The objective of this paper is to identify the main syntactic characteristics examined in a corpus of 100 baseball headlines from the sports section, more specifically the Major League Baseball (MLB) section, of the daily newspaper The Guardian USA in its electronic version. Newspaper headlines are distinctive because they are brief texts that summarize the content of the article they precede. Baseball headlines in The Guardian USA respect these characteristics. Furthermore, they display specific syntactic features that are analyzed in this article. The main results of the study were firstly that this newspaper favors the use of verbal constructions in its headlines rather than non-verbal constructions. On the one hand, the present tense third person was the verbal construction most commonly used. On the other hand, in the non-verbal constructions, the most common headline was the one constituted by two noun phrases which were linked by a colon.
