Major League Baseball is making a significant equity investment in the Athletes Unlimited Softball League, the companies announced Thursday, a wide-ranging partnership leading into the start of AUSL’s inaugural season as a team-based league on June 7. While MLB helped revive National Pro Fastpitch via a marketing partnership in 2002 — a league that ran from 2004-2021 — it hasn’t made an investment in another sports league quite like this, per a source close to the league.

The celebratory chaos in the vicinity outside Madison Square Garden last Friday night was gloriously unhinged.

The Sunday of Memorial Day weekend is traditionally the most important day of the year on the motorsports calendar. In the morning in the U.S., Formula 1 fans can have breakfast with the iconic Monaco Grand Prix, the crown jewel of the sport’s calendar. Then, you can tune in to the legendary Indianapolis 500, the reason why IndyCar is called the way it is. For the nightcap, NASCAR fans hunker down for the Coca-Cola 600, the longest race of the season held in Charlotte since 1960.

One of England’s most storied clubs, founded in 1879, the Black Cats won six first division titles from 1892-1936 and have one of the country’s most loyal and vocal followings.
