Both players, the C’s coach said in an extensive interview with the Herald yesterday, should be ready for regular basketball activity once players begin returning for pick-up games in August.

The Diamondbacks got started early, with a two-run homer from Paul Goldschmidt, not even a handful of pitches into the game. Ketel Marte added a solo shot, and further RBI from Jeff Mathis and Jarrod Dyson pushed the score to 6-0 by the middle of the fourth.

He ended up going 6.1 innings, with three runs on seven hits and two walks with five strikeouts. Things looked very dicey in the...

LAA asks the Diamondbacks for assistance with their 2018 self-immolation and Arizona is more than happy to oblige. The Angels returned to Anaheim today, the proud proprietor of a 1-6 record over the previous 8 days, and made good on their oath to maintain this trend of decay. The Angels higher-ups may not have outright claimed it and they may not ever, but it is apparent that the sweep at the hands of the Mariners has driven them to embrace the Wikimedia Commons It’s not necessarily a bad thing.
