Major League Baseball's Spring Breakout made its debut in 2024. It will return this year between March 13-16. The concept gives every team an opportunity to showcase their top prospects, as only rookie-eligible players can compete.

Paul DeJong hit a two-run home run to lead the Washington Nationals in a 4-3 win over the Houston Astros in spring training play.

The Washington Nationals dropped the first game of their spring training schedule with a 3-0 loss to the Houston Astros.

Jose Altuve made his second start for the Houston Astros on Sunday. Unlike his first start, he was challenged to make plays defensively.
