The number: 17 This may be one of the most amazing stats of the year: 17 different pitchers recorded a save for the Diamondbacks. Yes, that's a record (the 2021 Rays and 2024 Dodgers each had 14). It wasn't by design, of course. A.J. Puk started the season as Arizona's closer and got injured after eight appearances and four saves. Justin Martinez picked up five saves before injuring his elbow. Shelby Miller earned 10 saves

The defending World Series champion Los Angeles Dodgers opened the 2025 MLB season in Japan on March 18. Now, 220 days later, they meet the Toronto Blue Jays in Game 1 of the Fall Classic. Will the Dodgers be the first team to repeat as champs since the New York Yankees at the turn of the century? Or will the underdog Blue Jays win their first title since 1993?

In the midst of the team's winningest stretch in 2025, White Sox outfielder Will Robertson made a play that will go down among the best of the season. It came in a crucial moment, too. As the White Sox clung to a one-run lead in the bottom of the sixth, Detroit Tigers slugger Spencer Torkelson made hard contact with Davis Martin's sinker. If it weren't for Robertson, Torkelson would have hit his 29th home run of the season and tied the game.

Kiké Hernández was placed on the 10-day injured list due to left elbow inflammation, which has hindered his batting despite not affecting his defense.

The Giants' lineup has struggled mightily, managing to score effectively in only 4 of their last 14 games, showcasing a continued inability to convert their offensive opportunities.

"If the season were to end today, Narvaez would likely be the American League Rookie of the Year runner-up behind Athletics shortstop Jacob Wilson."

"I needed to get back to 'Sandy Mode,' Alcantara said postgame. "Velocity, groundballs, strike one, and more attacking."
