Ben Verlander gives his Top 3 biggest winners & losers for the month of August including the Seattle Mariners, Texas Rangers and New York Yankees.
Ronald Acuna Jr.’s latest homer, off Dodgers right-hander Lance Lynn, made him the first player in baseball history to amass at least 30 home runs and 60 stolen bases within a single season.
Florida was outclassed by Utah during its season opener on Thursday, as Billy Napier’s squad struggled on both sides of the ball.
In the 24–11 loss, the Gators offense was particularly putrid, failing to reach the end zone once throughout the first three quarters of play. Additionally, Florida was unable to convert on any of its first nine attempts on third down, ending the night 1-for-13 on third down.
As a team, Florida had just 13 rushing yards on 21 attempts. While Graham Mertz threw for 333 yards, he was sacked five times and threw a costly interception.
Rob Stone, Brady Quinn, Mark Ingram II, Matt Leinart and Urban Meyer break down the Minnesota Golden Gophers’ comeback win over the Nebraska Cornhuskers.
Mookie Betts smashed a three-run home run to right field to help the Los Angeles Dodgers close the gap against the Atlanta Braves.
Utah didn’t have its starting quarterback, Cam Rising, and rotated two throughout the game. Utah was the team that didn’t have its standout tight end Brant Kuithe, nor did it have multiple other starters. But Florida was the team who looked disjointed, unprepared and just plain bad in a 24–11 loss to the Utes. In their first out-of-conference game outside of Florida since 1991, the Gators looked like they simply were not ready to play from the very first snap. Bryson Barnes’s 70-yard bomb to Money Parks on Utah’s first offensive play of the game stunned Florida.
The Braves star did something not even Barry Bonds or Rickey Henderson ever did.
Nebraska turned the ball over four times.
Braves superstar outfielder Ronald Acuña Jr. made MLB history on Thursday night during Atlanta’s tilt against the Dodgers.
In the top of the second inning, Acuña launched a grand slam to break open the game. The bases-clearing bomb was his 30th home run of the season, and it also set him apart in league history.
Acuña now has 30 home runs and 61 stolen bases on the season, making him the first player ever to record 30-plus homers and 60-plus steals in a single campaign.
