Alcides Escobar And Andrelton Simmons Had A Shortstop Duel
Alcides Escobar and Andrelton Simmons are two of the best defensive shortstops in the league, and are always worth watching simply because great shortstop play is one of the finer things baseball has to offer. During last night’s game between the Royals and Angels, both players robbed each other of ...

DeMar DeRozan Almost Pulled Off A 360 Dunk Over A Defender
If DeMar DeRozan had managed to stuff this dunk in on this poor Chinese national teamer, it would have been one of the coolest dunks in the history of jams. As it stands, DeRozan finished just shy. The USA bench got a technical foul for their reaction, which seems unfair given that they just nearly ...

Yeah, that guy. Well, he now plays for FC Kairat in the Kazakhstan Premier League, and yesterday against FC ...

Basketball Rim No Match For Strong Dunk
We are in a barren wasteland of basketball news right now (a minor feud between Jae Crowder and Marcin Gortat is almost newsworthy at this point). Thankfully, this teen (Isiah Stokes, a highly-regarded recruit) dunked the shit out of a basketball and brought down the whole dang basketball ring at a ...

Bryce Harper Hit This Pitch To Goddamn Saturn
If you throw that fastball as straight as an arrow and lay it right over the middle of the plate, you’re liable to watch it fly all the way out of the ballpark. Bud Norris did just that against Bryce Harper, who proceeded to jerk a big dong to the third deck....

Jason Heyward Nails Runner At Home With A Gorgeous Throw
Jason Heyward’s work at the plate this season has not been anything Cubs fans can get too excited about, but he has maintained his sparkling reputation as a defensive outfielder. This play from today’s game against the Mets is evidence that even when Heyward’s not hitting, it’s still a good idea to ...

Pirates Walk Off On Little League Inside-The-Park Home Run
The Pirates and Brewers played a wild one this evening in Pittsburgh. Pirates starter Jameson Taillon took a 105 MPH liner to the noggin in the second inning, stayed in, and pitched six innings of five-hit, one-run ball. Hernan Perez—the batter who torched one at Taillon—knocked in both runs for the...

Joe Cole Bicycle Kick Delivers Rowdies Win; Yes, You Read That Correctly

Giancarlo Stanton Stroked Some Mighty Dongs
Giancarlo Stanton, the finest masher of taters in baseball, won the home run derby last night with a record 61 total home runs. He hit 18 of the 19 longest homers of the evening, and his 61 dingers traveled a total of 5.1 miles....

Ben Simmons Did Some Cool Passes Last Night
NBA Summer League isn’t a particularly useful venue for determining how good an NBA prospect will be (I remember when Donte Greene dropped 40 in the 2008 Summer League), but that doesn’t mean that these passes Ben Simmons threw last night aren’t dope....

Brandon Banks Returns Missed Field Goal 121 Yards For A Touchdown
We love the CFL, mostly because it gives us a taste of football during an arid sports summer. Here’s former NFL return master Brandon Banks quenching our thirst with a 121-yard missed field goal return. Yahoo!...

Two Exquisite Flicks Of Feet Gave France The Decisive 2-0 Lead Over Germany
This goal—Antoine Griezmann’s second on the day and the only two of the match that has sent tournament hosts France into the Euro 2016 final—is all about two touches. The first is that lightning-quick little stab of Paul Pogba’s right foot that allows him to burst into space while leaving Shkodran M...
