Chase Utley Turns Very Bad Play Into Very Good One
The baseball season is long and grueling and Chase Utley is 37 years old, so you can’t blame him for booting a routine ground ball here and there. The good thing about being 37 years old, though, is that it makes you crafty as hell....
Asdrubal Cabrera Flips The Everloving Shit Out Of His Bat After Huge Walk-Off Dinger

Mario Balotelli Scores Two More Goals, Remains On Fire
Mario Balotelli has always been kind of a headcase. Of late, his nuttiness has unfortunately overshadowed his undeniable abilities.

The AL wild card-leading Blue Jays got shut down by King Felix Hernandez this afternoon, managing just pair of hits over seven innings. Fear not. Jose Bautista has a flair for situations like these.

David Ortiz Gets Taunted By Fan, Homers, Taunts Back
David Ortiz is the closest thing this era of baseball has to a real-life folk hero. Not only is he a hobbled, 40-year-old man who somehow leads all of baseball in OPS, he’s a dude who can still dunk on mouthy fans....
Remember When This Crappy Hitter Became A Bat-Flipping God?
Do you remember Tom Lawless’s three-run homer in Game 4 of the 1987 World Series? If you’re a young-ish idiot like me, there’s a decent chance you have no memory of that game and have never even heard of Tom Lawless. Let’s change that....
Mookie Betts Is So Damn Mean To The Orioles
Mookie Betts—currently hitting .314/.356/.541 with 31 home runs, 24 steals, and 40 doubles—may very well end up being the American League MVP. If he wins the award, he should thank the Baltimore Orioles during his acceptance speech....

Blind Brazilian Soccer Man Scores A Couple Bangers In The Paralympics

Just Give Mike Trout A Gold Glove Already<em></em>

Adrian Beltre Is Still Slapping Dingers From One Knee
Adrian Beltre is one of the most entertaining baseball players any of us will ever have the pleasure of watching. He’s done many great things on the field that I will remember fondly, but falling to one knee as he hits the goddamn hell out of a baseball will certainly go down as his signature move. ...
Here's Barcelona, Literally Walking The Ball Into The Net
Great goals come in all shapes and sizes.

Soccer Man Gets Extremely Hyped About This Dope Thing He Just Did
