Tyrod Taylor Has Been Letting People Mispronounce His Name This Whole Time

Rougned Odor Executes Straight Steal Of Home On Run-Scoring Balk
Per the official scorer’s account of tonight’s Tigers-Rangers game, Rougned Odor did not steal home tonight.

Rougned Odor Fall Down Go Boom
The Rangers have just four hits and a single run against the hapless Blue Jays this afternoon, and an illustration of their offensive struggles can be seen in Rougned Odor’s sixth-inning at-bat—in which the Texas infielder swings so hard he falls down trying to get out of the batter’s box....

The Cleveland Indians, last seen ceding a 3-1 World Series lead to the Cubs, are back at it this evening and things are not going well thus far.

Northwestern Wins Undeservedly Thanks To Huge Vandy Boner<em></em><em></em>
After trailing Northwestern for much of the afternoon, Vanderbilt looked as if they were going to do the nation a favor by coming from behind to knock the Wildcats out of their first-ever tournament in the first round.

Carlos Beltran Put Eye Black On His Head To Make Fun Of Rougned Odor
Texas Rangers designated hitter Carlos Beltran showed up to the team’s Aug. 28 game with a new look, reminiscent of a different Carlos. As it turns out, Beltran didn’t grow some “hair” to fool anyone. He wanted to make a joke at the expense of teammate Rougned Odor....
Rougned Odor Slaps Walk-Off Dinger, Stares Down Edwin Diaz
Rougned Odor spent the Rangers’ game against the Mariners tonight messing with Dae-ho Lee, hitting the ball over the field, and futzing around on the basepath.

Jason Kipnis Messes With Rougned Odor, Delighting The Rangers Bench

Rougned Odor Smacks Walk-Off, Gets Smacked
Rougned Odor can’t even hit a walk-off without getting in a scrap. After he stroked a dong in the third tonight, Odor knocked a two-out double off the wall above Colby Rasmus in the bottom of the ninth to score Adrian Beltre and give the Rangers a 6-5 win. Because Odor apparently magnetizes hands to...
Vanderbilt Once Again Pulled Off The Rare Triple Steal
Auburn pitcher Justin Camp must have a notoriously slow windup or Ethan Paul must be an exceedingly brave baserunner, because during the seventh inning of this afternoon’s Auburn-Vanderbilt baseball game, Paul took off and stole home on Camp. Vanderbilt’s two other baserunners also managed to advanc...
