Sayan Dam has covered Major League Baseball as a Sportskeeda journalist since 2023. A geography graduate, Sayan discovered America's favorite pastime through anime during his high school days.

The excitement of every home run and strikeout ignited a passion within him for the diamond, and he started playing the MLB's Android games, further enhancing his interest.

While the New York Yankees were the first MLB team Sayan was introduced to, it's the LA Dodgers that hold a special place in his heart. They were the first team he saw lift the World Series (2020) when he began following the sport. Shohei Ohtani, Aaron Judge, Mike Trout and Clayton Kershaw are some of Sayan's favorite MLB players.

Sayan's main strength is his ability to keep his work objective and deliver to-the-point analysis of breaking stories.

When not watching baseball, Sayan likes to relax by watching anime. He also loves following the NBA, NFL and international chess events during his free time and is always eager to discuss sports with like-minded enthusiasts.
