      A-Rod Stays, Thanks to Wall St.

One of Wall Street's power elite convinced A-Rod to sign a new contract as early as today, reports the Wall Street Journal . Gerry Cardinale, an executive at Goldman Sachs, which owns a big stake in the Yankees' television network, YES, negotiated the deal. More »

      Rangers Rack Up Record 30 Runs

      The Rangers punished the Orioles 30-3 last night in MLB's first 30-run performance in 110 years, the AP reports. Though short of the big-league record for most runs in a game--Chicago routed Louisville 36-7 on Jun 28, 1897--Texas' mark is the best in American League history. The Rangers' 29 hits were also the most since the Brewers smashed 31 on Aug 28, 1992. More »

      Santana Strikes Out 17 to Down Texas

      Twins ace Johan Santana struck out a franchise-record 17 batters to lead Minnesota past the Rangers 1-0 yesterday. Santana, who was perfect for the first half of his eight-inning outing, got all the offense he needed with a solo shot from teammate Michael Cuddyer. The game was otherwise momentous for the Twins, who climbed to 8 back in the American League Wildcard race. More »

      Bush Gets a Line on Bonds

      Barry Bonds took 21 years to set the career home run record, so the half-day delay in President Bush's congratulatory phone call probably seems like the blink of an eye. The call went out from the White House this afternoon, the Chicago Tribune reports, and Tony Snow attributed the delay to conflicting sleep schedules. More »

      Teixeira Has Brave New Start

      Slugger Mark Teixeira was a smash in his first Atlanta performance last night, chalking up a three-run blast to lead the Braves to a 12-3 win over Houston. Teixeira, whom Atlanta nabbed in a multi-player deal with Texas this week, was 1-4 with a walk and 4 RBIs, an inaugural performance good enough to bring a full house of 30,000 to its feet. More »

      Sox Stun Yankees, Grab Gagne

      The Yankees had hoped to nab ace reliever Eric Gagne from the Texas Rangers; instead, he signed with their AL-East rivals yesterday, breaking a no-trade clause with the division-dominating Red Sox. The Sox, who handed Gagne a $2.1M signing bonus, bought insurance for a bullpen which already includes All-Stars Jonathan Papelbon and Hideki Okajima. More »

      Exit Texas for Teixeira?

      The Braves are close to a deal with the Rangers for slugger Mark Teixeira, who will correct a power outage at first base. The Rangers will receive a handful of prospects, including majors-ready catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchia. With Brian McCann installed long-term behind the plate, the Braves could afford to lose the much-sought-after rookie. More »

      Sosa Slams No. 600

      Sammy Sosa homered for the 600th time last night, becoming just the fifth man to hit the storied mark. As the Texas Ranger rounded the bases in Arlington, the theme from "The Natural" played and the scoreboard pictured the other men who've reached the milestone—Hank Aaron, Barry Bonds, Babe Ruth, and Willie Mays.

      Texas Owner: Juan-Gone &quot;Probably&quot; Doped

      Texas owner Tom Hicks says he suspected slugger Juan Gonzalez had used steroids, judging from his body's early and expeditious breakdown. Hicks bemoaned his $24 million, two-year investment, which resulted in 152 games and 32 home runs during 2002-03. "We just gave that money away," he said. More »
