Daniel Castro hit a third-inning home run for the Atlanta Braves Friday night worth $1 million.

Or at least you’d think it was, based on the reaction of the fan who caught it.

The guy picked it up, danced, yelled, ignored high-fives, ran in place—it was human excitement at its purest.

The Houston Astros maintained a grip on the American League's second wild-card spot in prolific fashion Friday evening, scoring a franchise-record 21 runs in a 21-5 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks. 

To say that Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Jake Arrieta had a good second half to his season would be an understatement—a big one.

Chicago White Sox pitcher Chris Sale broke a franchise record with his 270th strikeout of the season on Friday night against the Detroit Tigers. 

Sale's record-breaking strikeout came against James McCann in the top of the second inning, passing Ed Walsh's club mark set in 1908.

The playoff-bound Chicago Cubs are trying to make things right after Bartman was made out to be some sort of villain in 2003. A GoFundMe account started by a fellow fan has emerged with a goal of $5,000 in mind. The purpose is to send Bartman to the NL Wild Card game against the Pittsburgh Pirates.

The Texas Rangers were eight games back of the Houston Astros for the AL West lead on Aug. 1, but a late-season run of epic proportions vaulted them back into the pennant chase and the postseason party for the first time since 2012.
