Sacramento: Fuck the Maloofs
Seriously, fuck them so hard.

Chicago: White Sox 3, Angels 0
Chris Sale had his perfect game broken up by Mike Trout in the seventh inning, but went on to finish with a one-hitter. He struck out seven in nine innings, and only needed 98 pitches to do it. So, you know, he had a pretty good day.

Toronto: Maple Leafs 2, Bruins 1
The Maple Leafs just refuse to die. Phil Kessel and Dion Phaneuf each scored a goal in the third period, and now the Leafs get to return to Boston for Game 7 after having been down 3-1 in the series.

New York: Rangers 1, Capitals 0
Rejoice, we get another Game 7! Henrik Lundquvist was the star in this one, turning away 27 shots on his way to a shutout. This nifty deflected goal from Derick Brassard would be all the scoring the Rangers would need:

Anaheim: Red Wings 3, Ducks 2
The Ducks blew their second chance to close out this series to a Red Wings team that controlled the game from start to finish. Francois Beauchemin made things interesting when his power-play goal brought the Ducks within one with 3:17 to play, but they never got close to tying after that.

Oakland: Warriors 97, Spurs 87
Both teams shot the ball like shit, and the Warriors managed to come out on top despite the fact that Steph Curry spent most of the game hobbling around the perimeter without the ball in his hands. He still finished with 22 points, though, because he's Steph Curry.

Thanks, Kelsie. I was a little confused about who to attribute that blog post to. It said "by Kelsie Fraser" at the top but then "posted by Derek Chesney" at the bottom. I will correct the post now! Read more

Ponte Vedra Beach: Roberto Castro shoots 63 at TPC
That ties a course record! Castro finished the round with seven birdies and one eagle, and he was a missed 13-foot birdie putt on the ninth hole away from breaking the course record.

Baltimore: Royals 6, Orioles 2
Jeremy Guthrie picks up his fifth win of the season, and he now sits at 5-0 with a 2.28 ERA. That is very weird and it makes me uncomfortable.

Cleveland: Indians 9, A's 2
Well fuck me. Scott freaking Kazmir is out here striking out 10 and allowing just one earned run in six innings of work. Where the hell did that come from?

St. Petersburg: Rays 5, Blue Jays 4
Things continue to be shitty for R.A. Dickey and the Blue Jays. Dickey only allowed three runs in this game, but he walked five and threw 110 pitches in six innings. The Jays are now 13-26.

Chicago: Blackhawks 5, Wild 1
Kaner and the Blackhawks are headed to the second round after missing a first-round sweep by just one game. I'm having a hard time feeling sorry for the Wild, because their team name is really dumb.

Pittsburgh: Penguins 4, Islanders 0
That was, um, not a good effort by the Islanders. Then again, it's hard to win hockey games when you are playing against a guy who can do this.

Montreal: Senators 6, Canadiens 1
The Senators breezed through their series-clinching game with ease, thanks to three straight power play goals in the third period. It was still a good season for the Habs, though, who finished last in the conference last season.

He calls it a "recreation" of the Great Depression. You're giving him way too much credit. Read more

San Diego: Padres 1, Marlins 0
Jason Marquis pitched eight shutout innings against the Marlins. That tells you everything you need to know about Marlins baseball.

Cleveland: Indians 4, Athletics 3
Oh, nothing to see here. Just Angel Hernandez completely Angel Hernandezing one of the worst blown calls you'll ever see.
