The New York Yankees are hosting the Boston Red Sox for a four-game series, but this edition of the teams’ fierce rivalry has different stakes than usual.
Rather than win-loss records or the playoff race, the main focus this time will be whether Yankees slugger Aaron Judge sets an American League record for home runs. And, to the consternation of media watchers and many Yankee fans, tonight’s series opener will only be available on Apple TV+, not on the Yes Network or anywhere else on the linear TV dial.
Apple and Major League Baseball in March announced a multi-year deal for Friday Night Baseball, with the tech giant paying a reported 85 million per season for exclusive rights to stream the weekly showcase. Unlike the norm for Prime Video, Peacock, ESPN+ or other sports streamers, Apple isn’t requiring viewers to pay to see the games, as they would to...

A newcomer to the sportscasting space might be tasked with chronicling a bit of Major League Baseball history.
Now that Aaron Judge has slugged home run No. 60 for the season, the New York Yankees outfielder is just one dinger away from matching Roger Maris’ all-time American League record, and two away from breaking it.

Bryan Cranston’s Walter White once said, “I am the one who knocks.”
On Saturday at Dodger Stadium, Cranston was indeed the one knocked, getting hit by a line drive during the All-Star Celebrity Softball game warmups. The event was part of Major League Baseball’s festivities leading up to Tuesday night’s All-Star game at the stadium.
Cranston was struck in the right shoulder by a line drive off the bat of Grammy Award-winner Anthony Ramos as they took batting practice in side-by-side makeshift cages outside the ballpark.
Cranston, 66-years-old, doubled over for a couple minutes, then headed to his nearby trailer.
“It’s definitely going to bruise,” Cranston said later. “I might be more of a cheerleader in this game.”
But showing the grit that has made him a star, Cranston later felt well enough to play on the field at Dodger Stadium. He took a called third...

Is The Good Doctor scrubbing out?!
That was the question for much of Monday’s episode, which began with Shaun giving Glassman his two weeks notice. He no sooner asked Melendez for a letter of recommendation to transfer his residency to Penn State Medical Center. This was influenced by his desire to stay close to Lea, who last week revealed that she was moving to Hershey, Pa.

Glassman signed off on the recommendation, albeit reluctantly. He hand-delivered the letter to Shaun, telling the medical marvel that he believed in him and wanted him to stay.

I’m not sure if we’ll top the Major League video that the Arizona Wildcats college baseball team made earlier this year, but the San Francisco Giants are certainly up there with what they just did. The team decided to make a video that would emulate the introduction to another famous San Francisco based show, Full House. Instead of having Danny Tanner, Jesse, Michelle, and the rest of the crew in the opening credits, we get to see the likes of Brandon Crawford, Hunter Pence, Matt Duffy, Jeremy Affeldt, and even coach Bruch Bochy got in on it! What’s great about
