RT @OptaAnalystUS: The Seattle Seahawks have acquired All-Pro guard Quenton Nelson from the Indianapolis Colts for a 2027 third-round pick and 2028 fifth-rounder. Nelson ranks fourth among qualifying left guards in our pass block rating (84.5) and eighth in run block (84.0).

Jackson Chourio and William Contreras are the first pair of teammates to have 2+ hits in three straight World Series games while their team wins each one. The only players to do so in four straight games (all wins) in one World Series are Johnny Bench, Lou Gehrig and Babe Ruth.

NBA players with 85+ points & 35+ rebounds in their first 4 career games in the draft lottery era (since 1985-86): Patrick Ewing David Robinson Shaquille O'Neal Yaxel Lendeborg

Robert Gasser of the @Brewers is the second pitcher in World Series history to finish a start of 6.0 or more innings having faced the minimum number of batters. The other was Don Larsen in his 1956 perfect game.

The @Brewers are the first team in MLB history to have 7 consecutive batters get a hit in a postseason game.

The Rays have had two stolen bases in each of their last five games. The only other teams in MLB history with multiple steals in at least five consecutive postseason games in one year are the 1992 Braves (six) and 1909 Pirates (five).

The Chiefs are the only NFL team in the Super Bowl era to have a game with: no 10+ yard rushes no 20+ yard passes no red-zone drives no touchdowns multiple missed field goals

2021: Cardinals are last remaining undefeated team behind Kyler Murray 2026: Vikings are last remaining undefeated team behind Kyler Murray Nobody else in the Super Bowl era has been the primary starting QB for the NFL's last remaining unbeaten team with 2 different franchises.

The Buccaneers are the second team in NFL history with a pass TD, rush TD, field goal, defensive TD and special teams TD/returned XP in a single quarter. They join the Jets in Week 1, 2018 (3Q vs. DET).

The @Brewers and @RaysBaseball combined for 7 hits in the 1st inning tonight - tied for the most combined hits in the 1st inning of any World Series game all-time.

Today, Gael Ochoa of @RiceFootball became the only FBS player this century to have four different TD runs of 50+ yards in a game. In the same game, Easton Messer of @FAUFootball became the only FBS player this century to have a game with 2+ rush TDs, 2+ rec TDs & a return TD.

Dyson Daniels had 5+ steals in each of his first two games to start the season, one of 4 players to do so this century (Kawhi Leonard - 2x, Chris Paul, Baron Davis). The only player over the last 40 seasons to do so in three or more games to begin the season is Baron Davis (4).

Amen Thompson is the only NBA player in the last 25 seasons to have a game-winning block (block on game-tying or go-ahead shot) in the final five seconds of a game against a player at least nine inches taller than them.

This World Series will be the 2nd championship-round matchup in the NBA, NFL, MLB or NHL between two franchises who had each been in the league for 25+ years without ever winning the title. The other was the 1999 Stanley Cup Final (Stars vs. Sabres).

After his 5-point game on Thursday, Connor McDavid now has 10 more points than anyone else in the NHL this season. It's the earliest date (October 22) any NHL player has ever had a double-digit lead over the rest of the league (based on point totals at the end of that day).

Prior to this year, the earliest anyone had a double-digit lead was on October 25 (Lemieux led Gretzky by 10 points at the end of play on October 25, 1988).

The @sixers are the first team in NBA history to overcome a 20+ point halftime deficit to win their home opener.

The @nuggets' Nikola Jokic has recorded a triple double in his first game of the season four times throughout his career. That is tied with Oscar Robertson for most triple doubles by a player in his first game of the season in NBA history.

RT @OptaAnalystUS: Either the Brewers or Rays will win the World Series for the first time. @ryanfagan writes how both smaller-market franchises are thriving through drafting, trades and development.

In their season openers: Bulls lost by 43 Suns lost by 41 Heat lost by 25 Kings lost by 25 Warriors lost by 22 Jazz lost by 20 This is the first time in NBA history 6 different teams lost their openers by 20+ points in the same season.
