White Sox Execute 9-3-2-6-2-5 Triple Play
Triple plays are generally credited to the defense, but as we’ve seen more often than not they’re created by piss-poor base running. So here’s an example of the Texas Rangers shitting up the basepaths as they manage to get themselves into a 9-3-2-6-2-5 triple play at the hands of the White Sox tonig...
James Harden Game-Winner Sinks Warriors
The Golden State Warriors fought back from a 17-point Rockets lead to take their first lead of the game with just over a minute left. After a crazy back-and-forth that saw Michael Beasley hit two huge free throws, Ian Clark show up as a legit clutch option for the Warriors, and some horrific transit...
Mike Trout Will Be Just Fine
Mike Trout started the 2016 season on an uncharacteristic slump. Before yesterday’s game against the White Sox, the Angels center fielder was hitting .220 (the worst through 14 games since his rookie season) and had only four extra base hits and a single, lonely dinger to his name. He’s really strug...
Report: High School Basketball Star Actually A 29-Year-Old Man
The Catholic Central High School boys basketball team, located in Windsor, Ontario, has a pretty good player in Jonathan Nicola. The 6-foot-9 center is so good that his coach put together the workout video above, because, as he told the Windsor Star last year, Nicola had a shot at going pro. That dr...
Aaron Hicks Rockets A 105 MPH Throw To Nail A Runner At The Plate

A Fancy Stoner's Guide To Baking
A stoner, a true stoner, will tell you that smoking weed is not at all the same as eating it. Baking weed tends to make it feel stronger, if only because it’s stripped down to its most potent parts. A note to beginners: never eat the whole brownie....
The First Time We Got High: A Deadspin Confessional
The Deadspin staff has a few self-described stoners and a few notable herbs. And because the latter are equal to the former, we will now anonymously share our stories of the first time we got high. (It might be pretty obvious who’s who.) Please feel free to share your first memory of being stoned be...
Weed Activity Books Are Pretty Trippy, Man
The best place to get high is outside, where you can feel the air and look for cool bugs under logs or whatever. My coworker Drew and I recently climbed a mountain and got stoned, and it was fun as hell. Sadly, not everyone lives near a park or forest or beach where you can easily and discretely smo...
Chinese Keeper Goes All Superman, Flies Around To Save Three Would-Be Goals

These Korean Announcers Are Excited As Hell About Byung-ho Park's Huge Dingers
The Twins lost the first nine games of the regular season, then won four in a row, and finally lost again today to the Brewers. Their scoring has (obviously) increased greatly during their run of newfound competence, and their rookie first baseman Byung-ho Park has been at the center of it all. He’s...
Noah Syndergaard Throws The Ball So Dang Hard
Big-ass Mets pitcher Noah Syndergaard had a good game against the Phillies last night, striking out eight and allowing just one run in seven innings. He’s struck out 29 jamokes in his first 20 innings of the season, and he’s done it by throwing the ball really, really hard....
Gerardo Parra Nabs Jay Bruce With A Laserbeam From The Wall
Gerardo Parra’s reputation as a defensive wizard might be a bit out ahead of his actual production since his historic 2013 season, but man, the Rockies outfielder’s still got plenty of highlights in him. Look at this throw, which wasn’t even perfectly on line but still got Bruce out at third fair an...

Watch These Cricketers Achieve 'Absolute Brilliance' With Their Diving Relay Catch
Yo, got your Indian Premier League cricket highlights right here. Delhi Daredevils against Royal Challengers Bangalore, happening thousands of miles away today. Already epic, I know.

Ian Kinsler Creates One Of The Strangest & Most Brilliant Groundouts You'll See
Tigers second baseman Ian Kinsler dropped a pop fly on purpose in the fifth inning of today’s game in Houston, purely to replace a speedy baserunner with a slower one. It worked perfectly....
The Padres Made A Highlight
The Padres, they didn’t get out to a great start this year. They needed 31 innings before they scored their first run of the season. And they’re still at the bottom of the NL West ... but now in a tie, at least, with the Diamondbacks, who make great company for misery....

This KO Is Everything Beautiful And Terrible About Boxing, In 2 Brutal Seconds
What the hell did boxing fans do before still video? (Or, for that matter, still photography?) It’s no coincidence, I think, that the sport peaked long before people could actually see what was happening in the ring, sometimes even when they were watching it in real time. Take this KO from a lightwe...
