st place in the season's second half.

 

After an impressive Independence Day duel with the Clippers that ended in a walk-off 13th inning victory for the Bats and a dominating performance Tuesday night, the Bats will try and sweep the 1st place Clippers tonight at Slugger Field.

A classic July Fourth [Sports]

Just what makes a perfect July 4th in the city of Louisville?

I ask you what can get somebody in the mood for fourth of July in the best possible traditional sense in the state of Kentucky?

Eating twelve consecutive apple pies in one sitting?  After all nothing is more American than Apple Pie! No, and I would wager that that could cause some health issues, in addition aren’t apple pies actually Dutch or something like that in origin?  I suppose I could do some research here but I’ve chosen this question and answer style so I don’t have to. 

The social media monster wants to devour you, stop fighting it [Technology]

There is a lot of social media surrounding us in our everyday lives. Is it too much? Does it really benefit you? What is this stuff?

 

Social Media isn’t just for the casual user anymore. As you walk around the city of Louisville (or any city for that matter) you’ll be hard pressed to find advertisements and billboards that don’t say somewhere on them “Follow us on Facebook and Twitter.”
