After playing 16 NFL seasons, Josh McCown announced his retirement in order to spend more time with his family. Although he was planning to be an ESPN analysis this season, he mentioned that if the right opportunity came along he would "strongly consider" playing again. The right opportunity has come along after 2 Eagles backup quarterbacks went down with...

With a single into right field that scored Mike Trout, Los Angeles Angels' Albert Pujols passed yet another milestone in his historic baseball career. He passed fellow Dominican born Adrian Beltre to become the all-time hits leader for foreign-born players. Career hit no. 3,167 now places him 15th on the all-time hit list.

Gleyber Torres may not have been part of the Bronx Bombers for long, and although his name isn't Aaron Judge, Giancarlo Stanton, or Gary Sanchez, he is certainly on the radar now.

"It ain't over til it's over" seems to be the Dodgers theme this year as they continue to dominate at Dodger Stadium. This time, they were shut out for 8 innings by the Cardinals before scoring 2 in the bottom of the ninth to win once again 2-1. The St. Louis Cardinals came into Los Angeles hot and hoped...

For 2 teams in the AL East heading in very different directions, there was a lot to watch during the Orioles- Yankees game on Monday. With the Orioles sitting at 38-74 and 35 games behind first place, there is not much left to root for this season. The Yankees have almost the exact opposite record at 73-39 and are...

Following the combined no-hitter on Saturday, the red hot Astros made more history the next day. With his 4th strikeout of the game, Justin Verlander became the 7th pitcher in major league history with 9 or more seasons with 200 strikeouts.
