Always fun to watch college football Saturdays from the couch, but feels weird to not be covering Tulane Football today. They start their season in week 1, however I will not be at next Saturday’s opener.

Fortunately, I have some very exciting news to share 🔜

Stay tuned📺

Christopher Sanchez gave up his first run SINCE APRIL 30, snapping his 50 2/3 scoreless-innings streak 🤯

It's the fifth-longest such streak since 1893 and the longest EVER for a left-handed pitcher 🙌

For @DiamondHeels first baseman Erik Paulsen Jr, there would be no more emotional or finer tribute to his father than for the Heels to be playing in Omaha, Father's Day weekend 🩵

Gut wrenching loss for Georgia Tech. Team with so much firepower unable to finish it off at home in the regional round.

Team felt like they were destined for a long run to Omaha.

[Jason Spells @JasonSpells]

Walk-off 💣. Tough to see the season end like this for Georgia Tech.

[Taylor Tannebaum @TaylorTannebaum]

This Georgia Tech team was different. I’m stunned.

[ESPN Insights @ESPNInsights]

Of last year's eight teams at the Men's College World Series, half of them didn't make it to this year's tourney and the other half are already eliminated.

It's the first time since the tournament expanded in 1999 that all eight MCWS teams failed to make it to super regionals the following season.

A.J. Brown is bringing his best to New England 🏈

Since entering the league in 2019, Brown ranks top-5 in the NFL in receiving yards, receiving TDs and yards per reception 😤

[ESPN Insights @ESPNInsights]

UNHEARD OF 😱

Since the current format was adopted in 1999, there's never been a season with multiple regional 4-seeds making it to the Super Regionals ... until now 🔥

Victor Wembanyama is the first player in NBA history with 15+ threes and 15+ blocks in a playoff series 😤

[ESPN Insights @ESPNInsights]

39-year-old Mitch Johnson is just the third head coach in the last 50 years to win a conference or NBA Finals Game 7 at age 40 or younger.

He joins Billy Cunningham ('82 Sixers) and Tyronn Lue ('16 Cavs) 📋

[Ramona Shelburne @ramonashelburne]

There have been 7 different franchises to win the title over a 7-season span for the first time in NBA history. Either the Spurs or Knicks will make this 8 franchises over the last 8 seasons. The NBA has not seen a repeat champion since the Warriors in 2017-18. @StatsWilliams with the 🤯
