Sunday marked the start of baseball’s second week of the season. It’s hard to believe that it’s only been seven days with all of the news that has come out of the past week. The baseball world was introduced to Trevor Story, who now has seven home runs in his first six games. Matt Snyder helps to put his impact in perspective when he notes that Story has hit more home runs than 16 MLB teams combined!

The past seven days included the Diamondbacks and their new additions stumbling out of the gate. Kenta Maeda made an impressive debut on the mound and at the plate. Not only that, but on Friday night baseball fans were treated to their first serious no-hitter bid of the season. Even though he was unsuccessful, fans are now well aware of Ross Stripling.

There was a lot of news over the past week, and Sunday was no exception to that trend. The Rangers called up highly touted prospect Normar Maraza, and he made a big impact in his debut. The Cincinnati Reds continued to be one of the surprises of the baseball season, and they now sit at 5-1 in the NL Central. Sunday also provided fans the opportunity to watch Jake Arrieta mash a 440 ft. home run.

Those stories were fun to watch on Sunday, but what were the most important stories of the day? Let’s take a look at the good, the bad, and the ugly from MLB action on Sunday.
