I’ll forever root for Ghana simply because I have a Ghana jersey from the 2006 World Cup that I found at Goodwill in high school

Bryan Reynolds is 1 of only 4 hitters in MLB with at least a .400 OBP and 45 RBI’s!

The Pirates outfielder is putting together an All-Star caliber campaign 🏴‍☠️

[Platinum Key @PlatinumKey13]

At least the Pirates haven't struck out as badly as this guy just did

@mclax1 I’m a MSUFCU member and I don’t want to see that shit lol

There’s so many cool stories with the Knicks winning. I think the Nova guys getting a title together is the best one. What an incredible bond that Brunson, Bridges and Hart continue to have.

[Ethan Merrill @_ethanjmerrill]

Brutal, but that’s a young team. They’ll be back.

[Chris Vannini @ChrisVannini]

The Spurs led by 12+ in every game and led/tied in the final two minutes of every game.

Lost the series 4-1.

[Ethan Merrill @_ethanjmerrill]

The Knicks winning the title gives me confidence that the Pistons can get one in the next five or so years.

Ball game. Bullpen struggles again, giving up six runs in two innings.

Brandon Lowe hits his 17th HR of the year to right center field.

Dotel’s night is over with two outs in the seventh.

Antwone Kelly coming on to make his MLB debut.

[Ethan Merrill @_ethanjmerrill]

Nick Gonzales just misses snagging a line drive from Heriberto Hernandez for a single.

Then, Owen Cassie drives one off the center field wall for a two run double.

6-2 Marlins.

The bullpen has failed the Pirates again.

[Ethan Merrill @_ethanjmerrill]

A sac fly from Xavier Edwards gives Miami the lead in the seventh.

3-2 Marlins
