The Yankees captain made history by following with a third consecutive homer, and there would

LOS ANGELES -- Shohei Ohtani resumed his buildup on the mound, throwing his first bullpen session since Feb. 25 ahead of Saturday's series finale against the Tigers.

LOS ANGELES -- One of the biggest questions the Dodgers had heading into this year was what they would get out of Roki Sasaki in his first Major League season. After two regular-season starts, the team still has a lot to learn about the 23-year-old right-hander from Japan. Sasaki didn't

Homecomings can be quite emotional. The memories made in a place and the relationships built there tend to combine to get everyone in their feels during return visits. This is true even in baseball. When stars move on, whether through a trade or free agency, that first reunion at the

ARLINGTON -- The connection Kristian Campbell made for his first Major League homer on Saturday night at Globe Life Field was obvious both due to the loud crack of the bat and how joyous MLB Pipeline’s No. 7 prospect became as he rounded the bases. At 22 years old, less

TAMPA -- The best way to measure the effectiveness of the Rockies’ defense in Saturday's 2-1 win over the Rays at George M. Steinbrenner Field is to hold starting pitcher Antonio Senzatela's stats up against Rockies and MLB history. Senzatela yielded nine hits and had no strikeouts in 4 1/3

You know you’re getting older, becoming a real grown-up, when you realize you’re the same age as Major League Baseball players. Then it dawns on you that players your age are considered “grizzled veterans.” And then, eventually, there’s no one your age who is still active in MLB. Then you

TORONTO -- In the bullpen before his Blue Jays debut, Max Scherzer felt that something wasn’t right. He gave manager John Schneider a heads-up before the game, asking that they work with him as he tried to pitch through this, but after three innings and 45 pitches, Scherzer’s debut came

PHOENIX -- Dansby Swanson dove and got his glove on Garrett Hampson in a mad scramble around third base, applying the final exclamation point on a wild win for the Cubs at Chase Field on Saturday night. The shortstop popped to his feet -- jersey caked in dirt -- pumping

WASHINGTON -- Jesús Luzardo slapped his left hand into his glove and shouted to himself as he left the mound after the fifth inning on Saturday at Nationals Park. He hit his glove a few more times before looking skyward. He was pumped.

TORONTO -- The Orioles sure can slug. And through three games, they’re slugging. Baltimore continued its homer-filled start to the 2025 season with three more long balls in a 9-5 win over Toronto on Saturday evening at Rogers Centre. Jordan Westburg went deep twice for his first big league multi-homer

KANSAS CITY -- The Guardians are hopeful they avoided a worst-case scenario after All-Star third baseman José Ramírez suffered a right wrist sprain in Saturday’s 4-3 loss to the Royals at Kauffman Stadium.

NEW YORK – Three pitches, three home runs. That had never happened to any pitcher to begin any game in AL/NL history. And it was only the start of a Brewers debut that Nestor Cortes would just as soon forget.

If Spencer Strider’s performance in his third rehab start had to be ranked, it would probably land somewhere between the utter dominance of his Grapefruit League debut and the grit of his second outing. Nonetheless, Strider took one more step toward his big league return. Strider, who started the season

MIAMI -- Before Paul Skenes was the pitching phenom of his generation, he was a cadet at the Air Force Academy. The plan was to serve his country, but once it became clear that he had a chance to do something incredible on the baseball diamond, Skenes knew he had

MIAMI -- Jeff Conine authored one of the most memorable defensive moments in Marlins history in Game 4 of the 2003 National League Division Series. Twenty-two years later, his son Griffin Conine added to franchise lore in Miami’s 5-4 12-inning walk-off victory over Pittsburgh on Saturday at loanDepot park.

PHOENIX -- The ball left Corbin Carroll’s bat at just 46 mph -- the high fastball from Ryan Pressly having gotten in on his hands -- and the ball floated over the mound and struck the grass just shy of the dirt at shortstop. As soon as the ball hit

SAN DIEGO -- Padres star third baseman Manny Machado exited Saturday’s 1-0 victory over the Braves with right calf tightness, but he seems to have avoided any sort of prolonged absence and could return to action for Sunday’s series finale at Petco Park. After he swung and missed at a

Which player impressed you most on Opening Day? You could say Shohei Ohtani or Paul Skenes or even 51-year-old Ichiro Suzuki. But how about Kameron Misner? The 27-year-old outfielder didn't expect to make the Rays' Opening Day roster, but a late injury in camp created a spot for him. So,
