Thursday’s Sports

 

MLB

Yankees (16-14) 6 – Houston (15-15) 3

Texas (15-17) 3 – Twins (11-18) 1

Did you hear about the Orioles and Mariners last night? John Means missed a perfect game with a wild pitch but threw the leagues’ third no-hitter of the season with a 6-0 Baltimore win over Seattle. That ended a 50-year drought for Baltimore.

NHL

Lightning (36-14-3) 6 – Stars (21-18-14) 2

If you wanted to see a brawl, it was the Capitals and Rangers’ game last night. At one time, there were six in timeout, causing a problem with COVID distancing. It started with a controversy surrounding Tom Wilson. The Capitals won 5-1 over the Rangers.

NFL

Amazon Prime Video will become the exclusive home of the NFL’s “Thursday Night Football” package a year earlier than initially anticipated. Amazon and the league announced Monday that Prime Video would take over the entire package in 2022, which will make it an 11-season deal through 2032. It was initially supposed to begin in 2023 when the league’s new media rights deals kick in.

LSC

The Texas A&M University-Commerce softball team fell three spots in this week’s national rankings, to No. 12 in the national Coaches Poll released by the National Fastpitch Coaches Association on Wednesday. The Lions are also ranked third in the South-Central Region. The Lions are 26-15 on the season after losing two to UT-Tyler and splitting with Cameron.

The Lion’s women’s golf team qualified for the NCAA Division II National Championships for the first time in program history on Wednesday. They used a tremendous comeback effort to finish in third place at the West Regional Championships at Wildhorse GC at Robson Ranch. The Lions now head to Detroit and the Jack Nicklaus Signature Course at TPC Michigan for the Division II Women’s Golf Championships.

HIGH SCHOOL

Mount Pleasant High School Basketball Coach Joey Chism continues receiving recognition as one of the top coaches in the state of Texas. Not only was he selected District 15-5A Coach of the Year, but the Texas Association of Basketball Coaches recently nominated him for the Don Coleman Outstanding Coach Award.
