Quote of the Day
“Bad news is I’m down here in Florida battling a hurricane, but the good news is I can announce my retirement………Oh cool. He just handed that (baseball) back without checking to see if our house is still here? I’d next like to announce our divorce.”
NFL reporter Sara Walsh, after her husband, a Blue Jays’ bullpen coach, gave Aaron Judge’s 61st home run ball to New York personnel, without getting anything for it

**********************

Saturday’s Den: Wrapping up a fall Friday…….

— Braves 5, Mets 2— Teams are now tied atop NL East standings, with five games left. Mets hold the tie-breaker if the teams wind up even in the standings.

— Atlanta signed P Charlie Morton to a $20M deal for next year, with a team option for 2024. Morton is 9-6, 4.39 in 30 starts this season.

— Tulane 27, Houston 24 OT:
Tulane’s 3rd-string QB threw the game-winning TD pass in overtime.
Houston outgained the Green Wave 383-273.
Last three years, Green Wave is 14-6 ATS coming off a loss.

— Tex-San Antonio 45, Middle Tennessee 30
Roadrunners led 31-20 at halftime.
UTSA converted 10-14 on third down, Blue Raiders 6-17.
Roadrunners threw for 423 yards, averaging 11.7 yards/attempt.

— Boise State 35, San Diego State 13
Aztecs led this game 13-0 at halftime.
Aztecs’ only TD came on a blocked punt.

UNLV scored on pick-6 with 0:28 left; this was a close game.

— Discovered an old 2015 NFL Films thing on Amazon Prime the other night, an in-season show featuring the Arizona Cardinals. They had cameras in the coaches’ offices, in the owner’s box during games, like Hard Knocks in the summer.

Haven’t finished it yet, but what I saw was interesting. Bruce Arians was the Cardinals’ coach back then; not sure why the Cardinals let him get away, but he obviously wound up in Tampa and won a Super Bowl couple years ago.

— Cardinals’ GM Steve Keim has three sons: Carson, Brady, Warner. I’m guessing they’re going to go grow up to be quarterbacks.

— Mariners 2, A’s 1— Cal Raleigh’s walk-off homer in the 9th inning puts Seattle in the playoffs for the first time since 2001.

— Houston clinched the #1-seed in the American League when the Orioles beat New York.

— SMU-Central Florida football game has been moved to Wednesday night at 7:30, because of the hurricane in Florida; game will be televised on ESPN2, the only football on TV that night.

— Iowa is the only state in our country that begins with two vowels.

— Ohio State 49, Rutgers 10— Buckeyes faked a punt when they led 49-10 in 4th quarter; this annoyed the visitors from New Jersey, and the two coaches exchanged words.

Jim Mora Jr gets his first big moment with the Huskies.
Fresno State is now 0-3 vs I-A teams; this is a bad loss.

— Marlins 4, Brewers 3— Miami scored twice in 9th inning to put Milwaukee a game behind the Phillies, who also own the tiebreaker. Maybe the Brewers shouldn’t have traded Josh Hader.

Quote of the Day
“The plays are there and we’re there, we’ve just got to execute and coach them better. That system’s the same system a lot of people use and what’s going on. I’m not … the plays are there. We’re in the red zone, ready to score and hit it, we just got to pick it up and go. We’re not executing. We’ve got to coach them better, make sure they’re in that position and do it. Can’t press harder, you’ve got to go easier.”
Texas A&M football coach Jimbo Fisher
