Cleveland Guardians score three runs in the eighth to beat the playoff-bound Baltimore Orioles 5-2

Ramón Laureano drew a bases-loaded walk off Jacob Webb for the go-ahead run in the eighth inning, sending the Cleveland Guardians to a 5-2 triumph over the AL East-leading Baltimore Orioles on Thursday night. The Guardians scored three times in the bottom of the eighth — all charged to Cionel Pérez (4-2) — immediately after the Orioles tied the game with two in the top half. Bo Naylor’s run-scoring single and Gabriel Arias’ RBI grounder followed Laureano’s walk that plated Josh Naylor. “Cionel has been absolutely exceptional for us, but he just had an off-night,” Baltimore manager Brandon Hyde said. “Give our guys credit for coming back […]

Mike Clevinger pitches a 6-hitter as the White Sox beat the Nationals 6-1

Mike Clevinger pitched a six-hitter for his third career complete game, and the Chicago White Sox defeated the Washington Nationals 6-1 on Monday night. Luis Robert Jr. hit a three-run homer for Chicago, which improved to 5-12 in September. Tim Anderson had four of the team’s 15 hits. Clevinger was working on a shutout before Dominic Smith hit his 10th homer with two out in the ninth inning. Smith walked slowly to first while watching the shot to right-center, and then flipped his bat. Clevinger (8-8) apparently took exception and exchanged words with Smith, prompting benches to clear in an incident that didn’t escalate beyond shouting. Clevinger then struck […]

Aaron Judge hits grand slam to help Yankees beat Red Sox 8-5 for doubleheader split

Aaron Judge hit a grand slam, DJ LeMahieu broke an eighth-inning tie with an RBI double, and the New York Yankees defeated the Boston Red Sox 8-5 on Thursday night to split a doubleheader. Oswald Peraza hit his first career homer, a two-run shot in the ninth for the Yankees (74-73), who won three of four at Boston to draw even with their rival at the bottom of the AL East. “Incredible moment right there for me. We wanted those runs in that inning,” Peraza said through a translator. “To be able to come through and connect there was incredible. We were able to win the series which […]

Mets hiring David Stearns as president of baseball operations

The New York Mets are hiring David Stearns as their president of baseball operations, sources told ESPN on Tuesday, tabbing the architect of multiple division titles in Milwaukee to help deliver the first World Series championship to Queens in nearly four decades. Stearns, 38, has long been rumored to take over the Mets after stepping down as Brewers president after the 2022 season and will officially start his five-year deal in early October, after the regular season ends, sources told ESPN. A New York native who grew up a Mets fan, Stearns was denied permission by the Brewers to talk about the Mets’ top baseball operations […]

Yankees place OF Jasson Dominguez on IL with torn UCL

As expected, the New York Yankees placed top prospect Jasson Dominguez on the 10-day injured list Monday. Dominguez, 20, has a torn ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow and is expected to have Tommy John surgery. Dominguez was scratched from Sunday’s game versus Milwaukee with inflammation in the elbow. Reconstructive surgery would sideline the switch-hitting center fielder for a minimum of six months. “The plan is to go through surgery as soon as possible and try to recuperate as soon as possible,” Dominguez said Sunday, per CBS News in New York.

Jose Altuve continues HR barrage with 3 in first 3 innings at Texas

Jose Altuve homered in each of the first three innings Tuesday night, leading the Houston Astros’ explosive beginning in their rivalry clash with the Texas Rangers. The barrage gave Altuve homers in four consecutive plate appearances going back to Monday’s game and five homers in six plate appearances — the most in a two-game span in Astros history and tied for the most over two games in MLB history. He is the first player since at least 1961 (expansion era) to hit a home run in four consecutive innings, and the fourth to hit five home runs in six plate appearances, joining Manny […]

Shohei Ohtani plans to continue to be two-way player

Shohei Ohtani is still evaluating medical opinions on the tear in his right ulnar collateral ligament, but his agent, Nez Balelo of CAA, made two things clear Monday afternoon: Ohtani will be ready to at least hit at the start of next season, regardless of how much longer he plays in 2023, and he will stay a two-way player down the road. “There’s not a question in his mind that he’s going to come back and he’s going to continue to do both,” Balelo told a large contingent of reporters from his suite at Angel Stadium, marking the first time he, […]

Angels’ Shohei Ohtani has elbow tear, won’t pitch again this season

Shohei Ohtani has a tear in the ulnar collateral ligament in his right elbow and will not pitch again this season, Los Angeles Angels general manager Perry Minasian stated Wednesday night in Anaheim, California, a shocking twist in the lead-up to arguably the most highly anticipated free agency in baseball history. Ohtani exited his start in Game 1 of a doubleheader versus the Cincinnati Reds earlier Wednesday after recording just four outs and throwing only 26 pitches. A subsequent MRI revealed the tear, though Minasian said he did not know the severity of it. Ohtani nonetheless insisted on serving as the designated hitter in Game […]

Yankees lose 8 in row for first time since 1995 as Justin Turner leads Red Sox to 6-5 win

An overturned call at the plate in the eighth inning led to the latest loss in what’s become the New York Yankees’ worst season in decades. The Yankees extended a losing streak to eight for the first time in 28 years, allowing Justin Turner’s ninth-inning go-ahead double in a 6-5 defeat to the Boston Red Sox on Sunday. “We got to be unbelievable the rest of the way,” manager Aaron Boone stated after the Yankees dropped to 60-64 and fell nine games behind Seattle for the AL’s last wild card spot. New York appeared to break a 5-5 tie in the eighth when Isiah […]

Dodgers’ Tony Gonsolin placed on IL, season likely over

Los Angeles Dodgers right-hander Tony Gonsolin has been placed on the 15-day injured list, with manager Dave Roberts telling reporters it is unlikely that Gonsolin pitches again this season. Gonsolin allowed five home runs in Friday’s 11-3 loss to the Miami Marlins, snapping the Dodgers’ 11-game winning streak. He surrendered a career-worst 10 earned runs on eight hits in 3⅓ innings. He stated after the game he has been dealing with an elbow problem. “I can’t explain it right now,” Gonsolin said. “I don’t know what it is exactly, so I try not to.” Roberts stated Gonsolin had been pitching through an “arm issue” for at […]
