If you were to rank the best and most beloved Yankees in history, most of them would share at least one trait: they probably won a couple World Series rings. There’s some people on the current day team that unfortunately haven’t checked that off the list yet, but basically since Babe Ruth showed up in […]

The most disappointing Louisville baseball season of the Dan McDonnell era ended the only way it could have: With a thud. Cardinal pitching surrendered five runs before recording an out as 11th-seeded U of L was blasted by 14th-seeded Pitt, 16-8, in a first round matchup from Charlotte that didn’t conclude until the early hours […]
Ole Miss is set to take on Missouri in the first round of the SEC Baseball Tournament, which will hopefully launch the Rebels into a string of wins that boosts their chances to host a regional. The Tigers are the worst team in the league (6-24 SEC record) and haven’t won a tournament game in […]
Auburn basketball rebuilt its roster around depth, defense and experience after last season’s thin rotation derailed the Tigers under Steven Pearl.
And the beat goes on. Jacob Misiorowski was fantastic and the Brewers offense had just enough timely hits to put this one largely out of reach. The Cubs bats did make some late noise and made it interesting, but in the end it was too little, too late and the Cubs dropped their fourth straight. […]
We know how much Syracuse loves making t-shirts to mark occassions. Well a couple of days ago, this image appeared on social media showing the score bug from the 2024 World Series. But it’s not the final score, no it’s the moment when the Yankees lead was about to unravel. (Sorry Yankees fans but this […]
Zach Thornton is the son of a pair of collegiate track athletes, but his athletic career went in a different direction. Excelling on the baseball diamond, he attended Lawrence Free State High School in Lawrence, Kansas. Despite the modicum of success he had as a high school pitcher, he was far from a must-follow prospect. […]
A very interesting piece of information came along over this past weekend while the Phillies were sweeping the Pirates. Sports Nippon reported that the Phillies sent general manager Preston Mattingly along with five other representatives to Japan to personally scout Teruaki Sato of the Hanshin Tigers in Nippon Professional Baseball. Matt Gelb of the Athletic […]
Here are the lineups for the series finale. Let’s discuss. For the Phillies: For the Reds:
Worcester: L, 6-7 (BOX SCORE) Nate Eaton’s three hits at the top of the order couldn’t overcome how rough Roger Burgos’ four-inning start was, nor a home run allowed by a rehabbing Danny Coulombe. The WooSox never led the Red Wings (Nationals AAA) but kept it close, scoring three runs in the seventh. Still, the […]
There are very few pitchers in the 2026 MLB draft that are better than Tegan Kuhns. Kuhns, the Friday night starter and staff ace of the Tennessee Volunteers, hails from Gettysburg, Pennsylvania and has a shot to be one of the better starting pitching prospects from this class. The 6’3 Kuhns has a lankier build […]
1920 At Griffith Stadium in Washington, the White Sox set the team record for the most runs ever scored in an extra inning. In the 16th inning, they were able to score eight times to beat the Senators, 13-5. The Senators made nine errors on the day, leading to nine unearned runs. Hall of Fame pitcher Red […]
So far during the 2026 Major League Baseball season, the Cincinnati Reds have received a collective .207 wOBA from the 3B position. That ranks dead last in the entire league. That’s side by side with a 21 wRC+ (last), .157 average (last), .219 OBP (last), .229 SLG (last), and 12 RBI (last). It will likely […]

Just about a month ago, I sat here and told you the Royals offense was still bad, after being bad for most of last season, and that hitting coach Alec Zumwalt needed to go. A month later, the Royals are in no better position, and they are bad at EVERYTHING. They are 20-29, tied for […]

While the Nats have been pretty relatively successful this season so far at the plate , they are not sitting on their laurels. Yesterday they officially sent Brady House down and optioned Joey Weimer to make room for Dylan Crews and Andres Chaparro to come up. Why? Well sort of because Jacob Young got hit by a pitch. On Monday Jacob Young took a pitch to the ribs. It was apparently pretty bad and he's nursing some bruised ribs. Jacob defensively is the glue that holds the OF ...
While head coach Mike Bianco and the Ole Miss Baseball team treated Game 1 of the SEC Tournament like a normal Tuesday mid-week contest, the Missouri Tigers team that hasn’t won an SEC Tournament game in six years, played like it mattered. Bianco trotted out former Mizzou pitcher Wil Libbert, the normal mid-week starter while […]
It’s heart attack hotel with this Yankees relief corps, but the bullpen managed to survive another ninth inning comeback attempt to secure consecutive one-run victories over the Blue Jays. It’s made all the more important that they managed to win on a day when Blue Jays ace Dylan Cease was starting, Ryan McMahon and Ben […]
The Alex Verdugo experiment ended for the San Diego Padres last week when the former major leaguer underwent surgery on his injured shoulder and was released by the Friars. He had been in Arizona for extended Spring Training and then began playing with the ACL Padres. The announcement this past week indicates the end of […]
Good morning everyone, and happy Wednesday! The Mariner bats couldn’t string together hits at the right time in last night’s 2-1 loss to the White Sox. People will surely be arguing about Dan Wilson’s decision to leave Luis Castillo in for the ninth for weeks to come, too. Generally speaking, are you more worried about […]
Happy Wednesday Athletics fans! After several consecutive losing seasons, the A’s entered 2026 with renewed expectations, aiming to finish above .500 and remain in playoff contention late in the season. Through nearly 50 games, the A’s have played like a .500 team, yet they still sit atop an underwhelming American League West in which no […]
Barcelona have been fairly quiet in the last few transfers windows due to their financial constraints but did still manage to bring in players for the 2025-26 season. The biggest signing of last summer was the arrival of Joan Garcia from Espanyol. Barca sensed a market opportunity and took it, with Garcia going on to […]
