Why Baseball Needs Troy Tulowitzki
On Monday night, the Colorado Rockies lost to the Blue Jays. Despite getting a strong effort from starter Jorge De La Rosa, the Rockies just couldn't muster any offense—they went 0-for-8 with runners in scoring position—and eventually fell 2-0. Tuesday, they scored three runs and lost. Wednesday, tw...

Puerto Rican League Game Delayed When Players' Families Start Fighting
We are actually big fans of Baloncesto Superior Nacional, the Puerto Rican professional basketball league that's become somewhat of a summer league stop-over for sub-NBA pro ballers.

MLB Umpires Manage To Blow Two Calls On The Same Play
Our old pals Tony Randazzo and Jordan Baker should have another set of companions in internet ignominy today: third-base ump Cory Blaser and first-base ump Ed Hickox both blew calls in the 12th inning of Padres-Rockes last night. And each of those blown calls came on the play where the Padres scored...

Sad Dortmund Greeted By Peppy Flash Mob After Champions League Loss

Ángel Pagán's Walk-Off Inside-The-Park Home Run Was Just Foolish
So this is what the San Francisco Giants do. Sort of. They lead the majors with seven walk-off home runs already this year, so we guess that they found a way to win at home to the Rockies even when they were down 5-4 in the 10th inning shouldn't be too much of a surprise. This, though, wasn't just a...
