The most telling statistic in the San Francisco Giants’ 2-1 loss to the Cincinnati Reds is the two teams’ pitch counts. Four Giants pitchers combined to throw 145 pitches in eight innings. The Reds got through nine innings against the free-swinging Giants in just 111 pitches, an average of 12.3 per inning. The Giants had […]

Game two of three in Milwaukee. I have such a dislike of Bud Selig that I don’t I could go to Milwaukee to watch a game. I know he doesn’t own the team anymore (and that he’s over 90 years old), but he worked very hard to kill off my Expos and was just an […]
Nick Wang just won’t give the Huskies a break. After smashing three home runs against UConn back on March 10, Wang’s go-ahead seventh inning two-run blast on Wednesday put Boston College ahead for good, as the Eagles (28-12) swept the season series against UConn (20-18) with a 8-5 win. The graduate student now has five […]
It’s been a tough road trip for the Colorado Rockies as they are the losers of five straight games and dropped another close affair 7-6 on Tuesday against the Houston Astros. The offense came to life a little bit better, but it wasn’t enough to overcome a bad start on the mound, and the Rockies […]

The San Diego Padres continued their recent stretch of success by winning their MLB-leading sixth straight game, taking the series opener from the Seattle Mariners. It was an all-around success, with fantastic defense, great pitching and an offense that just wouldn’t quit against one of the game’s best pitchers in Bryan Woo. They’ll look to […]

A pitching staff off to a marvelous start in 2026, the Yankees have had more than their fair share of issues against the Angels in this four-game set at home. It’ll be up to Luis Gil to right the ship. The right-hander missed out on a spot in the Opening Day rotation as the Yanks […]

Today is the 79th anniversary of the day Jack Robinson made his debut with the Brooklyn Dodgers and broke MLB’s longstanding color barrier. To honor that feat and his legacy, all MLB players will don jerseys with #42 on them today. In Cincinnati, the Reds will play host to the San Francisco Giants. Rhett Lowder […]
Folks, the vibes are bad. The Brewers, after a wonderful start, have lost six in a row. The bullpen, an expected strength, is hanging on by a thread, and there are urgent questions about the closer’s role. Three of the team’s five best hitters are on the shelf, with no returns expected for at least […]

His last start was in the Giants’ 5-0 win […]
After getting blown out on Monday, the Nats responded nicely, grinding out a 5-4 victory yesterday. That evened the series and put the Nationals one game below .500. They will look to get to .500 tonight against the Pirates in the third game of a four game set. This also a special day around the […]
If you read the little text under this article, I dubbed this a must win game for the Royals. While this is just game 18 on the season, this game tonight is huge for the vibes and direction of the team. The Royals are 7-10 on the season, mostly because of inept offense, they’ve scored […]
The San Diego Padres are on a roll, as they have won nine of their last 11 games. They sit comfortably in second place in the National League West. But the momentum may turn for the worse after Nick Pivetta left his last start with right elbow stiffness. The injury has forced the Padres to […]
