Tonight’s MLB slate features the New York Yankees facing their rival, the Philadelphia Phillies, on the MLB Friday Night Baseball slate.

World Series contenders collide when the Phililes head to Yankee Stadium to take on the Yankees. Here's everything that you need to know about watching Friday's game.

Major League Baseball's trade deadline, scheduled for July 31, is now just a week away. In other words, it's that blessed (or cursed, depending on your perspective) time of the year when rumors and transactions dominate our coverage.

As the MLB trade deadline approaches, the Arizona Diamondbacks could have interest in two of their veteran starting pitchers.

If former MLB manager Joe Maddon were at the helm of the Yankees, the floundering Anthony Volpe would be heading back down to Triple-A. “I think there’s got to be some consideration, or thought, or talking about him possibly going back down,” Maddon said Thursday on MLB Network’s “MLB Now.”

The Philadelphia Phillies are wearing maroon caps that pay homage to the uniforms they wore from 1970-91 (including their 1980 World Series championship) by Hall of Famers such as Mike Schmidt and Steve Carlton. The hats, which are made by New Era, also feature the National Baseball Hall of Fame logo on the side.
