5 Detroit Lions To Watch In Minicamp: Jameson Williams, Jared Goff Working On Chemistry

John Means threw his signature change-up, then grimaced and dropped his head. He knew immediately that his pursuit of a second no-hitter, just like the ball off Andrés Giménez’s bat, was gone. The two-out home run in the seventh inning marked the first hit Means allowed in his third start back with the Orioles after last year’s Tommy John elbow reconstruction, and it provided the only run the Cleveland Guardians scored in Baltimore’s 2-1 victory. Means’ pitch count likely would have prevented him from finishing the feat, as he did May 5, 2021, against the Seattle Mariners for the Orioles’ first solo no-hitter since 1969.

On Saturday, it became painfully clear, right away, that most of those missing pieces are along the offensive and defensive lines. The Buffs allowed 240 rushing yards — 161 in the first half alone — and 522 yards of total offense to the tenth-ranked Ducks, who scored on five of their first six possessions, led 35-0 at the half and cruised to a 42-6 win over the No.

Javier Assad’s value to the Chicago Cubs cannot be defined by a singular role. The Cubs put Assad back in the bullpen Saturday with Marcus Stroman’s return to the rotation against the Colorado Rockies for his first start since July 31. But Assad’s performance in relief — four shutout innings with two hits, no walks and six strikeouts — gave the Cubs a chance to pull out a 6-3 comeback win at Wrigley Field. Yan Gomes’ two-out RBI double tied the game in the sixth, and the Cubs (81-74) went ahead the next inning on Cody Bellinger’s sacrifice fly.
