The hot weather in Kansas City appeared to agree with Aaron Nola. The Phillies’ starter pitched his best start of the season, going seven innings while giving up three runs.

Martín Pérez has had some pretty rotten luck when it comebackers lately and now it appears that one was enough to take him out of a game.

Behind a three-run first inning, it seemed the Braves were going to carry their Saturday momentum right into Sunday afternoon’s home game against the New York Mets. Then they were held scoreless for the next seven innings. Facing a seven-run deficit after the Mets posted a five-run top of the ninth, the bats awakened but […]

Yesterday, Americans attended barbecues, tore around on jet skis, and partied under fireworks for the country’s 250th birthday.

Freedom, and […]
