A fan of the Los Angeles Dodgers, in April 2007, Milano began writing a baseball blog on the Major League Baseball’s website. That year she reported at Fenway Park during the ALDS between the Boston Red Sox and the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim.

The same year, she launched her signature “Touch” line of team apparel for female baseball fans, selling it through her blog on Major League Baseball’s website. It also became available in 2009 through a boutique store located in Citi Field, the home of the New York Mets. She has an interest in the Los Angeles Kings, a National Hockey League team, and is involved with a related clothing line. In 2008, she expanded that to NFL football, as a New York Giants fan. Since Milano is from the same hometown as NFL Network’s Rich Eisen, she revealed some of her family’s connections with the Giants. In 2013, Milano expanded “Touch” into NASCAR.

On March 20, 2009 it was announced that Milano voiced Dr. Ilyssa Selwyn in Ghostbusters: The Video Game. In a 2010 interview she told the press that she had ‘a blast’ working on the game, although she recalled it being ‘odd’ having to grunt in a room alone.

On March 24, 2009, her book on her baseball fandom, Safe At Home: Confessions of a Baseball Fanatic, was released. Milano has signed on to star in and produce My Girlfriend’s Boyfriend, a romantic comedy in which she plays a woman with a relationship dilemma.

Milano produced and led the cast of Lifetime’s TV film Sundays at Tiffany’s.[52] which was her second collaboration with Lifetime, after Wisegal (2008). Milano starred in two comedy films, Hall Pass and New Year’s Eve. In 2013, Milano created the comic book series Hacktivist, which was written by Jackson Lanzing and Collin Kelly, drawn by Marcus To, and published by Archaia Entertainment. The book, which explores the modern world of hacking and global activism, is described as “a fast-paced cyber-thriller about friendship and freedom in a time of war.” The publication was released digitally in late 2013, while the first print edition issue of the four-issue miniseries was published in January 2014. A hardcover edition collecting all four issues was released in July 2014.

In June 2013, she played Savannah Davis in ABC drama series Mistresses, which is about the scandalous lives of four girlfriends, but she left the show after season two, due to conflict between filming location and family issue. She signed on as host and judge Project Runway: All Stars beginning with season three. On March 2, 2015, Milano was a guest host on The Talk. In 2017 Alyssa Milano will join the cast of Netflix’s comedy series Wet Hot American Summer: Ten Years Later
