Dirk Nowitzki wins with injured finger on left hand for the Dallas Mavericks

Congrats to Dirk Nowitzki the German's assault on the Miami Heat was legendary in the final minutes of Game two of the 2011 NBA finals! The middle finger was not a factor with this lay-up in the the last 3.6 seconds to win for the Dallas Mavericks to tie the series 1-1!

Baseball Babe #61 Honors Jo-Jo Reyes Toronto Blue Jays 1st Win

It's snapped ... the 28 game winless streak came to a close for Jo-Jo Reyes against the Cleveland Indians. He pitched marvelously in a complete game eight hit one run ball game. His last victory came way back on June 13th 2008 against the Atlants Braves. Victory was well appreciated by the fans of the Toronto Blue Jays cheering "Jo-Jo-Jo-Jo" from the rafters and the on mound celebration!

Congrats to you Jo-Jo Reyes.

Baseball Babe #60 Honors Jose Reyes New York Mets 2 Triples

The New York Mets brought out the lumber when they faced the Philadelphia Philles. The wood was flying and so was Jose Reyes as he hit two triples out of his 4-5 day at the plate. The Mets had a total of 17 hits against the Phillies to win 9-5!

Baseball Babe #59 Honors Adam Kennedy Seattle Mariners GW Single

The night of late inning heroics! The surging Seattle Mariners and the New York Yankees went into extra innings and Adam Kennedy came through in the bottom of the 12 inning off a nasty slider from the master Mariano Rivera with a bloop single to win the game 5-4.

We do have runner-ups today!

The night also produced a Milwaukee Brewers win over the defending World Series champions San Francisco Giants with a 9th inning bunt sacrifice by Jonathan Lucroy.

Chipper Jones wanted to show he was not getting showed up so in the 12th inning he singles in the go ahead run to help the Atlanta Braves take down the Cincinnati Reds.

All three players deserve the "Baseball Babe Award", but I am going with utility journeyman Adam Kennedy for him slapping the slider of the great one Mariano Rivera.

Runner-ups: Chipper Jones and Jonathan Lucroy!

Baseball Babe #58 Honors David Price Tampa Bay Rays 12 K's

The overpowering David Price took the mound Friday night with a mission to tke down my lifelong favorite team the Cleveland Indians. I wish he would have stayed home because he was dominate. His stuff was nasty and made the first place Indians hitters look at the catchers mitt too many times instead of over the wall. The Tampa Bay Rays pitcher only allowed 4 hits and walked two to get his 6th win of the year! As an Indian fan, I tip my hat back at you!

Baseball Babe #57 Honors Carl Crawford Boston Red Sox 2 Triples

The Boston Red Sox tore into the Detroit Tigers Thursday beating them 14-1 or two touchdowns - an extra point for the football diehards. Todays winner of the "Sportschatter Baseball Babe" goes to Carl Crawford for his two triples. The bat is coming around along with the speed that Boston Traded for the winter! For the triples we give the 3 babes for the 3 baggers!

Baseball Babe #56 Honors Zack Greinke Milwaukee Brewers 1 HR 10 K's

It's rare when a pitcher loves to hit, but Zack Greinke loves to hit! As a Kansas City Royals pitcher he never got the chance to show his skills being in the American League, but now being with the Milwaukee Brewers and the National League he gets his chance to hack. On Wednesday night he showed why he loves to hit ...hw wanted to the the chicks the long ball! He hit his first home run of the season! The bat was not all that was working Wednesday the ball whiffed 10 batters and had a strike out in every inning he pitched to win over the Washington Nationals!
