Rooting for maximum chaos in the AL wild-card race
With just six days left in the MLB regular season, the AL wild card race is tighter than Batman’s tights. Five teams, all within four-and-a-half games.

Another Oakland A’s window is closing without much to show for it

John Sterling is 83 years old and has been broadcasting for such a long time that he once was the radio voice of the Baltimore Bullets, the WHA’s New York Raiders, and the New York Stars of the WFL. He’s been calling Yankees games for so long, he was behind the microphone for their last losing seaso...
MLB record-holder ...Robbie Ray?
An MLB record was broken last night. Toronto Blue Jays’ southpaw Robbie Ray through a seven-inning gem last night (4 H, 1 BB, 2 ER, 10 K) en route to a victory over the Baltimore Orioles.

Down the stretch they come: Here’s what to watch out for as the MLB season hits final run
We have less than a month and a half before the MLB postseason starts on October 5. We know most of the teams that will be involved.
