Armadillo: Tuesday's six-pack

-- Golden State Warriors were 73-9 in regular season, 15-9 in playoffs.

-- Braves' 1B Freddie Freeman was 17-31 last week with eight RBI in seven games.

-- Trevor Story swung and missed at a pitch last night that hit him in the shoulder; I've never seen that happen before. He hit a homer on the next pitch.

-- ESPN had to be thrilled that Steven Strasburg (back) got scratched from last nite's start; they had promoted Strasburg vs Kershaw national TV game all weekend.

-- Tigers 8, Mariners 7 (12)-- Melvin Upton hit a walkoff homer for Detroit.

-- Rockies 5, Marlins 3-- Game set MLB record for most runs scored in a game, if all the runs came on solo home runs. Reynolds and Ozuna both homered twice.

Armadillo: Tuesday's List of 13: Nobody asked me, but.......

13) Awkward Christmas Department: On June 20, 1997, the Cincinnati Reds called Aaron Boone up to make his major league debut; to make room on the roster for him, the Reds sent Bret Boone back to the minor leagues. His brother.

12) Donald Trump fired his campaign manager Monday; someday there will be a movie made about all this and it will be wildly entertaining, although I'm not sure if there is an actor out there who could pull off portraying Trump.

The Republican convention in Cleveland should be momentous; its setting up to be quite a year on Lake Erie, with the Cavaliers winning their first title, the Indians being in first place and the chaos of the Republican party headed their way next month.

11) Speaking of which, Cavaliers' team plane took a detour to Las Vegas on its way home from Oakand Sunday night. Team did some partyng at the Wynn Casino, before getting back to Ohio Monday afternoon. Winning is fun.

10) Senators failed to pass legislation that would have made it illegal for suspected terrorists to buy guns; If these nitwits don't tighten gun laws, they should all be fired on the spot, every one of them-- they're expensive and totally bleeping useless.

Seriously, who votes against a law that says suspected terrorists can't buy guns? .

9) Pretty cool scene in Chicago last night; Pitt's new basketball coach Kevin Stallings was at Wrigley Field, watching his son Jacob catch for the Pirates in his MLB debut. Young Stallings played his college baseball at noth Carolina; he was born in Lawrence, kansas when his dad was an assistant coach for the Jayhawks.

8) Matt Holliday's brother Josh coaches Oklahoma State's baseball team, which is in the College World Series for first time since 1999; their father Tom was the coach back then. In between, the Cowboys were coached by Brett Anderson's dad; had to be a little awkward when Anderson, Matt Holliday were teammates in Oakland in 2009.

7) Stanford's football schedule is hard this year; its three non-league games are Notre Dame/Kansas State/Rice and the Rice game is the last game of the year. Cardinal has to play USC-UCLA-Washington on consecutive Saturdays in September.

6) Have to admit, since daytime TV during the week is so awful, sometimes I wind up watching re-runs of NFL games on NFL Network. I often spend NFL Sundays, watching 5-6 games on one screen, so i don't hear much of hat is being said, so it is interesting to listen to what is being said, seeing if I can pick up anything of note.

5) Three women dressed as nuns were at Phillies game Monday afternoon, taking selfies, drinking Miller Lite and later dancing on the Phillies dugout during the 7th inning stretch with the Philly Phanatic. Turns out they are actresses in a play about nuns and were in costume to promote the play.

4) There is an actor named Oliver Platt; he's been in a lot of stuff-- he was a lawyer in the John Grisham movie, A Time to Kill. Platt was actually related to Princess Di-- his grandmother and Princess Di's grandfather were brother/sister.

3) Staten Island-Brooklyn opened the NY-Penn League season last week by playing a 20-inning game, then played extra innings again the next night. Players who just got drafted aren't used to hitting with wood bats-- its not as much fun, so you wind up with a lot of low-scoring games at that level.

2) Mets scored total of two runs in Jacob deGrom's last four starts; he hasn't won a game since April and his body language is beginning to look that way.

1) Wouldn't you love to know what David Blatt was thinking Sunday night, while the Cavaliers won their first NBA title, after firing Blatt this season, despite the team having a 30-11 record. Winning an NBA title with a neophyte head coach increases a notion that, for better or worse, the NBA is so much of a player-driven league.
