The Cubs Are Good At Karaoke Too
The Cubs are good at baseball. Real damn good. They lost a narrow one to the Pirates yesterday but they’re still 27-9. The team has an off day today, so naturally, they went and did some karaoke last night. ChiCitySports.com was on the scene as Dexter Fowler, John Lackey, Anthony Rizzo, Jon Lester, ...
Rougned Odor's Been A Shit For A Long Time
Would it surprise you to learn that Rangers second baseman Rougned Odor, the dude who landed a right hook on Jose Bautista’s jaw and created one of the most memorable GIFs in baseball history, isn’t new to this whole punching people thing?...
Blue Jays Call Rangers "Gutless" And "Cowardly" After Excellent Brawl
I believe with my whole heart that the seventh inning of last year’s ALDS Game 5—the non-interference throw back to the pitcher, the baby-soaking beer rain, Elvis Andrus’s meltdown, and ohmygod that bat flip—is the most entertaining inning of baseball ever played. That seven months later it is still...

Liberté Chan has served as a weekend meteorologist at KTLA for years, but her onscreen attire Saturday morning was apparently so scandalous she was ordered to wear a sweater on live television....
Watch Rougned Odor Punch José Bautista In Extreme Slow Motion
Rougned Odor slugged José Bautista in the face following the latter’s questionable slide into second and sparked a brawl talking heads will be discussing all week.

Blue Jays And Rangers Brawl, Completely Ignore Game [UPDATE: They Brawled Again]
Toronto and Texas brawled in the top of the eighth as punches were flying while the ball was still bouncing around the field. We’re waiting on a good video replay; for now, enjoy this feed from Fox Sports Southwest and KRLD....
Houston's George Springer, Lifelong Sox Fan, Just Hit A Grand Slam Over The Green Monster
George Springer grew up in Connecticut, played ball at UConn, and has been going to Red Sox games since he was 3, so naturally the 26-year-old Houston rightfielder has a soft spot for Fenway Park. Last year, two days before he would’ve made his Fenway debut, an Edinson Volquez fastball broke his wri...
Large Bayern Munich Supporter Subdued Before Invading Live Shot
Fox Sports was live in Munich to cover Bayern’s celebration after this morning’s Bundesliga season wrap-up matches, and reporter Rhiannon Jones got a scare as a very large home supporter approached the camera—only to be scooted along by a security guard half his size. Good times, Bavaria....
Will Wilcox Sinks Hole-In-One, Goes On Extended High-Five Spree
Will Wilcox nailed a hole-in-one on the par-3 17th hole at the Players Championship today. The former UAB golfer celebrated accordingly....

It’s Friday afternoon and it’s rained for 900 consecutive days. Let’s fight about ranking barbecue side dishes. Are you ready? Here we go:...
Max Scherzer's 20-K Game Was As Unusual As It Was Brilliant
There’s nothing ordinary about striking out 20 guys in a single game, and Max Scherzer doesn’t really need any help shining up the diamond he gave us last night, but this performance stands out as unusual even amongst its peers....
Holy Shit, Max Scherzer Struck Out 20 Batters
Max Scherzer tied the MLB record with 20 strikeouts against the Detroit Tigers tonight, throwing 96 strikes on 119 pitches in nine innings of work as the Nationals won 3-2. He had a chance to get 21, but James McCann grounded out to a sheepish Daniel Murphy. Scherzer struck out at least two Tigers i...
High School Relay Team Uses High Jump Pole Instead Of Baton, Wins
The 4 x 100 meter race is about pure, raw speed, but it also takes a good deal of coordination to time your handoffs right. This is much easier if you have a dang high jump bar to hand off instead of a tiny, near-weightless baton....
Todd Frazier Busted His Face Up Diving Into The Stands
Sometimes when you dive into the stands, you come up with the catch of the season, and sometimes, you get soda all over yourself and smash your face up....
White Sox Bullpen Catcher Snatches A Homer With His Bare Hand
I like bullpen catchers. They all look like jovial dads who would be happy to help you with your math homework before heading out to the backyard to have a catch. They never get any camera time, so it’s nice to see one shine when he gets the chance:...
Chinese Commentator Can't Help But Laugh At This Striker's Horrible Miss
I mean, Mao Biao of Tianjin Teda does basically save his own “shot” (if you can call him falling over himself and onto the ball a “shot”) from crossing the goal line here. Laughter really is about the only sensible response....
What Can You Get Out Of Using A Personal Trainer?
The image of a personal trainer is usually a chipper, sinewy person in expensive gym wear, ready to pump you up, catering to either serious athletes or folks with serious disposable income. This may be ... largely true, but even as a member of neither of those categories, it’s still be worth looking...
Hanley Ramirez Clobbered The Bejesus Out Of This Pitch
Sean Manaea is the best pitching prospect in the pipeline for the Oakland A’s, but when you’re a rookie, you’re gonna get knocked around a bit no matter your pedigree. For example: He put a pitch into the middle of the zone against Hanley Ramirez this evening in Boston, and the converted first basem...
Colin Cowherd's And Jason Whitlock's <i>All Takes Matter </i>Is Going To Be A Goddamn Hour Long
The world is already aware that Colin Cowherd and Jason Whitlock will team up for their new Fox Sports 1 show Speak For Yourself, which should be called (and which we are calling) All Takes Matter, but no one was prepared for it to be a full hour at 6 p.m....
<i>X-Men: Apocalypse</i>'s Biggest Disappointment Is The Villainous Prune
As we’ve noted before, the pleasure of a superhero blockbuster lies in watching familiar, inevitable tropes refashioned in mildly refreshing ways. The people making these films are tasked not with outright originality but with clever recombination. How do we make the good guys defeat the bad guys—be...
