A tough 11-9 Dodgers loss to the Marlins was a story of the most disappointing pitchers from a first-place team doing as much damage as possible to a last-place team. Miami pitched around Bobby Miller and Michael Grove to earn just its 29th home win of the season. Regardless of the outcome of the game […]
Unfortunately, the Cubs have lost their chances of making the postseason. Although they are still mathematically in the running – their elimination number is 4 – it’s basically a case of “wait until next year” for our favorite team. So let’s take a look at the postseason races that are still undecided. With the Cubs’ […]
The Mariners’ last-minute attempt to sneak into the playoffs took a positive turn over the weekend. Their series win over the Rangers, the Twins’ loss to the Reds and yesterday’s loss to the Guardians mean the M’s are just two games back in the wild card race and four games back in the AL West. […]
Well, it was certainly fun beating the Texas Rangers for three games, but this week is about to get a lot more exciting with a series against the Yankees that ends the Mariners’ long homestand. After that, they’ll go on an Oops! tour of all the Texas teams, then come back for a quick three-game […]
While the Tigers were watching the score between the Twins and Guardians, they also had to work hard to get into the postseason, and this wild game was definitely proof that they wanted to do that. Even when it looked like the Royals might pull off a walkover victory early on, the Tigers showed that […]
Last year, the Cubs played the Athletics in Oakland in April when the A’s were on their way to a 12-50 start. The Cubs won the series, defeating the A’s 16-3. Oakland lost 112 games. I’m here to tell you that the A’s are better this year. Much better. In May/June as a whole they […]
The season started off inauspiciously for the Cincinnati Bengals, as they lost their home and 2024 season opener to the New England Patriots. A series of self-inflicted errors led to them losing a winnable game, and now they must bounce back quickly against the vaunted Kansas City Chiefs. Patrick Mahomes and Co. have a mini-bye […]
It was close for three quarters, but the Kentucky Wildcats eventually ran out of steam in their narrow 13-12 loss to the Georgia Bulldogs, dropping them to 1-2 on the season and 0-2 in SEC play. Kentucky had the lead in the fourth quarter, but Georgia found the end zone in the opening minutes of […]
Garrett Crochet managed to get through four innings with one run before exiting, almost like a true major league pitcher who has earned the right to demand things like contract extensions and use the postseason at the trade deadline. But even that one run isn’t enough to walk away with a win when your hitters […]
The San Francisco Giants could win the season series against the San Diego Padres this weekend. If you had taken that sentence back to March, you’d be feeling pretty good about the Giants’ chances of making the postseason in 2024. Oh. Still, that’s how far apart the Giants and Padres are now in terms of […]
