Prisco's 2023 NFL Draft grades for all 32 teams: Eagles, Cowboys, Bengals, Lions get A's, 4 tie for worst mark

#

J.R. Richard, Last 30 Career Games, Aug 3, 1979 - Jul 14, 1980: 19-6, 1.44 ERA, 250 K, 0.89 WHIP, 225.2 IP

#

With the Bruins loss tonight none of the teams with the all time regular season records in each major North American sports league won a championship.

#

In the MLB the 2001 Seattle Mariners finished 116-46 they would go on to lose in the ALCS 4-1. They would proceed to not make the playoffs for 20 years.

In the NFL the 2007 New England Patriots finished the regular season with a perfect 16-0 record. They would go on to lose in the Super Bowl to the New York Giants

In the NBA the 2016 Golden State Warriors finished 73-9 and Steph Curry became the first unanimous MVP, and after taking a 3-1 lead their championship looked inevitable until their opponents the Cleveland Cavaliers completed the unlikely comeback and won.

And now the 2023 Boston Bruins who finished 65-12-5 have been eliminated in the first round after going up 3-1.

#

The Tigers continue their AL East futility as they drop 3 of 4 at home to the Orioles. They have not won a series yet against the AL East (0-6), and have not lost a series yet to anyone else (4-0).

#

This is the 1st time in NL Central history that the Cardinals have ended April in last place

#

The last time the Cardinals finished April last in their division was 1988 when they were in the NL East.

#

The Yankees and the Cardinals will both finish April in Last Place in their Divisions

#

Padres take both games against the Giants in the wild Mexico City series.

#

Three teams enter May down by double digit games in the division: A’s, Royals, Cardinals

Rangers Best the Bronx Bombers in a 3-1 series win

#

The Mariners have snapped a 4-game losing streak solely consisting of one-run games…

#

For the first time since the summer of 2014 the Baltimore Orioles have won 6 consecutive series

#

Sonny Gray faces off against the Royals going 6.0IP, 5H, 1ER, 1BB, and ends April as the only starting pitcher in the MLB with a sub 1 ERA

#

Jose Suarez since Ohtani told him he was tipping pitches: 7 IP, 0 R, 2 H, 4 BB, 8 Ks. Before that point his ERA was over 10

#

"Ohtani’s blast had a 39 degree launch angle. There had not been a single home run with that launch angle or higher hit to center field since Statcast debuted in 2015." The homerun's height was almost double the average homerun.

#

Brewers fans chanted "overrated" at Shohei at his next AB.

#

After todays 4-3 win over the Cubs, The Miami Marlins have started the season 10-0 in one run games

#

Twins bat around the Royals in the 3rd

#

The Pirates are off to their best 28-game start since 1992

Strikeouts not enough for slumping White Sox pitchers

The Chicago White Sox are showing so far that strikeouts aren’t everything. Chicago’s pitching staff leads the major leagues with 10.17 strikeouts per nine innings. The White Sox also have a team ERA of 5.96. Only Oakland is worse at the moment. Those pitching woes are a big reason Chicago has been perhaps baseball’s most disappointing team to t...
