Orioles and Adam Jones will no longer celebrate with pies to the face

Orioles and Adam Jones will no longer celebrate with pies to the face
Adam Jones delivered some tough news to Orioles fans over the weekend: He and the team will no longer celebrate wins by giving pies to the face. The reason being to the discontinuation of the recent tradition is safety related, not wanting to risk injuring a teammate with the aggressive nature of the celebration. Understandable, but the news still comes as a bummer for Birdland. Jones still wishes to continue his relationship with Dangerously Delicious Pies, who became the supplier of the pies...

Out of the Park: Adam Jones is the voice of the O's on social media, plus Scott Van Pelt's Bawlmer accent
With spring training workouts in full swing (see what I did there?), the Ed Smith Stadium complex has been buzzing this week. The same cannot be said for the Orioles in the Twittersphere.

But one Oriole we can always count on to be the voice of the team is the face of the franchise, the leader, the...

Out of the Park: A look at what the Nats are doing outside of spring training workouts
It's been a somewhat quiet week on social media for the Nationals, which can be a good thing with the full team reporting and working out in Viera, Fla. They're more concerned with what they're doing on the field than what they're doing off of it. But how are the Nats winning off the field? (Anyone?) I found some nuggets for those of you who are wondering how the team is doing all-around at spring training. Earlier this week, MASNsports.com's Mark Zuckerman wrote about the story behind new...

It was a slow week on social media for the Nationals, which must mean we are getting closer to spring training. The guys are probably busy getting their affairs in order, planning their workouts for the next two weeks and setting their packing checklist before heading out for Viera, Fla. However, it seems that we do have some guys who are too eager and are already down by Space Coast Stadium.
