Texas Rangers right fielder Adolis Garcia had himself a night against the Las Vegas — whoops, sorry— Oakland A’s, blasting a trio of homers in an 18-3 rout.
The first of the three homers came in the first inning. An absolute bomb, 432 feet into the left field upper deck.

Touch ’em, all. Get used to doing that too.
The second homer of the evening came in the bottom of the third inning with the Rangers already up 9-3 on Oakland (not a good night for those fellas).

The Kawhi Leonard-Paul George era is slipping away in a sea of injuries. One win from elimination, LA may need to consider a new long-term plan.

Chris Paul extolled the talent of the Suns, saying his teammates him helped get him loose for 12 points in the fourth quarter, fueling Phoenix to a 3-1 series lead over the Clippers.

Sticking to his “next-man-up mentality,” Russell Westbrook scored 14 of his 37 points in the final 10 minutes Saturday in Los Angeles, but couldn’t rescue the short-handed Clippers from a Game 4 defeat at the hands of the Phoenix Suns.

Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant, who missed Game 2 due to a bruised right hand, will return to the starting lineup for Saturday night’s Game 3 against the Los Angeles Lakers.

Chaos took over Game 3 of the first-round series between the Maple Leafs and Lightning. After Brayden Point was shaken up following a collision with Morgan Rielly, Tampa Bay forward Nikita Kucherov could be seen flying in to defend his teammate, taking Toronto’s defenseman to the ice.
Meanwhile, Leafs and Bolts players began squaring up, including Auston Matthews and Steven Stamkos.
The two superstars were in each other’s faces when they began throwing haymakers at one another, with neither party holding back in the slightest.

Russell Westbrook is coming up big for the Clippers without Kawhi Leonard or Paul George.

Tampa Bay’s Randy Arozarena homered and the Rays set a major league record by going deep in each of their first 21 games, en route to a 4-3 victory over the Chicago White Sox on Saturday at Tropicana Field.

Dillon Brooks is not a popular man in Los Angeles. The Grizzlies forward has managed to get under the skin of just about everyone in the league as of late, and that has extended into Memphis’s series against the Lakers. 
After making some bold comments directed toward LeBron James following the Grizzlies’ win in Game 2, Brooks was hit with an ice-cold welcome to Crypto.com Arena before Saturday’s Game 3. 
During warmups ahead of the tilt, Lakers fans trolled Brooks while he took some jumpers, cheering after every shot he missed.

A wild sequence unfolded in the third period of Game 3 between the Leafs and Lightning.
