1. The second-annual “Field of Dreams” game is tonight

Major-league baseball comes to Dyersville, Iowa for the second year in a row, happening tonight at 7:15 ET on FOX.

2. The Orioles now hold a postseason spot

If they can keep this up, one of the biggest surprises of the last ten years.

3. A minor-leaguer hit a “home run cycle”

This has to be the #1 coolest thing you can do in a baseball game.

4. Carlos Correa was booed massively at Dodger Stadium

And rightly so, the guy never truly apologized for the Astros cheating scandal — and he’s easily the scummiest guy in the league.

5. And the Dodgers won their tenth straight game

Year after year, their record is historically great.

6. The Tigers fired their longtime GM Al Avila

And at last, Detroit rejoices.

7. Aaron Judge hits HR #45

Crushed to the upper deck in Seattle.

8. The clutch hit of the day: Carlos Santana

And the hopeful chase for a playoff spot continues up in Seattle.

9. Braves rookie Vaughn Grissom homers over the Green Monster for his first career hit

In his debut game — it doesn’t get any better than that.

From ESPN:

10. Injury and rehab news from around the league

11. The Guardians are first in the AL Central

The team bemoaned by many for the minuscule payroll over the offseason, and now they might just go and win the division.

12. And lastly, don’t swing on a ball that bounces

Javy Baez fancied himself a cricketer for a moment there.
