Giant Moth Dive Bombs A.J. Pierzynski
First it was Matt Holliday. Then it was Alex Gordon. Now it's A.J. Pierzynski. Moths are not just positively phototactic. They're also drawn to baseball players. It's science....
Here's The Controversial Call That Ruined Yu Darvish's Perfect Game
Yu Darvish had retired the first 17 batters he faced (that's like a 1-2-3 inning against non-Astros teams!). He got what he thought was strike three against Jonathan Villar to end the sixth, but home plate ump Ron Kulpa didn't see it that way....

Matt Garza Went On A Misogynistic Rant Because Of A Squeeze Play
Matt Garza often has issues throwing to first base and the Athletics—who attempted four bunts yesterday, including Coco Crisp's game-opening single and Eric Sogard's sacrifice immediately after—had an obvious plan to try to get in Garza's head. Turns out, it worked. Also turns out, Matt Garza has is...
The Phillies Might Have To Trade Michael Young For A Bag Of Balls
The Phillies are going to trade Michael Young by tomorrow's deadline; they have to. They're going nowhere, they just called up their third baseman of the future and Young, a free agent to be, could bring a midlevel prospect in return.

Elvis Andrus Is Still Fucking With Adrian Beltre
Elvis Andrus just can’t help himself. We’ve watched him spend a good part of the last few seasons messing with teammate Adrian Beltre on and off the field, but somehow his routine never gets old. Andrus’s latest bit of shenanigans took place during last night’s Rangers-Orioles game. ...
Manny Ramirez Is Comin’ Back, Everyone
Manny Ramirez, the guy from all those cool Taiwanese home-run videos (he also once played major-league baseball), has signed a minor-league deal with the Texas Rangers. He will report to Triple-A Round Rock. He is 41 years old; he made his big-league debut nearly 20 years ago; he hasn't appeared in ...
The Toronto Blue Jays Are Out Of The AL East Basement, Barely
The Blue Jays were so far south of their preseason projections that even after a 10-game winning streak they're still the most disappointing team in baseball this season. But! After a wild 11-day charge, they've gone from 12 games back in the AL East to 6.5 back. They're now above .500 for the first...
David Ortiz Hit A Walk-Off Home Run That's Famous As Fuck

This Gallery Of Adrian Beltre GIFs Will Make Your Day
GIF maestro Drew Sheppard went and did us all a huge favor by creating a gallery of Texas Rangers-era Adrian Beltre GIFs. The gallery is full of all the things that make Beltre so damn GIFable: From-the-knees homers, slick defensive plays, and plenty of Beltre's patented don't-touch-my-head freakou...
This Might Be The Worst Double Play Call You'll See
This is not a double play. It would've been, probably, if Texas Rangers first baseman Mitch Moreland caught the ball to end the play. But he didn't catch the ball. Someone else caught the ball....
