Kevin McGonigle will win a batting title someday.

I'm really glad you liked it. King is a fantastic album. Her solo record Lovesongs for Underdogs is also very good.

Start with Not Too Soon.

LIV is basically the Michael Scott Paper Company at this point.

Play the entire King album from Belly. Here's one track, not the best one but plenty good, starts off as sleepy lullaby rock but goes up tempo power pop in second half, hooky as hell. Tanya Donelly is an angel. open.spotify.com/track/5lTSWp...

Sal Stewart, league tilter.

I guess Justin Rose is trending towards the British Jim Furyk. Likable if somewhat boring, uber-consistent, a ball-striking savant but somehow is going to retire with just one U.S. Open among the majors. And a lot of whiffs in big moments.

Cameron Young getting some Ben Crenshaw 1995 breaks.

When Sam Burns is the weakest guy on a Masters leaderboard, that's pretty damn great.

RIP Davey Lopes. A fine ballplayer and part of a legendary Dodgers infield. And one of the best base-running coaches of all time.

Alex Karaban could play on my team anytime. Winner.

If you had to drive cross country with a Connecticut basketball coach, who would you pick?

That was a Marcus Paige shot.

I assume they're playing Guns and Roses for Yaxel.

Randy Moss on the Titans. Adrian Peterson on any non-Minnesota team.

It's not difficult to be gracious when you win, although occasionally some people still get that wrong.

True character is revealed by how you handle losing, or not getting what you want.

We always knew who Geno Auriemma was. He just made it undeniably obvious tonight.

Kevin McGonigle should bat first or second the rest of the year.

Five games and he'll have it.

So many things in sports come off set pieces, but the greatness that comes through the flow of the game is the most satisfying. Still buzzing from that UConn comeback.

I think he's a good coach but he's never a long-term solution.

Cassidy out. Torts in. The shelf life on pro hockey coaches, even good ones, is crazy short.

No idea why Michigan hasn't benched everybody yet.

True, obviously. But he is something.

He's fun. Just stay healthy, kid.

Every Kevin McGonigle at-bat is a poem.

Kevin McGonigle continues to rip the ball. He just hit what looked like a home run, Jackson Merrill made a great catch to take it back.

You get the idea, as the saying goes, this Giants team could take batting practice in the ballroom and not harm a chandelier.

And DeLauter goes deep again. We'll write about it in the morning. The rookies took over the day.

Jamal Mashburn and Jalen Rose are doing a much better job on their set than the TBS guys.

And Murakami, and DeLauter. It's been some kind of day for the kids.
