"The way the game was going we had been in a drought so I thought maybe I needed to be a little more aggressive," Black said about his 10-point fourth quarter. | | | | | John Hammond has seen it all. He's coached in high school, college and the NBA. He's been through rebuilds; he's won championships. He's hit big on draft picks (see Giannis Antetokounmpo); he's missed big (see Darko Milicic). | | | | | The NBA has a new trophy to play for, and some bonus cash for the teams that make the knockout round. | | | | | The 6-1 junior from Trenton — about 30 miles west of Gainesville — is projected to go No. 2 to the Washington Nationals or No. 3 to the Detroit Tigers. He may even go No. 1 to the Pittsburgh Pirates, according to most recent mock-ups. | | | | | The host Monarchs, unbeaten in their last seven games, took the lead in the 23rd minute. | | | | | Peterson becomes the sixth commitment the Knights have received in the past week and the fifth to come from the state of Georgia. | | | | | The 2020 Cup Series champion has endured too much adversity in 2023 to assume he'll extend his streak of 7 consecutive appearances in the NASCAR playoffs. | | | | | Since rolling to a 27-6 record on May 5, the Rays are a very pedestrian 30-29 and their once-comfortable AL East lead over Baltimore is down to 2 games. | | | | | The Marlins added to a club best with their 52nd win before the All-Star break. | | | | | It's second no-hitter in the majors this season after Domingo Germán's perfect game for the Yankees at Oakland on June 28 and it's the majors' first combined no-hitter since three Houston pitchers shut down the Yankees in June 2022. | | | |
