Baseball is so much more fun when it includes a few other things besides home runs and strikeouts

Very touching to see so many of the Blue Jays players wearing #51 in support of Dodgers reliever Alex Vesia and his family

One of my favorite weird streaks is that from 1986-2008, the last game of every World Series was decided by three runs or fewer

One thing in the sports universe that has always felt weird to me: Baseball broadcasters maintain their own scorecard

Where is the @ElamEnding when you need it? The ultimate solution to regular season overtime wear and tear
The Thunder have gone to double OT in both of their games this season. No team went to double OT more than twice last season.

This OKC/HOU game is a ton of fun but with it being on the verge of double OT on night one of 82 game nights, it makes me think that the Elam Ending is a great answer for regular season NBA overtime

As someone who absolutely loves postseason baseball, and who has watched as much postseason baseball as possible going all the way back to the 1990s: These games are so much more enjoyable to watch with the pitch clock. The positive effect can't be overstated.

ESPN with a lovely tribute to another broadcasting voice from my childhood: Cliff Drysdale. I remember tuning into tennis matches as a kid, very skeptical about whether I would actually enjoy it, and being drawn in listening to Cliff Drysdale. And I've loved tennis ever since.

Lee Corso - his energy, his insight, his wit, his fun - was part of what made me into a sports fan many years ago. Thank you, Coach. And his tribute was so well done. Kudos all around.

4-team divisions would be bad for MLB. If the NFL has taught us anything, 4-team divisions make it very unlikely for all of the most deserving teams to receive all of the most favorable spots in the playoffs (if they make it to the playoffs at all)
