On Thursday, the Giants beat the Padres 9-8 in a wild contest to wrap up one of the two NL Wild Card berths. Technically, San Francisco clinched a spot earlier in the afternoon when the Brewers lost to the Reds, but they made it official after the victory against San Diego. The Giants still have […]

The Derek Jeter farewell season has come to a fitting conclusion – the Yankee captain hit a walk off single in his final at bat at Yankee Stadium to give the Yankees a 6-5 win over the Orioles. Sure, Jeter technically has three games left in his career at Fenway Park this weekend. But you really couldn’t […]

In case you haven’t heard, today is Derek Jeter’s last ever game at Yankee Stadium. Charmin commemorated the event perfectly. Thanks for being you, Charmin. Never change.

During game one of Thursday’s Mets-Nationals doubleheader at Nationals Park, MLB.com’s Anthony DiComo tempted fate by tweeting out a link to this article he posted just an hour earlier. Two minutes later, this happened. Thanks a lot, Dillon Gee. This is why the Mets can’t have nice things.

You may have missed it among the endless parade of Derek Jeter ceremonies, but Paul Konerko is also retiring after the 2014 season. Konerko thanked White Sox fans in this tremendous video recapping his excellent career on the South Side. In 16 seasons with the White Sox, Konerko hit .281/.357/.491 with 432 homers. He was a […]

The Kiss Cam at ballparks is an abomination. Yet sometimes, it provides us with a moment that is hilarious rather than cringeworthy. This was the case during Tuesday night’s Giants-Dodgers game at Dodger Stadium. It was clearly pre-planned, but it’s great to see a couple with opposing allegiances have fun when they get put on […]

In the first inning of Tuesday’s Giants-Dodgers game, Madison Bumgarner hit Yasiel Puig in the ankle with a pitch. The two then had words, and some brief chaos erupted at Dodger Stadium. No one was ejected, and tempers were quickly diffused. Two batters later, Matt Kemp launched his 24th homer of the year to score […]

The Pittsburgh Pirates beat the Atlanta Braves 3-2 on Tuesday night, and will be heading back to the Postseason for the second consecutive year. This was a team that started off 18-26, and was eight games out of first place in the NL Central on May 20th. Since then, they’ve gone 68-45, good for a […]

Oyo, which produces LEGO-esque MLB-themed figures, has created this video highlighting Derek Jeter and the best plays of his career using their figures. Huh, that’s weird. I had no idea Pat Corbin pitched for the Diamondbacks in 2001. At any rate, this is still pretty cool (and a little bit creepy).

Yasiel Puig’s ridiculous right arm is possibly the best aspect of his game. In the 11th inning of Monday’s Giants-Dodgers game, Puig nailed Brandon Belt at the plate with an absolute laser. Yeah, that’s just disgusting. The look on Belt’s face afterwards was priceless. It’s not just that Puig’s throw was strong, it was incredibly […]

In case you weren’t aware, Jose Altuve is short. How short? Well…. That’s absurdity at its most absurd. The soon-to-be AL batting champion finished with just one hit in Houston’s 4-3 loss to Texas on Monday night.

The story here isn’t Lucas Duda homering off of Julio Teheran to give the Mets a 2-0 lead. No, it’s this Braves fan catching the homer in his bucket of popcorn. Nice play, man. I’d make a Falcons joke, but considering they destroyed the Bucs on Thursday night, I think they’re just fine with receivers […]

The Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim clinched their first AL West title since 2009, thanks in large part to a tremendous comeback by the Texas Rangers in Oakland. You can’t make this up. After the Rangers collapsed down the stretch in 2012 (and in 2013, to a lesser extent) to hand the division title to […]

This clip from Wednesday night’s Nationals-Braves game at Turner Field is going to make you wince…and then maybe laugh. Ah jeez. I’m laughing. The poor guy had no chance at this foul ball. What’s more embarrassing – the Braves’ play on the field this September, or this fan completely whiffing on catching this foul ball […]
