What a night for Kyle Schwarber. 3 Schwarbombs! He has 3 HRs in a game with the Phils 4 times. That is the most in Phillies history since at least 1898. Kyle Schwarber is just the 9th player in baseball history since at least 1898 to have at least 5 career games with 3 or more home runs, joining Johnny Mize, Sammy Sosa, Mookie Betts, Dave Kingman, Joe Carter, Mark McGwire, Carlos Delgado and รlex Rodrรญguez. https://t.co/d0V2htrunT
My entire history of covering NASCAR, I've remembered a decision at the 2004 Martinsville race when the track came apart and Jeff Gordon's car was damaged by the concrete.
It was only my third race and I got up the nerve to ask a question in the postrace press conference regarding whether Gordon should get his spot back. I was told by a driver that was a stupid question.
Here we are all these years later and Corey Day is magically getting his four laps back after his car was damaged by the track. I know I'm an old fart and there's no such thing as precedent from 22 years ago, but this is breaking my brain. ๐ Maybe it wasn't a stupid question after all.
30 days until a NASCAR Cup Series POINTS race returns to the historic North Wilkesboro.
Engines will echo through the Brushy Mountains at NASCAR's oldest active track.
NASCAR Cup Series practice at Michigan best lap averages:
5-lap: Reddick, Elliott, Larson, Hamlin, Buescher
10-lap: Reddick, Elliott, Hamlin, Larson, Byron
15-lap: Byron (but only eight cars did at least a 15-lap run)
One of the wildest stories you may read today โฌ๏ธ
A couple accidentally showed up to a game with tickets to the next night's game
So they bought 2 more tickets and ended up catching Willy Adames' home run ball
Then they came back the next night with their original tickets, sitting nearly in the exact same spot as the night before ...
Then Adames hit another home run and they caught it AGAIN ๐คฏ
Take a moment to consider what we're watching.
