    Alexander: Another championship, sort of, for Los Angeles (opens the original)

    Excerpt · Positive tone · English

    Read excerpt

    • All hail the Los Angeles Queens, the city’s latest champion after winning Game 5 of the inaugural Women’s Professional Baseball League championship series Tuesday. Let’s say they earned a place in L.A. sports lore if for no other reason than beating San Francisco in the best-of-five championship series, albeit after letting a 2-0 series lead get away, and two days after getting shelled by the Firebells 17-4. Legends have been formed around here for far less. And yes, the Queens have their own

    Alexander: Wouldn’t another Dodgers-Padres playoff series be fun? (opens the original)

    • Would it drive fans in other cities even further out of their minds if the Dodgers wound up three-peating despite minimal contributions from their two big free-agent signings of last winter? … • Kyle Tucker (four years, $240 million all told, $55 million in 2026 including a $54 million signing bonus according to Cot’s Contracts), might be starting to wake up at the plate after struggling to justify that contract for the first six-plus months. In the past eight games going into Friday night’s s

    Alexander: Hey, Angels fans – remember this guy? (opens the original)

    Excerpt · English

    • Major league umpire Doug Eddings was back in the news this week, someplace where game officials in any sport really shouldn’t want to be. This time, Eddings upbraided young St. Louis Cardinals pitcher Hancel Rincon, insisting that he straighten his cap because no one was going to wear it at an angle on “my field.” (This was, incidentally, Rincon’s first big league appearance. And kudos to the other Cardinals who came out the next night all wearing their hats off-center in protest.) But Eddings

    Here is a reminder, and maybe this applies more to those who live elsewhere and love to take potshots at Southern California and its sports fans: There are 18 major league and power conference college teams (football and men’s and women’s basketball) in this market, representing the 18.3 million residents of Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino and Ventura counties. And as we’ve noted here often, standards are high in the most diverse sports market on the planet. You want to fill more
