Shakin the Southland authors have profiled 11 different candidates for the vacant head baseball coach position. Either Kevin O’Sullivan or Tim Corbin would be an obvious home run hire, but also somewhat unrealistic. Bradley LeCroy is well respected as an assistant and most would be happy to see him remain on the new staff, however it may not be ideal to simply promote him given all the exceptional external candidates…

The MLB offers an unusually full schedule this week, with all 30 teams playing all seven days. That crowds an often thin Monday slate for daily fantasy participants. After a fun weekend for aces not named Felix Hernandez, many low-level starters and former aces well past their primes take the rubber on Monday. Still, a few quality names are on the menu, and DraftKings gamers should seriously consider pairing…

And when Maddox, notoriously frugal, gazed around old Alex Box Stadium and saw the overflow crowd, an LSU first, he was overcome with budgetary emotion. …

Now it’s time to meet Byron Buxton, baseball’s No. 1 prospect, who was promoted by the Minnesota Twins on Saturday and will make his…

Sunday marked the second day of the 2015 College World Series in Omaha, Nebraska, and the opening game hardly appeared to be a battle between two of the country’s best baseball teams. The LSU Tigers didn’t play like the top-ranked team in the nation, suffering a 10-3 blowout loss at the hands of the TCU Horned Frogs. Thanks to their surprisingly dominant triumph, TCU moves on to face the…

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. — A rain shower briefly delayed the PIAA Class AAA championship Friday in the sixth inning. Not long after the tarp was pulled off the field, lightning struck and Knoch got just the jolt it needed.
