Single by Chris Taylor with 2 outs in 9th spoils gem by Braves’ LHP

Sean Newcomb has been one of the main reasons for the Atlanta Braves’ resurgence in 2018, and on Sunday the 25-year-old left-hander came within one strike of a no-hitter in beating the Dodgers on at SunTrust Park in Atlanta.

Newcombe struck out eight and had a 2-2 count on Chris Taylor with two outs in the ninth inning, before Taylor grounded a ball past a diving Johan Camargo at third base for the first hit of the game for Los Angeles. Читать дальше...

She went nuclear!

The three-point shootout was an absolute stunner at the 2018 WNBA All-Star game, with Chicago Sky guard Allie Quigley winning her second consecutive title in overtime over Las Vegas Aces guard Kayla McBride. Quigley went entirely nuclear in the final round, scoring 29 out of a total 39 points.
