Armadillo: Sunday's Den: Wrapping up a sports Saturday

13) Arizona 7, San Diego 0:
— Rookie Tyler Gilbert throws a no-hitter in his first major league start.
— Last year at this time, Gilbert was working as an electrician with his father to make ends meet in Northern California.
— Only baserunners were three walks, all to Tommy Pham.
— Last guy to throw a no-hitter in his first MLB start? Bobo Holloman in 1953.

12) Meanwhile, San Diego has lost four games in a row, to Miami/Arizona and is letting lot of teams back in the NL Wild Card race.

11) Last 18 years, defending Super Bowl champs are 11-4-3 ATS in Week 1 the next year.

During same time, teams that lost Super Bowl are 4-14 ATS in Week 1 the next year.

10) Denver 33, Minnesota 6— Probably reading too much into this, but do the Vikings have internal problems, stemming at least partially from the Kirk Cousins/vaccine issue? They asked Mike Zimmer a softball question at halftime, and he was pretty blunt about how terrible the first half had been. Lot of starters sat out, but losing 33-6 at home is never a good thing.

With next week the 2nd/last preseason game, will be curious if more teams play their starters, or will lot of teams just wait until September 12 to get all their regulars on the field.

9) Dodgers 2, Mets 1 (10)— LA wins in extra innings for second night in row; coming into this weekend, they had lost 11 consecutive extra inning games.

8) St Louis Cardinals are 24-11 in games started by Wainwright/Flaherty, 36-45 in all their other games.

7) A reminder that in 2008, Detroit Lions went 4-0 in preseason, then went 0-16 during the regular season. Exhibition games don’t mean a lot, except for the players trying to earn jobs.

6) Chicago Bears are only NFL team that has never had a QB throw for 4,000+ yards in one season; closest they came was 1995, when Erik Kramer threw for 3,838 yards.

With season expanding to 17 games this season, figures that even the Bears will eventually have a 4,000-yard passer, although probably not this year, seeing how Andy Dalton figures to play some before Justin Fields becomes the starter later on in his rookie year.

5) I’m not a fan of Little League games being on national TV: lot of pressure for 11/12-year olds. I’d draw the national TV line at 13 years old and up. Kid screws up a game for his hometown team, and he might wind up like Dennis Hopper’s character in Hoosiers. Not good.

But having instant replay reviews for Little League games is nonsensical, just unnecessary.

4) In his career, White Sox closer Liam Hendriks has pitched 20 innings against the Bronx Bombers; he’s given up 21 runs.

3) A’s 3B Matt Chapman is having a rough year with the bat, but Thursday in Cleveland, he walked five times in a game, scoring three runs. What do you say to your pitchers when they walk a guy five times who is batting .215?

Chapman hit two homers Saturday, after I wrote this, so hopefully he will finish the season strong and help the A’s make the playoffs.

2) Los Angeles Clippers are building an arena for $1B that is scheduled to open for the 2024-25 season. Guy who owns the Clippers is worth $53B; guess he doesn’t like paying rent in the Staples Center.

1) Major League Baseball needs to market its product better; they made a big fuss out of the game in Iowa the other night, they got their best TV ratings for a regular season game since 2005, but fact of the matter is that in Iowa, six big league teams have their games blacked out there. Twins, Brewers, Royals, Cardinals and the two Chicago teams.

End the blackout; expose the game to as many people as possible, so they can see what an excellent game it is. Quit being arrogant jerks and do your job, market your product!!!
