What can these two guys possibly have in common?
Brandon Marsh has never been an All-Star or received an MVP vote. But in one very specific statistical category, he ranks second in baseball history to Hall of Famer Ty Cobb.
Another way Judge excels at the plate
Aaron Judge has not used the ABS challenge system all that often, but the way he has picked his spots has led to him accruing the second-most value in baseball on challenges.
Former player gets in on Tarps Off craze
Rays fans used to root for Brett Phillips when he patrolled the Tropicana Field outfield, but he was with them on the other side of the fence when they went Tarps Off during a Tampa Bay victory.
And is that a Cy winner in the stands?
Phillips wasn’t the only former player who got to be a fan last night as Clayton Kershaw had a front-row seat to see his recent Dodgers teammates in action against the Phillies.
Phillies vs. Dodgers on MLB Network
It is a superstar showdown when Bryce Harper, Kyle Schwarber and the Phillies take on Shohei Ohtani, Freddie Freeman and the Dodgers at 10 p.m. ET (or D-backs vs. Mariners).
