Twins 7, White Sox 2 – Kepler, Polanco power Twins past AL Central-leading Chicago Max Kepler homered in his second straight game, Jorge Polanco also went deep, and the Minnesota Twins beat the Chicago White Sox 7-2 on Wednesday night. The Twins beat the AL Central leaders for just the fourth time in 16 games. They bounced back after Chicago rallied late to win Tuesday's game and came out on top after losing five of six. Michael Pineda (4-5) went five innings, allowing one run and four hits, in his first win since May 26. Cardinals 3, Cubs 2 – F/10 – Molina lifts Cards to 3-2 win over Cubs in 10 innings Yadier Molina doubled home the winning run against All-Star closer Craig Kimbrel in the 10th inning to give the St. Louis Cardinals a 3-2 victory over the Chicago Cubs.

Mercedes announced his decision on Instagram on Wednesday. He posted an image of the words “it's over.” NBA – NBA Finals up over last year, but post 4th-lowest average Television ratings for the NBA Finals and playoffs posted sizable increases over last year. But that was the only good news for the NBA as far as viewer numbers. The six-game series between the Milwaukee Bucks and Phoenix Suns averaged 9.91 million viewers, a 32% increase over last year's series between the Los Angeles Lakers and Miami Heat, which also went six games. However, the average makes it the fourth-lowest since 1997. Milwaukee's 105-98 victory over Phoenix on Tuesday night attracted the most viewers in the series, averaging 12.52 million. NBA – Title rewards Antetokounmpo's decision to commit to Bucks This could have been the offseason in which Giannis Antetokounmpo entered the free-agent market and potentially joined forces with another superstar player to try winning multiple titles together. Antetokounmpo will spend the summer celebrating a title instead. Leading the Milwaukee Bucks to their first championship in half century rewarded Antetokounmpo for his December decision to sign a supermax extension with them. Antetokounmpo averaged 35.2 points, 13.2 rebounds and 5 assists to help the Bucks beat the Phoenix Suns 4-2 in the NBA Finals.

The Cubs offense is, again, historically bad, so we have to talk about it, but we also talk about fun things like friend of the pod Justin Steele’s impressive MLB debut. Steele, Wieck & Strop joined the team after three relievers were put on the Covid IL (Adam, Workman, Winkler).

Baseball season is nigh and man are we excited for the Cubs upcoming season! The baseball crew is back together with Andy, Kyle and Sam and they try to gin up some enthusiasm for what sure looks like the final promise of a Cubs run of dominance landing with a big, wet, thud. If the Cubs can't even pretend to want to keep Anthony Rizzo, what are we supposed to get fired up about? But they look ahead to the Cubs slugging it out with like minded and like talented teams in the NL Central where contention seems to be a foregone conclusion because nobody seems to really want to win all that badly. How many wins can we expect? Why are Eric Sogard and Matt Duffy even around? Where is Joc's platoon partner? There are a lot of questions and not as many answers. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/desipio/message

Most people associate Rapsodo with pitching, but in this episode, MLB infielder Eric Sogard joins Seth and BP to talk about how he incorporates data into his training as a hitter. They talk about his approach in the cage, training with velocity, and how his college days at Arizona State molded him into the player and person he is today.
What's your favorite kind of taco? No particular reason, just wondering. Mine is al pastor. This week! We discuss the KBO champion NC Dinos and their humongous sword, which is thematically appropriate given that we are honoring nerd power with a podcast dedicated to the one and only Eric Sogard. That's right! The Arizona State alumnus and utility infielder extraordinaire. It was a real trip to discover I'd been Mandela'd regarding Eric's run at Face of the MLB in 2014, but I maintain he is the rightful winner of that particular contest. Elsewhere in the podcast, we discuss LASIK surgery, what makes a Padres name, and the future of the Pittsburgh Pirates. I hope you enjoy this podcast as much as I enjoy a delicious al pastor taco on a hot summer's day.

Kenta Maeda pitched extraordinarily well Tuesday. He struck out eight straight batters, a new team record. He carried a no-hitter into the 9th inning before Eric Sogard hit a bloop single to centerfield. Maeda was pulled for Rogers with one on, no outs and a 3-0 lead. Rogers gave up a double and then walked Christian Yelich. Keston Hiura proceeded to single, then the Twins committed an error trying to turn a double play, and Milwaukee tied it up at 3.The game lasted 12 innings thanks to Caleb Thielbar and Jorge Alcalá coming in clutch from the bullpen. Taking advantage of the new extra-innings rule, Byron Buxton began the 12th on second base and ended up scoring on a Jorge Polanco swinging bunt. The Twins won 4-3. The game was an emotional rollercoaster and will go down as one of the best in recent memory.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors! Rock AutoAmazing selection. Reliably low prices.

Managing to barely keep the clean rating, it's the first of a podcast triple-header!A.J. Andrews paces herself by grading other aspects of the Blue Jays' trade deadline moves. She gives good reviews to what the team got for Eric Sogard, Daniel Hudson and David Phelps, while she has to adjust her mark on the Marcus Stroman deal given news that Minnesota wanted a chance to top the Mets' offer.However, there is no mercy on Toronto's final move of the day, a three-player package to Houston that netted them Derek Fisher. The host is relentless in blasting the front office for poor asset management and sheer impatience to move assets that were clearly distressed. Basically, she is not happy.Follow the podcast on Twitter @LockedOnJays and follow the host @A_J_Andrews!Subscribe on Himalaya, Google Play, Spotify, and iTunes!This episode is sponsored by Jays From the Couch, Bombas, BlueChew and the Locked On Podcast Network.

Another week of the off-season is over and that means another week closer to the 2018 Brewers season. This week, the Crew brings back both pitcher Chase Anderson and infielder Eric Sogard. Are those good moves? Matt Pauley will give his take. This week's featured guest is Tim Muma of Brew Crew Ball. Tim broached the subject this week of potentially trading shortstop Orlando Arcia. Tim will explain that column to Matt and talk about the rest of the Brewers news of the week.
After going 4-4 in the Crew's 6-2 win over the Padres, Eric Sogard joined Matt Pauley to talk about the game.
