Reggie Jackson in an interview photo from Reggie’s facebook page
Reginaldo Martínez Jackson speaks on anti-Semitism
‘That’s Amaury News and Commentary
Amaury Pi-González
The Hall of Famer who began his 21-year Hall of Fame career with the KC A’s and later with the Oakland A’s recently spoke from his home in Pennsylvania to “Outkick,” a social media site where Sports and Culture Collide. Reggie urged public officials to condemn anti-Semitism and likened it to “Racism I experienced in the 1960s”
I was surprised to hear Reggie speaking about this. When he played with the Oakland A’s in the mid and late 70s, I would wait around the batting cage and ask him if I could have a few minutes with him. He would tell me, ” Sure, wait, and I’ll let you know. So I would wait until he was finished with batting practice, and then he would signal for me to come over. Reggie could be a tough interview (he stiffed me a few times), but with me he was all good, maybe because in the 70s there were no Baseball Spanish broadcasters/reporters like today. After I told him the interview was in Spanish, he would say, “Ok but please speak slowly”. Reggie’s father was African-American; his name was Martinez Clarence-Jackson. He played in the Negro Leagues, and he did not speak Spanish. Reggie learned Spanish from his maternal grandmother, who was born in Bayamón, Puerto Rico
Every time I spoke with Reggie and put a microphone in front of him, he answered in Spanish, but very, very slowly, pausing between words, understandably. I know reporters who said he never gave them an interview; he was shy at times, but when I got him speaking in Spanish, he spoke with more confidence every time, almost like the Spanish of Dodgers manager Tommy LaSorda, and Tommy was fun; I could not get him to stop. Going back to Reggie, I understood why he didn’t want to give interviews; he was one of the greatest players of his generation and, yes, controversial, and the media demand for him was huge, especially when he became a Yankee and played in New York; what else is new?
I would say this about Reginaldo. I commend him for speaking about Anti-Semitism. Muy bueno, Reggie!
Note: Although he spent a significant portion of his career with the Kansas City/Oakland Athletics and won multiple World Series titles, Jackson specifically requested and chose to enter the Hall of Fame as a Yankee.

#1 The political conflict between City of Santa Clara Vice Mayor Kathy Watanabe and the City of Santa Clara and the San Francisco 49ers has the 49ers spending and hoping to get Wantanbe opponent Gary Ferraris,elected as mayor.
#2 Amongst the conflict between the 49ers and Santa Clara, A. Stadium revenue: How much money the 49ers should return to Santa Clara taxpayers. B. Financial transparency: Whether the city should have stronger independent auditing and oversight of stadium finances. C. Stadium expenses: Who should pay for improvements, maintenance and other costs. D.Event restrictions: Rules governing stadium events, including curfews.

#3 On Monday the Sacramento A’s announced they released infielder Jeff McNiel and pitcher Jeffery Springs. McNiel. McNiel hit .264, nine home runs, with 59 RBIs. McNiel had some games where he helped the A’s with some clutch hits and contributed to the club winning some games. McNiel helped the A’s more than he hurt them.
#4 Springs who was released on Sunday as well strugged all year going 4-14 with a 6.18 ERA had numerous games where he went out and got lit up. A’s manager Mark Kotsay stayed with him all 2026 but in the end Springs just didn’t pay off for the club.
#5 The A’s did retain the services of pitcher Luis Severino. Severino was out for most of the season was 2-6 with a 4.17 ERA. Severino left early in the season due to a shoulder capsule and suffered shoulder strains. He’ll receive $22 million from the A’s for the 2027 season.

Major League Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred says MLB will delay the salary cap proposal until 2028 and no salary cap for 2027 season. Will the MLBPA agree or not? (photo from Stadium Chaser)

MLB Proposes delaying the salary cap until 2029
That’s Amaury News and Commentary
Amaury Pi-Gonzalez
Commissioner Rob Manfred may be “buying time’ for his owners. No word on this so far from the players’ union, the MLPA, which has said the salary cap is a ‘red line ‘, a message that they are not looking forward to a cap for their players. Basically, this is an effort by the owners to win over the players, sweetening the deal. Give the MLPA a year (2027) to think about it. But I do not think the players will bite.
This announcement changes from MLB first proposal. The owners project that the top limit on team spending in 2028 would be $258.2 million, up from $245.3 million proposed for 2027, and the floor the league proposes for 2028 is now $1809.2 million, up from $171.2 million initially.
So sit down and get the Pop Corn because this could be ,long, definitely longer than the very expensive 1963 Hollywood film Cleopatra. It is widely referred to as a financial disaster and a near-bankrupting “bomb”; hopefully, Major League Baseball owners and players will come to an agreement satisfactory to both sides, and most importantly, keep the baseball fans iin a better mood.

In the Homerun Era Milwaukee Won Playing Baseball
By Amaury Pi Gonzalez
The Milwaukee Brewers hit three home runs in five games against the Tampa Bay Rays and won he 2026 World Series.. The Brew Crew under old-school manager Pat Murphy dominated, playing baseball with execution, hitting, emphasizing contact, speed on the bases, great pitching, and the best bullpen in baseball, not to mention the #1 pitcher and best starter in the game, Cy Young Award Winner this season, 24-year-old Jacob Misiorowski, who this regular season broke the record, throwing a 105 mph fastball with a gold arm; he regularly hit 100 mph more than any other pitcher in the game. Misionowski completed 5 2/3 innings, won game five, and the party started in Milwaukee
The Milwaukee Brewers led the league in team batting average during the 2026 MLB regular season. 258 (tied with the Tampa Bay Rays). Milwaukee was last in Homeruns in baseball with 130. Milwaukee’s pitching was #2 in earned run average at 3.52, and its bullpen was the best, with 55 saves.
‘Parade: This Friday at 10AM (Central Time), Milwaukee city officials expect up to 500,000; Milwaukee’s total population is 570,000, so everybody will be there.
Congratulations to the Milwaukee Brewers, MLB’s smallest media market (#30). They are the best example that you can win with limited resources, showing that analytics is overrated.
Adiós, until next season, whenever that starts.

MLB State of the Game
That’s Amaury News and Commentary
By Amaury Pi-González
Commissioner Rob Manfred told the MLB Network show today from Tropicana Field in Tampa, prior to Game 4 of the 2026 World Series, that MLB fell slightly short of its overall attendance projection for the 2026 season. The projection was 74 million, and the actual total of 71 to 75 million represents growth rather than decline.
13 teams saw attendance increases, while 17 experienced declines. The Los Angeles Dodgers led the majors in attendance for the 14th straight year with 4,034,219 total, while the Athletics were last with 799,240 while playing in Sacramento.
The bigger Gains and Drops: The Tampa Bay Rays had the largest-year-over year surge adding over 628,000 fans following theior return to Tropicana Field. The New York Mets suffered the largest drop, down 472,450 fans.
MLPA and Owners’ negotiations are totally stalled, and most in the sport now believe a prolonged lockout is inevitable. The issue is the owners’ proposed salary cap: a $245.3 million spending ceiling, a $171.2 million floor, and a 50-50 revenue split. The MLPA said THE SALARY CAP IS A RED LINE. In other words, they will not negotiate that.
My take: There is a lot of money to be made here, and I hope cooler heads prevail on both sides; however, I tend to favor the players’ side on this issue, and I believe players should not “surrender” to the owners. I remember the 1981 season player strike well as a broadcaster for the Oakland A’s; it lasted over 700 total games, more than one-third of the season.
Divided into two parts, the postseason took us to Kansas City, where we eliminated the Royals; then we lost to the New York Yankees, and our season ended. Strikes, Lockouts- whatever stops the game for a prolonged period of time is not good for the game.
Let’s hope for the best; that is all we can do, and that baseball returns in 2027, starting with Spring Training.

Can Milwaukee deliver the decisive blow on the road? How will the Brewers handle the pressure of a potential championship-clinching game in Tampa Bay, especially if the crowd gets behind the Rays early?
2. Which starting pitcher will seize control? Will Milwaukee’s starter set the tone with early strikeouts, or can Tampa Bay’s starter keep the Brewers’ offense off balance and force a low-scoring contest?
3. Can the Rays’ offense rise to the occasion? Which Tampa Bay hitters will step up in the biggest game of the season, and can they capitalize on scoring opportunities with runners in scoring position?
4. Will Milwaukee’s pitching and bullpen continue to dominate? After a 10–1 victory in Game 3, the Brewers have taken a 3–0 series lead. Can their pitching staff finish the job, or will Tampa Bay finally find a way to break through?
5. Can Tampa Bay make history with a comeback? Facing elimination, can the Rays rally behind stars such as Junior Caminero and Yandy Díaz, or will Milwaukee secure its first World Series championship in franchise history?

Baseball and the Irony of the Betting Sites
That’s Amaury News and Commentary

For over 100 years, baseball’s ultimate sin has been gambling: players betting on games. Rule 21 is strictly enforced to maintain public trust and the game’s integrity. The 1919 Black Sox scandal is baseball’s most famous scandal, and it centered on gambling.
Eight Chicago White Sox players were banned for life from professional baseball for their involvement. Today, government statistics list 0.03% of the total US population as over 100 years old. So most of us were not alive in 1919. But many of us remember the Pete Rose gambling scandal.
An investigation revealed that Pete Rose bet on baseball games, including games involving the Cincinnati Reds while serving as the team’s player-manager. Mr. Hustle played in 3,562 games, hit 4,256, with 3,215 singles, and made 10,328 outs; all are MLB records in his 24 seasons in Major League Baseball. Pete Rose died on September 30, 2024, at 83 at his home in Las Vegas. At the end, Rose did admit he bet on games.
You’ve likely seen some of this betting site advertising during the current World Series between Milwaukee and Tampa Bay. Major betting sites include FanDuel, DraftKings, and BetMGM. Bet365, Caesars Sportsbook, Fanatics Sportsbook, Hard Rock Bet, theScore Bet, betPARX, Betr, ESPN Bet, Kalshi, Polymarket, and others. Sports betting is legal and active in 39 states plus Washington, D.C., and Puerto Rico, allowing state-regulated commercial and tribal platforms such as DraftKings and FanDuel to operate.
In May 2025, MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred lifted Rose’s permanent ban by changing league policy so that lifetime ineligibility ends upon a person’s death. With his ban lifted, Rose is eligible for consideration by the Classic Baseball Era Committee. The committee next votes on a pre-1980 candidate in 2027. Mr. Hustle will likely be elected to the Hall of Fame posthumously. According to today’s betting markets, Pete Rose has an 83.3% chance of being inducted into Cooperstown.
Actor and Producer Mark Wahlberg is working on a film about Pete Rose and it is targeted for production in early 2027..

Todd Benzinger a former San Francisco Giants and outfielder for the Cincinnati Reds who passed away on Wed Oct 21, 2026 (Todd Benzinger facebook)
From My Notebook: World Series Memories. 1990
By Amaury Pi-González
The 1990 World Series was a sweep by an inferior Cincinnati Reds team over the Oakland A’s; In game four, Reds outfielder Todd Benzinger, who had just passed away at 63, made the final out. This four-game series stunned the Oakland A’s and their fans, many of whom traveled to Cincinnati.
The A’s had a chance to win three consecutive World Series in 88, 89, and 90. In the end, they won the Earthquake Series against the Giants in San Francisco in 1989. The A’s were also a much better team than the LA Dodgers in 1988, but Dodgers’ pitcher Orel Hershiser dominated in that series, giving the Dodgers the crown, and he was the MVP.
The 1990 World Series particularly brings back memories, as the A’s team hotel in Cincinnati was sold out; the team secured a Holiday Inn about 25 minutes away across the Ohio River in Kentucky, as yours truly and my wife Gail, and other A’s personnel stayed there.
This 1990 World Series was the typical upset. The Oakland A’s were a much better team than the Reds, but everything went right for Cincinnati and the other way for the A’s. That’s baseball.
In conclusion: The A’s were a dominant team back then and missed the chance to win three World Series in a row, 88, 89, 90. That would have been the second time in A’s history to accomplish such a feat, as they also won in 72,73,74. Only the New York Yankees can claim so much success in World Series history.

2026 World Series: Brewers vs. Rays Battle of the Small Markets
That’s Amaury News and Commentary
By Amaury Pi-González
The 122nd edition of Major League’s Fall Classic begins Friday. Once in a while (not often enough), baseball becomes the fairest of any sport. That is the case in 2026, with two excellent teams opening in Milwaukee this week for a best-of-7 series against Tampa Bay. It’s the first time these two teams have met in a World Series. The Brewers have never won a World Series; the Milwaukee Braves won their first title in 1957.
–Milwaukee. Is the smallest television and media market in Major League Baseball (MLB), ranking 30th out of 30 teams. The Milwaukee Brewers led the major leagues and the National League with 103 regular-season wins and, most importantly, did something nobody expected: they swept the two-time in-a-row World Champion Los Angeles Dodgers in the National League Championship Series.
World Series history. 1957 Milwaukee Braves won vs. NY Yankees 4-3… 1958 Braves vs. NY Yankees lost 3-4… 1982 Milwaukee Brewers lost vs. St. Louis Cardinals 3-4. The Brewers have never won a World Series; the city of Milwaukee won its first World Series title in 1957 as the Milwaukee Braves.
City of Milwaukee population: 502,000
–Tampa Bay is MLB’s 19th-largest television and media market. The Rays led the American League East (considered one of, if not the,elite divisions) with the Yankees and Red Sox. The Rays won 98 regular-season games, tops in the American League.
World Series history: 2008 vs. Philadelphia, lost 1-4. 2020 vs. LA Dodgers, lost 2-4. Note:2020: In the wake of the global COVID-19 pandemic, the World Series was played at a neutral site (Globe Life Field in Arlington) for the first time.
City of Tampa population: 417,635
Player to watch in this World Series.
Milwaukee’s 24-year-old right-handed pitcher Jacob Misioroswki, the best pitcher in baseball, will win the National League Cy Young Award. His numbers: 16-5, 1.80 ERA, 174.2 Innings pitched, and 252 strikeouts. He owns a lethal 4-seam fastball, which he throws at a record-average 101 to 105 mph, with a terrific curveball. The kid is 6’7″, 200 lbs. He should start Game #1 this Friday.
I am not predicting this, but just saying: there’s only been one perfect game in World Series history, thrown by Yankee pitcher Don Larsen in the 1956 World Series, when he retired all 27 Brooklyn Dodgers. If Misioroswki shows up with his best stuff… Who knows? Misioroski could throw a perfecto anytime, anywhere, including the World Series.
My prediction: Milwaukee in 6.
