There is always baseball happening — almost too much baseball for one person to follow themselves. Don't worry, we're here to help you by figuring out what you missed but shouldn't have. Here are all the best moments from last night in Major League Baseball: The Dodgers and Yankees met up on Friday for a three-game series, with it being Los Angeles’ first trip to Yankee Stadium since the 2024 […]

NEW YORK — Aaron Judge is convinced — adamant, even — that he will return to the Yankees lineup this year. "Definitely," the Yankees captain said on Friday in front of his locker when asked if he would be back before the season is over. "I don't see why I wouldn't." It’s one thing for Judge to expect a return. It’s another thing entirely for the doctors to give him […]

The All-Star break is over, and with it, the excuses. Teams have roughly two weeks before the Aug. 3 trade deadline to decide whether they're buying, selling or holding. Surprise contenders have to figure out if their first-half magic was real, bubble teams have to decide which direction to turn and teams in the cellar need to have honest conversations about the future of their franchise. The possibility of reigning […]

Before the season began, many expected reigning Cy Young Award winners Tarik Skubal and Paul Skenes and reigning MVPs Aaron Judge and Shohei Ohtani to defend their crowns as the top players in their respective leagues. A few months later, a lot has changed, and a path has opened for some new contenders. Tigers ace Skubal missed more than a month of action (but returned remarkably quickly) after undergoing an […]

Expanded playoffs make it harder to predict whether Tarik Skubal and other choice acquisitions will be dealt before the Aug, 3 trade deadline. Twenty-three of the 30 teams are within four games of a playoff position heading into the season's second half, which opens Thursday with the back-in-contention Philadelphia Phillies hosting the woeful New York Mets. "You’ve got a lot of really good teams that were on the bubble that […]

Discussions for major leaguers to play in the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics baseball tournament remain in the early stages, with players used to top hotels wanting to be assured of accommodations. Major League Baseball has envisioned an extended 11-day All-Star break. The last regular-season games before the break would be on July 9, followed by the All-Star Game on July 11, likely at San Francisco, and the Olympic tournament at […]

PHILADELPHIA — Cody Bellinger walked into the press conference room holding his glass bat MVP trophy, with his daughters circling his feet. "Come on girls!" he called to four-year-old Caiden and three-year-old Cy, both in matching pink shirts and sunglasses, pulling over chairs so they could join him at the podium. Caiden stayed put through all the questions; Cy lasted only a few minutes under the camera lights before retreating […]

The American League only has five teams with a winning record compared to the National League's nine at the break, but the AL's shoddy first half didn’t matter Tuesday night in Philadelphia. The NL lineup didn’t stand a chance against an overpowering AL pitching staff in the All-Star Game, as the American League won the competition for the 11th time in the past 13 seasons and recorded its first shutout […]

The MLB All-Star Game has featured some of the league's best players on the diamond in recent years, but it's not necessarily for the action anymore. The American League defeated the National League 4-0 at the 2026 MLB All-Star Game, which saw many players mic'd up and share many memorable jokes, stories and more over nine innings. Here are five of the best mic'd-up moments of the 2026 MLB All-Star […]
