Howie Kendrick Is Probably Still Looking For A Jeurys Familia Slider To Swing At
Sports tactics are easier to judge after the fact, of course, and I am not a big-league lifer, so take this with a grain of salt. Still, I can’t help but imagine that in years to come, when members of the 2015 Los Angeles Dodgers reflect on this season, they will shake their heads sadly, look into t...

Kyle Schwarber Was Once A High School Show Choir Stud
Cubs rookie Kyle Schwarber is now best known as the guy who mashed a tater onto the top of the Wrigley Field video board, but socking prodigious dingers isn’t his only skill. Back when Schwarber was a student at Middletown High in Ohio, he was a key member of the school’s award-winning show choir....

The Mets Celebrated With A Beer Slip 'N Slide
The Mets’ victory celebrations had everything from smoochin’ to sprayin’, but the cherry on top was a beer slip ‘n slide in the locker room. Which meant, in practical terms, dumping a bunch of beer on the floor and sliding through it....

Ecstatic Mets Fan Gives Terry Collins A Big Ol' Smooch
You’re a middle-aged Mets fan who just watched his team advance to the NLCS, and Mets manager Terry Collins is coming your way. You’re probably pretty drunk. Do you play it cool? Of course not....

Daniel Murphy Doesn't Want To Stop Being A Met Just Yet
Daniel Murphy’s Mets days are probably numbered, but he made sure last night that there will be at least a few more. Murphy pretty much was New York’s offense in their Game 5 win over the Dodgers, and backed by another excellent pitching performance from Jacob DeGrom, the Mets are through to the NLC...

Enjoy These Fan-Shot Videos Of Jose Bautista's Home Run
Fan-shot videos of awesome sports moments are always a good time, particularly the morning after the game, when all you want to do is ignore work and relive what you witnessed as many times as possible. With that in mind, here are bunch of videos of Jose Bautista’s game-winning homer, shot by Blue J...

I Still Can't Believe The Rangers Nearly Won On <i>That </i>Play
I have three thoughts on Russell Martin’s throwing error in the top of the seventh, a baseball play that I’d never before seen in my life....

They Found The Blue Jays Fan Who Allegedly Threw Beer On A Baby
Blue Jays fans’ brief but furious seventh-inning meltdown reached a low point when someone from the upper deck tossed a beer into the general vicinity of a baby. Toronto police have identified the alleged beer-thrower, and he will be brought to justice....

Well, That Was The Worst Game Of Elvis Andrus's Life
So much happened in that seventh inning—an inning that took 53 minutes, and even without the glow of morning-after hyperbole, must go down as one of the weirdest, wildest, and most exciting single innings ever played—that its component parts (save The Bat Flip Heard ‘Round The World) may eventually ...

Sports Baby Goes Down
Jonny Gomes is a good daddy, and he celebrated tonight’s victory over the Astros by swinging one of his daughters around the pitcher’s mound. It looks like fun! Unfortunately, he didn’t see Jason Vargas’s kid running towards them and, uh, you’ll totally believe what happens next: ...

Let's Relive The Time Sean Casey Got Thrown Out At First From Left Field
For no particular reason, former ballplayer Sean Casey went on the Dan Patrick Show today and talked about the time he got thrown out at first on a ball he hit to left field. We don’t really need a reason to relive this play, though, because it was a truly great moment in baseball history, and Casey...

The Cubs Will Leave Kyle Schwarber's Home Run Ball On Top Of The Video Board
When Kyle Schwarber crushed his mammoth home run last night, nobody was really sure where it landed, until a picture of a baseball sitting atop the giant video board in right field started making the rounds....

May The Cubs Never Stop Mashing These Dingers
This is a screenshot of a Cubs fan losing his mind right after Kyle Schwarber hit a ball so goddamn hard that it exited our atmosphere and now lies sprinkled amongst the stars like cosmic dust. Schwarber’s climactic tater was the Cubs’ third of the game, which when combined with the six-homer assaul...

EAT SHIT, LEITCH!
This is Will Leitch, the founder of Deadspin and world’s most annoying Cardinals fan. We love Leitch, but we also like trolling him at every possible opportunity by telling him that he is human garbage and his favorite team is a band of wingnut Puritan shitbags who hack into laptops and pepper spray...

This Child With A Chase "Butt-Ley" Sign Is A Good Mets Fan
We like to bust on the Mets and their fans quite a bit around here, but even we can’t deny the brilliance of this small Mets fan:...
