Another bomb to lead off the bottom of the first!
I haven’t seen any PCA is overrated comments in quite some time. I wonder why?

Zavion Thomas was 5 yards past the DB after he stuttered on his route. Then he beat the safety, who had the angle on him. And he did it was ease. His speed is elite. I want to apologize to Ben Johnson and Ryan Poles for doubting this pick. I was foolish to question the vision.

What a magical season it has been for Pete Crow-Armstrong.

[Greg Harvey @BetweenTheNums]

Players in MLB HISTORY to have 12+ home runs, 6+ stolen bases & 16+ walks in a single calendar month:

Pete Crow-Armstrong - August 2026
Willie Mays - July 1955
Babe Ruth - May 1930, June 1920

That’s it.

Ryan Zeferjahn last 7 games:

7 G | 6.0 IP | 9.00 ERA | 9 H
6 ER | 4 BB | 7 K | 2.17 WHIP

On the #Angels, opponents hit .165 against him, and had just allowed 5 HR

Since joining the #Cubs, opponents have hit .346 with 2 HR allowed in 6 IP

Do the Cubs have a Zeferjahn problem?

[CHGO Cubs @CHGO_Cubs]

With that Strikeout-

Ian Happ now has 53 K’s in 125 ABs with RISP this season

Ed O'Neill reveals the exact day Neil Armstrong walked on the moon, he was cut by the Steelers, got blackout drunk with strangers in a dive bar, and was pulled over half naked by police at 3 AM

"I went in the bar, it was like 2:00 in the afternoon and there were a couple of locals. I order a beer, they got the TV up high on the wall, and the news comes on showing Armstrong walking on the moon. That's when I got cut. And I'm thinking, 'Well, somebody had a good day.'"

"Then they went to sports, and of course it's Pittsburgh so they go, 'Linebacker Ed O'Neill released today from the Steelers,' and that's my picture. These guys in the bar look and they go, 'You're Ed O'Neill!' And they said, 'Your money's no good here.' Now they're all buying me drinks."

"I end up at 3:00 in the morning in some car with some girl with a state trooper pulling me over. I don't even know my name at this point. I think I had my shirt off, almost naked, and I'm driving."

"He looks at my driver's license and says, 'Did you get cut today from Pittsburgh?' I said, 'Yep.' He said, 'Miss, can you drive?' She said, 'Yeah, I'll take him.' And he let me go, because in Pittsburgh, they love them Steelers. Even if you got cut, you're still part of the team."

Blackhawks legend Patrick Kane will be throwing out the first pitch at the Cubs/White Sox game tonight 🔥

[the Sports ON Tap @thesportsontap]

In 2008, an 18 year old minor leaguer in the Red Sox system was diagnosed with Hodgkin lymphoma.

He sat in a hospital room in Boston with his mother and told her that one day they were going to start a foundation.

Ten years later he cut the ribbon on a waiting room named after his family, in a children's cancer center he had given millions of dollars to.

Anthony Rizzo was a sixth round pick out of Florida. Nineteen games into his second professional season he got the diagnosis.

Six months of chemotherapy. He's been in remission since 2008.

Then he made the major leagues. He became a three time All-Star and one of the best first basemen in baseball, and in 2016 he caught the final out of the World Series that ended the Chicago Cubs' 108 year drought.

And the entire time, he kept the promise he made in that hospital room.

For years, Rizzo visited Ann and Robert H. Lurie Children's Hospital in Chicago about once a month. Not for cameras. He rarely told the media he was going, because he didn't want the visit to be about him.

Then in 2017 his foundation gave the hospital $3.5 million.

He was very specific about where it went. Two endowed funds. One pays for oncology Child Life specialists, a role funded entirely by philanthropy. The other gives grants directly to families facing financial hardship, covering things like insurance copays, meals, parking, transportation, rent, utility bills and childcare for siblings.

Because Rizzo understands something about pediatric cancer that people who haven't lived it don't.

His words: "I believe that an individual does not battle cancer alone. His or her entire family does. That's why we've designated this money to go directly to help families on the front lines."

At the ribbon cutting for the waiting room, patients and families lined the hallway holding signs to thank him.

He broke down.

"I remember sitting with my mom saying we were going to do this ten years ago."

And then: "Today was a day when I had flashbacks about sitting in the waiting rooms and going through the treatments and being sick. I don't do that much, but today was one of the days when it got to me."

His total giving to that one hospital passed $4 million, and his foundation delivered another $2 million to the same programs the following year.

There's one family in particular worth mentioning. The Rizzos helped pay a family's medical bills AND their mortgage when they couldn't make the payments, and sent the mother and her three kids to Disney World.

Her assessment of him: for all the kids and families in that hospital, he's far more than an All-Star and a World Series champion. He's someone their kids look up to. He gives them hope.

Joe Maddon, his manager, said it best: it's one thing to give money, but he's always there, and he doesn't get enough recognition for it.

In 2017 Rizzo won the Roberto Clemente Award, baseball's highest honor for character and community.

His message to the kids he visits is four words.

Stay strong, dream big.

He was one of them.
