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

Saturday’s Den: Random stuff with the weekend here…….

— Monday is Labor Day, a national holiday, but there are only 11 baseball games, which means that eight teams have Labor Day off, which is nonsensical.

— There were also 11 baseball games Thursday; Oakland A’s were only team of the 22 that played who scored a run in the first inning. I mention that because you can bet on whether or not teams score in the first inning.

— A’s 9, Rangers 2
Brett Rooker homered twice for the A’s, who have now had consecutive winning months for the first time since 2021.

Mark Kotsay has legitimately done an excellent job managing this young team; the guy in Kansas City will get Manager of the Year, but Kotsay deserves kudos for the job he is doing.

— Astros 3, Royals 2
Framber Valdez pitched 7 innings, didn’t allow a hit.
Paul DeJong tied the game 2-2 with a 9th inning home run.
Jose Altuve walked it off with a 9th inning double off the Crawford Boxes.

— Cubs 7, Nationals 6
Chicago scored seven runs in the second inning.
Cubs scored 80 runs in their last eight games.
Cubs are 8-2 in last ten games, are five games out of last playoff spot.

— Royals 1B Vinnie Pasquantino broke his thumb Thursday, is out 6-8 weeks, which means he is likely out for the year. Pasquantino has 19 homers, 97 RBI this year; big loss for the Royals.

— Braves 7, Phillies 2
Orlando Arcia homered twice for Atlanta.
Phillies lead the Braves by five games in NL East, with 27 games to play.

— Famous birthdays, August 31st:
Richard Gere, 75
Tom Candiotti, 68
Hideo Nomo, 56

Debbie Gibson, 54
Larry Fitzgerald, 41
Matt Adams, 36

Ronel Blanco, 31
Jalen Brunson, 28
Desmond Ridder, 25

— Indiana Pacers gave guard T.J. McConnell a 4-year contract extension worth $45M; he scored 10.2 ppg last year, first time in his nine NBA seasons that he averaged double figures.

— TCU 34, Stanford 27
TCU scored two TD’s in 1:22 span late in 4th quarter for the win.
Cardinal led 17-10 at halftime.
Horned Frogs outgained Stanford, 457-288.

— Michigan State 16, Florida Atlantic 10
First score of game was a safety for the Spartans.

MSU led 16-3 at the half, didn’t score in second half.
Teams combined to convert 5-28 third down plays.

— Wisconsin 28, Western Michigan 14
Badgers led 10-7 at halftime.
Broncos led 14-13 early in 4th quarter.
Wisconsin was 10-16 on 3rd down, Broncos 3-10

— Oklahoma 51, Temple 3
From 2015-19, Temple was 43-24.
Since 2020, Temple is 10-34.
Oklahoma is in the SEC now, which takes some getting used to.

— They have a 2:00 warning in college football now, probably because they make lot of $$$ for TV commercials during the 2:00 warning, but it does make a difference for coaches.

— Miami Dolphins gave coach Mike McDaniel a contract extension thru 2028; Dolphins are 20-16 in two years under McDaniel, 0-2 in playoffs- they haven’t won a playoff game since 2000, when Dave Wannstedt was their coach.

Armadillo Sports

Monday’s 6-pack:
Interesting college football spreads for next week:
— Arkansas @ Oklahoma State (-7.5)
— Texas (-3.5) @ Michigan
— Iowa State @ Iowa (-2.5)
— South Carolina @ Kentucky (-6.5)
— Michigan State @ Maryland (-7.5)
— Kansas (-6.5) @ Illinois

Quote of the Day
“A lot of things have been going against us. We need that break just to kind of help the morale in that clubhouse.”
White Sox interim manager Grady Sizemore

Monday’s quiz
In the history of the Houston Astros, which player has scored the most runs?

Sunday’s quiz
Terry Bowden (Bobby Bowden’s son) was Clemson’s football coach, before Dabo Swinney.

Saturday’s quiz
Ryan Braun has hit the most home runs ever for the Milwaukee Brewers.

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

Monday’s Den: Wrapping up a sports weekend…….

— USC 27, LSU 20
Trojans outscored LSU 14-3 in the 4th quarter.
USC QB Moss threw for 378 yards in his 2nd college start.
LSU lost its season opener for third year in a row.

Miller Moss is 2-0 as a college starter, throwing for 372/378 yards on neutral fields, after USC lost five of the last six games Caleb Williams played for them.

— College football home underdogs were 5-4 ATS this week.
Home favorites were 10-10 ATS.

— Too-early conference trends:
AAC 2-2 ATS
ACC 4-4 ATS
Big X 3-3 ATS

Big 18 6-6 ATS
C-USA 1-2 ATS, all as road underdogs
MAC 3-3 ATS, all as road underdogs

Mountain West 5-3 ATS
(I just typed Pac-12, had to delete it)
SEC 4-4 ATS
Sun Belt 3-3 ATS

— Minnesota Gophers’ QB Max Brosmer was at I-AA New Hampshire for five years before he became a Gopher; he threw for 6,603 yards the last two years. Has to be a huge jump from playing in the CAA to the Big 18— Minnesota has a 3-week stretch coming up wheee they play Michigan, USC and UCLA in consecutive weeks.

Little different than playing Monmouth, Albany and Towson State.

— Modern baseball
Sunday, the Red Sox took a 1-0 lead in the 5th inning in Detroit; P Cooper Criswell pitched the first four innings, retiring all 12 hitters he faced, striking out five of them. Then, for some freakin’ reason, they took him out of the game; why?!?!?!?!

Criswell has finished five innings in seven starts this year, six innings in two of those; if it ain’t broke, don’t freakin’ fix it. Tigers scored twice in 5th inning and won 4-1, as the overeducated morons in the front office cost the Red Sox a win.

— Two years ago, I couldn’t watch the World Series at home because DirecTV was at war with FOX, so channel 23 here in Albany was blacked out on DirecTV. When DirecTV lost the NFL Sunday Ticket, I dumped it for YouTube TV, which has been a big plus for me.

This weekend, DirecTV is now at war with Disney, which means no ESPN channels or ABC on DirecTV, kind of a big thing with football starting up.

I read on the Interweb that DirecTV once had 21 million customers; now they’re down to 9 million.

— Famous birthdays, September 2nd:
Terry Bradshaw, 76
Nate Archibald, 76
Mark Harmon, 73

Rick Manning, 70
Eric Dickerson, 64
Rex Hudler, 64

Keanu Reeves, 60
Tommy Maddox, 53
Willie Adames, 29

— Gavin Sheets is an OF/1B for the White Sox, who are 31-107 and at one point, lost 21 games in a row. His dad Larry Sheets was an OF/DH for ’88 Orioles, who wear 54-107 and started the season with a 21-game losing skid.

Ironically, after starting that season 0-21, Baltimore’s first win was against the White Sox.

— Random stat: all-time leaders in sacrifice flies:
128- Eddie Murray
127- Cal Ripken Jr

— Last week, basketball star Steph Curry got a contract extension for 2026-27 that is worth $62.59M, for that one season.

This year, the Oakland A’s entire payroll is $62.57M. For the whole team.

— In 2021, the Angels drafted 20 pitchers; no position players, just 20 pitchers, that’s how committed they were/are to improving their mound presence.

Angels 3, Mariners 2
20-year old Caden Dana made his MLB debut Sunday, gave up two runs in 6 IP, got the win in a solid performance. Dana was drafted in 2022, but he has flown thru the Angels’ farm system, and may be in the big leagues to stay now.

— P Jordan Wicks got a win pitching for the Cubs in Washington; he threw five innings, gave up a run, but he didn’t walk anyone, or strike anyone out. Really unusual to get a pitching win as a starter and not strike anyone out.

— This weekend was the deadline for teams to add players on waiver deals and have them be eligible for the postseason. Kansas City Royals added three players:

OF Tommy Pham, OF Robbie Grossman, 1B Yuli Gurriel, all older players who can hit.

— Phillies 3, Braves 2 (11)
Nick Castellanos knocked in all three runs for the Phillies.
Braves lead the Mets by a game for the last Wild Card slot in the NL

Phillies/Braves are done playing each other in the regular season.

— If the baseball playoffs started today (they do not):
NL: Phillies, Brewers, Dodgers. Wild Cards: Diamondbacks, Padres, Mets
AL: New York, Guardians, Astros. Wild Cards: Orioles, Twins, Royals
