Purple Row After Dark: What are you watching around MLB this September?

For most of the season, my attention stays pretty firmly on the Colorado Rockies. That will not change down the stretch, but the losses are starting to stack up again. The Rockies are 4-11 over their last 15 games, and that can get frustrating. Sometimes it is nice to look up and see what else […]

Tyler Mahle takes the mound as Braves go for sweep of Rockies

There’s whiplash-inducing, and then there’s whatever the Braves have done in August. The month started with five wins in a row, the bulk of an eight-game winning streak.

In 2022, Major League Baseball adopted the universal designated hitter for both the American and National Leagues.
