Today's game against Atlanta was the Indiana Pacers' 11th time this season scoring 140+ points in a single game.
That is the most 140-point games in a single season in NBA history, breaking a tie with the 1981-82 Nuggets.
The Baltimore Orioles' Colton Cowser in the series at Fenway:
10 RBI
3 doubles
2 home runs
1 walk
1 stolen base
No other MLB player has put up all of those numbers in a 3-game series (since RBI became an official stat in 1920).
Teams to win all 6 games by 13+ points in a single NCAA Tournament:
UConn Men's Basketball in 2023
UConn Men's Basketball in 2024
Elly De La Cruz's night for the Cincinnati Reds:
- HR from both sides of the plate
- over-the-fence HR & inside-the-park HR
- 4+ runs scored
- stolen base
He's the first player in MLB history to do all of that in the same game.
The Houston Astros' Yordan Alvarez reached 250 walks and 250 extra-base hits in his MLB career in his 489th game.
The only MLB players to reach those marks faster in the modern era are Lou Gehrig (439) and Ted Williams (463).
The San Diego Padres' Kyle Higashioka threw out multiple runners and hit a HR in the 4th inning today.
The only other MLB catcher to do this over the past 45 seasons was the Angels' Bengie Molina on June 13, 2000 against the Devil Rays in the 2nd inning.
Bryce Harper of the Philadelphia Phillies is the first MLB player in the Modern Era to record his 1000th career run while having at least three HR in the same game.
Ronel Blanco's no-hitter for the Houston Astros tonight is the earliest no-hitter (by date) in MLB history.

In the last 25 years across the NBA, WNBA & Division I men's & women's college basketball, 2 players have put up the above numbers over a 7-game span. They are UConn Women’s Basketball's Paige Bueckers & LeBron James.
The Wolfpack of NC State University is just the second school to send both its Men's and Women's teams to the Final Four in the same season with at least one of the teams being a double-digit seed, after Syracuse did so in 2016 (Men's team - 10 Seed).
Since RBI became official, 2 MLB players have had a 4-game span with:
9+ hits
9+ RBI

Including his last game against the Pacers, the Los Angeles Lakers' Anthony Davis has 40 career games with 35+ points and 15+ rebounds.
The only NBA player with more such games over the past 40 seasons is Shaquille O’Neal (52).
