1 – [25]: Diamondbacks celebrate 2001 with another walk-off

And wouldn’t you know it — it was against the Yankees. That’s some Alanis Morrisette-level irony for their 25th anniversary celebration. A Pavin Smith 391-foot bomb gave Arizona their 46th comeback win of the season.

2 – [2632]: cal ripken ends the streak

The Hall of Famer ended his iron man streak on his own terms: he simply sat out the game versus the Yankees on September 20th, 1998. 2632 straight games. It is a record that I doubt we will ever seen broken.

3 – [1]: Atlanta is one win away

The magic number for the Braves is simply…one. Ronald Acuna Jr. hit a grand slam in a 6-3 win over Houston. If they punch their ticket today, it will be seven division championships in nine seasons.

4 – [1952]: Kentucky ends a 74-year wait.

1952. That was the last time the Wildcats had beaten Texas A&M on the gridiron. The did it yesterday with a 31-21 victory over the #9 ranked Aggies. Kenny Minchey threw for 252 yards and two TDs, while CJ Baxter ran for two scores.

5 – [107] — how sweetness it is.

On this day in 1987, Walter Payton scored his 107th career TD, breaking Jim Brown’s NFL record. Those two men now sit #6 & #7 all time.

THE SxN PLAYS OF THE DAY

[WATCH] – saints at baltimore

At the time of publishing, -8.5 is the number for Baltimore. If you can find favorable odds at -7.5 or even -8, I’d be more interested. If it happens to go the other direction, the Saints might be the play after their strong showing last week and the injuries to the Ravens.

[WATCH] – dolphins at 49ers

Have you seen the movement on this line? It started around -10.5 — and has since moved to -13.5. Yet, San Francisco feels like the play here still, doesn’t it? But don’t be blindly chasing this number.
