Armadillo: Wednesday's six-pack

-- Ben Simmons signed with Nike, taking less money than adidas offered.

-- Colorado's rookie SS Trevor Story has 16 HRs, but only six of them have been at Coors Field.

-- Cubs' pitcher Kyle Hendricks is a scratch golfer.

-- Maryland's basketball team is 9-0-1 vs spread in its last 10 conference tournament games; Ohio State is 0-6-1 vs spread in its last seven.

-- Eight of last 12 Super Bowl champs made the playoffs again the next year; nine of 11 made it the second year, eight of last 13 the third year.

-- Compare that to Super Bowl losers; only four of last 15 made the playoffs the third year after that Super Bowl loss. It would appear as if winning a title helps in sustaining the success of the program over a period of time.

Armadillo: Wednesday's List of 13: Mid-week musings.......

13) Is a hot dog a sandwich? Inquiring minds want to know. Most people I've heard say no, but it is meat in between two pieces of bread, so those who argue "yes" have some ammunition on their side. Let me know what you think.

12) More hot dog banter: Everyone puts different stuff on hot dogs, but how in god's name can anyone eat sauerkraut? It is the single worst-tasting food I've ever eaten, narrowly beating about broccoli and beet greens, which are both terrible.

11) Remember when Noah Syndergaard got tossed for throwing behind Chase Utley at Citi Field a week ago Friday? Controversial call, and umpire Adam Hamari has not worked the plate again since that game- he makes his return behind the.plate tonight in Los Angeles, at the Colorado-Dodger game, 12 days later after the Syndergaard mess.

Did he get a week's suspension? No one is talking, but it looks that way.

10) Odd fact of the day: On September 12, 1969, Mets swept a doubleheader from the Pirates, winning both games 1-0. Both runs were driven in by Mets' pitchers.

9) Mets have scored least amount of runs they've ever scored at this point in season, despite hitting most HRs they've hit at this stage of the season, since 1989.

8) As a baseball fan, whether it be the A's or my fantasy team, I'd much rather my players had the four days of the All-Star break off, rather than being busy all week during the break, either in Home Run Derby or in the All-Star Game. Let 'em relax.

Still think that two years ago, when A's stumbled to a 22-33 finish, having six of their guys in All-Star Game contributed to their lame finish- they got tired. Plus, the stupid Cespedes trade didn't help any, either.

7) This from CBSSports.com: Scientists are in agreement that 22 hours without sleeping has been shown to cause cognitive and reactive impairment comparable to being legally drunk.

Not sure what it means if you stay up for 24 hours and you're also drinking heavily.

6) Tim Lineceum's first two starts for the Angels' AAA team: 10 IP, six hits, seven runs (five earned), five walks, 11 strikeouts. Most people think his next start will be for the Los Angeles Angels, who desperately need starting pitching.

5) In their long history, San Diego Chargers are 421-420-11 in regular season games, 11-17 in playoff games, losing their one and only Super Bowl appearance.

4) In his first five AAA rehab games since his suspension ended, Jose Reyes is 2-16 with four walks while batting second for Albuquerque.

3) Former Colorado closer Brian Fuentes was saying on Twitter Tuesday night that as a former closer, it was not the same when he came into a game if it wasn't a situation where he could get a save. Just not the same adrenaline rush, he said.

2) Yordano Ventura drilled Manny Machado in the fifth inning last night and a brawl erupted in Baltimore. Ventura is a noted head-hunter who rarely has to bat because he pitches in the American League. Machado is a hothead, too; both these guys have had scuffles with the A's in the last two years. Suspensions will follow.

1) RIP Sean Rooks, 46, who collapsed and died in a Philadelphia restaurant Tuesday night, hours after interviewing with the Knicks for an assistant coaching job. Rooks was a 12-year NBA veteran who played college ball at Arizona- he had been with the 76ers as an assistant coach specializing in player development. RIP, sir.

Wednesday's MLB Game of the Day: Red Sox at Giants
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Bumgarner is 6-0 with a 1.11 ERA in his last eight starts and opposes David Price, who makes his first appearance at AT&T Park in a battle of ace left-handers.

Boston Red Sox at San Francisco Giants (A: +100, H: -120, Total: 6.5)

The Boston Red Sox own the most prolific offense in baseball but will be put to a stern test Wednesday when they visit the first-place San Francisco Giants with red-hot Madison Bumgarner on the mound. Bumgarner is 6-0 with a 1.11 ERA in his last eight starts and opposes David Price, who makes his first appearance at AT&T Park in a battle of ace left-handers after Boston prevailed in the opener of the two-game series 5-3 in 10 innings Tuesday.

San Francisco catcher Buster Posey revealed he has been dealing with nerve irritation in his right thumb before missing his second straight game Tuesday and manager Bruce Bochy said his All-Star catcher might not play Wednesday. The Giants have lost three straight after seeing their five-game home winning streak halted, but still enjoy a three-game lead over the Los Angeles Dodgers in the National League West. Boston, which trails Baltimore by one-half game in the American League East, averages 5.9 runs per game. David Ortiz drove in a run as a pinch hitter Tuesday and manager John Ferrell is expected to keep his 40-year-old slugger in that role Wednesday as he seizes an opportunity to rest Ortiz without the benefit of a designated hitter in the NL park.

TV: 10:15 p.m. ET, NESN (Boston), CSN Bay Area (San Francisco)

INJURY REPORT:

Red Sox - DH D. Ortiz (Doubtful Wednesday, rest), C B. Swihart (15-Day DL, ankle), LF B. Holt (15-Day DL, concussion).

Giants - C B. Posey (Doubtful Wednesday, thumb), RF H. Pence (15-Day DL, hamstring), RP S. Romo (15-Day DL, elbow), LF A. Pagan (15-Day DL, hamstring).

WEATHER REPORT: It's going to be a typical San Francisco night for baseball tonight for the game between the Giants and Red Sox. Partly cloudy, cool temperatures (60's), high humidity (85 percent), and a 25 mph wind blowing straight out toward McCovey Cove in right field.

PITCHING MATCHUP: Red Sox LH David Price (7-2, 4.88 ERA) vs. Giants LH Madison Bumgarner (7-2, 1.91)

Price is also on a bit of roll as he is 3-1 in his last five turns — all quality starts — while lowering his ERA 1.87 during that span. The 30-year-old Tennessee native suffered his first loss in nearly a month with a 5-2 setback to Toronto on Friday when he allowed three runs (two earned) and a season-high four walks in seven innings. Price is 0-1 with a 3.06 ERA in two starts versus San Francisco, including a 5-4 loss facing Bumgarner and the Giants while with Detroit on Sept. 6, 2014.

Bumgarner, who has 13 career home runs including two this season and five in 2015, expressed his desire to participate in the Home Run Derby prior to the All-Star Game, but manager Bruce Bochy told Bumgarner he'll be sticking exclusively with his day job. The 26-year-old North Carolina native is doing that well as he matched a season high with 11 strikeouts in 7 2/3 innings of a 6-0 victory in Atlanta on Thursday. Bumgarner is 7-7 with a 3.76 ERA in 17 interleague starts, including a loss in his only outing against Boston during his rookie season of 2010, and has fared well against Hanley Ramirez (5-for-28, six strikeouts).

TRENDS:

* Red Sox are 9-2 in their last 11 interleague games.
* Giants are 5-0 in their last 5 games vs. a left-handed starter.
* Giants are 9-2 in Bumgarners last 11 home starts vs. a team with a winning record.
* Over is 7-0 in Red Sox last 7 vs. National League West.
* Red Sox are 5-1 in the last 6 meetings in San Francisco.
* Over is 4-0 in Timmons' last 4 games behind home plate.

CONSENSUS: 71 percent of the public are backing Bumgarner and the Giants in tonight's battle with Price and the Red Sox. Over 6.5 is picking up 57 percent of the totals wagers with the public not trusting the low 6.5 number with the wind blowing out.
