Well there is home talent league baseball action on this Memorial Day today and teams that
played the results from their games include Ashton beating Casanovia, 11-3 and it was
Maiso Mani Ober, Wisconsin Dells, 10-6 and Black Earth-defeated Lodi, 14-1.
In a game heard earlier on WRC, 107.7 and AM-1450, Jacob Mizorowski matched a career
high with 12 strikeouts and carried a no-hitter into the 6th inning as the Milwaukee
Brewer's defeated the St. Louis Cardinals fived a 1.
Christian Yelich had a 2 run homer and Andrew von went 3-4 as the Brewer's extended
there and L. Central lead over St. Louis to 2.5 games.
Mizorowski threw 57 pitches of at least 100 miles per hour, represented the most pitches
of at least 100 miles per hour in a single game since pitch tracking began in 2008.
The previous record for 100 mile per hour pitches in a single game was 47 by Cincinnati's
Hunter Green against St. Louis on September 17th of 2022.
The 24-year-old right-hander reached 101 miles per hour on 40 of his 96 pitches.
He got to 102 miles per hour on 22 pitches and had 9 of at least 103 miles per hour.
His top velocity was 103.4 miles per hour.
And Brewer's will continue their series against the Cardinals tomorrow at American Family
Field in game 2 of that 3-game series.
The picture that contests will be at 640 and you'll be able to hear the broadcast
of that game on WRC-107.7 and AM-1450.
The pregame will start at 605.
Elsewhere in the majors today we got these finals to pass along.
The Pirates beat the Cubs 2-1.
The White Sox defeated the twins 3-1 and it is the Orioles beating the Rays 9-7.
The White Sox head coach Taylor Jenkins has announced the list of assistance he will
hire for the coming season.
Darvin Ham, Joe Boylen and Patrick St. Andrews are all coaches with a connection to Jenkins.
The athletic.com reports that he calls them brothers and friends who will offer support
to each other.
Packers General Manager Brian Gutenkunst is ranked among the best at his position in the
NFL and BC Sports released the power rankings last week.
Gutenkunst checked in at number 6.
The move up on the list that Green Bay has to improve is postseason success.
Despite a locker room full of talent, the Packers have just one playoff victory in the
last 6 years and just 3 since Gutenkunst became the GM 8 seasons ago.
Badgers head coach Luke Fickle is on every list of college coaches who are on the hot
seat.
Fickle has put together one of the best recruiting classes in program history, but that means
victories are necessary now.
ESPN reports the coach's huge contract actually kept him on the job in Madison.
Though the 2026 football schedule is easier than last year's, it starts with the game
against top rated Notre Dame at Lambo Field.
UCLA is the number 1 national seat for the NCAA baseball tournament.
The Bruins were rewarded for their dominant wire to wire run through the regular season.
The tournament opens Friday with 16 elimination regionals, winners advanced to the 8 best
of 3 super regionals, those winners move on to the college world series in Omaha, Nebraska
beginning June 12th.
The Bruins swept the Big Ten regular season and tournament titles.
Their 51 wins are the most wins entering regional since Tennessee came in with 53 in
2022.
ACC champion Georgia Tech is the number 2 seed and followed by Georgia, Auburn, North
Carolina, Texas, Alabama, and Florida.
And tennis players at the French Open say they haven't experienced conditions this hot
at Roland Garros since the 2024 Paris Olympics and the Olympics were held in July and August.
Players for the opening 2 days of the Clay Court Grand Slam have sought to 33 degrees
Celsius.
That's 91 degrees Fahrenheit.
That's far beyond normal for late May in the French capital.
And it's forecast to stay that way for the entire first week.
Besides making it uncomfortable for fans and players alike, the sultry conditions have
also created faster conditions on court.
Russian-born Australian player Dario Casatina says I don't remember the last time it was
so hot at Roland Garros.
