I was introduced to Long Beach State baseball in 2002 when my nephew, Neil Jamison, joined the team (and university) as a freshman. I started the blog in March of 2004, and generally discuss the team, current players and those that have moved on to professional baseball - as Neil has done in the San Diego Padres organization. Living in San Diego County, and with Neil moving to the next level, I won't be attending as many Dirtbags games. But, mostly from a distance, I'll remain a Dirtbags fan. I welcome tips on stories and information concerning the Dirtbags (current, past and future). I can be contacted at dirtbagsfan@yahoo.com.

Former Dirtbag Bobby Crosby Anchoring A's Defense  Thanks to Niall for passing along this story from mlb.com (read the entire story here): MINNEAPOLIS --- Through Saturday, the A's had made the fewest errors in the American league, so there's been quite a bit of Gold Glove talk in the clubhouse as of late. In addition to its three-time winner at third base, Eric Chavez, Oakland has a couple of legitimate candidates in center fielder Mark Kotsay and right fielder Jermaine Dye. But left fielder Eric Byrnes, who has turned in quite a few fielding gems himself, said Sunday that rookie shortstop Bobby Crosby has been the true anchor of the defense. "He's made a few errors, but I think the key to the whole thing has been Bobby," Byrnes said. "I mean, we knew he'd be a good defensive player, but I don't think anyone expected him to reach the level he's at right now so quickly." Infield coach Ron Washington said much the same thing last week in New York, where Crosby put on a show during a three-game series, and first base coach Brad Fischer reiterated the feeling among A's coaches on Sunday. "The most impressive thing about Bobby is that he's getting better as the season progresses," Fischer said. "We knew he was good, but he's improving pretty dramatically both at the plate and in the field every day, it seems."
