Alex Rodriguez is having a pretty good year so far for the New York Yankees, and in the second inning of their game on Friday night with the Rays at Tropicana Field, he smashed a home run 477 feet off of Nate Karns. Needless to say, that’s the longest homer of the young 2015 season. […]

Today is April 16th. The 2015 MLB season is already a week and a half old. And naturally, it’s snowing at Coors Field in Denver. Woof. The Rockies just finished sweeping the Giants in San Francisco, and will take on the Dodgers in Los Angeles this weekend. Hopefully all that snow is gone and replaced […]

Crazy things happen in the Rogers Centre outfield, and on Wednesday, another one of those crazy moments happened. Check out this catch by Blue Jays left fielder Kevin Pillar to rob Rays second baseman Tim Beckham of a homer in the seventh inning. . Like…how? What? That’s not a short fence, and Pillar wasn’t exactly running […]

The most important player for the Colorado Rockies this season might not be Carlos Gonzalez or Troy Tulowitzki, but instead third baseman Nolan Arenado. Arenado already has a reputation as one of the best defensive third basemen in baseball, and his bat isn’t exactly mediocre. Arenado showed off that glove on Tuesday night, making this […]

On Tuesday night, a scary moment that you absolutely never want to see happened at Progressive Field in Cleveland – Indians starter Carlos Carrasco got hit in the face with a line drive. Thankfully, Carrasco got his glove up and slightly deflected the ball, leading to it hitting his cheek instead of his forehead or […]

In some of the most depressing bat flip related news we’ve ever heard, Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Yasiel Puig is going to be making an effort to cut back on his theatric, entertaining bat flips this season. Why? Because he doesn’t want to give off the impression that he’s disrespectful. The LA Times has the […]

Jon Lester hadn’t made a pickoff throw in two years. He ended that streak on Monday night against the Reds, and the results were very nearly disastrous. But right fielder Jorge Soler was around to gun out Zach Cozart, who was trying to turn Lester’s one-base error into a two-base error. Soler also came up […]

I’m trying not to rip on the 5-1 Atlanta Braves too much…but I’m really not sure what Fredi Gonzalez and his coaching staff were thinking by challenging this stunning diving catch by Christian Yelich. Yeah, it looked like the ball came out of his glove at first…but one look at the replay would have showed […]

If you went to the San Francisco Giants home opener today and didn’t pay out the nose for parking, consider yourself lucky. Lots near the stadium were charging as much as $100 for a spot before the World Champions raised their 2014 banner. For what it’s worth, this technically isn’t “gouging” since you have the […]

So, how did the San Francisco Giants celebrate their 2014 World Championship at Monday’s home opener at AT&T Park? By having Madison Bumgarner ride in with the banner on a horse, of course. During the World Series parade in the fall, Bumgarner wanted to ride a horse, but the San Francisco Police Department wouldn’t let […]

Red Sox rookie Mookie Betts is taking the world by storm In the top of the first inning, he robbed Bryce Harper of a homer with this ridiculous catch. Then in the bottom of the first inning, he stole second and third base on the same play thanks to Washington shifting on David Ortiz, despite a […]

I’m not going to use the word “classy” because I’m an adult, but this New York Mets fan didn’t exactly act in the most mature way after Daniel Murphy doubled to right field in the fourth inning. He threw his beer at Phillies right fielder Grady Sizemore. Well, that’s uncalled for. Murphy would score two batters […]

We’re six games into the 2015 season, and Bryan Price is already whining. The Cincinnati Reds manager’s latest gripe? A slide into third base by Cardinals outfielder Jason Heyward in the fifth inning of Sunday’s 7-5, 11 inning Cardinals win. Here’s the relevant quote, via the St Louis Post-Dispatch. “Something happened at third base with […]

Check out this catch during Sunday’s Astros-Rangers game. George Springer robbed Leonys Martin of what would have been a walk off grand slam in the bottom of the tenth inning. Words can’t express how ridiculous this catch is. And just for the hell of it, here’s the catch in gif form. Take a bow, sir. […]
