SHOW NOTES

* 377.

From what I can tell, Dusty Baker is a great manager who keeps getting let go from places? https://t.co/TAR75ce2mM

Ugh, Dusty Baker is always all about Dusty Baker. Maybe he should ask himself why he kept losing jobs and show some self-awareness that he was brought to Houston not for his managerial ability but to get the Astros through a PR disaster. https://t.co/pIGcXoFCSf

Lance Lynn threw 76 pitches. 74 of them were fastballs (97.4%), the highest fastball rate by any starting pitcher in a playoff game in the pitch tracking era (since 2008).

43:53: Bill Lazor Is Now PC1; Matt Nagy PC2.

When you look at the #Bears schedule, they're about to embark on an 11-game losing streak.

It's not as if the #Bears defense bent but didn't break today. They bent and then the #Lions broke.

52:06: Sky Eclipses Sun.

They went 16-16 in the regular season and were the No. 6 seed in the #WNBA Playoffs.

The Bulls gave fans at the United Center plenty to cheer in the preseason opener, showing off a harassing defense that led to fast break after fast break in a 131-95 rout of the Cavaliers.@JohnKeilman's story with @mandophotos.https://t.co/u0JpWilXx8
