Quote of the Day.
“Winning helps, and losing doesn’t.”
Bill Parcells

Friday’s quiz
Wrigley Field and Fenway Park are the two oldest ballparks in the major leagues; which ballpark is the 3rd-oldest?

Thursday’s quiz
Urban Meyer has been head coach at four colleges: Bowling Green, Utah, Florida, Ohio State

Wednesday’s quiz
In the movie Blue Chips, Nick Nolte coaches the basketball team at fictional Western U; their mascot was a dolphin.

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

Friday’s Den: Random stuff with weekend here……..

13) Dodgers reliever Mitch White entered Wednesday’s game, and he finished it, throwing 91 pitches in 7.1 IP, allowing only four baserunners. It was the longest relief stint by a Dodger since 1960.

His reward? They sent him to AAA Thursday, because they’ve been playing so many bullpen games that they can’t afford to have him sitting around after he threw 91 pitches.

12) Kershaw is hurt, Bauer is suspended (with pay), May is out for the year, Urias is hurt; this is who the Dodgers started on the mound this week:
Monday— Justin Bruihl
Tuesday— David Price
Wednesday— Justin Bruihl (again)
Thursday— Corey Knebel

11) Reds 6, Marlins 1— Joey Votto cracked a 3-run homer to back Luis Castillo’s pitching.

Some people on social media have been debating whether Votto is a Hall of Famer:
— .417 career on-base %age, which is freakin’ great.
— He’s the league in on-base %age seven times.
— 322 home runs, 1,045 RBI
— 1,265 walks- he led the league in walks five times.
— He’s scored 100+ runs five times.
— He’s been on six All-Star teams.

Definite Hall of Famer, in my opinion.

10) There are three ballplayers who are eligible for the Hall of Fame who have 3,000+ hits but haven’t been voted into the HOF:
4,256 hits— Pete Rose
3,115— Alex Rodriguez
3,020— Rafael Palmeiro

9) Angels 13, Tigers 10:
— Detroit led this game 10-2 after five innings.
— Tiger bullpen allowed 11 runs in 4.1 IP
— First four hitters in Angels’ lineup went 10-19.

8) Houston Astros are 25-25 at home this season vs teams with a losing record; if you wagered on them equally in all those games, you’d be down 21.9 units. No bueno.

7) Rays 7, Orioles 2— Baltimore has lost 15 games in a row, none of them by one run. It is their second losing streak of 14+ games this season.

Last team to have two losing streaks of 14+ games in one season? 1935 Boston Braves; one of their players was Babe Ruth, in his final season.

6) Mets are retiring Jerry Koosman’s #36 on August 28; when they going to retire Dwight Gooden’s #16?
— Koosman went 140-137 as a Met, helping them win the ’69 World Series, ’73 NL title
— Gooden went 157-85 as a Met, helping them win the ’86 World Series, ’88 NL East title.

5) Patriots 35, Eagles 0:
— Eagles QB Jalen Hurts (stomach illness) didn’t play.
— Total yardage was 486-163
— No idea what this means for the Eagles, but it sure as hell ain’t good.

4) Weird thing about these exhibition games is that often times, the teams practiced against each other for couple of days before the actual game, so there is familiarity between the players when the game happens. Have to think that helps the defenses.

3) BetMGM posted odds on New England’s 2021 season:
— +115 to make playoffs
— 7-2 to win AFC East
— 16-1 to win AFC
— 30-1 to win Super Bowl

2) Someone actually posted odds on teams to win the upcoming Little League World Series; I can’t even imagine wagering on 12-year old kids playing ball.

1) Minor league baseball game in Hartford CT Wednesday drew more fans than major league games in Tampa Bay or Miami.

Tampa Bay has a really good team, and smart people running that team; when they wind up in Montreal, Nashville or some other city, don’t want to hear any whining from Florida.

Saturday’s 6-pack
Major league leaders, hits:
144— Adam Frazier, SD
143— David Fletcher, LAA
142— Cedric Mullins, Balt
141— Trea Turner, LA
137— Vladimir Guerrero, Tor
136— Freddie Freeman, Atl/Jonathan Schoop, Det

Quote of the Day.
“To be honest with you I just don’t have the urge to play right now, I don’t know how I’ll feel in September, October, November moving forward but I just, today, I just don’t have the urge.”
Free agent WR Larry Fitzgerald, who has played 17 years in the NFL

Saturday’s quiz
Pete Rose had 3,358 hits with Cincinnati, the most of any Reds player; who is #2 on the Reds’ career hit list?

Friday’s quiz
Wrigley Field and Fenway Park are the two oldest ballparks in the major leagues; Dodger Stadium is the 3rd-oldest.

Thursday’s quiz
Urban Meyer has been head coach at four colleges: Bowling Green, Utah, Florida, Ohio State

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

Saturday’s Den: Clearing out a cluttered mind…….

13) NFL preseason games aren’t usually all that interesting, but Josh Allen isn’t playing for the Bills in Chicago Saturday afternoon, so Mitch Trubisky will play QB for Buffalo. Last four years, Trubisky was 29-21 as Chicago’s starting QB. The reunion could be interesting.

12) LA Dodgers do a hell of a job in player development:
— Max Muncy had .611 OPS in 96 games with the A’s.
Last four years, Muncy has a .909 OPS with the Dodgers.

— Justin Turner had a .696 OPS in four years with the Mets.
Last eight years, Turner has an .885 OPS for Los Angeles.

11) Braves 3, Orioles 0:
— Max Fried threw a 90-pitch complete game for his 4th straight win.
— Atlanta has won its last 11 road games.
— Orioles lost their 16th straight game, all by 2+ runs.

10) Seattle Mariners are 26-14 in one-run games this year, which is really good.

9) Phillies 4, Padres 3:
— San Diego has lost 8 of its last 9 games.
— Machado and two coaches were tossed in 8th inning for arguing balls/strikes.
— Reds and San Diego are now tied for 2nd Wild Card slot.

8) Dodgers 3, Mets 2
— Mets lost 7 of last 8 games- they scored 21 runs in last seven games.
— Mets trail Reds/San Diego by six games in Wild Card race.

7) Atlanta Braves signed C Travis d’Arnaud to a 2-year, $16M contract extension.

6) Good news for Milwaukee Bucks’ fans; their star player Giannis Antetokounmpo bought a small stake in baseball’s Milwaukee Brewers, a signal that he’ll be staying in Wisconsin for a while. Bucks also signed his brother Thanasis to a 2-year contract.

5) In 1992, Dallas Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy was the WR’s coach for the Pitt Panthers, not exactly a lucrative job. He also worked late at night as a toll collector on Pennsylvania Turnpike, and would study the Pitt playbook when there wasn’t any traffic.

4) Saw clips on Twitter Friday night; they’re already playing high school football in Tennessee. Must be nice and cool at those games.

3) Last five years, golfer Tony Finau has finished in the top 10 of 39 tournaments, but hasn’t won any of them. 39 top 10’s still adds up to a lot of money.

2) Few weeks ago, they announced that two people would host Jeopardy!, taking over for the later Alex Trebek; one of those people bowed out Friday, after word came out that the guy had previously made offensive statements.

What happens if they offer the job to Aaron Rodgers and he accepts it? Rodgers auditioned for the job earlier this year.

1) There was a story on the Interweb about the great actor Jack Nicholson, who is a huge Lakers fan. Back in the early 70’s he was filming the movie Chinatown, but when he was supposed to film one of his scenes, the Lakers were involved in a double overtime game.

Someone told director Roman Polanski that Nicholson wouldn’t come out of his trailer until the basketball game was over. “The game is in double overtime” Polanski was told.

“What the bleep in double overtime?” replied Polanski, obviously not a basketball fan.

Trivia: John Hillerman was also in Chinatown; he is best known for playing Higgins in Magnum PI

Sunday’s 6-pack
Major league leaders, strikeouts:
166— Joey Gallo, NYY
157— Matt Chapman, A’s
148— Shohei Ohtani, LAA
145— Javier Baez NYM, Adolis Garcia, Tex
144— Eugenio Suarez, Cinc
136— Brandon Lowe, TB

Quote of the Day.
“These guys are working hard. I made it clear the message was taken properly. The message was to keep working hard and [stay] together. We have a lot of good hitters that haven’t been as good as they were in the past and they’re working hard to get there.”
Mets manager Luis Rojas, on criticism from the team’s owner

Sunday’s quiz
Who has hit the most home runs in the history of the San Diego Padres?

Saturday’s quiz
Pete Rose had 3,358 hits with Cincinnati, the most of any Reds player; Barry Larkin is #2 on the Reds’ career hit list.

Friday’s quiz
Wrigley Field and Fenway Park are the two oldest ballparks in the major leagues; Dodger Stadium is the 3rd-oldest.

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

Sunday’s Den: Wrapping up a sports Saturday

13) Padres 4, Phillies 3 (10)
— Cronenworth hit Aaron Nola’s 117th pitch for a game-tying HR in the 9th
— Nola took a perfect game into the 7th; his brother caught for San Diego.
— Padres won game on a wild pitch in 10th inning.
— San Diego/Cincinnati are still tied for the second Wild Card slot.

12) Under is 22-8 in NFL preseason games this summer; so far this week, road teams are 11-2 against the spread.

11) By the way, there are no overtimes in preseason games. Rams were down 17-10 last night, scored a TD with 0:15 left, then went for two, rather than settle for a tie.

10) I’m watching the Chiefs play Friday night and Patrick Mahomes runs with the ball, which probably made Andy Reid queasy. Your star QB shouldn’t be playing, much less running with the ball, where he can be hit.

9) Astros outscored Seattle 27-4 the last two days; tough weekend so far for the Mariners.

8) Ravens 20, Panthers 3— Since 2018, Baltimore is 11-0 in exhibition games, 8-3 ATS.

7) Bills 41, Bears 15— Mitch Trubisky threw for 221 yards against his old team.

6) Rams have a defensive lineman named Eric Banks who played high school ball in the Memphis area; he played basketball for current Memphis Tigers’ coach Penny Hardaway.

5) August 21, 1982, the great relief pitcher Rollie Fingers recorded his 300th career save; back then, relief pitching was different that it is now.

Closers today generally pitch the 9th inning, that’s it. In Rollie Fingers’ five busiest seasons, he AVERAGED five outs an appearance. He once came into a World Series game in the 5th inning and didn’t get taken out until the 9th.

4) In Royals-Cubs game Saturday, a KC runner was ruled safe at home because Chicago’s catcher blocked the plate illegally on a throw home, the way catchers used to block the plate. First time I saw that call since they changed the rule a few years ago.

3) Auburn’s new football coach Bryan Harsin tested positive for COVID, will be isolating for a while.

2) Positive news and we can all use positive news; Wednesday-Friday, three days in a row, over a million people got vaccine shots all three days. The more people that get vaccinated, the sooner COVID will stop being such a problem.

1) Wild Card updates:
NL: Reds/Padres are tied for 2nd slot; St Louis is 4.5 games behind, Phillies are 5 behind.
AL: A’s lead Boston by half game for 2nd slot, Seattle by 4 games, Toronto by 4.5.
