True Hit King Ichiro, In A Mariners Uniform, In 2018, Robbed A Dinger At The Wall
The Mariners lost at home yesterday to the Indians. This would be a happier story if they’d won, although I feel no particular way about the Mariners. But this is Ichiro doing a cool and heroic thing on a baseball diamond in the majors in 2018—had it been part of a win, it would’ve been that much sw...
Kevin Pillar Ruins Loathsome Yankees By Stealing Second, Third, And Home In One Inning
The Blue Jays struck a blow for the little guy Saturday and snatched a game from their series against the Yankees, 5-3.

The top two teams in the Eastern Conference met last night. You may have missed it: first of all, the men’s Final Four was last night; second of all, you might’ve simply sagged into the position, literally weeks ago, that the top of the Eastern Conference was settled.

On MLB opening day and with plenty of actual good NHL teams in action, there was no way in hell I was going to put myself through Red Wings-Sabres last night.

Kemba Walker Scored 46 Points In Less Time Than It Took Me To Write A Stupid Blog About It
It’s okay if you did not happen to plan yesterday evening around watching the tanking Memphis Grizzlies visiting the not tanking but nevertheless shitty and irrelevant Charlotte Hornets.
