The Dodgers came back from a 3-2 deficit in the bottom of the ninth as Corey Seager’s solo homer forced extras and Charlie Culberson homered in the tenth for a walk-off win—one that claimed the division for L.A. and gave Vin Scully the chance to call one final walk-off in his last time behind the mi...

Rougned Odor Slaps Walk-Off Dinger, Stares Down Edwin Diaz
Rougned Odor spent the Rangers’ game against the Mariners tonight messing with Dae-ho Lee, hitting the ball over the field, and futzing around on the basepath. He capped it off with a walk-off home run, and because he’s Rougned Odor, he capped that off with a stare down and a little tiny baby bat fl...

The Pirates and Brewers played a wild one this evening in Pittsburgh.

Rougned Odor Smacks Walk-Off, Gets Smacked

Because Odor apparently magnetizes hands to...

Jonathan Papelbon, Jamoke, Blows It
The Washington Nationals were up 6-4 in Kansas City headed into the ninth. Tanner Roark gave them 7 1/3 solid innings, and everyone but Bryce Harper got a hit. They had a great chance to beat NBA center-sized pitcher Chris Young, but then Jonathan Papelbon, the maddest Jonathan in baseball, gave up ...

The Blue Jays Lost In The Saddest Way
Sometimes, your team really bones it and gives up a walk-off home run. Or maybe they lose after a new MLB rule bites them in the ass. Both of those scenarios suck, but neither is outright embarrassing. The Blue Jays’ 4-3 loss to the Orioles in extras tonight, however, ended in sad, humiliating fashi...

Korean Announcers Lose Their Shit Over Dae-Ho Lee's 10th-Inning Walk-Off Dinger
