There's not usually a lot of laughter when the Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees get together, but there was some on Thursday night.

Red Sox designated hitter David Ortiz decided to have some fun with Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter, who was playing his final home game against Boston, by squaring to bunt in the first inning. With the shift on, Jeter had to sprint in to guard against the bunt. The whole situation had both Ortiz and Jeter cracking up.

Mo'ne Davis exploded into the national spotlight after she showed she could not only hang with the boys in the Little League World Series but also that she could dominate.

How bright does her star shine? Here she is giving an autograph to—not receiving one from—Los Angeles Dodgers All-Star Yasiel Puig.

Jackie Robinson West (Chicago) almost became the first Little League World Series winner from Illinois last week. Their amazing journey was stopped short by Seoul in the title game, but the honors have kept coming in.

On Monday, the team paid a visit to the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field. To their surprise, the Cubs players were wearing their jerseys.

MLB teams usually aren't afraid to utilize an infield shift for hitters who tend to pull the ball, but the Los Angeles Dodgers went a bit extreme with this one.

In the bottom of the 12th inning on Friday night with the bases loaded against the San Diego Padres, the Dodgers used a four-infielder shift, moving everyone to the right side of the infield. The move ended up paying off, with the Dodgers getting a fielder's choice at home for the second out to stay alive.

Mariners cross-checker Butch Baccala (the scout involved in this strange incident) denies provoking or taunting Montero on Thursday night.

When you see that former major league pitcher Randy Johnson is selling his Arizona mansion for $25 million, you may think that is a bit extreme. You'll understand that price tag once you see the pictures of the home.

Over the years, there have been many Major League Baseball players with special gifts. No player in MLB history has had a bigger advantage in a game than Eddie Gaedel.

On this date 63 years ago, the 3'7" Gaedel was sent to the plate to bat for the St. Louis Browns against the Detroit Tigers. Given the size of his strike zone, it's not hard to predict how the plate appearance turned out.

Boston police officer Steve Horgan became an icon during last year's MLB postseason, and now, the Red Sox have immortalized him with a bobblehead.

Last October, bullpen cop Horgan threw his arms in the air when David Ortiz tied Game 2 of the American League Championship Series against the Detroit Tigers with an eighth-inning grand slam.

The Boston Red Sox were dealt a 5-3 loss against the Houston Astros on Friday night, and one of the most impressive players on the Boston side might have actually come from the stands.

In the fourth and sixth innings, one fan was able to make barehanded catches, somehow collecting two souvenirs in one game.

Miss Texas 2014 Monique Evans, 22, got the unique opportunity to throw out the first pitch at a Texas Rangers game on Friday against the Los Angeles Angels.

Things didn't go as well as planned.

Evans ended up deciding to toss the ball underhand, but it didn't come anywhere close to the catcher, falling well short and looking more like a grounder.
