It’s become an annual tradition in the Pacific Northwest: Julio Rodríguez scuffles at the plate early on, then roars to life once the second half rolls around. Without exception, Seattle's center fielder has been a significantly better hitter after the All-Star break in every year of his career.

Kyle Schwarber isn't just having a career year at 32 years old, he's got the best hard-hit percentage in MLB, a leaderboard Aaron Judge has topped every full season since 2017.

Pitcher Sam Landry -- the first overall pick in the AUSL draft -- topped the list in online and in-venue jersey sales since the league's June 7 Opening Day.

The 2026 MLB schedule is out, beginning with Yankees-Giants on March 25 ahead of a 14-game Opening Day on March 26. Where will you go to see your favorite team play?
