Stephen Curry Hits 65-Foot Buzzer-Beater
I mean seriously, come on. Is Steph Curry even human? Spanish-language call from ESPN Deportes below:...
We Have Another Addition To The Stephen Curry Highlight Reel
Not that anyone was really questioning whether Stephen Curry deserved to be the NBA MVP this season, but if you are still somehow a skeptic, he’s been showing some of the flash that earned him the league’s top honors—and one of those great moments happened in the first quarter tonight in Memphis....
Clippers Blow Out Rockets, Advance To–Wait, What? The <i>Rockets</i> Won???
Late in the third quarter of last night’s game at Staples Center, the Rockets looked about as dead as any team has been in these playoffs. They’d been outscored 23-to-6 by the Clippers in the quarter and fallen behind by 19; they weren’t defending or working for good looks on offense and looked pret...
William Delivers Equalizer With Long-Range <i>Golazo</i>
The Liga MX playoffs are underway, and tonight’s quarterfinal leg between Querétaro and Veracruz cranked up in the 38th minute as Brazilian midfielder William let fly a long-range strike—set up by the legend, Ronaldinho—that evened the score and fired up the Corregidora....
Corey Kluber Takes No-Hitter Into The 7th, Fans 18
Corey Kluber was a very good pitcher last year. So good, in fact, that he won the American League Cy Young award, narrowly edging out Felix Hernandez. This season, though, has been a very different story. ...
John Wall Is Back And Doing Ridiculous Shit
John Wall is playing for the first time in four games tonight, and man did we miss him. He’s been his usual whirling dervish self all over the court, but this no-look overhead pass is insane....
There's Still Nothing Quite Like A LeBron James Chasedown Block
Watching LeBron James suplex the Bulls last night felt like bumping into an old friend. He does this at least once every postseason, but the first big LeBron Game of the summer is always a pleasant reminder of just what the greatest player in the world is really capable of. Hey guys, LeBron is here,...
Giancarlo Stanton Crushes Homer Out Of Dodger Stadium, Literally
Holy crap, Giancarlo Stanton mashed this first inning pitch from Mike Bolsinger out of Dodger Stadium. Not out of the field of play, but out of the entire stadium....
The Pissbabies Win: Yasiel Puig Says He's Cutting Down On Bat Flips
Here’s some crappy news from the Los Angeles Times regarding Dodgers outfielder Yasiel Puig, a favorite around these parts:...
6'1" Bryce Cotton Throws Down One-Handed Alley-Oop
My favorite thing about this play is how much it resembles a quarterback catch on a trick play, with Utah’s recently-signed point guard Bryce Cotton dumping the ball off to his running back (Rodney Hood) and sprinting towards the end zone around the outside of the line. ...
Mookie Betts Steals Two Bases In One Play
Red Sox speedster Mookie Betts is quickly earning a reputation as MLB’s walking highlight reel, and he didn’t take long to prove it today against the Nationals as the Boston centerfielder walked, then stole second and third in the same play....
Raheem Sterling Quiets Liverpool Boos With Marvelous Effort
Liverpool supporters were booing Raheem Sterling just a few days ago, but their displeasure is likely quieted for the moment after his outstanding effort to score early in today’s match against Newcastle at Anfield. Look at those feet move!...
Travis d'Arnaud Needs To Stop Hitting Balls At Andrelton Simmons
Braves shortstop Andrelton Simmons made a ridiculous throw to get Mets catcher Travis d’Arnaud out at first in Friday’s game, which is cool, because Simmons churns out gorgeous defensive highlights like it’s nothing, but what’s even cooler is that Simmons made almost the same exact throw on d’Arnau...
What's Better Than Hitting A Walk-Off Grand Slam? Stealing One Away.
Rangers outfielder Leonys Martin came to the plate with the bases loaded in the bottom of the ninth inning during yesterday’s game against the Astros, and proceeded to whack what appeared to be a walk-off grand slam. Martin was probably feeling preeeeetty good about himself as he ran toward first b...
Mickelson Birdies 16 With Megaputt
How much less enjoyable would it be to watch this clip of Phil Mickelson going to 12-under for the Masters and drawing even closer to tournament leader Jordan Spieth without the presence of CBS’s Verne Lundquist? Without Verne, it’s just a girthy man pumping his fists in the air....
Messi Loops In With Finesse For 399th Barcelona Goal
It always seems to follow that when Cristiano Ronaldo scores a golazo, Lionel Messi is there to answer one of his own. That happened today at Sevilla, when Messi dropped a marvelous slow-motion curler past Sergio Rico for his 399th goal in a Barcelona uniform....
Thomas Müller Scores Goal From Seemingly Impossible Angle
Despite being ridiculously shorthanded, Bayern Munich is having its way with Frankfurt today with the most impressive effort coming from Thomas Müller, who played what looks like an almost impossible angle for Bayern’s third goal. ...

This Is One Of The Weirdest Infield Hits You'll Ever See
Last night the Padres' Cory Spangenberg hit a common foul chopper that turned out to be not so common: it caught an edge in foul territory and somehow managed to roll back into fair territory for an infield hit. It left announcer Dick Enberg delighted:...
Adam Eaton's Diving Catch Will Be Hard To Top
We’re not even a week into the 2015 baseball season, but I feel confident saying that it’s going to be very hard for any outfielder to make a catch this season that will top what White Sox center fielder Adam Eaton did today. ...
