Brett Gardner Tumbles Butt First Into The Stands To Catch A Foul Ball
The Yankees wrap up a three-game series in Toronto tonight, and they got their second out of the night with a fair bit of pizazz, as Brett Gardner went ass-over-teakettle to make this grab here....
Francisco Lindor Won't Let The Rays' Catwalks Get Him Down
The Tampa Bay Rays still have dumb catwalks at the top of their dumb stadium, and they still occasionally wreak havoc on high fly balls. During last night’s game against the Indians, one catwalk prevented shortstop Francisco Lindor from catching a foul ball with two outs in the ninth inning. ...
Report: Red Sox Happy To Pretend Pablo Sandoval's Injury Isn't Fake
Officially, Pablo Sandoval is on the 15-day disabled list with a strained left shoulder. Unofficially, and probably more accurately: Pablo Sandoval doesn’t want to sit on the Red Sox bench, and the Red Sox don’t want him around. These next four years are going to be great!...
The Cardinals Lost Their Fourth Game
The St. Louis Cardinals’ four-game winning streak ended Wednesday as they lost to the Milwaukee Brewers, 6-4....
Noble Strongman Trevor Story Undone By His Own Dumb Stadium
The Colorado Rockies will try anything to not suck. They paid Mike Hampton something like a billion dollars, stuck their baseballs in a dang humidor, and even appealed to Jesus Christ. This year, they decided to try something new, and made the right-field fence about twice as high as it used to be. ...
Korean Announcers Lose Their Shit Over Dae-Ho Lee's 10th-Inning Walk-Off Dinger
The Mariners stopped their five-game skid in the most emphatic way possible: by walking off the winners after a big ole’ dinger in the tenth inning against a division rival. You can watch the official MLB version of Dae-Ho Lee’s home run against the Rangers if you want, but we recommend these Korean...
Dee Gordon Turned A 16-Pitch At-Bat Into The Game-Winning Run
Marlins second baseman Dee Gordon was an absolute pest to Mets reliever Jim Henderson in Tuesday’s game. Gordon milked his eighth-inning at-bat for 16 pitches before he lifted a single into shallow left field....

Hector Olivera Involved In Domestic Dispute At Virginia Hotel [Updated]
Atlanta Braves outfielder Hector Olivera was arrested this morning in connection with a domestic dispute at a hotel in Arlington, Va. WJLA reported the news first....
The Atlanta Braves Are Very Bad, And Fredi Gonzalez Isn't Helping
It’s not easy managing a team as bereft of talent as the Atlanta Braves, so my first impulse is to feel bad for Fredi Gonzalez, who has steered his garbage team to an 0-7 start. But the Braves have been in some very winnable games, and Gonzalez hasn’t been doing much but tripping over his own feet i...
May Noah Syndergaard Never Stop Striking Everybody Out
The Mets lost tonight despite a historically good start from Noah Syndergaard because they’re the Mets and ambitious losses are part of their DNA. They knocked around Jose Fernandez in the first inning, then loaded up the bases in the second only to leave empty-handed. After that, Fernandez straight...
Both Of J.J. Hardy's Dingers Were Teeny-Tiny Baby Dingers
The Orioles are knocking the stuffing out of the ball this year, and they remain the only undefeated team in Major League Baseball after today’s 9-5 comeback win over the Red Sox. Today’s hero was shortstop J.J. Hardy, who knocked in five runs and whacked two dingers....
Yasiel Puig's Got Moves On The Basepath
The Dodgers opened up Dodger Stadium for the season with a 4-2 loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks and their weird new road uniforms (Rob Lowe is not a fan). L.A. had a slim lead for most of the game but Arizona came back at the end and scored all their runs after Kenta Maeda sat down. Yasiel Puig did,...
Mike Trout Can Dunk And Shoot
A few Angels players went to the Golden State Warriors’ practice today, and the world learned that Mike Trout can do more than just mash taters (he’s still really, really good at that, by the way). Trout can also ball a little bit....
Braves' Mallex Smith Gets Caught Stealing Second, Bloodies His Face
Braves outfielder Mallex Smith, who has an excellent first name, made his MLB debut in Monday’s game against the Nationals, and was bloody by the fourth inning....
Billy Hamilton's Home Run Trot Was MLB's Fastest
Reds outfielder Billy Hamilton is blindingly fast, and seemingly the only way to keep him from using his speed is to keep him off the bases. One way to do that, I guess, is to serve up a home run. But last night not even that could cool down the afterburners....
Bryce Harper Is Hungry For Gloves, Bases
Mmmm. Mmmmm. Love the taste of my glove. MMMM....
This Tigers Fan Caught Five Foul Balls Today
The Tigers lost today at home to the Pirates, thanks to Justin Verlander giving up seven runs. Tigers fans didn’t have a whole lot to cheer for today, save for a pair of dingers and this guy, Bill Dugan, who caught five foul balls. He even made an off-the-wall catch in the second inning....
A Very Rude Blue Jays Fan Found Pablo Sandoval A New Belt
Big-bellied Pablo Sandoval had a bit of a mishap with his belt during Saturday’s game against the Blue Jays. It happened during his second at-bat of the season, and it’s honestly starting to feel like some higher power is ordering Sandoval’s 2016 campaign to be a never-ending fat joke. For example:...
Braves' Daniel Winkler Fractures His Elbow While Throwing A Pitch
Atlanta Braves reliever Daniel Winkler fractured his elbow during Sunday’s game against the Cardinals. The video doesn’t show any graphic detail. All you see is a man who knows something is definitely wrong with his arm....
