  • First teams to clinch, Shohei Ohtani's record night
    Sep 20 2024

    We're counting down the days to the end of the 2024 regular season, and several teams across Major League Baseball have clinched their postseason spot. The Brewers were the first team to do so, winning the NL Central and proving nearly everybody wrong. A few more teams followed suit later in the week, setting up the first pieces of the playoff picture.

    Shohei Ohtani cemented his MVP front-runner status with a historic night, going 6-for-6 and becoming the first player to have a 50/50 season. What other stat chases are we watching as the season winds down?

  • How many HR will Aaron Judge Hit?
    Aug 30 2024

    Aaron Judge is putting up phenomenal numbers for the Yankees this season, leaving us with two questions: how many home runs will he hit and is he better this year than he was in 2022? Trey thinks he'll slow down and get some rest towards the end of the regular season, but Matt is hoping for a new AL record by the end of September. Plus, Juan Soto is having a remarkable season as well and would be in the MVP conversation if Aaron Judge wasn't doing what he's doing.

    And, two once proud organizations are struggling this year, with the White Sox the first team to 100 losses and the Cardinals practically giving away tickets. What's next for these teams?

Where will Judge end up on the all-time home run list by the time he retires?

    Plus, the Atlanta Braves and Cincinnati Reds are playing a game at Bristol Motor Speedway next season in what promises to be one of the most unique atmospheres in MLB history. And, Virginia's own Will Wagner - son of Billy Wagner - shines in his MLB debut.

    The College World Series came to a close on Monday with the Tennessee Volunteers winning their first title in program history. UT beat Texas A&M in three games to win the title, and the loss upset A&M's coach so much he left the team to take the head coach job at Texas. This week's coaching drama is sure to add another spark to the Texas-Texas A&M rivalry this fall on the football field.
