Durham Bulls 9, Charlotte Knights 6Both the Bulls (52-60) and the Knights (61-52) tallied 11 hits apiece, but the Charlotte pitching struggled with control, with eight combined walks to just seven strikeouts.

After dropping the opening game of this fight for first place yesterday, the White Sox honored Ozzie Guillén in his No. 13 retirement ceremony this afternoon — and that turned out to be a perfect time to bounce back and complement the ceremonies with a win.

The Colorado Rockies needed a little bit of everything Saturday night in St. Louis, and Jake McCarthy provided most of it. McCarthy went 4-for-5 with two home runs, three RBI, four runs scored, and two stolen bases as the Rockies beat the St. Louis Cardinals 8-6. Colorado improved to 46-71, while St. Louis fell to […]
Jordan Walker entered Saturday against the Colorado Rockies with a home run-less streak. Fans hadn’t seen the St. Louis Cardinals star rip one deep since his epic MLB Home Run Derby performance. Walker even battled a knee injury during the New York Yankees series. But the 2026 home run king finally went yard. Walker faced […] The post Jordan Walker finally goes yard for 1st time since Home Run Derby appeared first on ClutchPoints .

Tonight, Andrew Vaughn reminded Twins Territory why any player whose career has involved only the Chicago White Sox and Milwaukee Brewers is bad news for a team based in Minnesota. Vaughn’s tiebreaking eighth-inning single sealed the deal on a Brew Crew win, evening the series and handing the loss to recent acquisition Jeff Hoffman. The […]

The Phillies played awful baseball on Saturday night. Manager Don Mattingly made questionable decisions, they made poor plays on defense, the offense struggled against a 42-year-old pitcher, and the bullpen broke down. The result was that for the second straight night, they turned a very winnable game into a well-deserved loss to the Blue Jays, […]
The Orioles offense wasted yet another good start on Saturday night, scoring just once in a support of Kyle Bradish as they lost their third consecutive game, a 5-1 defeat at the hands of the hosting Texas Rangers. Another night, another putrid performance from an Orioles offense that was supposed to carry this team day-to-day. […]
Iowa Cubs The Iowa Cubs got demolished by Indianapolis (Pirates), 16-3. Starter Will Sanders didn’t make it out of the second inning. He got tagged for seven runs on five hits and three walks over 1.2 innings. He struck out one. A bright spot for the I-Cubs in this game is that Daniel Palencia threw […]

Well, Robert Stock’s second major league start this year didn’t go as well as his first did. In three innings, he gave up eight runs—all earned—on nine hits with four strikeouts and five walks, and he threw 80 pitches along the way. For a feel-good story like him, it’s a bit of a bummer. The […]
Matthew Liberatore’s start went south from the very first pitch, but he avoided a meltdown as the St. Louis Cardinals were playing catchup from the beginning of the game. The question would end up being whether their less than spectacular offense lately would muster enough runs to overcome the Rockies fast start. Short answer? No. […]
For five innings of one-hit ball, Guardians starter Gavin Williams backing up 100 mph heat with knee-buckling curveballs looked like the sort of neat trick that would dominate the night. And in the era where Ozzie Guillén managed, maybe it would have, at least for another out or so. Through 5 2/3 innings, the only mark against Williams was Munetaka Murakami getting the barrel around just in time on a 100 mph sinker to dink it off the left field foul pole for a solo shot. But the real point a...
Blue Jays 7 Phillies 5 (11 innings) That was a game and a half, as my dad would say. Baseball doesn’t get much better. Max Scherzer was great, thru five innings, and then gave up two solo homers in the sixth, before leaving the game. In all, he allowed 5 hits, 2 earned, 0 walks […]

It was set up to be a solid pitching matchup, with Astros SP Peter Lambert (entered game with 3.06 ERA) and Padres SP Michael King (entered game with 3.45 ERA) taking the mound today. Those two held up their end of the deal for a terrific matchup today at Petco Park. The Astros offense, however, […]
The Texas Rangers scored five runs while the Baltimore Orioles scored one run. If you enjoyed last night’s win for the Rangers over the Orioles, the teams were ready tonight to pretty much put on an encore performance before Corey Seager brought the house down.

The Los Angeles Dodgers have one of the most talented pitching rotations in MLB.However, they haven’t stayed fully healthy all season. While they welcomed Tarik Skubal into the group over the last week, they’re still without Tyler Glasnow, Shohei Ohtani and Blake Snell.On a positive note, Snell is set to make his return start on […] The post Major Injury Update Emerges on Shohei Ohtani’s Pitching Status: Report appeared first on HEAVY .

From White Sox southpaw Hagen Smith to Red Sox shortstop Franklin Arias, these MLB prospects can meaningfully alter the postseason race.
Jac Caglianone was the first Royal to get 12 or more total bases in a game since Lorenzo Cain had his three-home run game against the Yankees on May 10, 2016 and the Royals won 6-3. It was also the first time a Royal had hit four extra-base hits in a game since Kendrys Morales’ […]
