Lance McCullers gets 24-hour security after online death threats, some aimed at 5-year-old daughter
HOUSTON (AP) — Soon after Lance McCullers Jr.'s family received online death threats following a tough start by the Houston Astros' pitcher, his 5-year-old daughter, Ava, overheard wife Kara talking on the phone about it. What followed was a painful conversation between McCullers and his little girl. 'She asked me when I came home: 'Daddy like what is threats? Who wants to hurt us? Who wants to hurt me?'' McCullers told The Associated Press on Wednesday. 'So, those conversations are tough to deal with.' McCullers is one of two MLB pitchers whose families have received online death threats this month as internet abuse of players and their families is on the rise. Boston reliever Liam Hendriks took to social media soon after the incident with McCullers to call out people who were threatening his wife's life and directing 'vile' comments at him .

(AP Photo/Charles Krupa) AP AUDIO: Lance McCullers gets 24-hour security after online death threats, some aimed at 5-year-old daughter AP correspondent Mike Hempen reports two major league pitchers dealing with online abuse are taking action. The Astros contacted MLB security and the Houston Police Department following the threats to McCullers. An police spokesperson said Thursday that it remains an ongoing investigation. McCullers, who has two young daughters, took immediate action after the threats and reached out to the team to inquire about what could be done to protect his family. Astros owner Jim Crane stepped in and hired 24-hour security for them. It was a move McCullers felt was necessary after what happened. 'You have to at that point,' he said.

(AP Photo/Karen Warren) Abuse increasing with rise in sports gambling Players from around the league agree that online abuse has gotten progressively worse in recent years. Milwaukee's Christian Yelich, a 13-year MLB veteran and the 2018 NL MVP, said receiving online abuse is 'a nightly thing' for most players. 'I think over the last few years it's definitely increased,' he said. 'It's increased to the point that you're just: 'All right, here we go.' It doesn't even really register on your radar anymore. I don't know if that's a good or a bad thing. You're just so used to that on a day-to-day, night-to-night basis. It's not just me. It's everybody in here, based on performance.' Milwaukee Brewers' Christian Yelich gestures after hitting a walk off grand slam during the 10th inning of a baseball game against the Boston Red Sox, Tuesday, May 27, 2025, in Milwaukee. (AP Photo/Aaron Gash) And many players believe it's directly linked to the rise in legalized sports betting. 'You get a lot of DMs or stuff like that about you ruining someone's bet or something ridiculous like that,' veteran Red Sox reliever Justin Wilson said. 'I guess they should make better bets.' Hendriks has had enough Hendriks, a 36-year-old reliever who previously battled non-Hodgkin lymphoma, said on Instagram that he and his wife received death threats after a loss to the Mets. He added that people left comments saying that they wished he would have died from cancer among other abusive comments. He later discussed the issue and his decision to speak out about it. 'Enough is enough,' he said. 'Like at some point, everyone just like sucking up and dealing with it isn't accomplishing anything. And we pass along to security. We pass along to whoever we need to, but nothing ends up happening. And it happens again the next night. And so, at some point, someone has to make a stand. And it's one of those things where the more eyes we get on it, the more voices we get talking about it. Hopefully it can push it in the right direction.' What teams are doing Both the Astros and the Red Sox are working with MLB security to take action against social media users who direct threats toward players and their families. Red Sox spokesperson Abby Murphy added that they've taken steps in recent years to make sure player' families are safe during games. That includes security staff and Boston police stationed in the family section at home and dedicated security in the traveling party to monitor the family section on the road. Murphy said identifying those who make anonymous threats online is difficult, but: 'both the Red Sox and MLB have cyber programs and analysts dedicated to identifying and removing these accounts.' The Astros have uniformed police officers stationed in the family section, a practice that was implemented well before the threats to McCullers and his family. Abandoning social media For some players, online abuse has gotten so bad that they've abandoned social media. Detroit All-Star outfielder Riley Greene is one of them, saying he got off because he received so many messages from people blaming him for failed bets. 'I deleted it,' he said of Instagram. 'I'm off it. It sucks, but it's the world we live in, and we can't do anything about it. People would DM me and say nasty things, tell me how bad of a player I am, and say nasty stuff that we don't want to hear.' Criticism is part of the game, threats are not The 31-year-old McCullers, who returned this year after missing two full seasons with injuries, said dealing with this has been the worst thing that's happened in his career. He understands the passion of fans and knows that being criticized for a poor performance is part of the game. But he believes there's a 'moral line' that fans shouldn't cross. 'People should want us to succeed,' he said. 'We want to succeed, but it shouldn't come at a cost to our families, the kids in our life, having to feel like they're not safe where they live or where they sit at games.' Houston manager Joe Espada was livid when he learned about the threats to McCullers and his family and was visibly upset when he addressed what happened with reporters. Espada added that the team has mental health professionals available to the players to talk about the toll such abuse takes on them and any other issues they may be dealing with. 'We are aware that when we step on the field, fans expect and we expect the best out of ourselves,' Espada said this week. 'But when we are trying to do our best and things don't go our way while we're trying to give you everything we got and now you're threatening our families and kids — now I do have a big issue with that, right? I just did not like it.' Kansas City's Salvador Perez, a 14-year MLB veteran, hasn't experienced online abuse but was appalled by what happened to McCullers. If something like that happened to him he said it would change the way he interacts with fans. Kansas City Royals designated hitter Salvador Perez, right, celebrates his RBI single against the Minnesota Twins during the fifth inning of baseball game Saturday, May 24, 2025, in Minneapolis. (AP Photo/Matt Krohn) 'Now some fans, real fans, they're gonna pay for that, too,' he said. 'Because if I was him, I wouldn't take a picture or sign anything for noboby because of that one day.' McCullers wouldn't go that far but admitted it has changed his mindset. 'It does make you kind of shell up a little bit,' he said. 'It does make you kind of not want to go places. I guess that's just probably the human reaction to it.' Finding a solution While most players have dealt with some level of online abuse in their careers, no one has a good idea of how to stop it. 'I'm thankful I'm not in a position where I have to find a solution to this,' Tigers' pitcher Tyler Holton said. 'But as a person who is involved in this, I wish this wasn't a topic of conversation.' White Sox outfielder Mike Tauchman is disheartened at how bad player abuse has gotten. While it's mostly online, he added that he's had teammates that have had racist and homophobic things yelled at them during games. 'Outside of just simply not having social media I really don't see that getting better before it just continues to get worse,' he said. 'I mean, I think it's kind of the way things are now. Like, people just feel like they have the right to say whatever they want to whoever they want and it's behind a keyboard and there's really no repercussions, right?' ___ AP Baseball Writer Mike Fitzpatrick and AP Sports Writers Jimmy Golen, Kyle Hightower, Larry Lage and Steve Megargee contributed to this report. ___ AP MLB:

'Gibby, meet Freddie' revisited: Joe Davis on broadcasting and calling an epic World Series
Joe Davis isn't sure if it will ever fully sink in that his voice, much like Vin Scully's on Kirk Gibson's iconic blast, will forever be the soundtrack to one of the biggest moments in World Series history. Even seven months later, it still does not feel real. "I'm still the kid from Potterville, Michigan, who dreamt of doing this," the MLB on FOX broadcaster said earlier this week. But the more time that passes, the more Davis recognizes the magnitude of what transpired in Los Angeles on the evening of Oct. 25, 2024, when Freddie Freeman — 36 years after Gibson made the impossible happen — wrote a new chapter in Dodgers lore with his Game 1 walk-off grand slam. When people see Davis now, Freeman's hit and his call — "Gibby, meet Freddie" — are what they want to talk about. The same way that Freeman grew up dreaming of coming through in a moment like that, Davis grew up dreaming of narrating it. "The more distance I get from it, the greater appreciation I have for where the moment — and forget what I said or the call or anything — just where the moment stands in baseball history," Davis said. "It was impossible to fully appreciate that in the immediate aftermath, but the more distance I get from it, the more mind-blowing it is that I got to be in the chair for that moment. I'm, more and more, appreciating what that moment was." With the Dodgers and Yankees reuniting this weekend for the first time since the Fall Classic, and with FOX Sports celebrating its 30th season of MLB coverage this year, Davis discussed the call, the aftermath, Gibson's reaction, how he critiques and learns from his broadcasts, why a picture in his office reminds him that every night could be the one people talk about forever and much more. (Note: Some questions and answers may be edited for brevity and clarity.) Has it hit you yet that the same way we associate Vin's call on the Gibson homer, your voice and your call now will forever be linked to one of the biggest moments in World Series history? JD: "I don't know if it ever will. I swear, man. And I think that that's a good thing. That's kind of how I want it. I never want, and I talk to my kids about this all the time, too, let's never take for granted how cool it is to have the things we have and to do the things we do. I think that's a great example of that, where I can kind of practice what I preach to my kids. I'm still the kid from Potterville, Michigan, who dreamt of doing this. "In the same way Freddie stepped into the box and might not have thought to himself, 'This is the moment I've prepared my whole life for,' but you ask him now, yeah, that's the moment every baseball player dreams of having. I even said that right before he stepped in, on the broadcast, in the same way that that was the moment that he grew up dreaming of, as he stepped into the box, that's the moment I grew up dreaming of, too. So I don't lose that perspective. Because of that, it's hard to really wrap my mind around logically where that moment stands and what it means to be tied to that moment. I don't allow any of it to feel real. It's too crazy, too preposterous, for me to really allow it to feel real, even with the distance that we have." You mentioned using this moment kind of as a life lesson for your kids. As they get older, do they have an understanding for how big that moment was and an appreciation for what their dad got to do? JD: "Well they have the T-shirt, the 'Gibby, meet Freddie' T-shirt. Charlotte turns 9 in a couple weeks. Blake is 6, and Theo turns 4 on July 1. I think they see me get recognized a little bit more, and still it's often followed by the question, 'You know him?' More and more, they're like, 'Wait, no, they know you, don't they, Dad?' So, I think they see a little bit more of that. My daughter, she's always been mature for her age, so even when I got the World Series job in the first place, she seemed to have an appreciation — she was in like kindergarten at this point — she seemed to grasp what it meant to daddy to live his life dream. My son, the 6-year-old, is baseball obsessed. So, he gets what a big deal it is that I get to do the World Series. He gets it from that perspective. But I always tell them, too, 'Hey guys, this stuff's cool, but I'm just your dad. This is something I do, but this is not who I am. This stuff is amazing, we're so lucky that we have it, but I'm just your goofy daddy, right?' And the other thing is, they get it with their friends at school, 'I saw your dad on TV," and Blake's Little League teammates and things like that. But it's possible to embrace it and love it and realize how fortunate we are while at the same time be like, 'It's no big deal.' That's what we try to do." Everyone remembers the "Gibby, meet Freddie" part. I don't know if everyone caught the "she is gone" nod to Vin before it as well. It seemed like a pretty perfect call, but as someone who I'm sure is a perfectionist with this sort of thing, and now with months to reflect, is there anything you would have done differently? JD: "It's a great question. I stayed up, not through the night but lost a little sleep laying there asking myself that question —and this got blown out of proportion a little bit I think in the immediate aftermath when I did an interview talking about this — going back and critiquing it in my head. I'm always going to do that. That didn't mean I went back and was like, 'You stink, that wasn't good.' I just, I'm always going back trying to think about how maybe it could have been a little bit better. In the immediate aftermath, the one thing I had thought to myself was I know on Vin's call of the Gibby home run, his line that everybody talks about — 'In a year that has been so improbable' — that came after Gibby had rounded the bases. It was just, 'She is gone," and then a long layoff while he rounded the bases and even began the celebration at home, and then came Vin's line. So I thought to myself for a bit, went back and rewatched it, rewatched it, rewatched it, should 'Gibby, meet Freddie' have waited? Did I talk over the crowd? Did I talk over the moment? But that's just how I always am on my calls, whether it's that or something that happens this time of year. I go back and have fun looking at it that way, kind of picking it apart. I think what I decided is that having it right there, having the 'Gibby meet Freddie' line follow the 'She is gone,' it probably worked that way. Not that it wouldn't have worked otherwise." So, do you go back often then to listen and learn from your calls? Or, with so many games in a baseball season, do you prefer to kind of put it away afterward? JD: "Every night I watch the highlights, just to calibrate where I'm at energy level on them. I may, just to see, 'OK, I felt like I was really getting to the level I needed to be on Ohtani's home run today.' So, let's play the highlight while I still have that feeling fresh and let's see if it matched up. Let's see if the way I felt making that call translated, and if I was maybe a little flat or over the top, I take the memory of that feeling and try to apply it the next day. So I do the highlights each day, and I try to — once every week to 10 days — go back and do a deeper critique of myself and go back and listen to several innings of a game and take notes down, and I'll bring that piece of paper with those notes on what I want to work on, what I want to focus on and have that sit right in front of me for the next week up until I do the next critique." Freddie talked about this right after it happened. You have this big moment, but you need to win three more games or no one's going to care anymore. For you, you have this big moment, you mention you're laying in bed thinking about it, how do you unwind after something like that? And how odd is it to then immediately have to turn the page to another game? JD: "Yeah, so it was unique because it came in L.A., which is where I live. And I went back to my house, whereas usually in this business we're going back to the hotel. I went back to my house, and in my office there's one piece of artwork, and it is a picture of the moment Kirk Gibson leaves the on-deck circle to head up for his game-winning home run in '88. And you can see in the backdrop the umpire reaching into his shirt to pull out the line-up card and make the change, and the bigger backdrop is just the wall of people at Dodger Stadium. I've had it in my office as long as I've had my office, because it represents everything I love about the job. The next moment could be the moment. Big crowd in the background, thinking about the noise they make. So, I love that picture, and it's always been there. But to come back home and walk into my office, thinking like, 'Wow what just happened?' I hadn't thought about it on the drive home, what I was going to see when I sat down in my home office. But I sat down and looked up and was like, 'Oh man, that's right. Holy cow, that just happened again… I was there when it happened.' I didn't sleep great that night just because of the energy of having done that game. And then to your point, I'm up early the next day, 'OK, let's get ready for Game 2. This is amazing, but now let's go get ready for Game 2, and what's going to happen tonight?' But that's the core of what I love about this job, getting ready for the next game not knowing what you're going to see, knowing tonight could be the night you talk about forever each time." Do you know what Gibson thought about the call? Or what's the coolest feedback you've gotten since that moment? JD: "Oh, man, people have been so nice. Texted with Freddie that night, just the kind of guy he is, he probably had 9,000 text messages but he thought to text me. I talked to [Gibby on] Opening Day when he was there, and I actually had a couple people who had talked to him to do stories on the connection who had talked to him who then reached out to me and said, 'Hey, you should know, Gibby really thought your call was cool.' That's up there as far as the most special things I heard coming out of that, the fact that Gibby appreciated the call and took some enjoyment out of it. That was really neat." What are the difficulties that come with calling a World Series when you've been the broadcaster all year for one of the teams involved? JD: "The hardest part is kind of unlearning, or at least rewiring, everything I know about the team I cover every day. Because the way of presenting that team is totally different when you get to the national audience, especially in the postseason and the World Series, than it would be covering a regular season game. So reframing in my mind how I know that information and present that information takes time. Yeah, it's not a fun thing that everybody thinks you hate their team, but it's part of the territory. Then it gets amplified when one of the teams you cover on an everyday basis. So, I think that part of it, it stinks, but it's as big of a deal as you allow it to become, and I think the only way I know how to handle it is sort of bury my head in the sand on it. I know no matter who the teams are, it comes with the territory that half the audience is going to think you don't like their team and half the audience is going to think you don't like their team, and that's OK, right? These are the biggest games, where emotions are heightened. And it's what makes sports great, that people care that much. And, you know what, fine, if that's the tax you gotta pay to do this gig, I'm totally fine with it." I've gone too long without congratulating you on winning a sports Emmy for your play-by-play work. Now I've got to ask, winning an Emmy or having that World Series moment, what's the bigger accomplishment? JD: "Ooo, I don't know. I don't know if I win that Emmy if that moment doesn't happen. That's something in this business, specific to play-by-play announcing, there's a certain amount of luck in it in that the moment has to happen in front of you. I can't create that moment. I just have to be the lucky son of a gun that's sitting there when it happens to happen. Like we said earlier, what is going to go down as one of the great moments in sports history, I just happened to be the guy lucky enough to be sitting there." Lastly, I know calling a World Series was a dream of yours. You've obviously accomplished that. Is there anything left now on the Joe Davis bucket list? JD: "I'm doing everything I dreamt of doing and more. For me, it's just been some soul searching for how to keep pushing and growing within what I'm doing. For so much of my life, it's been these big dreams and striving to get there. Now that I've gotten to where I've always dreamt of going, how do I, within the confines of those jobs, bring people joy? How do I make each night something that people look forward to tuning into? Baseball's such a wonderful thing because it's every day, and it's something people can count on. I just spend a lot of time thinking about how I can, in my role, look at that as a responsibility to make people smile and bring them some joy, bring them a distraction if they need it, give them something to look forward to. Whatever little role I can play in their lives like that, I think that's a pretty special gift that my job has in it for me. That's something that, no matter how long I do this, I can keep leaning into and can give meaning to this job. So, no, there is nothing else I want to do. I just want to keep doing what I'm doing right now and be the best I can be at it." Experience the excitement of the Los Angeles Dodgers' unforgettable 2024 postseason journey. From their intense showdown with the San Diego Padres in the NLDS, to their clash with the New York Mets in the NLCS, and culminating in their epic World Series battle against the New York Yankees, the Dodgers' run is etched in history as one of the most legendary in MLB playoff lore.

Mariners set to promote top-50 prospect Cole Young: Source
Fresh off two heartbreaking extra-innings losses, the Seattle Mariners are calling up infield prospect Cole Young from Triple A, a team source confirmed. Young, the No. 21 pick in the 2022 MLB Draft, was ranked No. 36 in Keith Law's latest top 50 MLB prospect ranking. The news was first reported by Advertisement Young, 21, is a left-handed hitting shortstop who has also played a significant number of games at second base. According to the team source, that will be the spot where he gets most of his playing time, at least initially, as the Mariners have been struggling to find a permanent solution at second after losing Ryan Bliss to a left biceps tear on April 8. Young, an excellent defensive player, has a career .388 OBP in 321 minor-league games. The 5-foot-11, 180-pounder isn't known for his power, but he has been in the middle of a red-hot streak for Triple-A Tacoma. For the month of May, he slashed .366/.467/.673 with five home runs and a 16:8 K:BB. Overall, he's batting .277/.392/.461 this season. 'Young should see the majors sooner rather than later, with the Mariners getting so little OBP from five lineup spots,' Law wrote in the top-50 ranking. 'He's had a power surge this month, mostly from playing road games in some of the PCL's higher-altitude parks, but his OBP … and high contact rate are consistent with his track record from the lower levels, and that alone would help Seattle's lineup. He's only played shortstop and second, the latter his better position, so they'd have to shift some guys around to fit him in. Regardless of where he plays, though, I think he's ready or very close to it.' Seattle began the season with MLB's top farm system in Law's preseason rankings. Young is the first of their elite prospects to join their MLB roster. The Mariners have six players in the current top 50 ranking, with shortstop Colt Emerson at No. 6, shortstop Felnin Celesten at No. 21, Young at 36, right-hander Ryan Sloan at No. 41 and outfielder Jonny Farmelo at 49. Catcher Harry Ford, outfielder Lazaro Montes and infielder Michael Arroyo didn't make the newest top 50 ranking but were on Law's preseason top 100 list. The Mariners enter Saturday's games a half-game behind the Houston Astros for first place in the American League West. They rank sixth in baseball in home runs (thanks in large part to catcher Cal Raleigh, who leads the AL with 21) but rank 10th in runs scored and 12th in OBP. Seattle second basemen have been in the middle of the pack in OPS for the position at .720.
