One of the keys to winning baseball games is hitting the ball. While it is possible to achieve victory without recording a base hit, history has shown that getting multiple hits in a ball game is far more conducive to winning. In their game against the Miami Marlins on Saturday, the Phillies did not get […]

Well, here we are again. It’s Kentucky Derby Day, but for some mysterious reason they decided that that race isn’t going to start until 6:57pm Eastern Time, and we were in Chicago playing another early game because apparently it is simply too cold to play baseball on the western shore of Lake Michigan once the […]

On a sunny, but blustery and chilly afternoon at Wrigley Field, two Cubs totally dominated the action. Shōta Imanaga had another outstanding start, scattering four hits over seven innings and striking out five. And Ian Happ doubled, tripled and homered, scoring both of the Cubs’ runs in a 2-0 shutout of the Diamondbacks, the Cubs’ […]
Go Rays!
Maryland baseball fans were treated to a storyline that felt eerily familiar in the second game of the Terps’ weekend series against Michigan. Only six days before, Michigan State paced Maryland in a nine-run inning. That forced the Terps into a run-rule loss in only seven innings. Against the Wolverines, the Terps allowed a similar […]

The San Francisco Giants are set to face the Tampa Bay Rays this afternoon, and the hope is that they can start to turn around a miserable road trip, though they’re fast running out of time. San Francisco has lost the first four games of the six-game swing, and that underscores how bad it’s been: […]
The Mariners made a surprising move to bolster their bullpen today, calling up right-handed reliever Nick Davila from Double-A Arkansas. In a corresponding move, LHP Josh Simpson – who was just summoned yesterday from Triple-A – was returned to Tacoma. The Mariners roster is now full at 40 players. If you’re not familiar with Davila’s […]
Blue Jays 11 Twins 4 Jays did everything they needed to do in the top of the eighth: But there was also bad news, George Springer took a pitch off the, already broken, toe and had to come out of the game. I’d imagine he’ll be back on the IL. I was wrong the Jays […]
Considering how the 2025 campaign began, the start of the 2026 Braves season has been a breath of fresh air for everyone who is invested. That must be particularly true for Braves general manager and president of baseball operations Alex Anthopoulos. A streak of seven straight postseason appearances which began in his second season with […]
On Saturday, the Detroit Tigers placed right-handed reliever Will Vest on the 15-day injured list with right forearm inflammation. The Triple-A Toledo Mud Hens top reliever in April, right-hander Ricky Vanasco, has been added to the 40-man roster and called up to Detroit. To open a spot, RHP Yoniel Curet has been designated for assignment. […]
New York didn’t do much in the offseason, with much consternation given to the “run it back” attitude towards the roster. Part of that was a lot of debate about whether or not the Yankees should commit to Cody Bellinger long term. For at least one day, that signing turned out to be a great […]
As the Braves go for yet another series win, they turn to Chris Sale at Coors Field, expecting to see the Rockies’ young star Chase Dollander, with Brennan Bernardino as the opener. Michael Harris returns to the starting lineup at DH after his epic game-winning home run Friday night, as he continues to nurse his […]
Ansu Fati was on target yet again for Monaco on Saturday in Ligue 1 to secure a comeback win for his side over Metz. Monaco went behind early in the second half to a goal from Jessy Deminguet but managed to level through Folarin Balogun just after the hour mark. Fati then sealed the winner […]
After yet another home loss, the Nats will look to get back on track at Nationals Park. They are now 3-11 at home, which is the worst in the league. There was not much they could do against Jacob Misiorowski last night, so hopefully the offense can get going against a different pitcher. There will […]
After the Brewers’ offense kept rolling in last night’s game against the Nationals, they will try to keep that momentum going this afternoon. It will be a rematch of starting pitchers from three weeks ago, when these teams played on April 11. First, we have today’s set of injury updates. After Jacob Misiorowski left last […]
After an epic comeback victory in game 1, the Braves will hope to secure yet another series win behind their ace against a Rockies team that is generally not good but has been competitive this season. Chris Sale has been great this season, despite one of his career-worst starts against the Angels. Coors can always […]
