From big home runs to dominant pitching and confusing late-inning calls, the first four games of the Division Series had everything. After the Chicago White Sox opened the day with a win, the three home teams – the Dodgers, Rays and Brewers – held serve with wins. Los Angeles and Tampa Bay got huge outings from their starting pitchers, while Milwaukee got some timely hitting and a little bit of […]

From a morning crowd-surf to a field-storming celebration with the Little Brown Jug, this is the oral history of P.J. Fleck’s unforgettable day. P.J. Fleck arrived at Huntington Bank Stadium dressed for the occasion. Gopher maroon pants. Brown preppy loafers. A navy blue sport coat. A maroon tie and pocket square. On his left lapel, a Minnesota "M" pin. It was well before 9 a.m., and Fleck was already in […]

With Game 1 of the National League Division Series on the line, chaos ensued at American Family Field.

The Buffalo Bills, Kansas City Chiefs, San Francisco 49ers, Las Vegas Raiders and Minnesota Vikings are all 3-0 to start the season.

DODGER STADIUM (Los Angeles) – After firing six innings of one-run ball in his first playoff start for the Dodgers, delivering exactly what the back-to-back champions envisioned when they traded for the back-to-back American League Cy Young Award winner at the deadline, Tarik Skubal returned to his home dugout on a scorching Saturday afternoon and asked his teammates a question. "Has it been this hot all game?" At the time […]

As No. 14 Iowa prepared to host No. 5 Ohio State on Saturday, one of the more notable statistics circulating was that Hawkeyes coach Kirk Ferentz was 5-2 at home against AP top-five teams since 2008. But there would be no upset in Kinnick Stadium this time. Ohio State rolled to a resounding 31-14 road victory, fueled in large part by another stellar performance from superstar wide receiver Jeremiah Smith, […]

Ohio State is known as "Wide Receiver U" thanks to players like Chris Olave and Emeka Egbuka. Cris Carter and David Boston before them.
