Tyler Loop has a bright future ahead. Tough miss but it happens. It will be a great learning experience for him. Tough, but one that he can use a fuel.
Powerful: Ravens HC John Harbaugh was comforting rookie kicker Tyler Loop after he missed the playoff-clinching field goal tonight, heading to the locker room.
Coach Harbaugh knows it's bigger than sports.
What a special moment captured 🥹❤️
On September 6, 1995, The Iron Man set a mark that stands as one of the most impressive records in the sport!
Tune in at 11am ET tomorrow on MLB Network to relive Cal Ripken Jr.'s historic 2,131st consecutive game.
We mourn the passing of Orioles Hall of Fame second baseman Davey Johnson, who earned three All-Star berths with the club and later managed the team to two Postseason appearances.
R.I.P. Davey Johson, mi foto de perfil de twitter, siempre con esa sonrisa mandibular característica, gran segunda base en la época dorada de Baltimore ganando tres guantes de oro y que además nos llevó a jugar la final de la liga americana en el 96 y 97. Múltiple ganador de Ws.
We are deeply saddened to learn of the passing of former Major League player and manager Davey Johnson.
In 8 years with the Orioles from 1965-72, Johnson was a 3-time All-Star, won 3 Gold Glove Awards, and was part of four AL pennant winners and two World Series champions (1966 & 1970).
He earned a 4th All-Star appearance with the Braves in 1973, the year he hit 43 home runs, which stood as the single-season record for a second baseman until 2021.
After two seasons with Japan’s Yomiuri Giants, Johnson finished his playing career in 1978 with the Phillies and Cubs.
Johnson managed the Mets from 1984-90 and led them to 5 consecutive 90-win seasons. The highlight of his Mets tenure was 1986, when the Mets won 108 games in the regular season and a World Series championship. The 7-game victory vs. the Red Sox is one of the most classic World Series in MLB history.
Johnson would go on to manage the Reds (1993-95), Orioles (1996-97), Dodgers (1999-2000) and Nationals (2011-2013). He won four division titles, twice winning Manager of the Year honors - once in the AL with the Orioles (1997) and again in the NL with the Nationals (2012). His career managerial record was 1,372-1,071 - a .562 winning percentage.
Johnson was 82 years old.
Sad to learn of the passing of my longtime teammate and friend, Davey Johnson. We came to the O’s the same year, 1965.. raised our families together, won 2 World Series together, learned the Oriole way together. Amazing life of helping others as a friend, teammate, and manager. My condolences to his wife , Susan…#RIP
