The city of Cleveland may never lose again. The Cavaliers won an NBA championship, Stipe Miocic won the heavyweight title, and even their AHL team won a title. Now, the Indians have won 11 in a row, pushing to 46-30 overall. Is it time for a Cleveland heat check?
cavs came back from 3-1. indians are on a 10-game win streak. lake erie monsters won the AHL. might have to put $20 on the browns at 200-1

Kris Bryant, as it turns out, is a blogger. He just happens to hit a lot of home runs when he rips his pants.

Big Poppa Pump’s your hookup. Holler…if you hear me.
Now if only Scott Steiner and his freaks would come to Rotographs to help us with some of the more complex math issues.
A non-baseball story: The last two years, I was the lead for NBA Draft coverage at theScore. A little overworked and stressed ahead of the 2015 edition, I slept poorly and had a dream where The Rock came to me and told me that Guillermo (“Willy”) Hernangomez was a serious sleeper. (I ended up including him in the first round of my mock draft, and he later went 35th overall.) This is preamble to say that the 2016 draft is tonight, I slept poorly, but The Rock (nor Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Tyrese, Stone Cold, or anyone) did not come to me in a dream. It’s very disappointing.
Luckily, someone was having illuminating, mescaline-induced fever dreams yesterday.

Since getting hit in the unmentionables by a ground ball on June 12, Juan Uribe has hit home runs in four consecutive games. Ask your closest friend to rip a short-hopper into your groin at the next opportunity and you, too, can smash homers.
On the first official night of summer, which by happenstance turned out to be the first night of the sports year following the conclusion of basketball and hockey, baseball delivered. Clayton Kershaw was masterful, Justin Upton walked one off after Miguel Cabrera had obliterated a ball earlier, and Steven Wright made a night of magic like this.
Steven Wright’s Knuckleball has been ridiculous tonight. Is that even one full rotation? pic.twitter.com/291k4lZr6u
