The Red Sox needed 12 games to do it, but Boston secured its first series victory of the season.

Yankees Birthday of the Day: Catfish Hunter

Today’s edition of our Yankees birthday series brings us to another member of the Baseball Hall of Fame. Owner of one of the most iconic nicknames in the game’s history, Jim Hunter may have only played a third of his career in pinstripes, but in the Bronx, and within the game in general, the right-hander […]

Kodai Senga’s first two starts have been incredibly encouraging

In his first thirteen starts in 2025, Kodai Senga led all qualified starting pitchers in baseball with a 1.47 ERA. But even before he suffered a hamstring injury in mid-June that wound up derailing his season, it was reasonable to wonder whether or not his early-season performance was sustainable. Coming off a 2024 season that […]

Giants shut out Phillies again to take series

Things were very different in 2013. Barry Zito was completing a wildly successful eight-year contract with the San Francisco Giants. America was falling in love with a prehistoric family called The Croods and an up-and-coming rapper from the Pacific Northwest named Macklemore. Anthony Weiner was running for mayor and Toronto mayor Rob Ford (R.I.P.) was […]

Game Thread: Orioles (5-6) at White Sox (4-7)

The Chicago White Sox are once again looking to avoid yet another series loss. They’ll try to salvage the finale against the Baltimore Orioles this afternoon after dropping the first two games of the set.

Mariners Game #12 Preview and Discussion: SEA at TEX, 4/8/26

Today, the Mariners will attempt to avoid a sweep in this year’s first iteration of breakfast baseball. Yes, anything in the morning is considered “breakfast baseball”. No, I will not comment on whether I am actually eating breakfast at 11:35 in the morning. Coming off of four straight one-run losses, they’ll ask Bryan Woo to […]

How are you feeling about the Red Sox bullpen?

Good morning! The Red Sox won a baseball game last night, which is something we haven’t gotten to say much this year. It was a close one, and another game where the bullpen played a key role. Holding onto leads has been tough for the Sox so far. Like, real tough: But Zack Kelly of […]

Rays 6, Cubs 4: Not enough hitting or relief pitching

Remember last year, when the Cubs bats were on fire for most of the first half? Yeah, me too. Remember last year, when the Cubs bullpen was solid for most of the year? Yeah, me too. Neither of those things is going well for the Cubs so far in 2026, and those were the primary […]
