BOLD Sports: Episode 37

About this Episode

Matt and Steve are talking about this week in sports updates, including:

• The Riverhounds took its first USL loss of the season 1-0 to Nashville, but had a 0-0 tie with Penn FC after.
• The Riverhounds returned home for the weekend with the Richmond Kickers.
• Pitt Baseball made it to the Final 4 of the ACC tournament, but lost to Louisville.
• It seems that the ACC has elevated PITT in smaller non-mainstream collegiate athletics.
• Mark Madden wrote an article on Sullivan and Kessel.
• In PGA news, it's the last week in the Forth Worth Invitational.
• Justin Rose won with a -20.
• Steve got to check out some of the Memorial at Muirfield Village “Jack's Place”
• It's fun to see the pros do some of the same things Steve does.
• The NHL Stanley Cup Finals!
• Game one went to the Knights with a back-and-forth game with a 6-4 final, and game two went to the Caps 3-2.
• Tom Wilson of the Caps had a few questionable hits in game one - especially the one on Jonathan Marchessault.
• Ryan Reaves' punch to the nose in front of the Caps net in game two sent a message to the not-so-nice Wilson.
• The NBA Finals started. It's the 4th straight year of the Warriors and Cavs in the final.
• The first game went to overtime, and Lebron had some issues with it.
• Hill made the tying free throw and missed the second with 5 seconds left on the clock.
• Cleveland passed the ball around and looked like they were playing keep-away to protect a win they didn't have.
• On the replay, JR Smith said he thought they were ahead.
• In OT the Warriors go on a 7-0 run, and end up with Klay Thomson ejected and the Cavs losing.
• Steelers' OTAs continue and the rookies are getting to learn the play book and figure out their exact positions.
• Jerald Hawkins, the back-up OT, was carried off the field with a ruptured quad. Third pick, Oakafore, is now up for the position.
• Jake McGee also limped off the field with injury.
• Most of the stars of the team (the “Skilled Position Players”) were absent for the second week of OTA’s, but that was no shocker.
• 1978 throwbacks.
• The Pirates lost 2 of 3 to the Reds, 2 of 3 to the Cards, and 2 of 3 to the Cubs with some drama on the base pads in the Cubs series.
• The Buccos are still above 500 by 2 games and 6.5 back in the division.
• The offense was solid, Polanco had a 3-hit night.
• Cervele and Bell went yard, but Vasquez gave up the winning HR in the 9th.
• The Pirates sitting Austin Medows when Marte came back over Polanco might be a mistake.
• The bullpen is suspect, and the offense has cooled a bit with some brained moves on the base pads.
