On #SpiritDay, MLB stands together to send a message of acceptance and kindness to LGBTQ youth everywhere. Bullying has no place in our game or our communities, and it is important that every single person feels safe and accepted. As we wear purple on Spirit Day, let’s pledge to create environments where every young person knows that they are seen, supported and celebrated. #MLBTogether

This is honestly awesome. If you’re watching playoff baseball hop in the chats during games. There’s a live chat. Tweets about the game. You can see every pitch. Stats. Whatever you want. It’s really cool. teapawt.net/i/mlb/game/93797801943…

"You're So Pretty" is inscribed on Payton Tolle's glove as a heartfelt tribute to his mother, Jina, who passed away from cancer in 2025. She would playfully yell the line to Payton at baseball games to "embarrass" him in front of friends and teammates. 🥹 #PlayersWeekend

He lives in his mom's "nice basement." He gulps Red Bulls to stay alert. He ices his hands to avoid cramps. And for the last 6 days, more than 1,600 attempts, he's been trying to throw a perfect game in MVP '05. Only with Roy Oswalt.🤨 Da story: mlb.com/news/man-trying-to-t…

Editor's Note: Jay Lucarelli did it! After 1,993 tries, after eight days, after a nail-biting ninth inning with nearly another Doug Mirabelli pinch-hit base hit, it's over. A perfect game has been...

Big flies. Tape-measure blasts. No-doubters. Few things in baseball are more awe inspiring than a hitter with light tower power. Upper decker? Over the roof? Onto the street? What's the most memorable moonshot you've ever seen? We're kicking off #250for250 with 10 Mammoth Home Runs that define baseball.

When we were brainstorming ways we could celebrate America 250, we kept coming back to finding a way to capture all of the unique things that make baseball special. We asked ourselves, if we could show someone a collection of things that truly captures and defines what baseball is, what would we show them? To answer that question, we scoured our archives, polled our writers, and reached out to fan communities to find 250 things that define baseball. Clutch plays, ridiculous feats of athleticism, batting stances and windups, drama-filled games. But a ranked list of 250 things lacked stakes. Frankly, it wasn't very fun to read. Instead, we chose 25 categories that collectively represent every facet of the game we love, categories that forced us to think beyond the obvious. Then, we made a top-10 list for each. Some important notes... - We will reveal one top-10 list every weekday over a five-week stretch that begins on Tuesday, August 4 - A play can only appear on one list. If you don't see something you'd expect to see on one list, it might be coming up - That said, limiting categories to Top 10s forced us to make some tough choices. This isn't the 250 most important plays in baseball history; we forced ourselves to be more expansive and embrace all of the different things that define baseball - When all the lists have been revealed, you will be able to create your own definitive top-10 list from the entries. If you could only pick 10 plays or moments that define baseball, what would you pick? Welcome to 250 for 250.
Introducing 250 for 250 25 Top 10 lists that define baseball Celebrating the plays, people, rituals, and moments that make America's game. Pictured: Shohei Ohtani, Hank Aaron, Derek Jeter and Pedro Martínez in various action poses.

There is a baseball game in Alaska played at MIDNIGHT under SUNLIGHT 🤯 The Midnight Sun Game in Fairbanks, Alaska is a 120-year-old tradition where baseball is played on the summer solstice, under Alaska’s 24-hour sunlight Since 1960, the game has been hosted by the Alaska Goldpanners, a collegiate summerball team with alumni that includes Barry Bonds, Jason Giambi, Tom Seaver and many more The game starts at 10 p.m. and usually ends around 1:00 a.m.
