SEATTLE -- Say what you will about the 2026 Mets, but one thing is unequivocally true: No one has played more free baseball than them. Nine innings have frequently not been enough for the Mets, who played their 12th extra-inning game of the year Monday night at T-Mobile Park. Not

SAN DIEGO -- Scoreless and down to their final strike, the Padres pulled off a dramatic and improbable comeback on Sunday afternoon, earning a weekend split against the Cardinals at Petco Park.

MILWAUKEE – For the first time in 2026, the Brewers were walk-off winners. It took a pair of comebacks, a surprise relief stint from one of their starting pitchers and a couple of reminders that even the team with one of the best records in the Majors is prone to

MILWAUKEE – Manager Aaron Boone admitted Saturday that, as difficult as it was watching the Yankees struggle against Brewers ace Jacob Misiorowski the previous night, the loss was easy for his club to flush. One reason why? New York was countering Milwaukee with its own flamethrower in Cam Schlittler.

CHICAGO -- Michael Busch raised both arms skyward after rounding first base and was soon met on the field by his Cubs teammates, who poured out of the third-base dugout. The first baseman got the customary treatment: players pulling at his jersey, drenching him with water and soon jumping together

ST. PETERSBURG -- The Rays couldn’t have asked for a much better setup in the 10th inning Sunday afternoon at Tropicana Field. After Tampa Bay tied the score in the eighth, Bryan Baker pitched a clean ninth, and lefty Ian Seymour didn’t even let the Giants’ automatic runner advance to

CHICAGO -- There’s been much talk centered upon a new White Sox brand of baseball for the 2026 season dating back to SoxFest in January. That talk manifested itself in positive results during the month of April, capped off by a 3-2 victory over the Angels in 10 innings on

WEST SACRAMENTO – It was late in Kansas City, but Bobby Witt Jr. might have awakened everyone from out here on the West Coast. A three-run, opposite-field home run in the top of the 10th inning powered the Royals to a 4-1 series-opening win over the A’s at Sutter Health

On an afternoon when the Nationals were dealing with another blow to their bullpen, starting left-hander Foster Griffin once again provided a consistent force on the mound.

CHICAGO -- A day game after a night game, facing one of MLB’s best pitchers and trying to pull off the rare four-game sweep? The Cubs were up for all challenges -- including multiple blown leads -- in Thursday afternoon's 8-7 win in 10 innings over the Phillies at Wrigley

KANSAS CITY -- Samuel Basallo was determined that he wasn’t going to let the Orioles lose on Monday at Kauffman Stadium. After producing a two-out, two-strike RBI single that tied the game in the ninth, Basallo came through again with a go-ahead RBI single in the 12th that served as

MINNEAPOLIS – After scoring just one run through eight innings, the never-say-die Reds rallied late twice to complete a three-game sweep at Target Field with a 7-4 victory over the Twins in 10 innings on Sunday. The sweep was already the second in three road series this year for the

WEST SACRAMENTO -- Throughout what has been a slow start to his sophomore campaign, neither Nick Kurtz nor the Athletics have shown an ounce of worry. For the A’s, there’s still no hitter they’d rather have up at the plate in a critical moment than the reigning American League Rookie

WEST SACRAMENTO -- Munetaka Murakami has definitely found his groove after scuffling at the plate for most of April. The 26-year-old Japanese slugger made a little history on Saturday, too.

BALTIMORE -- The Diamondbacks’ injuries have forced Adrian Del Castillo into the catcher’s gear for half of his first six starts this season. The way it’s going, he might start asking for the assignment. Del Castillo hit a tiebreaking two-run homer off Tyler Wells, added his first career triple and

MILWAUKEE -- Outside, the game began with a tornado warning and ended with a flash flood warning. Inside the dry confines of American Family Field, lightning flashing through the windows all night long, the Blue Jays weathered their own storm and survived.

ST. PETERSBURG -- If you want to see small ball at its finest, a perfect blend of speed, athleticism, ability and a little bit of good fortune, take the time to watch the Rays’ game-winning rally in the 10th inning Saturday night at Tropicana Field. You won’t find many innings

CHICAGO -- Inside the interview room in the Cubs’ clubhouse at Wrigley Field, manager Craig Counsell expressed confidence that his team’s struggling offense would find its footing here before too long. “Look, it’s going to turn,” Counsell said. “It’s going to happen.”

WASHINGTON -- James Wood homered for a career-best third straight game, Curtis Mead added a tiebreaking solo shot in the fifth inning and an RBI single in the sixth and CJ Abrams added two more hits, a walk and an RBI to continue his exceptional start. None of it was

PHOENIX -- It was a veritable Easter egg hunt for the D-backs to find that one decisive blow that would push them into the win column on Sunday. It finally came on the first pitch in the bottom of the 10th in the form of a Ketel Marte 109.1 mph
