Polanco hit a full-count pitch from Derek Holland to left field for his 12th homer of the season. Catcher Jake Rogers had given the Tigers a 9-8 lead with a grand slam in the top of the ninth, but Twins catcher Ben Rortvedt tied it with a solo shot in the bottom half. Tyler Duffey pitched a scoreless 10th to get the win. White Sox 7, Orioles 4 – F/10 – Engel's HR in 10th propels White Sox to season sweep of O's Adam Engel hit a three-run homer in the 10th inning and the Chicago White Sox rolled into the All-Star break with a 7-5 victory over Baltimore to complete a season sweep of the Orioles. Andrew Vaughn homered twice for the White Sox, who have won five in a row and 10 of 13 overall. Chicago leads the AL Central by eight games over Cleveland. The White Sox went 7-0 against Baltimore this season. It is the first time in franchise history Chicago has swept a season series of at least seven games against any team, according to the Elias Sports Bureau. Pinch-hitter Trey Mancini's two-out, two-homer run in the Orioles ninth made it 4-all. The O's have lost four in a row. Cardinals at Cubs – PPD, Rain – Cardinals-Cubs postponed by rain, to be made up in September Rain caused the Cubs and Cardinals to be postponed in Chicago.

Davis, promoted to Double-A on June 1, sent a fourth-inning fastball from Minnesota's Josh Winder to the trees beyond the center field wall, then hit a slider from Baltimore's Marcos Diplan to left in the sixth, combining with Alvarez for consecutive home runs. MLB – 2021 MLB Draft – Davis, Leiter, Jobe lead top 10 picks at MLB draft The Pittsburgh Pirates selected Louisville catcher Henry Davis with the first pick in baseball's amateur draft, with the Texas Rangers then taking Vanderbilt pitcher Jack Leiter. Detroit followed with high school right-hander Jackson Jobe, Boston grabbed high school shortstop Marcelo Mayer and Baltimore rounded out the top five with college outfielder Colton Cowser.

How the f**k did Eve Wulf start out as an intern for Sports Illustrated and end up working for ESPN, helping produce films and miniseries including “The Last Dance” just a year later? Today, we’re chatting with Eve Wulf about her background in sports (she comes from a huge sports family with her dad being ESPN Senior Writer Steve Wulf and her twin sister playing hockey at Middlebury college). We also talk about her time at Bucknell University, where Eve was a research Intern at the Elias Sports Bureau and an editorial intern for Sports Illustrated. She also spent some time writing on campus and learned the importance of storytelling both in film and through writing. So how did Eve successfully make the jump from college into her first job at ESPN? And how do the Wulf twins compare when it comes to hockey?

He survived and went on to become an acclaimed film producer who won an Academy Award along with Steven Spielberg in 1994 for Schindler’s List (1993). Ron Leibman was the film, television, and Broadway actor who won a 1993 Tony Award for his portrayal of Roy Cohn in Angels in America. Irving Burgie was the songwriter who wrote some of the most well-known Caribbean folk songs of the 1950’s for Harry Belafonte. As head of the Elias Sports Bureau for many decades, Seymour Siwoff was the guru of sports statistics in America.

Play ball! Having a career in baseball for over 30 years just sounds like a great way to earn a living, and my guest today on the #MakeYourMark podcast, Jeff Idelson, has been the President of the National Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown NY for 11 years! Not only has he presided over an exciting time in baseball history, but he’s made his impact on America’s pastime, and he has great stories to tell! “I got the Yankees job in December of ‘88, and I go to a kick-off cocktail party before the team is going to spring training in ‘89, I was 24 years old and he is there, and I walked right up to him and said, ‘Hey Mr. Steinbrenner, I want to introduce myself to you. I’m Jeff Idelson, I’m your new assistant PR Director.’ He puts his hands on my shoulders, and says ‘Good to have you! You’re that young man from Detroit, aren’t you?’  I said ‘No sir, I’m the young man from Boston!’ and he said ‘Great to have you on board, I have three words of advice for you. Rent, don’t buy!’. I nodded my head, you know, the sage advice from your new boss. Working for him was incredibly rewarding, very difficult guy to work for, a guy who was focused on winning, focus on putting together a product, and we were terrible when I was there. But I learned a lot from him about just being ahead of the curve, how to anticipate, how to manage relationships, it was tough love but it was perfect for me at that age.” Jeff’s career in baseball has spanned from selling hotdogs in Fenway Park, to working for the Boss, George Steinbrenner, and 25 years in Cooperstown, and we cover a wide range of baseball topics, including the chances of Pete Rose along with those suspected of steroid use to be inducted into the Hall, and the incredible HOF Class of ‘19! “I remember having a conversation with a guy named Seymour Siwoff, who bought the Elias Sports Bureau 60 years ago, in fact he still runs it, he’s like 98 now, great guy, but you want to talk about a different era. He calls me on a Saturday morning 7 o'clock and I was like, why is my phone ringing, I don’t work for the team anymore! He says ‘Hi Jeff, it’s Seymour!’ This was in 1994, the internet was just being born and he says, ‘You know I've donated every day-by-day for every player in the history of baseball to your library’ and these are giant ledger books, it’s the statistics for every guy, and he says, ‘I understand you’re going to put all those things on the internet.’ And I said, ‘Seymour, that’s the furthest thing on my mind! All that I am trying to do is to drag people to Cooperstown!’ and he says ‘Good! The internet is a fad, it’s like the hula hoop, it’s going to be gone in a few years!’” This episode was special for me as it stirred up some great memories I have within baseball, including Little League, trading baseball cards, and attending the Hall of Fame in Cooperstown. This is a perfect listen for the season! “Pete Rose is a good example. When I came to the Hall in 1994, the big topic was Pete, who back in ‘91 had been banned by baseball. Arguably one of the top hitters of all time, and here you have a Hall of Fame without the all-time hits leader! But baseball’s rules for election don’t consider players who are on the ineligible list, which Pete was on and is still today, and he did nothing to show he belonged in the Hall. As you walk into every clubhouse, as I have done, and the first thing you see is, ‘Don’t Gamble on Baseball’, and Pete admitted to gambling on baseball. Now you have legalized gambling on baseball, you have casinos involved on a tangential level, yet I don’t see his candidacy changing.” “I am trying to make sure the game remains relevant to the younger generations, and it’s challenging, because you have a sport that is tried and true to its traditions, we don’t like to change things very often, and the game is a game of beauty.  But as we talked about growing up, and we wondered why we love baseball so much, well, the reality is that we did not have a lot of choices, and kids and adults today have a lot of choices, and that’s why you see maybe the interest in baseball waning.” Some Topics we talk about in this episode: Introduction - 2:03 Gravitating into Baseball - 3:13 Landing with the Red Sox - 5:37 Working With the Enemy, the Yankees - 8:46 Taking Advice From The Boss - 11:58 Changing My Lifestyle - 13:37 The Hall of Fame! - 14:58 I Am The Baby Boomer - 17:01 Becoming President - 20:14 Old Timer's Game - 23:18 Should Pete Rose be in The Hall? - 29:23 What would you change in Baseball? - 30:59 It’s All About Power! - 32:31 Wrap-up and Takeaways - 37:50 How to get involved Be sure to connect with me on Social Media @MarkMoyerCoach and go to my website, www.markmoyer.com to get access to the tips and strategies that my coaching clients get directly.

Alternate title: Goose Gossage is an Ass Part 2.  Based on a Bleacher Report article around the “greats of the game” commenting on baseball new “all or nothing” type of play. More strikeouts than hits in this year’s season for the first time ever. These interesting stats, Chip and Cern’s thoughts and more on this episode of the Chip and Cern Show.   From Bleacher Report:   Hall of Famers are not the only ones voicing their displeasure with an all-or-nothing game in which:   • The ball is not put in play in roughly a third of all plate appearances, 31.6 percent of which end in a strikeout, walk or hit batter. • The .248 MLB batting average is the lowest since 1972, the season before the American League instituted the designated hitter, when it was .244. • There were more strikeouts than hits in a month for the first timein MLB history in April and, through early August, MLB had accumulated more strikeouts than hits overall. The race is on for whether it will happen in a full season for the first time. • Through Saturday, the combined rate of strikeouts, walks and home runs across the game was 33.6 percent. According to the Elias Sports Bureau, since strikeouts were first recorded in both leagues in 1913, there have been only six seasons in which strikeouts, walks and home runs have accounted for at least 30 percent of all plate appearances, and all of them have occurred since 2012.   • Defensive chances over the past two years have declined to the fewest in history—36.7 per game this year and last year, the first time that figure's ever dipped below 37.0. While we arguably have some of the greatest athletes ever on the field today—Hall of Famer Brooks Robinson has little over the Colorado Rockies' Nolan Arenado and Oakland Athletics' Matt Chapman, just as one example—they're not on display as often as they could be. • Strategies like the hit-and-run and stolen base attempt (at their lowest per-game average since 1964, according to Elias) have become endangered species. • Rules changes have eliminated the takeout slide at second base and the collision with the catcher at home plate. • Emotion and energy is being drained from the game one replay and administrative move at a time (see above re: takeout slides and home plate collisions). Games are averaging about three hours in length and replays almost one-and-a-half minutes per review, according to Maury Brown in a story written for Forbes.comin April.   Baseball has changed a ton in the last 10 years.

Odell Beckham is an emotional young man. Whether he's warming up before a game, making plays on the field, squabbling with opponents, or venting on the sideline, the Giants star is always a spectacle. Beckham was especially emotive on the day of his much-awaited rematch with Josh Norman. Beckham put up his typically stellar numbers, but was held out of the end zone for the third straight game and was unable to save the Giants from a damaging 29-27 loss. Here's the full Odell experience, complete with a private 1-on-1 "Chill, bruh" stopover by Uncle Eli.

Established in 2006, the Seton Hall Sports Poll is the nation's only college-based poll addressing issues of the day from the world of sports. Sponsored by The Sharkey Institute and emanating from the college's renowned Still School of Business, the poll has surveyed the nation's populous on matters of interest, such as PED use, gambling, public funding, payments to college athletes, effectiveness of sports officials, popularity of key sports figures, and much more. As colleges like Marist and Quinnipiac survey political questions, Seton Hall provides valuable insights for sponsors, governmental leaders, sports officials and fans.' The poll meets all criteria for polling standards, including wide spread use of cellphone calling, which makes certain to include younger people in the samplings.  The call are randomly dialed across the country and weighted as required to deliver accepted standard results, usually with a 3-4% margin of error. The poll is directed by Rick Gentile, former Vice President of CBS Sports and a member of the Seton Hall faculty.  Rick began his career at the Elias Sports Bureau, his first immersion into the statistics that are sports.
