WEST SACRAMENTO -- After two lifeless offensive innings against the Athletics on Sunday at Sutter Health Park, Aaron Judge didn’t like what he was seeing. The Yankees had followed Saturday’s loss to the A’s with two hitless frames against lefty starter Jacob Lopez, and a first-inning error led to three

HOUSTON -- How would budding Brewers ace Jacob Misiorowski characterize his dazzling month of May? “It was pretty good,” he said.

We enter June -- a month with plenty on the line -- with a clear top five, the five teams with the five best records who keep playing musical chairs in the top five spots. None of these five teams will play each other until the Dodgers-Rays series in a

ST. PETERSBURG -- The buffet beyond the left-field wall was spared thanks to Jose Siri in the Angels’ 5-2 loss against the Rays at Tropicana Field. The Angels turned to Mitch Farris in the bottom of the third after starter Jack Kochanowicz issued three walks and two singles in the

CINCINNATI – It didn’t take long for Ronald Acuña Jr. to continue his power ball explosion of the last week. One pitch, to be specific.

We're two months into the season, giving us a large enough sample to gauge where teams and individual players are at. While many players are off to hot starts in 2026, some teams are still looking for specific players to get going and help push their respective clubs to the

LOS ANGELES -- In the first two games of the weekend series against the Phillies, manager Dave Roberts did not push his starting pitchers to the limit. But the Dodgers' skipper knew he could rely on his ace, Yoshinobu Yamamoto, to empty the tank on Sunday afternoon.

BALTIMORE -- Jesús Sánchez’s manager likens the jovial outfielder to “The Most Interesting Man in the World” of the decades-old beer ad campaign. But even Sánchez isn’t so eccentric that he actually intended to play catch with spectators during a mound visit amid Toronto’s 9-5 loss to the Orioles on

CHICAGO -- The White Sox completed the month of May with an 18-10 record, while finishing tied with Cleveland in the loss column and one game back of first place in the American League Central. Anyone who had that occurrence on their bingo card back in February probably should also

There's just something about turning the page to a summer month that increases the collective sense of urgency across baseball. June baseball isn't necessarily more important than May baseball, but it does feel more consequential -- this is the baseball that could effectively make buyers and sellers out of most

NEW YORK -- Three games cannot make up for the 56 that came before them. It would be a significant stretch, heading into June, to call the Mets a good offensive team. But when Juan Soto’s grand slam soared over the right-center-field fence at Citi Field in the sixth inning

CINCINNATI – Elly De La Cruz has been durable and played through injuries since debuting for the Reds in 2023. So when De La Cruz pulled up running to first base on a hit to the wall, it was clear something was wrong.

ST. PETERSBURG -- After a rough week, at least by the standard they’ve set this season, the Rays finished the month of May looking a lot more like themselves in a 5-2 win over the Angels on Sunday afternoon at Tropicana Field.

Toward the end of the 2023 season, Blue Jays prospect Peyton Williams wore a t-shirt to a player meeting emblazoned with the logo for his neighbor's company, Iowa Meat Truck. The shirt was an immediate hit with his High-A Vancouver teammates. Players and coaches loved it, and they quickly decided

SEATTLE -- If it truly is the end for the Mariners’ piggyback, at least for now, it went out with a bang. Bryce Miller and Luis Castillo paired up for the third time this season in the Mariners’ series finale against the D-backs, and both did their jobs yet again

ST. LOUIS -- Cardinals right-hander Hunter Dobbins found himself in some admittedly unfamiliar territory on Sunday night. For one, the rubber game of the weekend series against the Cubs marked his Busch Stadium debut. But beyond the newness of that experience, Dobbins took the mound in a role that he

PITTSBURGH -- Pirates first baseman/outfielder Ryan O'Hearn was activated from the injured list ahead of Sunday’s series finale against Minnesota and immediately made his presence known. On the fifth pitch he saw, O’Hearn ripped a shot into the right-field seats to give the Pirates the early lead. Pittsburgh never relinquished

MLB and the MLBPA held their first bargaining session on May 12 as both parties began working toward the next labor agreement. The CBA expires on Dec. 1. Competitive balance will be a focus during discussions, if not the primary issue. Here’s what you need to know about the state

The weather is heating up, and the baseball season is in full swing. As we enter June, it’s time to take a good look at the standings. There’s still plenty of baseball left, but trends that began in April have solidified further in May. Just a little more than one-third

CLEVELAND -- In the bottom of the fifth inning at Progressive Field on Sunday, Masataka Yoshida lost a fly ball in the sun that resulted in the Guardians tying the game before taking the lead one batter later. Two innings later, Yoshida helped make up for that mishap with a

PITTSBURGH -- Pirates shortstop Konnor Griffin was placed on the 10-day IL on Sunday with a minor flexor strain in his right forearm, general manager Ben Cherington announced prior to the Bucs' 9-3 win over the Twins. Ryan O'Hearn (right quad muscle strain) was activated from the IL as the

WASHINGTON -- James Wood and Luis García Jr. each smacked a home run, and two strike-'em-out, throw-'em-out double plays pushed the Nationals to their sixth series win in May in a 4-2 dispatch of the Padres. Wood’s 16th homer of the year was a two-run blast in the fifth off

CINCINNATI – It's safe to say two things about the state of the Reds right now. Where they are so far this season isn't how they drew it up before heading to Spring Training. And, that was one very rough month of May for the club. The month ended with
