Major League Baseball Scores This October with Reviving Baseball in the Inner Cities Program Presented by KPMG Print © 2008 MLB Advanced Media, L.P. All rights reserved. Major League Baseball scores this October with Reviving Baseball in the Inner Cities program presented by KPMG 10/01/2008 2:25 PM ET MLB.com Eight alumni of the Reviving Baseball in the Inner Cities (RBI) presented by KPMG program are expected to play in the Postseason this October. Carl Crawford (Tampa Bay Rays); Coco Crisp and Manny Delcarmen (Boston Red Sox); James Loney and James McDonald (Los Angeles Dodgers); CC Sabathia and Yovani Gallardo (Milwaukee Brewers) and Jimmy Rollins (Philadelphia Phillies), have all participated in RBI programs and could potentially play major roles in their Clubs' quest to advance to and win the World Series. RBI is a program that was started in 1989 to provide underserved youth with an opportunity to play baseball and softball and learn valuable life lessons that will help them score on an off the field. More than one million kids have gone through the program since its inception. The Postseason kicks-off today with a game between the Milwaukee Brewers and the Philadelphia Phillies. RBI alumni will square off in the first game when Yovani Gallardo, the Brewers starting pitcher as the team makes their first postseason appearance in over 25 years, will face 2007 National League MVP Jimmy Rollins. RBI is designed to promote interest in the sport and encourage kids to stay in school and off the streets. RBI programs have been started in more than 200 cities worldwide, and annually have provided as many as 120,000 boys and girls the opportunity to play baseball and softball. "The RBI program is a great example of Major League Baseball's commitment to providing boys and girls the opportunity to play the game and improve their lives," said Baseball Commissioner Allan H. (Bud) Selig. "RBI is helping young players get to the major leagues and this year's post season will showcase RBI alumni competing for a chance to help their teams win a World Series." This year, seven current and former RBI participants were selected in the 2008 First-Year Player Draft, including Atlanta RBI members Xavier Avery (2nd round Pick 50 by the Baltimore Orioles) and Joseph "Jay" Austin (2nd round Pick 56 by the Houston Astros). Earlier this year, Major League Baseball hosted the 16th annual Reviving Baseball in Inner Cities (RBI) World Series presented by KPMG at venues throughout the Los Angeles area, including the MLB Urban Youth Academy in Compton, California. The RBI World Series is the championship round of the RBI program. Typical RBI leagues operate from May to August and are divided into five divisions for local league play: Freshman Boys (13-14 year olds), Junior Boys (15 - 16 year olds), Senior Boys (17 - 18 year olds) and Girls Softball (14 and under and 18 and under). MLB and its Clubs have designated more than $30 million worth of resources to the RBI program and all 30 Major League Baseball Clubs have supported RBI programs. KPMG is the presenting sponsor of the RBI program. The Cal Ripken, Sr. Foundation, Outdoor Cap and Rawlings also support the program. Former scout and Major Leaguer John Young developed the RBI concept in Los Angeles in 1989. MLB assumed administration of RBI in 1991 and manages the program in partnership with Boys & Girls Clubs of America (BGCA), the official charity of MLB. Since it was established in 1989, the RBI program has provided a path for many players to enter the college and professional game. More than 180 RBI participants have been drafted by Major League Clubs in the program's 19-year history. Additional information about RBI presented by KPMG can be found on www.mlb.com/rbi.

He is not a great defender and his offense declined last season as well. With Lou Marson waiting in the wings and the acquisition of Ronny Paulino, Coste’s playing time likely will not meet his projections.

This may come in the form of a quasi-platoon at third base with Pedro Feliz. It is not likely that this righty-masher will become a full-time starter, but if Feliz goes down with an injury, Dobbs is an excellent bet to replace and exceed his production.

  • Tom Marshall's Weekly News, January 21, 2013 Stan the Man: I Was Sorry
    Tom Marshall’s Weekly News, January 21, 2013 Stan the Man: I was sorry to read in Sunday’s paper of the death of Stan Musial (1920–2013). During a lifetime of following major league baseball (off and on), I regarded him as my all-time favorite player. It was not his lifetime batting average of .331, his 475 home runs, his 3,630 hits, or his record 24 all-star game appearances (for a few years, there were two all-star games) that captured my imagination, but rather who he was. Of course there were hometown Phillies stars like Robin Roberts, Mike Schmidt, and Jimmy Rollins who caught my fancy, but I still liked Stan Musial and his Cardinals. Throughout his life, much of it after he was an active player, Musial was in the Cardinals organization; he never worked for anyone else. During most of his playing years, St. Louis was the only major league city west of the Mississippi (until about 1950 there was also the St. Louis Browns in the American League), so baseball fans all over the Midwest liked the Cardinals, especially when they could beat the feared New York Yankees in the World Series. Musial loved the Cardinals, and their many fans loved him. Before he was 20, an accident damaged his pitching arm, so he became an outfielder before he was brought to the major league level late in the 1941 season. He was fast proving himself, as he hit .426 for the rest of that season. Before he retired in 1963, he had led the National League in almost every category, and in 1948, his 39 home runs was one short of providing him with the triple crown.
