The A’s and Yankees had a duel on Wednesday evening in the Bronx. One day after dropping a close game in the late innings, it was the Athletics’ turn as they beat the Yankees thanks to a top of the ninth RBI to win 3-2. Close but we’ll take it. Right-hander Luis Severino was on […]
Enough of the new season smell has worn off that we can all say this game was a bit miserable. The Yankees had a golden opportunity to blow the contest open in the first inning, and after the first three Yanks all reached base, barely a soul managed to do so for the rest of […]

The news on Zach Eflin’s injury came back on Wednesday evening and it was as bad as you could have guessed from the get-go. The Orioles announced that Eflin had Tommy John surgery to repair the torn ulnar collateral ligament in his pitching elbow on Wednesday. The only surprising thing about the announcement is that […]
Over the course of a 162 game season, the team you root for will have days where they definitionally and categorically do not have it, whether you root for the best team in the league or the worst. Today was one of those days for the 2026 Mets, who dropped game two of their mid-week […]

Wednesday was a historic day in Pittsburgh Pirates and Pittsburgh sports history. It’s a day that will be remembered for what could be the jumpstart of the new era of Pirates baseball. The Pirates officially signed shortstop Konnor Griffin to a nine-year extension that will keep Griffin under contract through 2034. ESPN’s Buster Olney initially […]
NFL draft prospects are examined in more ways than just on the field production. Their health and past issues are poked and prodded all the way until draft day.

At what point do we switch from saying “it is still early?” to “this is legit”? That is what we tried to figure out with Kevin Wheeler from KMOX on Cardinals on My Time this week with the Redbird Rundown crew. Wheeler is one of our all-time favorites and oh man, did he have a […]

The offense started early and didn’t stop until well past clobberin’ time, leading to an 8-2 victory over the Angels. Meanwhile, Grant Holmes did […]
An awful road trip got even worse as the Astros were swept by the Colorado Rockies, falling under .500. You know those days where nothing goes right straight from the jump? The Astros do too. Today was one of those days. Looking to salvage the finale of a 3 game series against the Rockies in […]
Game Summary The Cardinals open up by leaving the bases loaded in the top of the first, but struck for two runs in the second, keyed by a 2-RBI Burleson single. McGreevy came out and worked in his normal workmanlike manner, which was welcome against this line-up, which has really been scoring runs. The Nats […]
The Phillies got their obligatory series loss in San Francisco out of the way early this year, going out with a whimper in the rubber match of the series thanks to a silent offense and a back-breaking home run allowed by Aaron Nola. They have still not won a series in San Francisco since 2013 […]
Go get ‘em, Colin.
After spearheading last night’s thrilling comeback win, Amed Rosario finds himself back in the starting lineup, and I will be expecting another two home runs from today’s third baseman. He and the rest of the Yankees will be facing off against the man who was once seen as the future long-term ace of the staff, […]
