Dogs and cats have been fighting for an eternity. Today will be no different for the LSU Tigers and Louisiana Tech Bulldogs. LSU and Louisiana Tech first met on October 28, 1901, and LSU took a resounding 57-0 win while Tech was still known as Louisiana Industrial. The Tigers and Bulldogs have faced each other […]
We’ve gotten to a point in the Phillies’ recent playoff history where we can rank the crushing losses they have experienced at home over the last three Octobers. Here’s my ranking from least-to-most devastating: From the start of the 2022 playoffs through Game 2 of the 2023 NLCS, the Phillies’ homefield advantage at Citizens Bank […]
Aaron Boone’s New York Yankees are enjoying the return of Aaron Judge to the lineup at a crucial point in the 2026 MLB season. While Aaron Boone took a cautious approach to Aaron Judge ’s return , there is no doubt that the presence of No. 99 has had a very positive impact on the Bronx Bombers at this stage of the season. The manager, delighted to have him back, acknowledged how much stronger the team has become not only with Judge’s presence, but also with the return of other players from i...
Good morning, foLLks, and happy Saturday! The Mariners lost a heartbreaker in Sacramento last night, pushing their elimination number into single digits. The less said about it, the better (but still give Nick Vitalis-Troupe’s recap a read!). In Mariners news: Around the league:
Atlanta Braves star slugger Matt Olson perfectly summed up Friday night’s wild 6-5 comeback win over the Philadelphia Phillies in 11 innings at Truist Park. The victory opened a crucial three-game NL East series and extended the Braves’ NL East divisional lead from four to five games. Olson also contributed a first-inning solo homer before […] The post Braves star Matt Olson perfectly sums up thrilling comeback win vs. Phillies appeared first on ClutchPoints .
The Minnesota Twins announced they called up top prospect Emmanuel Rodriguez on Saturday.
For over two decades, the Milwaukee Brewers were perennially one of the worst teams in Major League Baseball. As much as fans currently criticize owner Mark Attanasio, it cannot be denied that this era of Brewers baseball is the best in franchise history. Admittedly, they have yet to reach the World Series under Attanasio’s ownership. [...]
The Missouri football team picked up a key non conference win on Friday, over the Kansas Jayhawks. Missouri head coach Eli Drinkwitz addressed what had occurred before the game, in his postgame presser. Kansas had released a video about Missouri, describing them as villains.

Regular readers know that I’ve followed one of the great Cy Young horse races in recent memory, with Cam Schlittler going great start-for-great start with the Blue Jays’ Dylan Cease. We got a little bit of separation this week, as the Athletics touched up Cease for four runs in five innings on Monday, and then […]

Friday night was the dagger for me. For many others, the dagger came a lot sooner. I can’t blame them. The Phillies had the first game of a three-game series in Atlanta seemingly in hand before the bullpen once again bullpened, but also because they had chances to tack on some extra runs in the […] The post Get Off My Lawn (And the Basepaths) appeared first on Crossing Broad .
The Milwaukee Brewers went into Friday night as one of the few teams in Major League Baseball without a grand slam this season. Garrett Mitchell gave them their first one of the year, and Milwaukee obliterated the Cincinnati Reds 20-0. Indeed, it was a game that the Brewers controlled from the get-go. Dustin May pitched [...]
Good morning, LSB. The Rangers lost another last night, a 9-1 stomping by the Diamondbacks. Evan Grant writes that…yeah, that might just about do it for this version of the Texas Rangers. Kennedi Landry writes about Wyatt Langford faltering down the stretch. The Rangers thinning bullpen continues to be a source of stress. Josh Jung […]
Tampa Bay Rays star Junior Caminero delivered a two-run walk-off homer Friday night, beating the Houston Astros 3-1 and clinching the Rays’ first postseason berth since 2023. His 40th homer ended the series opener at Tropicana Field and made Tampa Bay the first MLB team to secure a 2026 playoff spot. Afterward, theScore’s Bryan Mcwilliam […] The post What Rays star Junior Caminero said after walking off Astros with 2-run bomb appeared first on ClutchPoints .
The Clemson Tigers have an opportunity to bounce back in Week 2 against the Georgia Southern Eagles after an ugly 51-10 loss to the No. 8 LSU Tigers. It’s a moment for Dabo Swinney to quiet the critics, as the outside noise has grown louder than ever before. While that may be the case, Kirk […] The post Kirk Herbstreit is ready to hit panic button on Dabo Swinney after Clemson’s embarrassing loss to LSU appeared first on ClutchPoints .
Football is back. This weekend is the first of the season to feature a full slate of both college and NFL football, and fans across the country are set to settle in for a long stay on the couch and let the games pour over them. But at least one football fan — ESPN’s “Stanford”…
After the Lane Kiffin era kicked off with close to as good of a game as anyone could have hoped for, the Tigers turn their attention to in-state foe, Louisiana Tech. The Bulldogs are coming off of an 80-6 thrashing of Northwestern St in week 1. While that program is down, LA Tech scoring 80 […]
Maureen Mullen at MLB writes that Jac Caglianone took some BP on Friday. Jac Caglianone took on-field batting practice before Friday’s series opener against the Red Sox at Fenway Park for the first time since suffering a Grade 1 flexor strain in his left elbow in Saturday’s loss to the Blue Jays. Before taking a regular rotation with […]
Two open postseason questions for the White Sox farm system were resolved on Friday, for better or for worse. For better: Greensboro rallied with a three-run eighth to beat the Frederick, 7-5, so the Winston-Salem Dash will face the Grasshoppers in the latest installment of the Battle of I-40: The South Atlantic League Championship Series.… The post White Sox Minor Keys: Sept. 11, 2026 appeared first on Sox Machine .
Sadly, the minor league season is winding to a close with only Springfield and Memphis still playing. I thought now would be a good time to check out how last year’s draft class fared in their first professional season. First Round (5th overall) – Liam Doyle, LHP Doyle started the season slow, but ended up […]
On Tuesday, Jamal Roberts hammered home “the standard” that comes with being in Mizzou’s running back room and how, going into Kansas, it would be more important than ever to meet it. But gauging how Mizzou’s rushing attack met that standard Friday night was a tough nut to crack. In the end, the Tigers walked […]
Home sweet home. The Cubs returned home and the offense produced 12 runs. Another blowout win. Another double digit run scoring game. The Cubs did what they do best. They were patient. They moved the line. They all contributed. WPA is a fickle friend. It’s a hard curve that anyone ended up with a negative […]
