This weekend’s recap:

MLB

  • Cincinnati Reds’ Elly De La Cruz is electric. After being called up to the majors on June 6, he’s been on fire and just recorded his first cycle in his 15th career game

Something special going on in Cincinnati 🔥 #mlb #ellydelacruz #basebal #cycle #cincinnati #reds

These are the coolest cycles ever

All cycles are cool. Hitting for the cycle isn't just one of baseball's rare feats, it's one of the most fun to watch as it happens. The cycle produces a supremely aesthetic box score. There's something beautiful about hitting one of everything: a single, a double, a triple, a home

  • The Miami Marlins may also have a phenom in 20 year-old Eury Perez, who is the youngest player to throw three consecutive scoreless outings of 6+ innings

  • The Los Angeles Angels put up a football score against the Colorado Rockies in record fashion on Saturday. Final score 25-1 with a record-tying 13-run inning. Luckily, the people of Denver are still nursing a post-NBA Championship hangover and likely haven’t noticed yet

NBA

  • Just watch this video of San Antonio Spur’s first round pick, Victor Wembanyama. He is a FREAK.

Welcome home, Victor Wembanyama! @Victor Wembanyama @San Antonio Spurs #spurs #victorwembanyama #wemby #gospursgo #fypシ

OTHER SPORTS

  • College Baseball World Series - LSU Tigers vs. Florida Gators: LSU took a 1-0 series lead on Saturday but Florida came storming back last night with a 24-4 win like it was MLB Slugfest 2004 . That breaks the record for most runs scored in a CWS game and comes up 1 short of the largest margin of victory. Series in now tied up at 1 a piece. Game 3 will be a must watch | Tonight @ 7pm ET on ESPN
