It was a wacky day for Pennsylvania teams, as the Braves/Phillies and Pirates/Reds games accounted for 17 home runs. Scientists have tried to explain what happened, but they were all distracted by the lunar eclipse. Let’s get to the trots!

There’s a wonderful update to the last week’s story about David Ortiz setting the record for slowest (non-injury) trot of the Tater Trot Tracker era.

Busiest day of the season so far. With a full slate of Sunday games (and apparently some nice weather around the country), hitters slugged 42 home runs throughout the majors yesterday. Thankfully, a few of them were pretty special. One special trot not included below comes from Class A West Viriginia. Second-baseman Erich Weiss, of […]

This might be my favorite article on the Tater Trot Tracker that I’ve seen as the Wall Street Cheat Sheet runs down the six slowest (non-injury) trots of the Tater Trot Tracker-era. Now let’s get to the trots!

Just a quick update this Saturday afternoon (and mostly because of what happened in San Francisco). Let’s get to the trots!

There were a lot of new visitors to the site yesterday as word spread about David Ortiz setting the record for slowest trot of the Tater Trot Tracker era. Glad to see everybody! Sadly, there wasn’t a whole lot going on in the tater trot world on the bases last night, but that’s to be […]

David Ortiz has always been near the top of the Tater Trot Tracker leaderboard with his classic Papi trots. In 2010, he was the first player to break the 30-second barrier. Since then, he has dominated the “Slowest Trot” lists every year. Last year, for example, Ortiz had 7 of the 10 slowest trots of […]

Five different multi-home run games yesterday, including Jose Abreu’s first (and second) career home runs and a pair of home runs from Corey Hart in his first game in front of Seattle fans. One slugger rose above them all, however. Let’s get to the trots!

We can blame the rain for there only being seven games around the majors on Monday, but the scarcity of home runs (only six throughout the league) will have to be blamed on something else. I suggest Miley Cyrus. Let’s get to the trots!

Matt Kemp and Hanley Ramirez hit two home runs apiece in their ESPN Sunday Night Baseball game against the Giants. Apparently they were angry that they had to miss the Game of Thrones premiere. Let’s get to the trots!

Captain America: Winter Soldier was pretty great, though I was a bit disappointed that Steve never gave Nationals Park a visit. Considering the number of civilian casualties in the movie, however, it was probably a good thing for the citizens of Washington, D.C. Now let’s get to the trots!

I’ve got the new Captain America to see, so let’s make this quick. Let’s get right to the trots!

Your early leaders in the 2014 home run sweepstakes are Brandon Belt and Alejandro de Aza, who each hit their third home runs of the young season on Thursday. It’s all playing out just as everyone foretold. Let’s get to the trots!

One night after Carlos Gomez gave us his blistering 16-second trot, David Ortiz tried to top him in the only way he knows how. It was glorious. Let’s get to the trots!
