Cubs Strengthen Catching Roster with Matt Thaiss Trade

The Chicago Cubs have acquired catcher Matt Thaiss from the Los Angeles Angels in exchange for cash considerations, adding depth to their roster after previously having only one catcher. Thaiss, originally an infielder, has struggled offensively and defensively in his MLB career, with a batting average of .208 and limited experience as a catcher. The Cubs designated Trey Wingenter for assignment to make room for Thaiss, who is seen as a potential partner for Miguel Amaya. Further roster moves may still occur.

"MLB Highlights: Red Sox Secure Comeback Victory Against Angels in Game 15"

Raimel Tapia, the Boston Red Sox's fourth outfielder, had a hilarious response to a wacky inning during the team's victory over the Los Angeles Angels. The inning saw Angels catcher Matt Thaiss called for two catcher's interference penalties, resulting in three Red Sox runs. Tapia hit a rocket off the bat that would have made a hole in the Green Monster if Thaiss hadn't interfered with him. Despite being a limited at-bat player, Tapia has been batting .333 with one home run and three RBIs this season.

"Angels suffer loss to Red Sox due to catcher's interference and unexpected breaks"

The Angels lost 9-7 to the Red Sox after backup catcher Matt Thaiss allowed two critical catcher's interference calls in the eighth inning. Thaiss admitted he was too close to the plate the first time, and then "didn't make an adjustment to get back a couple inches." Left-hander Tyler Anderson had a sloppy outing, allowing six runs in four innings. The Angels trailed when he left, but they had retaken the lead before it all unraveled with Ryan Tepera on the mound in the eighth. The Angels came up empty in the ninth, ending the roller-coaster game.
