Iran Striker Says He Quit National Team Because Fans' Insults Made His Mother Sick
Sardar Azmoun, a 23-year-old striker with the Iranian national team, was perhaps his country’s best hope for offense, both at this World Cup and in future competitions.

Mike Trout Has Made Seven Outs In His Last Eight Games
There’s no other way to say it: Mike Trout is in Barry Bonds territory. Not merely statistically, as noted by former Deadspinner Emma Baccellieri, who is either dead or at SI now, I forget which. But in the fear he engenders in opponents, who will pitch to him only when they absolutely must....
Mike Trout Doesn't Deserve This Shit
Mike Trout got on base four times against the Diamondbacks on Monday night, thanks to two walks and two singles. Trout is basically always on base—he’s currently sporting a career-high .464 OBP—so that’s not a remarkable thing in and of itself. Neither is the fact that his teammates failed to drive ...

Chowdahead On The Field At Fenway Park Gets Blindsided By Security In The Outfield<em></em>
An idiot on the field at Fenway Park during tonight’s Tigers-Red Sox game made it all the way to center field in his mad dash to ... well, I don’t know exactly. Whatever he was looking for, I don’t think it was a security guard takedown as bone-shaking as this one:...
