Brutal at-bat by Masataka Yoshida to end Red Sox extra-inning loss. With two out and tying run on deck, swung and missed on 2-0 pitch out of strike zone. Two pitches later struck out swinging on pitch way out of strike zone.

Tough end to season for Red Wings. Capitals clinch last wildcard with a 2-1 win on empty net goal (Flyers pulled goalie in 1-1 game). Caps finish season with 91 points, 40 wins, and a-37 goal differential. Wings finish season with 91 points, 41 wins, and a +4 goal differential.

Red Sox righty Garrett Whitlock left tonight's game with left oblique tightness. Given the elbow injuries we've been seeing in the game, that qualifies as good news.

Luis Arraez is warming up, raising his BA from .194 on April 6 to a current .284 by going 13-for-32. Of note, only two of those hits has gone for extra bases (2B, 3B). Last year, Arraez upped his power late, hitting seven HRs from August 12 onward, including five in September.

The baseball team I follow lost 6-0 today. The soccer team I follow lost 6-0 today. The hockey team I follow (in a must-win game, no less) is down 2-0 eight minutes in. If my math is correct, that is an unpleasant 14-0. Sports.

If Sean Dyche wants to avoid being sacked, he might need to resign at half, or at least immediately after the match. Everton can't afford to keep him any longer.
