On Monday, Colorado put out another viral nugget with a video of Coach’s first encounter with CU’s mascot, Ralphie the Buffalo.

For most of the afternoon, the Rays had no answer for Red Sox pitching on Monday. Then, with one swing of the bat, their dream start to the season was once again alive and well.
Tampa Bay beat Boston, 1–0, thanks to a solo home run from Brandon Lowe in the eighth inning to improve to 10–0 on the young season. With the win, the Rays became the first team since the 1987 Brewers to start a year with 10 consecutive victories.

Kliff Kingsbury is back in the college game. The former Arizona Cardinals head coach has accepted a position on the USC Trojans staff with Lincoln Riley.
Not only is Kliff Kingsbury getting back into college football, he will be working with the quarterbacks. According to multiple reports, Kingsbury is being hired in an offensive analyst role. One of the most intelligent quarterback coaches in football will now be working with Caleb Williams and the Trojans offense.
Kingsbury has an impressive résumé, working with two former No.1 picks, Baker Mayfield (Texas Tech 2013) and Kyler Murray.
Plays like these are almost impossible to believe, even on video.
It’s been an incredible seventh inning for the Mets grounds crew after New York pulled off two miraculous bunts.
Bunts are often a byproduct of great placement or luck; the New York Mets weren’t short on the latter Monday night.
Mets’ Luis Guillorme took the first lucky swing. After the ball dropped about a yard after connecting, it hugged the third base line as Manny Machado and Yu Darvish crept up and desperately waited for it to roll out.
But it never did … fair!

Pekin High School has one of the weirdest baseball fields in the country. It has claimed many victims along the way.
Pekin, located in central Illinois, is about 10 miles from Peoria, 100 miles from Champaign and 175 miles from Chicago. Its population hovers around 30,000 with a high school enrollment of just under 2,000.
There are some unique high school baseball fields out there. Dimensions are the most common oddity across the country, with varying lengths from left field to center field and so on and so forth.
Former Stanford star Haley Jones made her long-anticipated transition to the next level on Monday after being selected No. 6 by the Dream in the 2023 WNBA draft. But, in the middle of her big night, Jones received a hilarious shout-out on Twitter from one pretty important person she apparently left on read: her new coach.
On a night when Jones was likely bombarded by calls and messages, Dream coach Tanisha Wright took to social media to ask her new rookie to pick up her phone so she could congratulate and welcome her to the team.
Sacramento is the No. 3 seed in the West and the feel-good story of the NBA season. But Golden State is healthy, dangerous and playoff-tested.
Months after being fired as head coach of the Cardinals, Kliff Kingsbury is reportedly headed back to college.
Kingsbury will join Lincoln Riley’s staff at USC to work with the team’s quarterbacks, according to Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network. It will be his first time coaching in college since he left for the NFL ahead of the 2019 season.
Like Riley, Kingsbury’s career ties back to Mike Leach and the Air Raid offense at Texas Tech. Kingsbury was the head coach for the Red Raiders from 2013 to ’18, posting a 35–40 overall record.
