Kyle Larson Rough Night, Still Finishes Sixth at Richmond

Kyle Larson led just eight laps the entire night as his car just never had it from almost the start at Richmond. It was just one of those nights where the horsepower was not there. He drove well enough to finish in sixth and pretty much cement a spot in the Round of 12. The […]

Joey Logano Holds on for Fifth Place at Richmond

Joey Logano had one of those nights. He did not lead a single lap in the Team Penske car but the No. 22 managed to finish in the top five at Richmond. That keeps him in a good position to advance to the Round of 12 next week. After all, he did win at Bristol […]

James McCann Belts 10th Homer Of Season

New York Mets catcher James McCann went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run, three RBI, two runs scored, and a walk in the Mets 8-7 loss to the Yankees on Saturday evening. Despite the big night, it has been a disappointing season for McCann following his 2020 campaign in which he posted a .289/.360/.536 slash […]

Cole Irvin Whiffs Eight Rangers In No-Decision Saturday

Oakland Athletics starting pitcher Cole Irvin allowed two runs across seven innings with eight strikeouts against the Rangers on Saturday. Unfortunately for Irvin, the bullpen couldn't hold a four-run lead to secure the win, but it was an encouraging outing from the young lefty. Prior to this outing, Irvin had not completed the fifth inning […]

Chase Elliott Overcomes Issues to Finish Fourth at Richmond

Chase Elliott had an interesting Saturday night on the 3/4 mile track at Richmond. In the end, he finished fourth which was a solid result. However, a few car issues, a bad pit stop, and some misjudging of drafting put Elliott behind the pace in the final 51 laps. The Hendricks Motorsports Racing driver did […]

Preston Williams Likely Out In Week 1

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Preston Williams (foot) is likely out for Week 1 against New England. The 24-year-old has been riding a questionable tag leading up to the opener. However, it appears as if he hasn't fully recovered from the season-ending foot surgery that relegated him to just eight games during the 2020 campaign. With […]

Christopher Bell Delivers Big Result at Richmond

Christopher Bell was the third Joe Gibbs Racing driver in the 1-2-3 sweep on Saturday night at Richmond. He could not keep pace with his teammates but was able to stay in front of Chase Elliott. That gave him a spot on the podium and a third-place finish to boost his chances of advancing to […]

Taijuan Walker With Another Poor Outing On Saturday

New York Mets starting pitcher Taijuan Walker allowed five earned runs on six hits, including three homers, and one walk over six innings pitched in the Mets 8-7 loss to the crosstown Yankees on Saturday. Walker, who did strike out eight batters, did not factor into the decision. It has been an uneven season for […]

Zack Wheeler Silences Rockies For 13th Win

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Zack Wheeler allowed one run across 6 2/3 innings to pick up his 13th victory on Saturday versus Colorado. Wheeler allowed just four hits and two walks while picking up eight strikeouts. The NL Cy Young candidate hit a rough patch at the end of August, but he seems to have […]

Denny Hamlin Ends Up Second At Richmond

Denny Hamlin was in the middle of a 1-2-3 Joe Gibbs Racing sweep on Saturday night as the No. 11 led the most laps with 197. The problem was the final laps as Martin Truex Jr.'s car was just faster in that run. It does not take away from a nice two-week run and start […]

Emmanuel Sanders Likely Available In Week 1

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders (foot) is anticipated to be active for the season opener against the visiting Steelers. The veteran has battled a foot injury throughout most of the preseason, but it appears as if he is at least healthy enough to see the field in Week 1. Nonetheless, while Sanders certainly has […]

Martin Truex Jr. Wins Federated Auto Parts 400

Martin Truex Jr. had the car to do very well and once again, he proved his favorite status was not a fluke. The Joe Gibbs Racing driver led 80 laps including the most important one, en route to victory on Saturday night at Richmond. The closest driver to him was Denny Hamlin who still was […]
