At Least It Was Close

Rays 7 Jays 6 (10 innings) The nice part about that game was the come back. The Jays were down 5-0. We were continuously told they would never score again. And then they got five runs in the seven to tie things up. It was a fun game to watch. In the seventh: Patrick Corbin […]

More of the Same: Dbacks 4, Rangers 7

Zac Gallen getting lit up, the Dbacks offense allowing an opposing pitcher to cruise through 8 innings needing only 95 pitches. I feel like I have typed this exact game recap multiple times already this season. So I will make this quick as there is not much that came from this game that is going […]

Twins 3, Marlins 0: Ober tosses a 2-hit Maddux

I don’t even know what to say about this game. We just witnessed Bailey Ober, 88 MPH fastball and all, toss an 89 pitch complete game shutout. He did it using mostly changeups and fastballs, picking up 4 strikeouts and a 43% whiff percentage with the changeup. The only blemishes on his day were singles […]

Mets blow out the Tigers as A.J. Ewing impresses

The Mets returned home after their west coast road trip to face the Tigers. Freddy Peralta was taking the mound for the Mets, looking to try and get back on the right foot after losing the final two games (and the series) against the Diamondbacks. Jack Flaherty was starting for the Tigers, struggling so far […]

Sloppy fielding sinks UConn baseball against Northeastern

Northeastern (32-18) got some revenge on UConn (30-23, 13-5 Big East) on Tuesday night after a late inning surge in a back and forth contest propelled them to a 10-6 road win at Elliot Ballpark. The Northeastern victory came about a month and a half after UConn scored 21 runs on the road to stun […]

Mets 10, Tigers 2: A lousy excuse for a ball game

After limping out of Kansas City bruised and full of more question-marks than The Riddler, the Tigers went to New York City to face the Mets, who have been terrible so far. Well, the questions kept coming as fast as the Mets scored runs in this one, with the New Yorkers besting the Detroiters by […]

Atlanta Braves take down red hot Cubs in one-hitter

The Atlanta Braves were riding high after a road trip out west that saw them win a series with the Dodgers. They were faced with a new test when the Chicago Cubs came to town. It just so happens that MLB ranked the Cubs as number one in the power rankings over the Braves even […]

Lake Elsinore loses series; all other affiliates surge

For the season, McCoy has a .284/.344/.885 line with 15 RBI. His vital stats state he is 6-5 and 260, but in a recent interview with MadFriars.com, McCoy […]

Purple Row After Dark: 1 thing the Rockies could improve

On Sunday, MLB.com published an article titled 1 thing each team can improve upon the rest of the way with nuggets of information from each team’s beat writer. Some teams need to be more productive with runners in scoring position, have more leadoff production or more base stealing, have a more consistent bullpen and more. […]

Wheels keep on rolling: Phillies 2, Red Sox 1

It’s hard to believe that Zack Wheeler was a major question mark less than a month ago. At least for now, he looked like the Zack Wheeler of old as he went 7.1 innings against the Red Sox while allowing one run on just 87 pitches in a 2-1 win. Kyle Schwarber tied the Phillies […]

Pirates 3, Rockies 1: Paul Skenes dominates

Pittsburgh’s PNC Park has never been a friendly stadium for the Colorado Rockies, and tonight was no exception, despite some late-game hits. For the first six innings of the game, the Rockies went hitless in the face of Pittsburgh Pirates ace Paul Skenes. Although they would not be no-hit, the Rockies would be unable to […]

5/12 Gamethread: Giants @ Dodgers

After a delightful win in the series opener, the San Francisco Giants are back at the ballpark to take on the Los Angeles Dodgers tonight, in the second game of a four-game series. We wish them the best in this journey. It’s right-hander Adrian Houser on the mound for San Francisco, as the 10-year veteran […]

Big-Inning Bombers bounce back to beat Birds in Baltimore

The 2026 Yankees have been masters of the crooked number. The fun comes in bunches this year, and that theme continued in Baltimore on Tuesday night as the Yankees plated five in the third inning en route to a 6-2 series-evening win. Paul Goldschmidt hit a leadoff homer on the game’s first pitch, and Trent […]

Game # 41, Athletics vs. Cardinals Game Thread

After a 3-3 six-game road trip, the Athletics return home tonight to take on the National League Central’s St. Louis Cardinals. After a less than stellar 2025 season, the Cardinals have looked much better this season, currently sitting in 3rd place, 3.5 games behind the league-leading Cubs. The Athletics are still leading the American League […]
