The juiced ball era

By Chris Haffenreffer | May 16, 2000

I have a problem with the direction of the game of baseball. Although there are a variety of different things I feel the need to gripe about, there is one that I find truly irritating -- the home runs. As a young kid, I remember being constantly told by all of my coaches not to swing for the fences.

The major league shuffle

By Chris Haffenreffer | May 9, 2000

Although the home run frenzy of Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa has helped the game of baseball in terms of attendance and marketing, the MLB still does not attract the eyes of the American public like it once did.

Nickerson has 'team first' attitude

By Abraham Mahshie | May 5, 2000

It's not about numbers for Dartmouth baseball's team captain Brian "B-Nick" Nickerson '00. He doesn't even know his batting average or the fact that he is second in the league at .387 (only .002 from first), or that he's tied for first in homeruns with a career-high of 10.
