Two weeks into baseball and the race is on. Orioles left-fielder Tyler O'Neill hit the first and his only (so far) home run of the season on March 27th adding to his MLB record of six consecutive Opening Day home runs. New York Yankees Captain Aaron Judge, who hit 58 home runs last year including his 300th career home run, currently leads at 6. Meanwhile, Cubs right-fielder Kyle Tucker, Angels catcher Logan O'hoppe, Dodgers second-baseman Tommy Edman and Diamondbacks third-baseman Eugenio Suárez all trail with 5.

   Baseball fans everywhere have been talking about the new bats the New York Yankees made famous over their opening series against the Milwaukee Brewers. The Yankees swept the series and scored 36 runs with a massive 15 home in three games. 

   Right-handed Dodgers pitcher Roki Sasaki has had a hard time finding his groove in L.A with his first two starts falling short. The 23-year-old rookie left Saturdays game between the Detroit Tigers after just over 1 1/2 innings giving up three hits and two earned runs allowed plus four walks. He threw 61 pitches with 32 strikes before exiting the game but there were also some impressive throws seen.  

  The Yankees will have to do without their Ace Pitcher Gerrit Cole for the 2025 season due to Tommy John surgery and Left-fielder Giancarlo Stanton will miss a minimum of four weeks with torn tendons in both elbows.

   Despite skepticism and controversy, we have now experienced an entire spring training with Robot Umpires.  Although there was some concern amongst fans about the system taking away the human aspect of the game, the Robo Umps are low key and non-invasive.
