A’s Climb Back, Rockies Stick It to the Cubs & Tigers Get Rolling | BD Baseball June 12, 2026

Welcome back, Daylight Burners. Jake and I are back on BD Baseball and the season is heating up. The A’s got themselves a day off after climbing back toward .500, which is probably a good thing before the Rockies come to town this weekend. The Rockies, meanwhile, had one of those games where the box score tells you they should’ve been in it, and then you look up and they lost by six. Twelve hits, still got beat 9-3, because Seiya Suzuki hit a grand slam and the Cubs did Cubs stuff. And then there’s the Tigers. Detroit went absolutely stupid on Minnesota — six home runs, 11-0 final, and one of those games where you just start laughing at the box score. We’ll get into the A’s, Rockies, Tigers, the rest of Thursday’s MLB slate, the best arms, the best bats, and whatever rabbit holes Jake and I end up wandering down. BD Baseball. Ball talk, homer bias, and box scores that don’t always make a lick of sense. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
