Even teams with losing records still have reason to believe. The Mariners are 48-49, yet they would get the final playoff spot in the embarrassing American League if the season ended today. Meanwhile, the Red Sox and Tigers, once left for dead, are suddenly making noise and among the six AL teams within four games of a wild-card spot. For a number of teams on the bubble, tough decisions loom as the Aug. 3 trade deadline approaches. Even the winning teams that are ahead of schedule — including th

After starting the season with high expectations and a payroll to match, the New York Mets stumbled into the All-Star break following their worst first half in 31 years. Shortstop Francisco Lindor misplayed a potential game-ending, double-play grounder for an error that sparked Boston's comeback in a 3-2, 10-inning win over the Mets on Sunday. New York lost for the 16th time in 22 games and at 40-57 matched its season low of 17 games under .500. The Mets had not been 17 under at the All-Star bre

In each of the two epic quarterfinals we witnessed on Saturday — England’s extra-time win over Norway, Argentina’s extra-time victory against Switzerland — there were long stretches where the underdog seemed destined to pull off the upsets and advance to this week’s semis. Norway led the Three Lions. The Swiss equalized and had the momentum with just over 20 of the regular 90 minutes remaining. Both losers understandably felt aggrieved; the Norwegian players insisted that England’s first goal sh

Kevin De Bruyne and Thibaut Courtois have cast doubt over their Belgium futures following the Red Devils' World Cup exit to Spain.

We scoured the stats at every position to find the most impressive All-Star résumés since 2000. Some of the players who made our squad are household names you won't be surprised to see, but there are a few surprises along the way. (One of these players was the best at his position this century but didn't even make the roster for that year's Midsummer Class

Kane Backs Tuchel's Pursuit Of Perfection Superstar English striker Harry Kane has insisted that manager Thomas Tuchel’s strong criticism of the team’s World Cup performance against Norway was driven by a desire to see their training ground excellence translate into matchdays. While the Three Lions secured a 2-1 win thanks to a Jude Bellingham brace, Tuchel was vocal about his dissatisfaction with the display, describing the team as "lucky" and citing a lack of speed and technical composure. Kan

Jurgen Klopp is on the verge of becoming the new head coach of the German national team after reaching an agreement in principle with the DFB.

Bellingham Leading England's Charge Is England midfielder and 2026 World Cup star Jude Bellingham the English GOAT? Such a thought comes in the wake of another masterclass from the Real Madrid midfielder, who is now England’s joint-top 2026 World Cup scorer alongside Harry Kane with six goals. Bellingham’s impact has been undeniable, particularly in the high-pressure environment of the knockout rounds. Following his two-goal performance in the 3-2 victory over Mexico in the round of 16, he achie

Somehow, yes, it's true: for the first time in World Cup history, the four remaining teams are also the top four teams in FIFA's rankings. The tournament has been around since 1930, and even with an expanded 48-team field designed to create more unpredictability, the final four is as chalk as it gets. No. 1 France plays No. 3 Spain in Dallas on Tuesday, while No. 2 Argentina faces No. 4 England in Atlanta on Wednesday. No matter who wins, we’ll be rewarded with a dream final. That got us thinkin

The Manchester City striker was on the receiving end of a Bellingham masterclass as Norway were eliminated from the competition in a tense quarter-final clash. High Praise From A Former Teammate In the aftermath of England's hard-fought victory over Norway, Haaland was quick to put rivalry aside to laud the per

Cristopher Sánchez will start Tuesday night's 2026 MLB All-Star Game in his home ballpark, taking the mound for the National League against Dylan Cease of the Toronto Blue Jays. The Blue Jays announced Sunday that Cease will be the American League's starter. Dave Roberts of the Los Angeles Dodgers, who is managing the NL, said Sanchez is his starter. "I think he deserves it.

First, the College Football Playoff expanded to 12 teams. Then, the NCAA Tournament expanded to 76 teams. Meanwhile, FIFA is in the midst of its newfound 48-team World Cup (the World Cup previously included 32 counties). On that note, does FIFA have its sights set on tournament expansion — again? After saying that the 48-team 2026 World Cup has been "a huge success," FIFA president Gianni Infantino opened the door to add another 16 teams to the tournament for the 2030 World Cup. "That’s definite

Detroit Tigers rookie Kevin McGonigle can't wait to go home for the All-Star Game in Philadelphia. "I'm super pumped," McGonigle said Sunday before facing his hometown Phillies. Even though McGonigle is just 21, he has had a lot of travel bags for baseball. None, though, was like the white one sitting on the carpeted floor next to his chair in the Tigers' clubhouse. The duffel bag was adorned with the All-Star Game logo and there was an Old English D on each end. "I’d say this is the best one I'

The Giants drafted Rutgers outfielder Peyton Bonds in the third round of the amateur draft on Saturday, putting him with the same franchise where uncle Barry Bonds and grandfather Bobby Bonds both starred for years. The 6-foot-5, 230-pound Peyton Bonds hit .352 with six home runs and 13 stolen bases last season for Rutgers. Barry Bonds set a major league record with 762 career home runs and won seven Most Valuable Player awards. Bob
