Daniel Murphy Strokes Another Dong
Daniel Murphy’s cherry on top of the ongoing destruction of the Cubs was his sixth straight game with a home run—setting a new postseason record—and his seventh home run in these playoffs, one behind the record for an entire postseason held jointly by Barry Bonds, Carlos Beltran, and Nelson Cruz. He...
While all eyes are on ESPN and the 300 or so people they are laying off today, the SportsBusiness Journal reports that the Universal Sports TV channel is shutting down.

Matt Harvey Took Out Insurance On His Arm
The controversy over Matt Harvey’s innings limit turned out to be a lot of nothing: the Mets merely skipped Harvey’s starts and gave him shorter outings, and he’s off the leash for however long this playoff run lasts. But that doesn’t change the fact that Harvey’s already thrown 23 more innings than...
That Troy Tulowitzki Ejection Sure Was Strange
MLB is lucky last night’s Royals-Blue Jays game was a victory for the Jays, because if the Royals had pulled ahead late and Troy Tulowitzki hadn’t been there to bat in the bottom of the ninth, all of Canada would be calling for home plate umpire John Hirschbeck’s head....

Daniel Murphy Just Keeps Mashing, Might Be Possessed
A Mets source reiterated to the Daily News yesterday that Daniel Murphy’s astounding postseason play hasn’t altered the club’s plan to let him leave this offseason. The Chicago Cubs, for their part, have more urgent Daniel Murphy concerns than what to do with him when his contract expires. Namely, t...
