@GarysheffieldJr In the early innings, you better be right!
It came back to haunt them. Out of challenges in the 8th, Jazz couldn't challenge a strike call that was clearly high. He nearly got tossed; then struck out.

[Cedric @CHC1969]

@NYFanInCT @BobbyMilone29 I honestly felt sorry for Jazz there.

@CNN Kalshi & Polymarket have been major sponsors at Madison Square Garden. If they are "illegal," why were they allowed to advertise? Will NY sue Polymarket?
In the end, it's all about money. When NY gets their cut, the lawsuits will magically disappear. More addicts incoming. Sad.

@TalkinYanks Sanchez & Caballero both going the other way with singles to RF. Great approach! It's not brain surgery. More of that please!

Alex Eala’s reaction after beating Naomi Osaka to become the 1st Filipina to reach a WTA 500 singles final

Nice moment between them at the net

Since June, she’s beaten Iga Swiatek, Elena Rybakina, Elina Svitolina, and now Naomi Osaka.

Supernova.

@SouthJerzGiants @GreggOlson30 Back in the 70's & 80's, JUGS was the "fast" radar gun & Speedgun was "slow."

Makes me recall legendary Dodgers scout Mike Brito. For decades he stood behind home plate at Dodger Stadium with a radar gun. The man with the Panama hat, smoking a cigar. One of the greats.

@TonyReali There are plenty of deserving teams.

But the Jets...

It's so hard to be a fan. 😥

The San Francisco Giants, as expected, say that Harrison Bader violated his contract and will no longer pay him until he can return to health after his late night scooter accident. Bader is being paid $10 million and still is owed $10 million next year.

[Cedric @CHC1969]

@Judyallbrite @AndrewMarchand It seems to have affected him. He has often been rambling (& sometimes incoherent) in recent years. When on his game, he's sharp & an engaging personality. Let's hope he gets help and comes back as strong as he was in his first season at CBS.

Two absolute Pittsburgh legends and real-life neighbors! Willie Stargell bringing that Hall of Fame warmth both on the field and on Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood. Unmatched 1970s wholesome energy!

BREAKING: FIFA President Gianni Infantino is not moving forward with his plan to sell a stake in the commercial assets of the World Cup due to backlash. The deal is dead.

[Cedric @CHC1969]

@AdamSchefter Get well Tony. It might explain his weird on-air comments the last few seasons. Hope he recovers & is better than before.

Umm… if you let someone go and bring them back after downsizing, it reflects poorly on management.

In the age of reducing costs, realizing you laid off an important person shows a lack of thought, and partly care, on part of ESPN leadership.

We are saddened to share that a seventh person has died from Legionnaires' on the Upper East Side. Our hearts are with their loved ones.

I've confirmed the SF Chronicle's report about Harrison Bader's scooter accident.

Additionally, witnesses tell me Bader was seen drinking at bars in San Francisco hours before the accident, in different neighborhoods. He was leaving Balboa Cafe when he was injured on the scooter around 2 a.m.

The team hasn't responded to requests for comment. @KPIXtv

[Phillies Tailgate @PhilsTailgate]

“According to a witness, Bader's scooter crashed into the back of a San Francisco Fire Department fire engine (SFFD Station 16 is on that block) the wheel of which then rolled over his foot, causing major injury.”

Twins were losing 3-0 with 2 outs & no one on in the 9th. Had only 1 hit.
Then...
HBP
Single (on a 2-2 pitch)
BB (from an 0-2 count; then survived a challenge on a 3-2 pitch)
An ultimate Grand Slam by Kody Clemens.

Unbelievable.
