What’s that viral quote referenced in Ted Lasso time and time again? “It’s the hope that kills you?” Unfortunately, White Sox fans know that all too well, although even hope has been hard to come by in recent years. In those recent years, the moment the White Sox fell behind the game was virtually over. […]

By Norm Frauenheim Home can be just about anywhere, especially if it only includes a couple of stools and is surrounded by ropes. What can go wrong? Plenty, of course. But Jesse “Bam” Rodriguez has found only success in what he calls a second home. Rodriguez, who grew up in San Antonio, is about to […]

No major league player has ever woken up on Lagwagon Day with 20 home runs to his name on the season…until tomorrow.

Dominating the Miami Marlins is a great way to open MLB’s second annual Rivalry Weekend for the Tampa Bay Rays. Speaking of opening, Ian Seymour did exactly what an opener is supposed to do in the first inning. He got Xavier Edwards to pop out, struck out Liam Hicks, and handled Otto Lopez with a […]
There are some huge names that could be traded around the NBA this offseason. Generally speaking, Giannis Antetokounmpo is pretty readily accepted by all to be the top target among the superstars that could be available. The two-time MVP and Finals MVP is a game-changer, and franchise-changer, when healthy. Ah, but those final two words of the previous paragraph are the key: When healthy. Because of the injury troubles that surrounded Giannis this past season (only 36 games played), one Easter...
The Mets fell to the Yankees 5-2 in the opening game of this Subway Series at Citi Field. On a night when young flamethrower Cam Schlittler was facing off against the Mets’ best pitcher through the first month and a half of the season in Clay Holmes, you knew it wouldn’t take much offense to […]

It is looking increasingly likely that José Mourinho will be Real Madrid’s manager next season, 13 years on from his last stint at the Bernabéu. His first official match in charge of Los Blancos came against Michael Laudrup’s RCD Mallorca on August 29, 2010 — a goalless draw. Mourinho kicked off his three-year tenure with […]

Milwaukee got things started with […]
A rookie pitcher making his second MLB start mostly stymied the Twins’ offense, and when this team gets into a bullpen battle, they’d lose to the Bad News Bears. Inning-by-inning notes: 1: We begin a sparsely-attended game with a Jackson Chourio double; he scores on a William Contreras single. Three hits for Milwaukee in the […]
The Braves started their series against Boston off with Spencer Strider on the mound, looking to build on his strong start against the Dodgers.
