Shohei Ohtani Got Yanked After Just Two Innings
Shohei Ohtani had his first truly bad game of his young MLB career tonight, as the Japanese phenom only pitched two rocky innings against the Red Sox before he got pulled by his manager. Mookie Betts set the tone for the outing, hitting a 3-2 pitch into left-center field for a lead-off homer, and Oh...
ROH Wrestling's Biggest Show Ever Is In The Books. So Now What?
Numerous stories played out in parallel during WrestleMania weekend in New Orleans, and the fact that there was more going on than any one person could process was, as always, a big part of the fun.

Shohei Ohtani, Like All Of Us, Wants The Angels To Play Him More
Shohei Ohtani is the best thing to happen in this MLB season so far. Not only is the dual pitching/hitting threat trying out a regular routine that’s essentially never been seen by any living baseball fan, he’s also succeeding at it. In an obviously small sample size, Ohtani is hitting .364 and thro...
Should The Giants Trade Odell Beckham?<em></em>
Odell Beckham is the only reason you should ever watch a New York Giants game, but he also happens to be in the final year of his contract and coming off a busted ankle.

Fragile Rookie Shohei Ohtani Unable To Overcome Dominance Of Legendary Bartolo Colon
He didn’t start the game, but anyone who stuck with tonight’s Angels-Rangers blowout was treated with a glimpse of baseball’s most fascinating, awe-inspiring marvel.

Shohei Ohtani Is Very Clearly Not From This Planet
I feel like if you’re even remotely a sports fan, you must tune in to watch Shohei Ohtani. What he is doing so far this season is genuinely insane. Listen to me! He leads the Angels in home runs, batting average, and OPS, and is second in runs batted in, and today he took a perfect game into the sev...
Shohei Ohtani's Third Dinger Was A Mighty Bomb
The Angels opened a home series against the Athletics Friday night, in a game in which 14 total pitchers were used, and neither starter made it past the fourth inning.

John Sterling Is Very Happy That His Goofy Call Blighted Giancarlo Stanton's Dinger
John Sterling’s call for Giancarlo Stanton’s first dinger as a Yankee was goofy and dumb. The call—Giancarlo, non si può stoparlo—was in Italian, which is random as hell, considering that Stanton is not Italian, and neither is Sterling, and we do not live in Italy, and Sterling was not broadcasting ...

The OHL’s Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds took a 2-0 series lead on Saginaw yesterday, earning a win in both a stylish and maybe kind of over-the-top fashion. With a 6-0 lead in the third period, the Greyhounds were ... let’s say, unrestrained as they played out the final minutes....
Johnny Manziel Offers Refreshingly Lucid Defense Of Colin Kaepernick
However you happen to feel about Colin Kaepernick, it is for sure interesting to observe that in the same month in which Johnny Manziel got a workout in front of a hearty handful of NFL scouts, Kaepernick was also out throwing the old pigskin, in front of roughly no one. This dynamic, and its associ...
