TORONTO -- Seemingly every time Dodgers superstar Shohei Ohtani steps inside the batter’s box, the two-time unanimous American League Most Valuable Player does something that impresses everyone in attendance.

NEW YORK -- The Mets donned their City Connect uniforms for the first time on Saturday, and first baseman Pete Alonso looked sweet wearing the gray jersey. The uniform honors everything about New York that makes it the World’s City -- the trains that connect the fans, the bridges that

BOSTON -- With Triston Casas out for weeks if not months with torn cartilage in his left rib cage, the Red Sox acted by acquiring first baseman Garrett Cooper in a trade with the Cubs for cash considerations on Saturday. In fact, to make room for Cooper on the roster,

The great Hank Aaron passed away in 2021, but his legacy in the sports world persists -- even on the football field. Aaron’s great-nephew, Kimani Vidal, was selected in the sixth round (No. 181 overall pick) of the 2024 NFL Draft by the Los Angeles Chargers on Saturday.

BOSTON -- Patience. That is what the Red Sox have been preaching for people to exercise when it comes to Ceddanne Rafaela’s bat. And the rookie, known for his top-notch defense in center field and at shortstop, proved Saturday that his offense could be worth waiting for. It was there

Mason Miller, pitching in one of the most tense roles in baseball, feels free -- and the radar gun is showing it. The A's sophomore right-hander, moved to the bullpen in an effort to preserve his health, is suddenly the most electric closer in baseball, blowing MLB's best hitters away

There’s absolutely no shortage of legendary home runs in baseball history, whether we’re talking about Babe Ruth’s “called shot” in 1932, Bobby Thomson’s “Shot Heard ‘Round the World” in 1951, Carlton Fisk’s foul-pole prayer in 1975 or thousands of others along the way.

ARLINGTON -- After a promising but inconsistent first month of the season, Reds starter Hunter Greene seemed to have distilled his approach down to the absolute essentials on Saturday.

NEW YORK -- A Cardinals offense starting to come out of its early-season struggles scored four runs in the first inning and ace right-hander Sonny Gray withstood a shaky fifth inning as St. Louis beat the Mets, 7-4, at Citi Field on Saturday afternoon. The Cardinals came into the contest

MEXICO CITY -- The Rockies are the designated home team for the Mexico City Series games against the Astros on Saturday and Sunday. But as expected, Estadio Alfredo Harp Helú was overwhelmingly Astros blue. Well, Charlie Blackmon and the injured Kris Bryant showed up on the back of a couple

DETROIT -- On a Saturday night when the Tigers honored Dan Dickerson for his 25th season calling Tigers games, they gave their longtime radio and occasional television voice something to yell about.

MIAMI -- There’s arguably nothing more iconic in baseball than a good bat flip after a home run. But perhaps even better is the “stop and stare” -- when a hitter pauses before taking a single step toward first base and admires a no-doubter. Jesse Winker did the latter on

CHICAGO -- Josh Lowe won’t be back in the Rays’ lineup this weekend, after all. Lowe joined the Rays at Guaranteed Rate Field on Friday afternoon after completing a six-game Minor League rehab assignment with Triple-A Durham. He was poised to make his season debut on Saturday night against the

BALTIMORE -- It’s been only 11 days since Kyle Bradish made his first rehab start in his recovery from a right UCL sprain.
