BOSTON — Hours after homering in the team’s 2-0 win over the New York Yankees, Rafael Devers’ days with the Red Sox appear to be over.

In one of the most shocking moves in club history, the Red Sox have reportedly traded the star slugger to the San Francisco Giants, according to multiple reports.

According to FanSided’s Robert Murray, ...Read more

SEATTLE — J.P. Crawford is on some kind of a heater at the plate. At this point, it’s best for opposing pitchers to just assume he’s going to do some damage.

One night after reaching base five times and slugging three hits in Seattle’s walk-off win over the Cleveland Guardians, the Mariners hot-hitting shortstop followed that up in ...Read more

For one inning, the Rockies looked unstoppable.

A six-run seventh inning propelled Colorado to a 10-1 victory on Sunday to avoid a sweep at Truist Park in Atlanta. The largest margin of victory this season improved Colorado to 14-57 — still on pace to be the worst team in the modern era — and made another dubious distinction for the Rockies...Read more

HOUSTON – The American League’s pitcher of the month for May is having a rough June.

Jhoan Duran, who gave up only one run the previous month, has put runners on base in five consecutive appearances in June, and it has cost him and the Twins. A day after giving up a walk-off winner, Duran blew a save for the second time this season, and the...Read more

PHILADELPHIA — A week after punctuating a miserable 10-game stretch by getting swept by one of the worst teams in baseball, the Phillies broomed the Toronto Blue Jays — and closed a get-healthy homestand — with an 11-4 rout Sunday.

The key to the about-face?

Rob Thomson pointed to a bamboo plant in his office.

OK, not really. Like ...Read more

NEW YORK — The Rays made it a clean sweep of the previously major league-best Mets on Sunday, rolling to a 9-0 victory.

A three-run second inning that included one hit out of the infield, a two-run double by Jonathan Aranda and a three-run homer by Junior Caminero provided most of the offense. And Shane Baz pitched strongly into the seventh, ...Read more

All four ...Read more

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Kansas City Royals entered Sunday’s game looking for a clean slate after holding a players-only meeting in the clubhouse following Saturday’s loss, their fifth straight.

It didn’t help. The Royals fell, 3-2, to the Oakland Athletics on Sunday in their series finale, suffering their second straight series sweep in ...Read more

BOSTON — Was Aaron Judge about to do it again?

Clinging to a two run lead with two on in the top of the eighth, the Red Sox watched as the New York Yankees superstar stepped to the plate with a chance to change the game with one swing of the bat.

The moment echoed the ninth inning of Friday’s game, but while that night Judge got the last ...Read more

DETROIT — The Tigers have played clean baseball for most of the season. You don’t carry the best record in baseball into the middle of June without playing the game right.

But the Tigers probably played their sloppiest game of the season on Sunday and it cost them a series.

The Reds rallied for four gift-wrapped, unearned runs in the top ...Read more

BALTIMORE — On a day when the Orioles fielded a lineup without Adley Rutschman, Colton Cowser, Jackson Holliday or Ryan O’Hearn, their offense scored double-digit runs for just the third time this season.

The Orioles swept the Los Angeles Angels with an 11-2 win Sunday afternoon, treating a rain-soaked Father’s Day crowd of 33,370 to 12 ...Read more

In a video Nezza, whose full name is Vanessa Hernández, posted to TikTok, an ...Read more

BOSTON — First Hunter Dobbins spun some yarn about the Yankees. Then he spun a gem against them.

The Red Sox rookie enjoyed one of the best starts of his young career on Saturday night, tossing six scoreless innings in a 4-3 win over the Bombers. The right-hander allowed only two hits his ninth start, and he walked just one while striking out...Read more

ARLINGTON, Texas — Aaron Civale described the last couple of days as “a lot.”

“Found out yesterday morning (that he had been traded) and packed up a whole house with my wife,” Civale said Saturday afternoon at Globe Life Field. “Did what we could to get everything situated and then hopped on a plane and came down here.”

The ...Read more

MILWAUKEE — What could have been a runaway became a tightrope walk.

Nolan Gorman’s three-run, mammoth homer after a teammate was plunked by a pitch shoved the Cardinals out to a six-run lead in the fifth inning all while their starter, Andre Pallante, was piling up a season-high total of strikeouts. After a bruising week, here was the balm ...Read more
