Joe Gibbs Racing's Martin Truex Jr. and the No. 19 team drew the pole position for Sunday's Geico 500 at Talladega Superspeedway.

KBO Betting Picks (6/20/2020) - Moneylines, Totals, and Runlines

What a terrible start to the weekend. However, it was quite a weird day in the KBO overall, but then again, what day isn't? NC wasn't able to get Chang-mo Koo much run support despite facing a bullpen arm at home. Then there was the debacle that was the Doosan/LG game. Doosan plated 13 runs […]
