#1How significant was Yoshinobu Yamamoto’s near no-hitter for the Dodgers, and what does his dominant outing suggest about his place in the National League Cy Young race?
#2 The Milwaukee Brewers Jacob Misiorowski threw a record 104.5 mph pitch by a starting pitcher and struck out 15 Phillies in a one-hit shutout. Is this one of the most impressive pitching performances of the 2026 season so far?

Las Vegas A’s podcast Daniel Dullum:
#1 Do the math three touchdowns in football is 24 points and in baseball that’s a record for runs in Colorado Rockies franchise history and they avoided getting swept by the Las Vegas A’s Sunday with a 23-9 rout to conclude the A’s homestand for the week at Las Vegas Ballpark in Summerlin NV.
#2 The A’s won the first two games of the series but in this one the pitching absolutely brokedown surrendering three runs in the fourth, six in the fifth, four in the seventh, and five runs in the eighth.
#3 A’s starter Jeffery Springs got pounded by the Rockies line up going four innings allowing seven hits, six runs, striking out five batters. Despite the pounding the A’s are just a half game back of the Seattle Mariners for first place in the AL West.
#4 The Rockies fell on hit short of setting an all time hit record in a game ending the contest with 24 total hits. The Rockies set the record back on Sep 25, 2011 when they got 25 hits.
#5 The A’s are back in Sacramento on Monday and the drawing board as well as they prepare to face the Pittsburgh Pirates. The Pirates have struggled in their own right losing seven of their last ten games and are 8.5 games back of the NL Central.

Colorado Rockies Hunter Goodman circles the bases after hitting a two run home run against the Las Vegas A’s in the bottom of the first inning at Las Vegas Ballpark in Summerlin NV on Sun Jun 14, 2026 (AP News photo)
By Mauricio Segura
Although the Las Vegas A’s scored almost double digit runs, It’s the Rockies who fly home Sunday singing Viva Las Vegas with a 23-9 rout!
Colorado opened the scoring in the first when Tyler Freeman reached on Max Muncy’s throwing error and Hunter Goodman followed with a two-run homer to center. That could have been an early gut check for the Athletics, but their lineup answered right away.
Lawrence Butler singled, Nick Kurtz reached with a walk, and Tyler Soderstrom ripped a run-scoring double to right. Carlos Cortes then gave Las Vegas the lead with a two-run single, and Muncy added a sacrifice fly to make it 4-2.
The problem was Colorado never stopped applying pressure. Cole Carrigg singled to start the second, Kyle Karros followed with another hit, and Troy Johnston’s groundout brought home a run. Then Willi Castro flipped the game with a two-run homer to left center, putting the Rockies back ahead 5-4. Kurtz tied it in the bottom half with a double that scored Alika Williams, but that was the last time the game resembled a fair fight.
The Rockies broke through again in the fourth. Carrigg singled, Karros doubled him home, and Johnston drilled a two-run homer to right to push Colorado ahead 8-5. Kurtz got one back in the bottom of the inning with a groundout that scored Jeff McNeil, but the fifth inning buried the A’s under a pile of extra-base hits.
Goodman homered again, Ezequiel Tovar singled, Carrigg reached, Karros singled in a run, Johnston doubled in another, Braxton Fulford lifted a sacrifice fly, Castro singled home Johnston, and Freeman tripled in Castro. By the time it ended, Colorado had scored six times in the inning and led 14-6.
To their credit, the Athletics did not disappear at the plate. Zack Gelof doubled in the fifth and scored when Muncy launched a two-run homer to left, trimming the deficit to 14-8. Soderstrom added a center-field homer in the seventh, continuing a strong stretch in which he has been finding a way aboard almost every day.
Gelof also singled later, stretching his hitting streak to 18 games after entering with the longest active run in the majors. Soderstrom’s reaching-base streak grew as well, and Kurtz also kept his own on-base run alive after entering the day among the league leaders in several major offensive categories.
Every A’s answer was swallowed by another Rockies surge as if fueled by the 100 degree Las Vegas heat. Colorado added four more in the seventh, with Freeman, TJ Rumfield, Goodman and Tovar all driving in runs. The eighth was even rougher.
Castro crushed a bases-loaded homer to right, Rumfield followed with a solo shot, and Colorado’s lead ballooned to 23-9. Castro finished with two homers and seven RBI, while Goodman had a monster day of his own with two homers, five hits and four RBI. Johnston, Karros, Rumfield and Tovar also joined the hit parade as Colorado finished with six homers and relentless traffic from top to bottom.
The Athletics even had to use Cortes on the mound late, with the outfielder pitching left-handed in the eighth and ninth after Scott Barlow’s outing stretched the bullpen thin. Cortes gave up Rumfield’s homer but also finished the ninth with a double play, the kind of strange baseball footnote that only shows up in a game that has already gone sideways and started asking for directions.
Las Vegas made so many home runs disappear into the desert sky this week that even David Copperfield and Penn & Teller stood and applauded. But the sweep eluded the Athletics, as the Rockies made sure the series finale belonged entirely to them.
The A’s still had bright offensive moments from Butler, Kurtz, Soderstrom, Gelof and Muncy, but there was no hiding from the obvious: Colorado’s bats controlled the day, and the Athletics’ pitching staff could not find enough answers.
The A’s now return to West Sacramento to host Pittsburgh, with the A’s J.T. Ginn (4-3, 3.15 ERA, 65 K) set to face Pirates right-hander Jared Jones (1-0, 4.73 ERA, 14 K), a matchup Monday set to begin at 6:40 p.m. Pacific.

San Francisco Giants starter Logan Webb delivers against the Chicago Cubs in the top of the first inning at Oracle Park in San Francisco to conclude their three game series Sun Jun 14, 2026 (AP News photo)

SAN FRANCISCO–San Francisco Giants starter Logan Webb delivered another strong eight-inning performance, and the Giants were able to salvage a game in this series with a 5-1 win over the Cubs Sunday at Oracle Park.
The Giants looked—well, were completely lifeless in the first two games in this series. Landen Roupp and Trevor McDonald were smoked in the first two games of this season, and the Giants could only back them up with a run in each game.
Logan Webb threw eight shutout innings against the Nationals on Monday night, but Keaton Winn blew the save. All the talk was whether Tony Vitello should have had Webb go back out for the ninth inning, or whether Webb should have volunteered to go back out for the ninth.
Today, Webb went another eight innings, and struck out seven, while giving up just one unearned run. The run scored in the top of the eighth. Tony went out to visit Webb, but Webb made it quite clear that he wanted to stay in the game, and the Giants’ rookie manager rightfully obliged.
Webb’s day ended on an incredible catch by Jung Hoo Lee at the wall in right to take away extra bases from Michael Busch. Webb specifically waited until Lee got back to the infield, so the Giants’ ace could let his appreciation be known for Lee.
In his three starts since returning from the injured list, Webb had given up just two runs—one earned—over 23 innings. Webb seems to be back to his old self.
Now the question is whether the Giants will entertain the prospect of trading their longtime ace. In a season like this, anything is on the table, especially a trade that could nab some major prospects. However, unlike hitters, starting pitchers tend to stay in their primes well into their 30s, occasionally even their early 40s.
Players like Luis Arraez and Rafael Devers—the latter, if the Giants are willing to eat a large chunk of his contract—will also nab the Giants some major prospects. At which point, they can keep Webb, and surround him in the rotation with talented young aces. Webb feasibly could be in his prime through 2037. We will just to see what happens over the next 50 days.
For those of you wondering, the Giants gave Webb the run support he needed. They broke through for three runs in the bottom of the fifth when Drew Gilbert knocked in Jung Hoo Lee with a double, and Matt Chapman hit a home run to left-center.
The Giants tacked on runs in the seventh and eighth, and Caleb Kilian threw a 1-2-3 top of the ninth.
The Giants go 2-4 on the homestand, and improve to 29-43 overall.
Now, it’s off to Atlanta, or shall I say Cumberland, to take on the best team in Baseball in the 46-25 Braves. Good luck, Giants!
For Tuesday night for San Francisco RHP Adrian Houser (2-6 ERA 5.54) will go up against Atlanta’s RHP Grant Homes (4-2 ERA 4.05) in the series opener on Tuesday. First pitch will be at 7:15 p.m. in Georgia, 4:15 p.m in San Francisco.

The Giants went up 1-0 at that point of the Contest. However, they weren’t finished scoring, as Matt Chapman added to the total with a two run homer, scoring the aforementioned Gilbert. After five full innings, the Giants led 3-0.
The Cubs were not as active crossing the plate as they were the previous two games. They had a few opportunities, but nothing came to fruition untill the latter innings.
San Francisco was at it again in the bottom of the seventh. Brian Eldsridge hit an RBI single to left, scoring Chapman. The lead extended to four runs, 4-0 after seven innings of baseball. The following inning the visitors from the Northside of the Windy City finally got onto the scoring column, due to a single, and throwing error on the Giants’ first baseman. The Cubs were within three runs, 4-1.
The Giants scored again in the bottom of the frame, scoring their fifth and final run on an “excuse me” RBI single to right by catcher Daniel Susac. Casey Schmitt crossed the dish for run #5 for the home team, to the delight of another sellout crowd..
The Cubs head back to the City of Broad Shoulders Monday, June 15, to host the Colorado Rockies at 7:05 PM CT on MARQUEE TV.. The pitching matchup: For the Rockies RHP Michael Lorenzen (2-8, 7,54) for the Cubs LHP Shota Imanaga (4-6 ERA 4.44).

GIANTS: Time for the Summer Sale
Tha’ts Amaury News and Commentary
By Amaury Pi-González
Summer begins on June 21; stores like Macy’s cannot wait to mark down merchandise, and some items are already marked down by as much as 30%. The baseball world, which is also big business like retail markets, is knocking on the door of what could be a busy summer for players changing uniforms.
During this time of the season, as July 4 approaches, teams usually conduct their evaluations. There are just two types of transactions for Front Offices, buyers and sellers. The San Francisco Giants, who were not considered serious contenders at the start of the season, but nobody could have predicted that their season could go south so quickly, and they might not even reach their 81-81 record season-ending last year, there is only one thing they can do: to improve the team for next season and beyond.
The Giants will be sellers; there is no doubt about it. They have some good veteran players who could go to teams that still have hope this year. Although the Giants do not say they are rebuilding, they insist that they are not buying players either, making a clear path for the future.
If the 2027 season is very much in doubt because a big labor battle is heating up between the owners, who want to lock out the players, and the players’ union, which refuses to accept a salary cap.However, there are a few scenarios where I believe the Giants can improve.
Big Giants items they could offer? 1- Logan Webb. He is still a very good pitcher, a #1 on most teams. He will bring other players of value and potential, giving the Giants a new look. 2-Luis Arraez. The three-time batting champion (with three different teams) could try his fortune somewhere else for a fourth batting championship; he is very capable, very good contact hitter. He is on an expiring one-year $12 million contract with a team going nowhere, and he is most likely the most valuable trade bait for the Giants today. 3-Rafael Devers. I would trade him, but they will probably not get rid of him, because of “mucho dinero,” lots of money still owed on his contract when he came from Boston.
However, I would not be surprised if they deal Rafael Devers. In over 40 years in this business, I have seen stuff that makes me scratch my head. I believe this trio of established stars is something the Giants front office could “sell”, as they are basically looking to unload impending free agents and expensive veterans; they have to shift their focus to acquiring prospects and retooling for the future.
These are some of the challenges the San Francisco Giants front office faces this summer. They have to “rebuild” a bullpen, which, in my humble opinion, is embarrassing. Giants could have a busy summer ahead. Sometimes, a team, even with talent, lacks that chemistry, that desire to win. This is the case of the 2026 SF Giants version.

SAN FRANCISCO–The San Francisco Giants faithful stayed sitting down, while the Chicago Cubs overcrowded Oracle Park and stood loudly in a 6-1 win against the Giants on Saturday night.
The game started with a solo homerun bomb at the first pitch by Cubs all-star Pete Crow-Armstrong. This set the tone for the Cubs’ offense, aiming to play with an attacking offense.
The Giants went into this outing hoping to bring the winning energy they had against the Cubs in Chicago over to San Francisco. Rookie Bryce Eldridge came close as he hustled to second for a double, but the Cubs’ defense was right there, spying his enthusiasm for an extra bag from a mile away.
The theme of the evening was clear from the start – the Giants’ defense and pitching continue to struggle. Vitello spoke with the media pregame and mentioned they are looking for ways to improve by rotating their bullpen lineup through guys that are up and feeling good to combat the injured relievers.
The Giants’ pitching had three Cubs batters hit by a pitch through a two-inning stretch. A struggling look for the Giants’ bullpen.
The Giants starter, RHP Trevor McDonald pitched for 3.2 innings, being pulled during the fourth with the bases loaded. LHP Reiver Sanmartin relieved McDonald, finished the day with a 2-4 record and a 4.64 ERA.
“I think TMac was a little bit out of sync…yanking some pitches to the glove side…He’s been so good at being one of our best strike throwers,” Vitello said.
“It wasn’t very good overall…got my pitch count up and just got to be better,” McDonald said.
The Giants’ offense fought for some flow, but kept getting shut down by the Cubs’ pitching. In the third inning, Drew Gilbert walked, and Luis Arraez followed suit by hitting a triple, leading to Gilbert running home and scoring a run. The outing came to a close after Casey Schmitt and Rafael Devers struck out. This was the lone offensive success by the Giants throughout the evening.
“In particular, tonight, I know he’s (Gilbert) as ambitious as all of them. So frustrated when he doesn’t do what he’s capable of doing,” Vitello said.
The Cubs maintained a constant flow, having multiple batters hit solo home runs scattered across the box score by Ian Happ and Pedro Ramirez.
Rookie Bryce Eldridge extended his on-base streak to a career-best of 19 games, and Devers had a 2-4 on his at-bats for the evening, the team’s best.
The Giants look to regain some momentum Sunday afternoon in the series finale against the Cubs who will start RHP Colin Rea (5-4 ERA 5.19) at Oracle Park with RHP Logan Webb (3-4 ERA 3.88) starting on the bump. First pitch at 12:10 p.m.
