The second Blake Snell walked the leadoff batter it should have been time for the fully rested bullpen Love Dave Roberts but what a generationally bad couple of games he’s had this series

If you’ve lived through the Elmer Dessens era, the Wilton Guerrero era, the Henry Rodriguez era, and the Milton Bradley era of Dodgers baseball…. You appreciate these moments

This is a tremendous story from Jorge that illustrates the lack of Latin American player leadership at the MLBPA -- and explains how baseball's signing system, where kids often drop out of school before they're teenagers to prepare to get signed, perpetuates a rotten cycle.
Latin American players make up more than 25% of MLB rosters. And yet, with an international draft on the table during CBA negotiations, there's just one among the 38 players in MLBPA leadership positions: Pablo López. "It's important to have a voice." espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/4935…

Sony Pictures Animation’s ā€œGOATā€ has made history as the first major studio film to use an all-disability loop group. Nearly two dozen actors with disabilities provided the crowd chants, arena noise and background voices heard throughout the animated action-comedy. variety.com/2026/film/news/g…

Seth Rogen just called out the Writers Guild of America during his acceptance speech at the Actor Awards "This is a great award show! This is incredible...you were able to pay your own employees enough to keep the award show from being canceled. Take notes, WGA."

Join our fellow union kin tomorrow for an action at Universal Studios Theme Park to take back our power and stand up to corporate greed! IATSE Local B-192 and Unite Here Local 11 are in a joint bargaining campaign for workers at Universal Studios Hollywood and are encountering severe resistance to their proposals. At the same time, the company continues to insist that near-poverty wages are acceptable for these workers! RSVP here for tomorrow's rally to support our kin: actionnetwork.org/events/act…

I have called for the full release of the Epstein files. I have provided a sworn statement of what I know. And just this week, I’ve agreed to appear in person before the committee. But it’s still not enough for Republicans on the House Oversight Committee.

For us sports fans of a certain age, the sports section of the newspaper taught us how to read. I didn’t grow up with the Washington Post sports section, but I did grow up because of it. Today’s a sad day for my friends and for all of us.

Maybe I'm just a bitter Dodgers fan but it doesn't sit right with me that we're in a world where 2017 Astros players are getting big FA contracts and elected to the hall of fame while Barry Bonds isn't in the hall of fame and Emmanuel Clase is banned from baseball.

If unions weren’t so critical to rebalancing power for workers, companies wouldn’t spend so much time and energy trying to bust them.
Former workers at Rockstar Games say they were fired for trying to unionize. Over 30 employees at the company behind Grand Theft Auto were fired in what the Independent Workers' Union of Great Britain calls a "ruthless act of union-busting."
