UCLA Scored 50 Points In 20 Minutes For A Psychedelic Comeback Against Washington State
Only the true East Coast degenerates—not even myself, if we’re coming clean—would have had the guts and belief to stick with UCLA’s game at Washington State after 1 a.m. Sunday morning, when the No. 19 ranked Cougars went up 49-17 on the winless Bruins midway through the third quarter.

Max Muncy Bat Flips On A Harmless Fly Out Like A Complete Buster
Bat flips are great, as a stylish way of punctuating a mighty dinger. It’s less cool but probably acceptable to bat flip after a particularly well-hit non-dinger, if that non-dinger should be a walk-off RBI single.

Maikel Franco Punctuates Walk-Off Dinger With Incredible Bat Flip
