Atletico Madrid boss Diego Simeone says he has a plan for Tuesday’s crucial Champions League quarter-final second leg against Barcelona. The hosts head into the game 2-0 up in the tie and in good shape to make it through to the semi-finals and a match-up against Arsenal or Sporting. Simeone made 10 changes to his […]
Before we start, I want to thank everyone who has even read one of these this season. They’ve always been a fun way to talk about basketball and the Houston Rockets specifically. A huge round of appreciation for Xiane and Holly, who each grabbed a couple of previews back in January while I was abroad […]
The Texas Rangers scored three runs but the Los Angeles Dodgers scored six runs. Even after turning a corner last season, Jack Leiter remains a work in progress. Or, perhaps a better way to say it is he’ll likely always be prone to having nights like this as long as command is never his strong […]
LOS ANGELES — Emmet Sheehan had his best start of the early season, backed by early home runs in the Dodgers’ 6-3 win over the Texas Rangers on Saturday night at Dodger Stadium. The Dodgers wore their city connect uniforms for the first time in 2026, and connected right away off Rangers starter Jack Leiter. […]

On Saturday evening, WNBA reporter Khristina Williams and ESPN’s Alexa Philippou reported that Washington Mystics center Stefanie Dolson has signed her next contract with the Seattle Storm. Dolson was the Mystics’ No. 6 overall pick in the 2014 WNBA Draft where she played from 2014-16 and was an All-Star in 2015. She was then traded […]
I was in Los Angeles for an MLB The Show tournament, eating dinner at my hotel with my eyes glued to the TV on the other side of the bar, when the Chicago White Sox drafted Noah Schultz, an 18-year-old left-handed reliever from Oswego East High School, for the 26th overall pick. “That’s my rival […]
Louisville Redbirds 6, Charlotte Knights 4The Redbirds have done a number on several Knights relievers this series, and this time it was Tyler Schweitzer’s turn to face the music. Schweitzer earned the loss after giving up the go-ahead, three-run homer off a changeup right down the pipe. Korey Lee attempted to rally a comeback by […]

The Wisconsin Badgers were the better team all day at T-Mobile Arena, but the final tally on the scoreboard goes to the Denver Pioneers as they scored two third-period goals to win the 2026 National Championship by a score of 2-1.

Barcelona moved another step closer to retaining their La Liga title on Saturday by beating Espanyol at Camp Nou 4-1 thanks to goals from Ferran Torres, Lamine Yamal and Marcus Rashford. The win sees Barcelona move nine points clear of Real Madrid at the top of the table following their draw with Girona on Friday […]
With the Nashville Predators and the Los Angeles Kings winning their respective games today, the Winnipeg Jets needed the same result in their game against the Philadelphia Flyers if they wanted any legitimate chance at making the playoffs. Mathematically, the Jets wouldn't be eliminated from the race, but the required wins and losses to get in are at their maximums after tonight's woeful, uninspired 7-1 hammering at the hands of the Flyers. For a team that needed to be at its best to make the...
By: Alexandre Gangue-Ruzic, and Samuel Rowan Saturday afternoon at BC Place, the Vancouver Whitecaps vaulted themselves to the top of the MLS standings with a 2-0 win over NYCFC. Vancouver’s strong start to the season continued in earnest against their Eastern Conference opposition. The first half was heavily tilted in the Whitecaps’ favour, as they made just one change to the Starting XI from last … Source
Chicago lost yet again on Saturday at the United Center, falling 5-3 to the St. Louis Blues. St. Louis struck first midway through the opening period. The Blackhawks weren’t able to get the puck out and, after some cycling, Jimmy Snuggerud got to the net to tip in Tyler Tucker’s shot. Not sure there's a more perfect tip than that. #stlblues pic.twitter.com/dS3bAXIjGI — St. Louis Blues (@StLouisBlues) April 11, 2026 The Blackhawks evened the score 1-1 about five minutes lat...
In our most recent Utah Jazz Fan Reacts survey, we’re looking forward to what is likely going to be an incredibly consequential offseason. Utah may have to make some tough decisions as they look at their roster. This season, the Utah Jazz have been playing to position themselves as well as they can for the […]
This game started like a chess match and ended like a street race, and once the Rays hit the gas, the Yankees could not catch a break. For six innings, this one had all the tension of a real pitchers’ duel. Nick Martinez was not overpowering, but he was calm throughout, which against the Yankees […]
It was a scary-looking scene for Ottawa Senators captain Brady Tkachuk on Saturday. He left the game near the end of the second period after some sort of mysterious ailment robbed him of his balance. He stumbled off the ice and went to the locker room. Tkachuk in serious discomfort. Left the game. #GoSensGo pic.twitter.com/uCdFQ2urLN — Everyday Sens (@EverydaySens) April 11, 2026 Tkachuk actually tried to come back at the beginning of the third period, but lasted only 10 seconds on the ice bef...
Tonight was a weird one. The MASN broadcast booth got its second consecutive day off with Baltimore playing on national television. The Orioles defense added insult to some unfortunate injuries, and Chris Bassitt looked better despite experiencing some more bad luck. A runner was called out for interference, Ryan Helsley pitched in a non-save situation, […]
The Horseshoe Faithful have spoken again! This time, I wanted to make it a little bit different, and more of ‘just for fun’ survey questions, but two answers I was hoping to find this week were. As it relates to newly projected Colts starters, which right now are safety Hunter Wohler, Jalen Travis, and Akeem […]
Thank the baseball GODs for that ninth inning. The Red Sox came into the final frame with a tenuous one-run lead, after Garrett Whitlock gave up a solo shot to Jordan Walker in the bottom of the 8th. Trevor Story led off with a walk—something that hasn’t been a big help to the Red Sox […]
Things we predicted in the preview: a José Ramírez homer, and the Guardians fighting hard to even up the series. Both things would come to pass as the Braves were shut out for the first time this season, 6-0. The Guardians put together a more complete performance on all fronts. Braves pitching issued a season-high […]
The Cardinals entered the night with a robust 8-5 record while the Red Sox were trying to avoid their 10th loss of the young season. The game was broadcast on Fox so we were given some Smoltz announcing action, which could be described as a mix of lackluster and uninformed. Kyle Leahy was smooth and […]
The reigning national champions are a bad baseball team. LSU (22-14, 6-8) have dropped a crucial road series to Ole Miss (25-11, 7-7) in humiliating fashion, losing 12-2 in seven innings. The Tigers scored the first two runs of the game, and surrendered all 12 Rebel runs over the final three innings, including seven in […]
