On Thursday, Philadelphia Phillies ace Zack Wheeler gave the Reds' lineup
The Phillies overcame a rare shaky start from Zack Wheeler to beat the
The older I get, the more my dying brain cements around the idea that fans invoke “small sample size” primarily when they don’t like the results. In a small sample size, Joey Bart is doing very nicely as a new member of the Pittsburgh Pirates, who’ve come to play the San Francisco Giants this weekend in a 3-game series. He’s 7-for-23 with a trio of dingers, a double, and 8 RBI to go with 5 walks against just 8 strikeouts. That’s a triple slash of .304/.429/.739 in a measly 28 PA. Now, it’s not...

Here is the boxscore from the last game these two teams played in Wrigley Field before today. Just four men who played in that game nearly 11 years ago are still active: Jose Altuve, J.D. Martinez, Jordan Lyles and Anthony Rizzo. One is deceased (Luis Valbuena, who died in a car accident in 2018). The Cubs won that game 14-6. Rizzo homered for the Cubs. So did Ryan Sweeney, who is now doing studio work for Marquee Sports Network. That series was the first time the Cubs faced the Astros after...
Banking five wins last week to get back to .500 on the season was exactly what the doctor ordered for the Mariners. It was even more important that they took care of business against the likes of the Reds and Rockies because Seattle’s schedule is about to get a lot harder over the next couple of weeks. They’ve got this series on the road against the Rangers, then host the Diamondbacks and Braves before starting off the month of May with a trip to Houston. If the Mariners have truly turned a...
