WHEELS NAYLOR! Still one of my favorite stories from this season. https://t.co/VWgvNu4LGO

Josh Naylor doesn’t look anything like a baserunning demon. But since joining the Seattle Mariners earlier this season, he’s been on an improbable stolen base spree.

Dodgers-Brewers is more than just David vs. Goliath, half-a-billion dollars vs. $122 million. With the threat of a labor apocalypse looming, a battle that will soon be fought at the bargaining table is about to be waged on the field. https://t.co/7yQ6q8INC8

Dodgers-Brewers: the $350 million superteam against the $120 million scrappers. With the threat of a labor apocalypse looming over baseball, what happens in this NLCS will no doubt he brought up at the bargaining table. https://t.co/Gume837jIj

A truly remarkable pitching performance by Milwaukee — and now we get the Dodgers-Brewers showdown that the season has been building toward for months. Buckle up.

Mariners fans waited 24 years to see their team earn a spot in the ALCS. The last five hours of the drought aged them another 24 years all at once. https://t.co/eEfwtztwgf

It had been 24 years since Seattle had a chance to compete for the American League pennant. It took the longest winner-take-all victory in playoff history to end the drought.

Is this a good game, or is it so bad that it has somehow looped around and become good?

Living with blindness or vision loss shouldn’t limit mobility. These riders say Waymo can help improve their independence.

I have to be honest, the 3-0 strike call bothers me even more than the replay in some ways. It is just such a bizarre phenomenon in this sport that the 3-0 strike zone suddenly becomes the size of the Pacific Ocean.

Have pitchers ready. But Skubal at 100 pitches is better than the other options IMO.

I get it on pulling Kirby, even though it's frustrating. I'm happy to first-guess: don't take Skubal out here. Even 90% of him or whatever he's down due to fatigue/familiarity is better than *gestures wildly at the bullpen.*

One of my favorite stories I wrote in 2025 was about the discovery of Tarik Skubal. It's truly incredible tale about a few people who saw something in a kid that nobody else could see -- and they were dead right. https://t.co/kY7yW1kvYq

Tigers ace Tarik Skubal wasn’t a can’t-miss prospect. In fact, he was barely a prospect at all—until a veteran MLB scout watched him pitch in the snow.

Great piece by Jared as always, but Yogi Berra and his 10 World Series rings has to be mentioned here.
It’s hard to believe, but Aaron Judge just finished his 10th major-league season. In April, he turns 34. The Yankees still haven’t won a championship with the planet’s greatest slugger. And this time, Judge did everything he possibly could in October. https://t.co/tX7C670TcC

The cumulative score of the NLDS that just ended was: Philadelphia 15-Los Angeles 13 The Dodgers are the team moving on to the NLCS. Baseball is weird and cruel game.
