Well, if the Atlanta Braves wanted to enter the huge weekend series in Philadelphia on a serious roll, they’ll have to just settle for a slight roll instead.

I thought I’d share a bit of that because it leads into our prompt for today. It started with Brady ironically using the Giants’ slogan: “It doesn’t get more […]
One thing about aces is that while they’re usually the best card, in some rare games, they’re the lowest. That’s what happened Tuesday in Pittsburgh, when reigning Cy Young winner Paul Skenes faced off against three-time All-Star and one-time pitching WAR second-place finisher Logan Webb.
