All time is probably Sosa. I was 13 in 1998. Day games I would come home from school and tune in to WGN waiting to hear of Sosa homered that day. Recently is most of the 2016 team, with a few obvious exceptions. If you made me pick one it's probably Rizzo because he was the first glimmer of hope in the rebuild.

It appears the fight was real, the reason wasn’t. Sounds like a late hit on Fields.

In-Season Trades and Transactions

Eloy probably tweaked his back just thinking about packing his bags. -
Especially since they generally haven’t been very good for the entirety of the franchise.

Well the White Sox were winning tonight. Then the 8th inning happened and they gave up 2 solo homers and a grand slam. Now they're down 8-5 in the bottom of the 9th.
-
I’m honestly surprised it’s not higher considering we tend to play a lot of close lower scoring games due to good SP, bad hitting and a bad pen.

Fall of the house of Busch-er

Rays also. -
So what happened to Atlanta's offense this year? Sean Murphy went from .844 to .631 Matt Olson went from .993 to .699 Ozzie Albies went from .849 to .711 Orlando Arcia went from .741 to .577 Austin Riley went from .861 to .795 Michael Harris went from .808 to .653 Ronald Acuna went from 1.012 to .716 About the only guy doing better is Ozuna and he's only 67 points higher. It's not like it's an aging team either where you'd expect regression. Of those 7 guys, only Olson is age 30 or up and he's exactly 30.

2024 MLB Home Run Derby + All Star Game Thread
soccer10k replied to cl smooth's topic in General Baseball Talk
Because it was boring watching guys take pitch after pitch after pitch waiting for the perfect one, then only hitting like 4 home runs anyway. -
Spain deserved to win that game but Declan Rice is going to me rueing that chance right at the end. He was wide open and headed it right at the goalie.

Man we let Skenes go? Fire Jed for that one. LOL.

So you use xG to defend him against Jamaica but then ignore that against Uruguay? The team had 0.56 xG in a game they needed to win. Figure out a way to create, well, anything. As for that Jamaica game, I see 2.68 xG for the game which I’m assuming includes extra time. That means without the own goal, that number is much lower since two goals were scored in extra time.
-
They also needed a 96th minute own goal just to send a Nations League SF game to extra time in March. Yes the Weah red card wasn’t Berhalter’s fault, but it wasn’t just the Copa that got him fired. We also never looked like scoring against Uruguay in a game they didn’t need to win but we had to.

https://www.espn.com/tennis/story/_/id/40521796/wimbledon-2024-novak-djokovic-blasts-disrespect-centre-court-fans I'm convinced a decent part of Djokovic's success and drive to win more titles than Federer and Nadal is out of pure spite at tennis fans who, for the most part, have never and will never like him anywhere close to as much as they like the other two players. Probably the GOAT, but a very unlikable person.

The 5 France matches before today had a total of 4 goals, none of which came from open play. We had 3 goals, all from open play, in only 25 minutes today.
-
Uruguay-Brazil had 41 fouls and only 4 shots on goal. That seems less than ideal.

https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/40508897/twins-jose-miranda-ties-mlb-record-12th-straight-hit Guy from the Twins got a hit in 12 straight ABs, tying a ML record.

Columbia showing how a real team takes care of business against Panama.

Was talking to my dad about this last night and I 100% agree. Lewandowski does it too and I can't stand it. Like you said it's gone way too far.
-
Messi hit a Panenka off the crossbar and went over. Can't say I've seen someone hit one of those too high before.
-
Fun fact! Believe it or not, the 2024 Cubs have yet to be swept in a 3 or 4 game series this year. The only series they didn't win a game was that 2-gamer against St. Louis where Friday was rained out.

Seconds left in the game when he made this save.

How the horsefeathers is that not offside?

Ronaldo misses a penalty at the end of the first extra time period.

So that Bellingham guy…
