Scott Servais is the latest name to surface in the Orioles' search for a new manager. The New York Post's Jon Heyman reports that the O's have interest in the former Mariners skipper, but it isn't known if Servais has been formally interviewed by the team. Reports also emerged yesterday that the Twins were considering Servais for their own managerial opening.

George Springer hit a go-ahead three-run home run in the seventh inning and the Toronto Blue Jays defeated the Seattle Mariners 4-3 on Monday night to advance to their first Major League Baseball (MLB) World Series since 1993. Springer's 23rd career postseason homer helped the Blue Jays win Game 7 of the American League Championship Series. Toronto will face Shohei Ohtani and the Los Angeles Dodgers in the World Series, hosting Game 1 on Friday.

So, uh, there was no playoff game yesterday. Despite what you read here from yours truly, Game 6 of the ALCS is tonight instead of last night. Whoops! That's my bad and apologies to y'all for being goofy online once again. Here's a random clip as an apology. Anyways, the Mariners will be looking to close this thing out and go to their first-ever World

Back at the trade deadline, the Toronto Blue Jays were looking for some key players that could be difference makers for them down the stretch and especially in MLB Playoffs. The Blue Jays ended up doing well in the pitching department, with starter Shane Bieber delivering when the team needed him most and reliever Louis Varland becoming a trusted arm to come in for key high-leverage situations.

Are we having fun yet? Friday was one of the most unforgettable days ever seen in the playoffs, with Eugenio Suarez's go-ahead grand slam rocking T-Mobile Park and putting the Seattle Mariners one win away from the World Series, and then Shohei Ohtani's historic three-homer, 10-strikeout performance that goes down as perhaps the single greatest individual performance in postseason history. Let's call it a top-five day of all time and add this to our list of future projects to research.

Most importantly: What if the deciding game in question NEVER FUCKING ENDED? Because on Friday night, fans of the Seattle Mariners-a team that has never gone to a World Series, much less won one-were run through this exact gauntlet. Fifteen innings against the Detroit Tigers. Five hours. Four hundred seventy-two total pitches thrown, each one more sphincter-clenching than the last.

It's a wide-open field this postseason with no clear favorites like last year's Los Angeles Dodgers. No team in baseball this year won more than 97 games, making the 2025 Milwaukee Brewers the losing-est winningest team in baseball since 2013 (not counting the pandemic-shortened 2020 season). That means it's anybody's World Series title to claim including, potentially, one of three franchises that have never before won the Fall Classic.

SEATTLE -- It had been 24 years and five days since this city experienced its last division title, a wait that turned its baseball fans into one of this country's most tortured. Babies were born, grew up, went to college, got a job, and their beloved Seattle Mariners still had not finished atop the American League West. Maybe this is how it was supposed to happen.

The game was moving quickly to start, with both sides getting on base but ultimately not crossing home. In the bottom of the third with two outs, Steven Kwan hit a clean double, his 100th career double, to left to put him in scoring position. He didn't have to hustle to cross home, Daniel Schneemann hit a home run 408 feet to right center to put the Guards up by 2 in one swing.
