This Pirates Fan Sacrificed His Body To Make The Catch Of The Night
Here’s a good argument for bringing your glove to the game....
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 ...
The Padres Gave Up One Of The Dumbest Walk-Offs Of The Season
The San Diego Padres lost to the Blue Jays last night in a game where Alex Dickerson hit the everliving shit out of a baseball, then lost tonight in incredibly cruel fashion. The game went to extra innings (after Russell Martin bat flipped away getting hit by a pitch), and Matt Kemp smacked a two-ru...
Yoenis Cespedes Drops Routine Catch In Order To Make Spectacular Catch
Baseball can be boring, so I appreciate Yoenis Cespedes going out of his way to make this would-be routine catch into something much more videogenic....
Tiny, Adorable Dogs Attend NFL Training Camp
It’s NFL training camp time, which means it’s time to check in on Eddie Lacy’s middle, and also, apparently to check out some good-as-hell dogs. Washington cornerback Bashaud Breeland supplied the dogs....
Andrey Arshavin's Still Got It<em></em><em></em>
Hey, remember Andrey Arshavin, the diminutive Russian who once scored all four goals in Arsenal’s classic 4-4 draw with Liverpool, and then didn’t really do anything for the next three years? 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 ...
CC Sabathia Felled By Mighty Pitching Mound
While throwing against the Orioles this afternoon, Yankees pitcher CC Sabathia caught his cleat in the dirt and took a little tumble. The fall resulted in a balk and advanced Chris Davis to second base....
Minnesota United Goalkeeper Concedes Maybe The World's Dumbest Own Goal
I am wary of lapsing into superlatives over every old highlight, but with that qualifier out of the way, this might be the dumbest own goal I have ever seen....
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
Joe Cole, who in his younger days scored a number of famous goals for Chelsea and the English national team, showed a small spark of the wonder years last night in St. Petersburg with a bicycle kick that helped pace his current Tampa Bay Rowdies squad to a 3-0 win....
Golfer Owned
As Paul Howard discovered during his second round at the British Open, golf can be a real big jerk:...
Defender Shows Off Technique, Sweet Shooting Stroke With Impressive Own Goal
There’s so much quality in this Žarko Udovičić goal that you really need to watch the full video over and over to truly appreciate it all:...
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....
Here's The Best Sports Highlight Of The Day
This may be a down time of year for the rest of the sports world, but not for these dogs, who are putting in work and grinding every day to become the best they can be:...
Javelin Throw Does Not Go As Expected
The U.S. Olympic track & field trials continue to pace the sports periphery, and here’s a clip from today’s javelin event for the heptathlon qualifying. This is Utah State’s Chari Hawkins—a former MWC champion in the event—struggling mightily. Given that it’s javelin, it could have gone worse....
Portugal Break Euro 2016 Final Deadlock In 109th Minute
A Cristiano Ronaldo-less Portugal took an extra time lead against France as Éder blasted a strike past Hugo Lloris, who had been a brick wall throughout the match....
