Giants look the part of a ‘good team’ in uniquely successful opening road trip

On Wednesday, the Giants played their sloppiest game of the 2025 regular season. The defense still hasn’t committed an error this season, but there were two plays in the bottom of the fifth inning that could have been described as “error-adjacent.” There were two walks sprinkled around those misplays, and all eight of the balls were easy takes. All of that sloppiness set up a bases-loaded, nobody out situation for one of the best hitters in baseball. For a couple of sloppy cherries on top, the Giants also had two pitch-clock violations in the following inning, one at the plate and one on the mound.AdvertisementThe Giants won the game 6-3. They swept the Astros and completed a 5-1 road trip, and they’re off to their best start in over a decade. The last time they started the season with a […]

"I've grown up here as a student, as a man […]

Rockets’ Dillon Brooks hit with technical foul for kick to the groin vs. Jazz, now facing suspension

Getty Images Houston Rockets guard Dillon Brooks has reached the suspension limit for technical fouls after picking up his 16th of the season on Wednesday for kicking Utah Jazz guard Collin Sexton in the groin. Just a few minutes into the game, Brooks posted Sexton up on the block and tried to spin into a turnaround jumper. Sexton had other ideas, however, and knocked the ball away as Brooks was going up. After losing the ball, Brooks flailed his limbs, in a theatrical manner to try and draw a foul. Instead, he kicked the ball and then Sexton. The result was a double whammy: a turnover for the kicked ball violation and a technical for the unnecessary contact to Sexton.  Brooks is never hesitant to voice his opinion to the officials or mix it up with opposing players -- he was ejected […]

Carille justifica empate do Vasco com Melgar falando de altitude e pouca preparação: ‘Fica amargo pelas circunstâncias’

Fábio Carille não quis dar muitas desculpas após o empate entre Vasco e Melgar por 3 a 3, em Arequipa (Peru), na estreia da Copa Sul-Americana. O treinador cruz-maltino apontou os problemas causados pela altitude para justificar a equipe ter perdido a vantagem de dois gols no final do segundo tempo, e ter recuado demais no campo. — Fica amargo pelas circunstâncias do jogo. Não conseguimos subir as linhas. Não é desculpa, mas é verdade. Muitos jogadores pedindo oxigênio no intervalo. Da linha defensiva, só o João Victor não pediu. Outros jogadores também sentiram — disse Carille na coletiva. — E começamos a nos desfazer da bola no segundo tempo. Não é desculpa. Dentro dessas circunstâncias, temos que comemorar esse um ponto, mas com um pouco mais de atenção, poderíamos sair com os três daqui. Após vencer o Santos por […]
