What a terrible night for Edwin Diaz, the New York Mets and the WBC.

Once Diaz registered the final strikeout of the evening, teammates from Puerto Rico’s bench rushed to him on the mound.

The Cincinnati Bengals are remaking their offensive line again and this time they’re doing it by spending big on left tackle Orlando Brown Jr.
