Giants' Heliot Ramos hit the ball twice on one RBI swing

Yahooa day ago
Heliot Ramos pulled off a feat rarely seen on a baseball field.
In the first inning Sunday in Toronto, the San Francisco Giants' star outfielder hit the ball twice on one swing.
Seriously.
The ball first made contact a bit up the handle, deflected slightly toward the barrel, then lined out toward the middle of the field.
With a runner on second, the liner was placed just well enough to float through the infield and roll into center for an RBI single.

There's nothing in the rules against this.
It would be pretty much impossible to do intentionally, though.
In this case, the baseball gods were smiling down on Ramos, and he had a run-scoring hit to show for it.

Dodgers' Clayton Kershaw throws tantrum in dugout after tough outing vs Brewers

Clayton Kershaw's frustrations boiled over on Sunday as the Los Angeles Dodgers fell to the Milwaukee Brewers, 6-5. Kershaw allowed three runs — one earned — in 4.1 innings. He struck out two batters. He was removed in the middle of the fifth inning. Milwaukee scored three runs in the fourth inning to tie the game at three. The Dodgers took the lead in the bottom of the fifth. As Kershaw went back to the dugout, the future Baseball Hall of Famer slammed his glove and hat onto the bench. The Brewers came back with three runs in the sixth inning and controlled the game from there en route to the win. Kershaw was less than forthcoming with reporters in his postgame availability. "I don't make anything of it. They beat us. We need to play better tomorrow," he said. "I don't have much to say. I'm going to get myself in trouble, so let's just call it." The Dodgers committed three errors in the win. The 11-time All-Star is 4-1 in 11 starts for the Dodgers this season, the 18th of his career. He has a 3.27 ERA and 37 strikeouts. He was coming off of the All-Star Game. The Dodgers fell to 58-42 on the year as they look to contend for another World Series title. The Brewers improved to 59-40 and completed the season sweep of the Dodgers. Follow Fox News Digital's sports coverage on X and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

After huge Sunday night commitment, Texas rises to No. 4 in team recruiting rankings

The Texas Longhorns had a great weekend. Not only did former Longhorn Scottie Scheffler win the British Open, but UT got a massive five-star commitment. Derrek Cooper, the No. 2 running back in the 2026 class, committed to Texas on Sunday evening. The pledge has skyrocketed the Horns up the recruiting rankings to No. 4 overall. Cooper is now the fourth highest ranked commitment in Texas's 2026 class, behind quarterback Dia Bell, linebacker Tyler Atkinson, and EDGE Richard Wesley. Things looked kind of dark for Texas recruiting in early July. The high-profile commitment of five-star offensive tackle Felix Ojo to Texas Tech stung. The Horns lost nine recruiting battles in a row after Wesley committed in late June. But things turned around 10 days ago with the commitment of four-star CB Samari Matthews. Texas beat out South Carolina, Miami and Florida State. Four days later, Atkinson committed to UT over Georgia, Clemson, and Oregon. A day later, Steve Sarkisian was able to flip five-star Georgia commit James Johnson. The flurry of commitments has lifted Texas to No. 6 in the team recruiting rankings. Cooper has given the overall class another boost to No. 4. UT also has the second most five-star commits of anyone in the nation. Sark has pledges from the No. 1 QB, No. 1 linebacker, No. 1 defensive lineman, No. 2 running back and No. 3 edge rusher. Any worries over the quality of this recruiting class has been put to rest. Many of the Texas 2026 class have also had a great summer. Bell, Arch Manning's probable heir apparent, was named the MVP of the exclusive Elite 11 QB event. His performance immediately was reflected in the rankings, as he was boosted to the No. 1 QB recruit in the country. Wesley was dominant at the Rivals Five-Star Challenge. The Longhorns had the No. 1 recruiting class in 2025. And while Sark and the recruiting team at Texas isn't done yet, the past 10 days have set UT on the path to another top five class and it may end up win another recruiting title before the cycle is done.
