Major league leaders in on-base %age (minimum 80 ABs):

.505— Taylor Ward, LAA

.439— Manny Machado, SD

.438— Mike Trout, LAA

.427— Eric Hosmer, SD

.426— Josh Bell, Wash

.414— Brandon Nimmo, NYM


Quote of the Day

“Obviously my name’s an attention-grabber and people like to do headlines with it, but I like to show people with my play that I can back it up. I have done that, I’m going to continue to do that as well, and give them a reason to remember my name.”

Oklahoma QB recruit General Booty, expected to be a backup this fall. That is his real name.


Sunday’s quiz

In 1967, the NHL expanded from six to 12 teams; the six new teams were all in the same division. Which one of those teams went 0-12 in the Stanley Cup finals the first three years?


Saturday’s quiz

Pat Riley won four titles in nine years coaching the Lakers; Mike Dunleavy replaced Riley as the Lakers’ coach.


Friday’s quiz

Phil Jackson won two NBA championship rings as a player for the Knicks, in 1970, 1973.


********************************

Sunday’s Den: Wrapping up a sports Saturday…….

— NFL Week 1 pointspreads:

Buffalo @ Rams (-1)

San Francisco (-6) @ Chicago

New England @ Miami (-3)

New Orleans (-3) @ Atlanta




Baltimore (-4) @ NJ Jets

Pittsburgh @ Cincinnati (-6)

Cleveland (-4.5) @ Carolina

Philadelphia (-3.5) @ Detroit


Indianapolis (-7.5) @ Houston

Jacksonville @ Washington (-4.5)

Kansas City (-3) @ Arizona

Green Bay (-1.5) @ Minnesota


LA Chargers (-4) @ Las Vegas

NJ Giants @ Tennessee (-6.5)

Tampa Bay (-2.5) @ Dallas

Denver (-3.5) @ Seattle

— Chicago Bears don’t have a road game in December; three home games and a bye.

— As if they don’t have enough problems, Houston Texans are only team that plays three games against teams that are coming off their bye week.

— Washington Commanders have an odd three-week stretch:

Week 13— @ Giants

Week 14— bye week

Week 15— vs Giants at home

Not often an NFL team plays consecutive games against the same team.

All 32 NFL teams play at least one game on a Thursday this season.

This coming season in college football:

— 66 teams have a new offensive coordinator

— 56 teams have a new defensive coordinator


Over half the I-A teams in the country have a new offensive coordinator.

— USC’s football team poached six transfers who play defense; Trojans allowed 31.8 ppg last season, which is why they changed coaches in the offseason, and why they added experienced players to try and fill some gaps.

— All told this weekend, there are seven Game 7’s in NBA/NHL playoffs.

— Toronto Maple Leafs are the first team in MLB/NBA/NHL history to lose a winner-take-all game in the opening round of the playoffs five years in a row.

In baseball………

— Phillies 8, Dodgers 3— Philly won first three games in this series, scoring 29 runs. Coming into the series, Phillies were 14-17, but they sure can score some runs.

Thursday/Friday, Phillies became the first team ever (home or visitor) to allow 7+ runs in back-to-back games at Dodger Stadium yet win both games.

— NL East standings:

Mets 23-12

Phillies 17-17

Braves 16-18

Marlins 15-18

Nationals 12-23

— Mets catcher James McCann has a wrist injury, is out for six weeks.

NL West standings:

Dodgers 20-11

Padres 21-13

Giants 20-13

Diamondbacks 18-16

Rockies 17-16

— Red Sox are 2-9 this season in games where game-winning run scored from 7th inning on.

Braves 6, Padres 5— San Diego scored four runs in top of 8th to take 5-2 lead, then Atlanta scored four runs in bottom of 8th to win the game.

A’s 4, Angels 3— Luis Barrera of the A’s is the second player in MLB history whose first career HR was a walkoff HR with his team trailing by more than one run and down to its last out.

The other was Hank Severeid for the St. Louis Browns on April 17, 1915. 1915!!!!

Couple nights ago around 4am, I stumbled across an old movie I had never seen: The Gong Show Movie.

Back around 1980 or so, there was a daytime game show, The Gong Show; it was American Idol on quaaludes— five or six contestants would perform, but very few of them had actual talent.

There were three celebrity judges; if one of them hit the gong before your act was over, you had to leave. If you made it to the end, you would get scored by the judges and there was a winner for each show. Can’t remember what they got, but it wasn’t much.

The host was Chuck Barris, who created the Dating Game and put the Newlywed Game on ABC also; he was a TV genius, but he was a little…….quirky. As host of The Gong Show, he was in a world of his own, dancing during acts, misreading cue cards. It was bizarre at times.

They had this guy, The Unknown Comic, who would come on stage couple times a week and tell jokes; he always had a paper bag over his head. Occasionally his jokes would have to be bleeped out; they were off-color.

Another guy was Gene Gene the Dancing Machine; he would come on stage and just start dancing until they were to a commercial, for no apparent reason.

The Gong Show TV show was awesome, it was great fun. 20-year old me loved it. The movie didn’t have as many censors; it also wasn’t as funny, but I did laugh several times. It was like catching up with an old friend, a friend who often made you shake your head in disbelief.

Monday’s 6-pack
Odds to win the PGA Championship this week:
12-1— Scheffler, Morikawa, Rahm
14-1— McIlroy, Thomas
16-1— Dustin Johnson, Cam Smith
18-1— Cantlay, Koepka
20-1— Hovland, Spieth
25-1— Xander Schauffele

Quote of the Day
“Despite speculation from media about my future this fall, I’m currently undecided. I may work for NBC, I may play football again, I may focus on business and philanthropy, I may train for the pickleball tour, senior golf tour, coach my kids or all of the above. I’ll let you know.”
Drew Brees

Monday’s quiz
Where did Drew Brees play his college football?

Sunday’s quiz
In 1967, the NHL expanded from six to 12 teams; the six new teams were all in the same division. St Louis Blues went 0-12 in the Stanley Cup finals the first three years those six new teams shared the same division.

Saturday’s quiz
Pat Riley won four titles in nine years coaching the Lakers; Mike Dunleavy replaced Riley as the Lakers’ coach.

***********************************

Monday’s Den: Wrapping up a sports Sunday

13) Pirates 1, Reds 0
— Pittsburgh won the game, but didn’t get a hit; they’re 6th team since 1901 to win despite not getting any hits- it last happened in 2008, when Jered Weaver and Jose Arredondo of the Angels held the Dodgers hitless, but lost anyway.

Cincinnati is 9-26; things aren’t going well for them.

Hunter Greene threw 118 pitches Sunday, the most by any pitcher in a game this season. Coming into Sunday, Greene was 0-5, 8.57 in his previous five starts. He doesn’t give up a hit in 7.1 IP here, and they still lose.

12) Saturday/Sunday, there were seven Game 7’s, between NHL/NBA playoffs; I’m a believer that the NHL playoffs are better than the NBA version. Basketball doesn’t need seven games for each series— too many games. By the 7th game, everyone knows everyone’s plays and the games are uglier than normal games.

Playoff hockey is tremendous, where a hot goalie can keep an underdog in the hunt, and one odd bounce of the puck can send the favorite home unhappy.

11) Calgary 3, Dallas 2 OT— Flames outshot Dallas 67-28, but Stars’ goalie Jake Oettinger was just awesome in goal, keeping his team afloat until Calgary finally scored 15:09 into overtime.

Flames will now play their arch-rival Edmonton in playoffs for first time since 1991; this also guarantees a Canadian franchise will be in the NHL’s Final Four. Last time a Canadian team won the Stanley Cup was 1993, when Montreal won.

10) Rangers 4, Penguins 3 OT— New York rallies back from down three games to one, scoring at 4:46 of OT to advance to the next round of the playoffs.

For Pittsburgh, it is the fourth year in a row they lost in first round of playoffs. Penguins won the Stanley Cup in 2016, 2017, the 4th and 5th times they’ve won the title.

9) In this round of the NBA playoffs, only five of 26 games were decided by less than seven points; the series were mostly close, but the games weren’t much fun to watch- the Memphis-Golden State series was mostly an exception.

Suns were down 57-27 at HALFTIME Sunday night; at home!!! How does that happen?

On to Week 5 of the USFL:
8) Tampa Bay 27, Michigan 20
:
— Michigan outgained Bandits 407-273, but were minus-2 in turnovers.
— Michigan QB Patterson threw for 304 yards.
— Jeff Fisher’s Panthers start the season 1-4.

7) New Jersey 27, New Orleans 17:
— Generals averaged 6.1 yards/play, outgained New Orleans 401-270.
— Breakers completed only 15-36 passes, threw two picks.
— 4-1 New Jersey leads the North Division.

6) Birmingham 30, Philadelphia 17:
— Hometown Stallions are 5-0; they trailed in 2nd half of every game.
— Switch to QB Smith provided spark for Stallions; he threw for 203 yards.
— Birmingham ran 75 plays, Stars ran only 49.

5) Pittsburgh 21, Houston 20:
— Maulers threw a 9-yard TD pass as time expired for the game-winning TD.
— QB Vad Lee came off bench to throw for 170 yards, two TD’s.
— Both teams are now 1-4.

4) Not many people had heard of Vad Lee before Sunday; his given name is Lavaedeay Monlique “Vad” Lee. He started at Georgia Tech in 2013, but transferred to I-AA James Madison after that season and played there for two years. He played three games for Saskatchewan in the CFL in 2016, and then his career pretty much came to a halt. He played in the Spring League for couple of years, but now, at age 29, he is kind of in the limelight for the first time.

3) Drew Brees is apparently out at NBC after one season as a studio analyst; now he is making noise about playing again. I’m sure Roger Goodell is thrilled that a guy who has been doing TV ads for a gambling app is talking about playing ball again.

Chances are probably better that Brees winds up doing TV on FOX.

2) Dodgers 5, Phillies 4— Gavin Lux walked it off with a 2-run double in ninth inning as LA avoided a 4-game sweep by the Phillies, who gave torrid slugger Bryce Harper the day off.

1) If the baseball playoffs started today (they don’t):
NL— Mets, Brewers, Dodgers. Wild Cards: Padres, Giants, Cardinals.
AL— New York, Twins, Astros. Wild Cards: Angels, Rays, Blue Jays

If I was one of the teams, and I knew our team was doing it [cheating], I’d keep my mouth shut and just go about our business. But listen, I can only control what’s going on here. I can’t control what the other guys do.”
Astros’ owner Jim Crane
