MNML Sports Newsletter July 10

Just the hits. Your weekend sports recap

Happy Monday — Back to your regular, scheduled week and no holiday weekend in sight. Strap in!

This weekend’s recap:

MLB

  • Elly De La Cruz leading us into the All-Star break with this ridiculous sequence

  • The MLB All Star week is underway with the Home Run Derby tonight and the All-Star game tomorrow night | Monday @ 8pm ET on ESPN, Tuesday @ 8pm ET on FOX

  • The All-Star game and Home Run Derby isn’t all about the honor, players make a little extra cash upon being selected and winning. Most notably, the winner of the Home Run Derby takes home $1 million

  • MLB Draft - Pittsburgh Pirates grab LSU Pitcher Paul Skenes at the top spot and Washington Nationals take Dylan Crews, LSU OF, at No. 2

GOLF

  • PGA Tour - John Deere Classic: Sepp Straka wins the John Deere classic after a double-bogey blunder on 18

  • LIV Tour - London: Cameron Smith wins LIV London by 1 stroke over Patrick Reed. This is his last event until The Open later this month, which he will look to defend after winning last year

NBA

  • This is not NBA related — besides the fact that this giant sphere of a stadium in Las Vegas is promoting the Summer League. The new spherical arena built in Vegas looks like CGI

TENNIS

  • Wimbledon - We are in for a treat this morning at Wimbledon with both the No. 1 and No. 2 both in play (N. Djokovic finishing a match from yesterday), and Ons Jabeur, currently No 6. ranked women in the world and a fan favorite from Netflix’s Break Point | Today @ 8am ET on ESPN

OTHER SPORTS

  • Formula One - British GP: Max Verstappen wins his 6th consecutive race this year, and the 11th for Red Bull Racing. Verstappen has been flat-out dominant. In fact, so dominant that he doesn’t even have to win another race this year to be crowned the champ
