The relief on Joey Gallo’s face was obvious on Thursday night. The Yankees’ struggling slugger knows he is paid to hit balls hard, preferably over the fence, and get on base. Finally, after making a minor adjustment and being just a tick more aggressive in his approach, Gallo got some results. Over the last two…

Anthony Rizzo never envisioned the Chicago Cubs would tear everything down so quickly.

Loup waited and waited for the Mets to negotiate with his camp last offseason, but he couldn’t get any answers from the club’s wavering front office before he signed with the…

In other words, Huntley, a 2020 undrafted free agent entering his third season, is still a stop-gap measure. There were some Ravens fans…

Periodic rumors that the team, beleaguered on the field yet beloved by generations of Baltimoreans, could be sold or moved out…

Twenty-five years ago this week, the Mets and Yankees played for real for the first time, games that counted not just in fans’ souls or owners’ minds, but in the standings, too. The birth of interleague play, which has offered annual bragging rights ever since — sometimes over someone in your own home — delighted…
