The Padres Made Another Highlight With A Walk-Off Walk Against The Dodgers
If you’re a Padres fan, these are the moments you live for: Self-immolation by a Dodgers pitcher that leads to a walk-off 11th-inning win. This canny piece of non-hitting came late Saturday and includes all the drama of a game-winning hit but with the hold-yer-breath matador’s flourish that Yangervi...

Daniel Murphy Freezes Yoenis Cespedes With The Ole Fake Throw Trick
NL hitting leader Daniel Murphy and his new buddies on the Washington Nationals are in New York to take on the Mets, for whom Murphy jerked some postseason dongs last year. Washington put a whooping on New York last night, and they’re up big tonight thanks to Matt Harvey’s bad start....
Vanderbilt Once Again Pulled Off The Rare Triple Steal
Auburn pitcher Justin Camp must have a notoriously slow windup or Ethan Paul must be an exceedingly brave baserunner, because during the seventh inning of this afternoon’s Auburn-Vanderbilt baseball game, Paul took off and stole home on Camp.

Steph Curry Will Extinguish You Before You Even Realize It
A few times in Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals, the Warriors would make spurts of six or eight points, but never achieve sufficient escape velocity to get out of OKC’s orbit. This is rare, and they let the Thunder wander back into the game, which they eventually won. Not so much tonight. The...
Juan Lagares Did A Pretty Convincing Willie Mays Impression
When Willie Mays made The Catch in 1954, the New York Giants played in the Polo Grounds, which was a goddamn huge ballpark shaped like a horseshoe with a 483-foot center field fence. He had to get way the hell back there to make the over-the-shoulder grab. Given the dimensions of the ballpark, it’s ...
Just How In The World Did Andre Iguodala Hit This Layup?
Andre Iguodala is primarily a defender and a passer for the Golden State Warriors. He won the Finals MVP for a series in which he shot 10-for-28 37-for-71 after all. But this circus layup, my lord. Get a load of this puppy. The whole play was wild and weird, but the finish (which Shaq correctly call...

The Europa League final between Liverpool and Sevilla was a taut, back-and-forth affair, until Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge broke the game open in the 35th minute with this beautiful strike.

Khris Davis Invented A Fantastic Walk-Off Celebration
Oakland A’s outfielder Khris Davis won his team a game in style last night, delivering an 8-5 victory with a walk-off grand slam. Just as good as the dinger itself was the celebratory move Davis busted out as he neared home plate....
Clayton Kershaw Is An Apex Predator
Los Angeles Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw is on one of those runs that has baseball writers banging down the door of Elias Sports and plumbing the depths of Baseball Reference, all in an attempt to put whatever the hell it is he’s doing in context.

Adrian Beltre Crushed A Huge Dinger From One Knee

Here Are All 36 Goals From Gonzalo Higuaín's Amazing, Record-Breaking Season
As inarguably great as Gonzalo Higuaín has been for the better part of a decade now, he tends to be overlooked when it comes time to rhapsodize about the great pure strikers in the world. But after the season he just put together at Napoli, scoring 36 goals in 35 matches and thus breaking Serie A’s ...
Basketball Teen Tries To Stunt, Gets Righteously Owned
