While L.A. will rack up plenty of air miles, being well-traveled does not appear to affect a team’s success or playoff chances as much as you might expect. According to Bookies.com’s Bill Speros, the Rams […]

According to several leaks, which have been confirmed, the San Francisco 49ers will open the season against the Los Angeles Rams in Australia and will face the Minnesota Vikings in Mexico City. Because of the Australia trip, Los Angeles and San Francisco are tops in the NFL in travel miles. The concern is fatigue from […]
While Shohei Ohtani has been struggling at the plate recently, he’s made opposing hitters look even worse. Wednesday night was arguably his best pitching start of the season with seven scoreless innings and eight strikeouts against the San Francisco Giants. Perspective is important with Ohtani, who has legitimately had a rough go of it while […]
We can expect multiple schedule leaks ahead of the official release scheduled for early Thursday. So far, we know the San Francisco 49ers’ two international games, but that’s it for leaks.

The Giants beat the Dodgers 29-2 on Wednesday, with their two best players combining to hit 8-8 with a home run, four doubles, four walks, and a stolen base.

Matthew Liberatore had a really strong 4 innings, but it was a 41-pitch 5th inning that ended his night and allowed the Athletics to beat the St. Louis Cardinals 6-2.

The A’s got back in the win column on Wednesday evening, bouncing back from a series-opening loss by beating the St. Louis Cardinals 6-2 in convincing fashion in front of the Sacramento crowd.

LOS ANGELES — For the first time in 2026, Shohei Ohtani will not start at either designated hitter or pitcher for the Dodgers in their series finale against the San Francisco Giants on Thursday night at Dodger Stadium.

Despite L.A. taking Ty Simpson with their 13th overall pick in the latest NFL Draft, a player who may help the team one day as opposed […]
For the longest time, fans of the game wanted to hear from former athletes. After all, they played, so their opinions should matter. Then, you turn on the TV and see that these athletes, despite their experience, often say something equally as outlandish or off the wall as any other analyst. To say former San […]
