The Cleveland Indians are on one hell of a hot streak. They went 22-6 in the month of June, and tied a franchise record 13-game winning streak with last night’s victory over the Blue Jays. They beat the Jays the way they’ve been beating a lot of teams lately, by sending most of the batters who come to the plate right…

Are you ready for the return of Linsanity? Are you ready for... BrookLinsanity?! Sorry. I’m sorry.

With the NFL giving up its tax-exempt status, we assumed that NFL commissioner Roger Goodell’s 2014 salary was the last that would have to be publicly reported. But thanks to some logistical issues, the league had to reveal the commissioner’s salary one last time.

If there is one thing the employees of Deadspin love, it’s a super tight pool dunk. Now that the weather’s warm and the kids are out of school, it is once again time to do nothing but watch pool dunks all day at work. Are you with us?

Minnesota Twins star Miguel Sano is finishing up a rehab assignment with the team’s Triple A affiliate in Rochester, N.Y. It’s a good thing he’s getting plays like this one out of his system before he returns to the big club:

As you know, men be writin’.

Well, shit. Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw, who was well on his way to turning in one of the greatest single season pitching performances in recorded human history, is reportedly headed for the disabled list.

There’s a line of thinking that says an embarrassing act is only truly embarrassing if you allow it to be. I believe this is what informed Pirates radio broadcaster Bob Walk’s reaction when he fell right out of his damn chair last night.

Last night, Jose Altuve went 4-for-5 with two singles, a double, and a triple. It was the second time this week he’s come up one hit shy of the cycle—he would have had it during Saturday’s game against the Royals had not tripped over second base on his way to a triple—but even without the attention that would have…

It’s Wimbledon, man. Everyone’s excited. I’m excited, you’re excited, and so is this line judge who wants to get the pre-match juices flowing with a few well-struck fist bumps:

The Cubs needed 15 innings to beat the Reds last night, finally putting them to sleep with a Javier Baez grand slam. But before that, Cubs manager Joe Maddon, everybody’s favorite crafty old baseball man, did some fun things with his lineup.

Last night against the Nationals, Mets pitcher Noah Syndergaard made his first start since being removed from a game with elbow discomfort. Syndergaard was not sharp, lasting just three innings and surrendering five runs, and right after the game Mets beat writers started reporting that Syndergaard has bone spurs in…

Tom Hardy isn’t the main character of Peaky Blinders, a BBC show about an upwardly mobile 1920s Romani crime family by the same name. He doesn’t show up until season two as Alfie Solomons, the leader of a Jewish gang in London who becomes one of many adversaries faced by Tommy Shelby (played by Cillian Murphy), the…

After all that—after all the campaigning and hashtags and t-shirts that were supposed to help bring Kevin Durant back to D.C. to play for his hometown team—the Washington Wizards are just throwing in the towel.

There was a very weird baseball game in New York last night. The Yankees led the Rangers 6-5 heading into the ninth inning of a game that had been waterlogged by rainstorms since the fifth. Yankees closer Aroldis Chapman entered the storm to try and close things out, but walked the first batter he faced. That’s when…

The freshly assembled U.S. Olympic basketball team hung out with some kids today, much to the delight of these youngsters:

According to a Facebook post that has since been confirmed as true by an ABC reporter, former NFL quarterback Tim Tebow may very well possess the ability to resurrect the dead.

This video comes to us from reader Bruce, a Cleveland Cavaliers fan who was very excited to see his team win Game 7 of the NBA Finals. Bruce, in a state of bliss, did a lot of jumping and yelling after the final buzzer, and that is sometimes a dangerous thing to do when only wearing flip flops.
