On how he thinks he performed today
Kade: I executed that well today. And that was just the plan.
On getting hit by the ball and how it affected his pitching game
Kade: Just got hit and there's no reason to make an excuse out of it. And I thought that there's no excuse and just keep going.
On starting 10 games at the Box and your team going 10-0. What does that mean to you?
Kade: Confidence in our team. An outing like today where I gave up a lot of runs, my guys had my back. I think that's the definition of a true team, when you need to pick someone else up when someone else isn't doing too good. I believe in our guys, and just proud of them.

On what kind of challenges the WVU lineup gave you today
Kade: I felt it wasn't necessarily them. I wasn't commanding the fastball and working off of that as well. Fell into a rhythm for a little bit, but they put up a couple good at-bats. I don't think it was them; it was just me not making the pitches when I had to.
On how much the two layoffs affected things and affected his rhythm
Kade: I don't think it affected it at all. As a pitcher you go through those all the time. It's how you bounce back from those. It's a part of what we do.

Cameras Catch Rory McIlroy Meltdown at Oakmont Club in US Open
Cameras Catch Rory McIlroy Meltdown at Oakmont Club in US Open originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Cameras in the grandstands and on broadcasting towers were rolling as Rory McIlroy reached his breaking point during the second round of the U.S. Open at Oakmont Country Club. Advertisement After misplacing his drive at the drivable par‑4 17th, McIlroy spun around in frustration and unleashed a powerful swing, obliterating the white tee marker with his driver. The outburst quickly went viral on social media, underscoring just how punishing Oakmont can be. He was not the only one; several others, like Scottie Scheffler and Shane Lowry, also lost their cool during the event. Despite that meltdown and an earlier club‑throw on the par‑5 12th, McIlroy rallied when it mattered most. After flirting with disaster through much of his round, he rolled in a clutch five‑foot birdie putt on the 18th hole to card a 72 and squeeze past the cutline at six‑over par. Rory McIlroy plays his shot from the 12th tee during the first round.© Bill Streicher-Imagn Images "This should be at least a fine if not further penalty. He has played a tough Open and performed poorly before so this emotion isn't new." A fan commented. Advertisement "Was glad to see him get the slam but hard to root for a guy who behaves like this" Another said. "Good thing he won at Augusta cuz my man does not handle failure any better than a petulant child." One fan posted. "Classless behavior from Rory McIlroy. Don't judge someone's character from how they act in victory, judge it by how they act in defeat. Rory has no class." Another wrote. "My kids are happily watching the US Open and just saw Rory McIlroy destroy the tee marker. They are scarred for life, asked me to turn it off. What a terrible example he just set" A fan expressed. Advertisement "For someone who's carried the PGA Tour's banner. Rory McIlroy's recent behavior, media silence, outbursts, board drama, feels off. Not a great look. ⛳️👀" Another said.

This Date in Baseball - Astros are the first team to throw two immaculate innings in the same game
June 15 1902 — Corsicana defeated Texarkana 51-3 in a Texas League game. Nig Clark of Corsicana took advantage of the small park and hit eight homers. Some telegraph operators, thinking there was a mistake, reported the score as 5-3. 1925 — The Philadelphia Athletics went into the last half of the eighth inning trailing 15-4 and scored 13 runs to defeat Cleveland 17-15. 1938 — Four days after pitching a no-hitter against the Boston Braves, Johnny Vander Meer of the Cincinnati Reds pitched his second straight no-hit game, defeating the Dodgers 6-0 in the first night game played in Brooklyn. 1952 — The St. Louis Cardinals, down 11-0 entering the fifth inning, came back for a 14-12 triumph over the New York Giants in the first game of a doubleheader and set a National League record for best comeback. 1963 — San Francisco's Juan Marichal pitched a no-hitter against the Houston Colts for a 1-0 victory, the first Giants no-hitter since Carl Hubbell's in 1929. 1976 — The Pittsburgh Pirates and Houston Astros were 'rained in' at the Houston Astrodome as 10 inches of rain fell on the city. Only members of both teams were able to make it to the stadium. Umpires, fans and stadium personnel were unable to make it through the water. 1980 — Cleveland Indian Jorge Orta collected six hits, a double and five singles, and scored four times in a 14-5 triumph over the Minnesota Twins. Toby Harrah had seven RBIs. 1992 — Jeff Reardon broke Rollie Fingers' career save mark of 341 when he preserved a 1-0 victory for the Boston Red Sox with one scoreless inning against the New York Yankees. 2002 — A double in the fifth inning of Texas' 4-0 loss to Houston gave Rafael Palmeiro 1,000 career extra-base hits. He became the 25th major leaguer to reach that mark. 2016 — Miami's Ichiro Suzuki raised his career total in the Japanese and North American major leagues to 4,257, passing Pete Rose's record Major League Baseball total. Suzuki had two hits for the Marlins in a 6-3 loss to the San Diego Padres, Suzuki had 1,278 hits for Orix in Japan's Pacific League (1992-00) and has 2,979 with Seattle, the New York Yankees and Marlins.

The freefalling Mets dropped four consecutive, 12 of 13 and 19 of 23. After starting the season 11-1, the Mets (28-38) went from 10 games over .500 to 10 games under earlier than any team in major league history. The previous mark was held by the 2011 Marlins, who did it in their 76th game. 2020 — The impasse over the resumption of the MLB season gets deeper, as CommissionerRob Manfred now states that there may not be a season at all. It was expected that he would decree a 50-game season, as allowed by the March 26th agreement between the MLBPA and owners, but he is now reluctant to do so. 2022 — The Astros are the first team to throw two immaculate innings in the same game, as Luis Garcia strikes out the side on nine pitches in the 2nd, and Phil Maton repeats the feat in the 7th. In both cases the three batters for the Rangers are the same: Nathaniel Lowe, Ezequiel Duran and Brad Miller. Garcia and Maton are respectively the 8th and 9th pitchers to accomplish the feat for Houston. _____

Broncos roster: Trent Sherfield (No. 5) looking to win key special teams role
Broncos Wire's 90-man offseason roster series continues today with a look at eighth-year wide receiver Trent Sherfield, No. 5. Before the Broncos: Sherfield (6-1, 206 pounds) entered the league as an undrafted free agent out of Vanderbilt with the Arizona Cardinals in 2018. He spent time with five NFL teams before landing in Denver, most recently playing for the Minnesota Vikings last fall. The 29-year-old receiver has 86 career receptions for 1,013 yards and six touchdowns to go along with 1,252 career snaps on special teams. Advertisement Broncos tenure: Denver signed Sherfield to a two-year, $6 million contract this spring. After the team lost special teams ace Tremon Smith during free agency, Sherfield is among the candidates to fill a key role in the kicking game this fall. Chances to make the 53-man roster: Likely. Sherfield is not a lock, but he has a strong chance to make the squad thanks to his special teams contributions. Broncos coach Sean Payton has placed an emphasis on special teams since he arrived in 2023, and that will help Sherfield's chances of making the squad. Related: These 25 celebrities are Broncos fans.
