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

Sunday’s Den: Wrapping up a sports Saturday

13) Good news for baseball fans in Canada; Blue Jays return to Toronto July 30, their first true home game since 2019.

12) Bucks 123, Suns 119:
— Milwaukee leads series, 3-2
— Phoenix led by 16 in the first half.
— Suns were minus-16 in 6:00 that Devin Booker was on bench.

11) Atlanta Braves are 37-6 this season when they lead after 7 innings; that sounds good, until you realize that they were 23-0 last season, when they led after 7 innings. Atlanta is 8-20 this season in games where the winning run scores in last three innings.

When recently-acquired Stephen Vogt goes behind the plate for Atlanta in the next few days, he’ll become the 7th catcher the Braves have used this season.

10) Cubs 4, Arizona 2— Willson Contreras hit game-winning homer in 9th inning, sending the Snakes to their 52nd loss in last 62 games.

9) Padres’ 2B Jake Cronenworth hit for cycle Friday night, first player since Brooks Robinson in 1960 to play in the All-Star Game, then hit for the cycle in his first regular season game after the All-Star Game. Those two and Joe DiMaggio are only three players to do it.

8) Who is the Houston Texans’ starting QB? It is July 18, and no one seems to know. ESPN’s Adam Schefter wrote Friday that he thinks Deshaun Watson is done in Houston- if that is true, then Tyrod Taylor would likely be Houston’s starting QB in Week 1.

7) Cincinnati Bengals’ QB coach is a guy named Dan Pitcher, an unusual name for a QB coach, but it could be worse. There have been big league pitchers named:

Bob Walk, Homer Bailey, Grant Balfour.

6) Angels have a new TV play-by-play guy; Rich Waltz, who did Marlins’ game for lot of years. He is really good at his job- he also does college hoop on CBS Sports Network. Major upgrade for Angels games, fur sure.

5) Brandon Staley is the new head coach of the Chargers; five years ago, he was the defensive coordinator at John Carroll U, a D-3 program in Ohio. Life moves fast…….

4) Last three years, New Jersey Jets are 5-19 SU on road, 8-16 ATS; last two years, Jets are 0-4 ATS as a favorite. This year they have a new coach and they figure to be starting a rookie QB, so it could be another long year, but at least one that could build to a positive future.

3) Vikings play their home games in a dome now, but their last two road games this year are at Chicago December 20, at Green Bay January 2nd, both night games. Brilliant scheduling.

2) When Jacksonville Jaguars visit Seattle on Halloween, Seahawks’ last two OC’s will be in the visitors’ coaching booth. Brian Schottenheimer, Darren Bevell both work for the Jaguars now; do they have any special insight into defending Russell Wilson?

1) There are few series this weekend where teams are playing each other who also played each other the series before the All-Stsr Game: Mets-Pirates, Angels-Seattle, Reds-Brewers, Tigers-Twins. Not sure why they did it that way. Three of those four matchups are division rivalries.

Quote of the Day.
“Life is not always a matter of holding good cards, but sometimes, playing a poor hand well.”
Jack London

Monday’s quiz
When the Milwaukee Bucks won their only NBA title in 1971, who did they beat in the Finals?

Sunday’s quiz
Kansas City Royals were a 1969 expansion team; the A’s moved out of Kansas City after the ’67 season, creating a void the Royals filled.

Saturday’s quiz
Tony LaRussa has managed the White Sox, A’s, Cardinals

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

Monday’s Den: Wrapping up a sports weekend

13) Mets 7, Pirates 6:
— Michael Conforto hit the game-winning homer in the 9th inning.
— Pittsburgh scored 6 runs in first inning, never scored again.
— Travis Blankenhorn homered for the Mets, the 451st player to do that.
— Mets TV guy Gary Thorne called Conforto’s home run Sunday; back in 2004, while working for ESPN, Thorne called a home run that Conforto hit in the Little League World Series.

12) Milwaukee Bucks try to win the NBA title at home Tuesday night, so the Brewers moved their home game with Kansas City to Tuesday afternoon.

11) If you to make a money line wager on the Super Bowl, it is AFC -130, NFC +110.

10) Only 10 of 32 NFL teams have the same head coach they had four years ago.

9) Texas Longhorns fired HC Tom Herman last winter, after he went 32-18 in four years, 22-13 in Big X games, 4-0 in bowls; Herman is now an assistant coach with the Chicago Bears.

8) White Sox P Carlos Rodon has three games this season with 10+ strikeouts and no walks; before this season, in 92 career starts, he had done that once.

7) Atlanta Braves are actually trying to compete for a playoff spot; they acquired Joc Peterson and Stephen Vogt to fortify their lineup. 12 days til the trade deadline; what else will happen?

6) Jockeys at Saratoga were telling TV guys that they think racehorses are running faster this year, with fans back in the stands. Hopefully the horses I wager on Wednesday will be thrilled by my presence and will run very, very fast.

5) Saturday, the Cubs used five pitchers in their 4-2 win at Arizona; all five pitchers walked the first batter they faced, the first time that has happened in a big league game since Texas used five pitchers who also walked their first batter in a game at Toronto in June, 1980.

4) Fantasy baseball update; over the last five weeks, the catchers who were active on my fantasy team have gone a combined 3 for 55. Thats an .055 batting average. Not good.

3) SEC football media days are on TV during the day this week; if it never stops raining here, it could provide some interesting daytime TV viewing, as coaches try to be sociable and convince people they’re not workaholic control freaks. Good luck there.

2) Odd Fact of the Day: El Paso, Texas is 746 miles from Houston, Texas; El Paso is actually closer to San Diego (725 miles) than it is to Houston. Go figure.

1) If the baseball playoffs started today (they don’t):
NL: Mets, Brewers, Giants. Wild Card: San Diego @ Los Angeles
AL: Red Sox, White Sox, Astros. Wild Card: Oakland @ Tampa Bay
