Royals Win In 10 On Justin Maxwell's Walk-Off, Pimp-Hit Grand Slam
It wasn't a good day for the person doing the closed captioning on the Royals' TV broadcast. ...
Rays Win In 18, Set Stage For Wide-Open Wild Card Finish
I gave up on this game in the 16th. If only the Orioles were so sleepy, they could have been spared two further innings and grief. And, who knows, maybe if it ends in 16, Kelly Johnson here doesn't get drilled with DeJesus's helmet after a celebratory heave. But that's baseball: unpredictable. Somet...
Joe Nathan Goes All <i>Joe Nathan</i>
The Rays just came back to tie the Rangers at three in the 11th inning at the Trop thanks to this base-slap that just missed Joe Nathan's glove. Just one pitch after Freddy Guzmán stole second and one strike away from his 40th save, Nathan gave up the game-tying run to David DeJesus. We've seen thi...

Josh Donaldson Disappears Behind Tarp To Make Diving Catch
The Rangers' David Murphy wedged this foul pop down the third-base line between the tarp and the padded sidewall. Or right to where the A's Josh Donaldson could get to it....
Yu Darvish Is Just Toying With Batters Now
You might think this clip came straight out of a Gas-House Gorillas-Tea Totallers game, but it only looks like a cartoon. Yu Darvish so thoroughly confounded Trevor Plouffe with this lazy curveball that he began his swing on Thursday....
The Best And Worst Of Summer Movies: A Grierson & Leitch Report
Summer movie season is over. It's finally had its fill of us, leaving our mangled body twitching on the side of the road as it drives off with a rubbery squeal. Here at Grierson & Leitch, we're very much looking forward to fall and its crop of award-hungry prestige movies—we're speaking, of course, ...
Giant Moth Dive Bombs A.J. Pierzynski
First it was Matt Holliday. Then it was Alex Gordon. Now it's A.J. Pierzynski. Moths are not just positively phototactic. They're also drawn to baseball players. It's science....
Here's The Controversial Call That Ruined Yu Darvish's Perfect Game
Yu Darvish had retired the first 17 batters he faced (that's like a 1-2-3 inning against non-Astros teams!). He got what he thought was strike three against Jonathan Villar to end the sixth, but home plate ump Ron Kulpa didn't see it that way....
Adam Rosales Is An AL West Hot Potato
In the span of two weeks, Adam Rosales has gone from the A's to the Rangers to the A's and now back to the Rangers. It is clear that only death will bring Rosales peace from the waiver wire....
Matt Garza Went On A Misogynistic Rant Because Of A Squeeze Play
Matt Garza often has issues throwing to first base and the Athletics—who attempted four bunts yesterday, including Coco Crisp's game-opening single and Eric Sogard's sacrifice immediately after—had an obvious plan to try to get in Garza's head. Turns out, it worked. Also turns out, Matt Garza has is...
The Phillies Might Have To Trade Michael Young For A Bag Of Balls
The Phillies are going to trade Michael Young by tomorrow's deadline; they have to. They're going nowhere, they just called up their third baseman of the future and Young, a free agent to be, could bring a midlevel prospect in return. There's only one problem: according to a report, Young just slit ...

Madison Square Garden Has 10 Years To Get Out
The demolition of the gorgeous old Penn Station in 1963 to make way for the construction of Madison Square Garden remains one of the country's great civic tragedies. Now, New York is finally trying to rectify its mistakes: the city council has given MSG 10 years to vacate the premises. ...

A Pissed-Off Charl Schwartzel Smashes His Club In Frustration
After bogeying Nos. 10, 12, 13, and 14 today at Muirfield, Charl Schwartzel found himself in the rough at No. 15. He didn't quite get to the green from there, and his 6-iron paid the price. Stupid 6-iron. Schwartzel wound up with a double-bogey at 15....
