Saturday’s quiz
Oakland A’s won three straight World Series, from 1972-74. Hall of Famer Dick Williams managed the A’s in 1972-73; who managed the A’s in 1974?
Friday’s quiz
Last time the Raiders won a playoff game, they beat Tennessee 41-24 in the 2002 AFC Championship game.
Thursday’s quiz
When Michael Jordan played minor league baseball for the Birmingham Barons in the AA Southern League, Terry Francona was the Barons’ skipper.

Saturday’s Den: Random stuff with the weekend here…….
13) Juan Soto got traded to San Diego this week; he wore General Discussion Forum in Washington, but P Nick Martinez already had that number. Martinez said he would give Soto number 22, if Soto bought him a fishing boat.
Soto volunteered to buy Martinez a Rolex watch, which Martinez agreed was a fair price. If you are a marginal player, you really don’t want to tick off the newly-acquired star.
12) Why did the Astros trade for Christian Vazquez? He started once in their first five games after Monday’s trade with Boston. Is he going to split time with Martin Maldonado? Is he going to be a backup?
11) Astros 9, Guardians 3— Trey Mancini hit two homers in the first three innings; one of them was a grand slam. His first three hits for Houston were all home runs.
10) This week is the 40th anniversary of when Joel Youngblood got two hits for two different teams on the same day, in two different cities.
Playing for the Mets, Youngblood got a hit against Ferguson Jenkins in Chicago in a day game; he was traded during the game.
He hopped on an airplane to Philadelphia, got a hit against Steve Carlton while playing for the Montreal Expos.
Jenkins/Carlton are both Hall of Famers, adding to the impressive feat.
9) Bad news/good for the Angels Thursday:
Good news: They hit seven home runs in a game vs Oakland
Bad news: They lost the game, 8-7. All seven home runs were with the bases empty.
Seven solo home runs is tied most all-time for a team in one game.
Seven home runs in a loss also ties a record.
Teams are 113-6 all-time, when they hit 7+ homers in a game.
8) Since 2018, when Jacob deGrom starts, the underdog is 37-41 on the money line, good for a profit of $2,070 on a $100 bet.
7) Cubs-Cardinals will play two games in London next June.
6) Before he got traded to New York, Andrew Benintendi was 13 for his last 36.
Since his trade to New York, he is 2-24 (with 8 walks).
5) Happy 82nd birthday to Roman Gabriel, who was the Rams’ QB way back when I became a fan in 1966. Rams made the playoffs in 1967, 1969; back then, it was way harder to make the playoffs than it is now.
Gabriel was 74-41-6 as the Rams’ QB; he went on to play five more years with the Eagles.
4) Miami Hurricanes had a team one year where the top three QB’s were:
Jim Kelly, Bernie Kosar, Vinny Testaverde.
These days, two of those guys would’ve transferred. If I ain’t starting, then I’ll be departing.
3) Last two teams to win the Super Bowl were the $5 seed in the NFC, the #4 seed in the NFC. Last four years, only two of the eight Super Bowl teams were Home seeds.
2) Jacoby Brissett will be able to write a very interesting book someday. In his six-year NFL career, he has backed up these QB’s:
Tom Brady. Andrew Luck. Jimmy Garoppolo. Deshaun Watson. Tua Tagovailoa.
Brissett has a 14-23 record as a starter.
1) If the baseball playoffs started today (they do not):
NL: Mets, Mil/StL, Dodgers Wild Cards: San Diego, Atlanta, Mil/StL/Phil
AL: New York, Twins, Astros Wild Cards: Toronto, Seattle, Tampa Bay

Sunday’s quiz
In the movie The Pelican Brief, who plays the newspaper reporter who works with Julia Roberts’ character to uncover a government conspiracy?
Saturday’s quiz
Oakland A’s won three straight World Series, from 1972-74. Hall of Famer Dick Williams managed the A’s in 1972-73; Alvin Dark managed the A’s in 1974.
Friday’s quiz
Last time the Raiders won a playoff game, they beat Tennessee 41-24 in the 2002 AFC Championship game.
*************************************************************
Sunday’s Den: Wrapping up a sports Saturday
13) I’m following my fantasy baseball team on the league’s CBS website; results of plays pop up on the screen, a good 3-4 seconds before I see the play “live” on TV (I have the baseball package on DirecTV).
Not a complaint, just an observation.
12) Phillies’ 1B Rhys Hoskins hit a home run in the first inning in their last three games; he is the first Phillies’ player to do that. Ever.
11) Washington’s Patrick Corbin got knocked out in the first inning Saturday, second time that happened in his last three starts. Corbin has given up 21 runs in his last 10.2 IP.
10) On July 8th, Bronx Bombers were 61-0 when leading in the 8th inning or later; since then, they’ve lost four times (9-4) when leading in the 8th inning or later.
9) White Sox ace Dylan Cease has gone 13 consecutive starts giving up 0 or 1 earned runs, the longest such streak in the last 100 years.
8) Baltimore’s Jorge Mateo is leading the American League in stolen bases (26), despite having a .215 batting average, an on-base %age of .266, which are terrible numbers.
Miami’s Jon Berti leads the majors in stolen bases, with 28.
7) Mets 8-6, Braves 5-2— Mets sweep a twinbill at home, increase their lead in NL East to 5.5 games. Atlanta has a fairly solid hold on one of the NL’s three Wild Card slots.
6) Dodgers 8, Padres 3— LA has won seven games in row, leads NL West by 14.5 games. As for San Diego, they lost their last three games by a combined score of 23-7. Padres would make the playoffs if they started today, but it is a very tight race.
5) Last five years in the NFL, best records in division games:
25-5— Kansas City
23-7— Dallas, New Orleans
21-8-1— Pittsburgh
21-9— New England, Tennessee
4) Last five years in the NFL, worst records in division games:
9-21— Carolina, Denver, Jaguars, Giants, Washington
10-20— Cincinnati, Detroit
12-18— Arizona, San Francisco
12-17-1— Cleveland
3) Reds’ SS José Barrero didn’t have a home run in his first 47 MLB games; he had two homers Saturday night, his first two major league dingers.
Barrero is the second Reds player to hit his first two career HR in the same game; the first was Harry Steinfeldt on July 31, 1900.
2) Since 2008, most games where a pitcher induced 20+ swings/misses:
84— Max Scherzer
46— Chris Sale
40—Clayton Kershaw
39— Jacob deGrom, Justin Verlander
1) If the baseball playoffs started today (they do not):
NL: Mets, St Louis, Dodgers Wild Cards: San Diego, Atlanta, San Diego, Philly
AL: New York, Twins, Astros Wild Cards: Toronto, Tampa Bay, Seattle
