data-mm-id=”_gi88ybu7e”>Trevor Bauer pitched some live batting practice to Barstool Sports blogger Marty Mush in the name of creating content. They achieved that goal. And it went much differently than most of us would have expected because Mush actually showcased some impressive bat work. Which makes his claim that he could hit .135 in the majors a lot more believable. When the dust had settled and the cameras had stopped rolling Mush had collected two hits and a walk off the 2020 National League Cy Young Award winner.

Because hanging breaking balls have been the ruin of superior talent since the beginning of time. What stands out the most is a blogger looking halfway athletic for one of the first times ever. Look for Mush on the independent circuit. Those bloop singles will travel.

Arsenal midfielder Aaron Ramsey has voiced his admiration for Mesut Ozil following the Germany international s fine performances in 2015-16.
Ozil has already set up seven goals in nine Premier League appearances this campaign, scoring once himself, and Ramsey is in awe of his team-mate s passing skills.
He has a great eye for a ball – he has many assists – and his weight of pass is fantastic as well, Ramsey told the official UEFA website.
He finds those little pockets of space very well and links up the play.
Nevertheless, Ramsey has made it clear Ozil is not the best player he has played with at Arsenal since joining the club from Cardiff City in 2008.
Cesc Fabregas is the best player I have played with at Arsenal. He plays in the same p…

Two sides who are desperately seeking some kind of boost in the early hours of Thursday, St. Louis will welcome San Jose to Missouri.
Starting with the hosts, while St. Louis might have made real history last season as they were crowned Western Conference champions, Bradley Carnell’s men have come crashing back down to earth this time around. Suffering a major second-half collapse away at Vancouver last weekend as they eventually fell to a dramatic 4-3 defeat, the Missouri-based outfit have failed to muster a single victory from any of their previous nine MLS appearances. With that run stemming all the way back to a 3-1 win against Chicago on May 12th, the former New York Red Bulls coach will also have a mo…
Cristiano Ronaldo fired Juventus seven points clear in Serie A with a match-winning brace in a hard-earned 2-1 victory at Empoli on Saturday.
The Portugal superstar erased a first-half deficit from the spot shortly after the interval before a thunderous swerving drive 20 minutes from time ensured there was no repeat of last weekend s frustrating home draw with Genoa.
Juve lost Giorgio Chiellini to injury in the warm-up and had looked set to leave the door open for Napoli to move back within a win of joint top spot when Francesco Caputo put the struggling hosts ahead in a tense first half.
But the champions increasingly impressive talisman backed up his fine Champions League showing against Manchester United with a one-man rescue act that boosted his league t…

Thomas Muller has expressed disbelief at the prospect of a €100 million move to Manchester United, as the forward continues to be linked with the Premier League club.
Bayern Munich striker Muller has long been linked with a switch to Old Trafford, with speculation resurfacing this week as reports in Germany suggested a potential price tag of €100m.
Muller has spoken of interest from United in the past, but agreed a new contract at the Allianz Arena until 2019 in June last year.
And the Germany international has been somewhat taken aback at fresh talk of a big-money bid from United.
It s basically crazy, the current numbers being talked about in football, he told Sport1.

It might be the defender in him, but Manchester United great Rio Ferdinand says he is as excited by Atletico Madrid as he is by the likes of Bayern Munich or Barcelona after watching Diego Simeone lead his team to a second Champions League final in three years.
Atletico have not been without their critics for their counter-attacking football that Simeone has perfected since taking the reins in 2011.
The Argentinian has led Atletico to a La Liga title, a Copa del Rey triumph and a Europa League win as well as a second Champions League final after seeing off Bayern Munich in the semi-finals on Tuesday.
And Ferdinand a Champions League winner himself under Alex Ferguson at Manchester United in 2008 said Simeone had complete buy-in from his players.

Kylian Mbappe should join Real Madrid if he wants to continue improving, according to former France international Robert Pires.
Mbappe, 21, has been heavily linked with a move to Madrid after starring at Paris Saint-Germain, where he is contracted until 2022.
Pires, who turned down Madrid during his playing career, said Mbappe should make the move to the LaLiga giants – and the former Arsenal and France midfielder can see it happening.
Of course. I m French, I like Paris Saint-Germain and I d like him to stay in Ligue 1, he told AS.
But if he wants to keep growing as a player, he should sign for Real Madrid.
Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane has previously revealed his admiration for Mbappe, who has six goals and five assists in seven games this s…
Robbie Brady was delighted to see Wes Hoolahan dazzle in the Republic of Ireland s Euro 2016 opener against Sweden, but rued the fact his team-mate s moment on the big stage had not arrived sooner.
Hoolahan, ably supported by the similarly impressive Brady and Jeff Hendrick, helped Ireland into the ascendancy for the much of the first half at the Stade de France his deft touches and razor-sharp awareness helping to elevate a match that often favoured brawn over brains.
The Norwich City playmaker s crowning moment came shortly after the break, when he crashed home an unstoppable half-volley from Seamus Coleman s cross to prompt bedlam among the hordes of green behind the goal.
The Republic could not hold on, as the largely well-shackled Zlatan Ibrahimovic prompted…
