For the sixth straight Sunday, the Braves were victorious. And even more enjoyable was the Braves got the job done early in the 8-1 win over the Red Sox. Atlanta just continues to roll along, as they are now 14-1-1 in individual series so far this season. Another good developlment is the production of Mike […]
The term “meteoric rise” is a bit of a misnomer, though most people already know that. Meteors fall (And yet if you point this out, you are a pedant? The world is cruel to those brave enough to obsess over wording tell the truth). However, it is quite the fitting turn of phrase for baseball, […]
Charlotte Knights 15, Norfolk Tides 3The Knights (22-23) bats exploded for 15 hits, scoring as many runs to defeat the Tides (18-27) and split this week’s series. Duncan Davitt made his seventh start of the season, and though he’s held an elevated ERA of more than seven, he was able to lower it slightly today […]
The Los Angeles Dodgers set a franchise record by using 40 different pitchers in 2024, then did it again in 2025. This was after using 39 pitchers in both 2021 and 2023. Here are all the pitchers who appeared in a game for the Dodgers in 2026, starting with Yoshinobu Yamamoto on opening day through […]
Padres 8, Mariners 3 Super Boy: J.P. Crawford, .02 WPA Superbolide: George Kirby, -.18 WPA Game Thread Comment of the Day:
The 2026 Rockies appear poised to win more games than they did the past couple seasons, but realistically, they are only fighting to avoid 100 losses. That’s improvement, but the season is clearly a transitional one attempting to set the stage for a more exciting future. Given that, let’s imagine a world where we could […]
D-backs 8, Rockies 6 [Guest recap]
The Cubs claimed right-hander Christian Roa off of waivers from the Orioles and assigned him to Triple-A Iowa. The Cubs are Roa’s fourth team this year already. Iowa blew a two-one lead in the ninth. Knoxville rallied after trailing by two in the ninth. Iowa Cubs The Iowa Cubs lost their seventh-straight game, 4-3 to […]
Rangers 8, Astros 0
During my tenure at Pinstripe Alley—hell, during my entire time as a baseball fan—I’ve never been shy about delving into the team’s history and exploring the lives of its long roll call of players, both incredible and regrettable. We provide plenty of other coverage on the current-day activities of the teams, so I like having […]
This afternoon’s rubber match against the Arizona Diamondbacks started after a rain delay that lasted almost two hours. By the time first pitch finally came around one could hardly tell it had been pouring not too long ago. However, spirits were certainly damp as the Colorado Rockies went down early and failed to mount a […]
The San Francisco Giants closed out their three-game series with the Don’t-Call-Us-Sacramento A’s on Sunday and winning the series was a breeze. A stiff wind blew in from left field at Sutter Health Park, but that didn’t stop Luis Arraez and Harrison Bader from hitting home runs out to right, the last one for a […]
The Athletics and Giants battled in the rubber-game of their three-game set on a windy Sunday afternoon in Sacramento. While the wind helped both teams score runs, the weather did not play that much of a factor in this game’s result. Rather it was the A’s bullpen and defensive collapse in the eighth inning, when […]
On the heels of one of the worst seasons in school history, Arizona has already begun to make changes for 2027. Kendall Rogers of D1Baseball is reporting that hitting coach Toby DeMello will not return to the UA, ending his tenure after five seasons. It is technically the third coaching change Chip Hale had had […]
The Mariners may have to patch together thier bullpen for a bit longer. While Gabe Speier looked good in a bullpen today, Matt Brash struggled through two-thirds of an inning in Tacoma. Matt Brash threw his second game with the Rainiers this afternoon. He’s been on the IL since April 29 when he had to […]
Here we go — the first Brewers-Cubs series of the 2026 season, and their first meeting since the Brewers beat the Cubs 3-2 in last season’s NLDS. The Crew is headed to Wrigley Field, as they’ll take on the Cubs for three games beginning Monday night. The Brewers are coming off a series win over […]

You can probably guess why the headline to this recap is what it is, because, well, there aren’t many non-profane words to describe the Cubs’ 9-8 loss to the White Sox Sunday afternoon on the South Side. Two blown three-run leads. A remarkable ninth-inning comeback. And then… well, just too many home runs served up […]
Who’s rising? Who’s falling so far in the minor leagues for the Cardinals? We had on Kyle Reis to speak about that and worked in conversations about who the next man up might be for various spots on the big league roster. As usual when you involved Kyle, it was an entertaining and thought provoking […]
The Mariners are trying to avoid being swept by the Padres for the season, having failed to win a single game against them so far while losing possession of the prized Vedder Cup guitar. Thoughts and prayers to Pete Woodworth. George Kirby will take the mound for the Mariners as Seattle’s last hope for a […]
It’s a good thing Miguel Vargas is currently playing like he wants to wear an All-Star jersey in a couple of months, because something tells me the White Sox won’t be getting anything else in return for Erick Fedde when he departs the rotation this time around. Despite what wound up being a cathartic, 9-8 […]

The Dodgers did not forget how they fared against the Angels last year. This year, the Dodgers are returning the favor as they completed the sweep of the Angels on Sunday behind Roki Sasaki’s finest start at the big league level, taking the finale 10-1. The Dodgers once again took the first lead, as after […]
After today’s loss to the Orioles, I could focus on the negatives, but I do not think that is the story of this weekend. Even though the Nats could not pull off the sweep, it was still a very successful weekend in the nation’s capital. The Nats did something they have not done in a […]
