According to Major League Baseball’s Sarah Langs, Harper’s 14 extra-base hits are the most for a Phillies player in a ten-game stretch in the last 125 years. For a team as successful as Philadelphia is, the feat is an impressive one. Thomson’s offense has seen an uptick from Harper and his...

Harper, who on April 28, 2012, at age 19 made his MLB debut with the Washington Nationals, became at age 32 the youngest player to reach the 350 home run plateau.

Nick Kurtz makes MLB history with a stat line no player has ever achieved in 150 years “Never in baseball’s 150-year history has a player finished a game with at least six hits, six runs and eight RBIs until Nick Kurtz tonight,” reported ESPN’s Jeff Passan on X. “His 19 total bases tie Shawn...

I never knew any of that. Very interesting. I'm surprised he's in the HOF. His numbers are good but not great, although he did appear to have a few great seasons. The HOF has been watered down with people like this / Harold Baines / Jim Rice, in my opinion.

https://www.mlb.com/news/jac-caglianone-hits-first-career-mlb-home-run In his first at-bat Thursday, Caglianone crushed his first career home run, a 387-foot shot in the second inning. He added to his milestone day with his second home run in the ninth inning, sending it out to right-center...

The New York Mets left baseball fans furious on Friday night after showing a Pride flag on their big screen during a rendition of the US national anthem. Prior to their game against the Tampa Bay Rays, the Mets controversially displayed the LGBTQ+ symbol instead of the American flag as the Star...

it's a chimpout. But we're supposed to act like these people are totally normal - they just have a darker tan than us.

Why PCA's elite defense is even better than it looks Cubs center fielder makes extremely difficult plays seem routine This is largely why, when we look at the Outs Above Average leaderboard for 2025, Crow-Armstrong is at the top among all players, and he’s tied at the top among outfielders in...
