The ’ bullpen is going through a group yoga routine during the fifth inning. A little downward reliever, anyone? @baseball

One of the weird things about rooting for the #Padres is it makes sense to root for the #Dodgers when they play other National League teams. Nobody’s going to beat LA over 162 games, so you might as well root for them to beat up SD’s wild-card competition. #MLB #baseball @baseball

It takes talent to grab a chair and pull it with you while diving into the stands to avoid a Shohei line drive. The #Dodgers have limber ball people. #MLB #baseball @baseball

Murray with 13. #Nuggets up, 24-19, after the first quarter. #NBA @nba

Just about #Nuggets time. Game Sevens can be weird, but I have faith. A key early read — how is Jamal Murray’s calf? #NBA @nba

Now that we’re almost halfway through the playoffs, I feel comfortable declaring the league’s biggest issue:

Find a way to keep the damned floor dry.

@jdm2 @nba — This was a major culprit back in the day, but not so much anymore. The system of running out with the big round mops when the ball’s on the other end of the court doesn’t always leave enough time for mopping up sweat.

Great throw by Rutschman to nail J-Rod at second, but the runner would’ve been out anyway because of batter’s interference. Still, the throw was more impressive when the batter had to duck to keep from being drilled in the ear. @baseball

@augieray — Hey, Augie, I’m looking to buy a CO2 monitor, and I’m considering the Aranet 4. Is that the one you use? (Yours sounds portable and useful.) TIA!

Defense wins in the playoffs. Throw in the MVP, and you get another big win from the #Nuggets.

Normally when Joker scores 40+, #Denver struggles because the other players aren’t involved. But four other Nuggets scored in double figures tonight because Joker had 13 assists with his 40 points.

Game six is Thursday in Minnesota. Hopefully, we can close it out there. #NBA @nba

Joker dominated that third quarter, which is what MVPs do. He has 35 points, 16 in that quarter, and 12 assists. #Nuggets up 14 after three quarters. #NBA @nba

@cwgrody@mastodon.sdf.org avatar

Good first half for #Denver. The offense isn’t flowing like normal, but the defense — especially Christian Braun on ANT — kept Minnesota out of rhythm, too.

Meanwile, Joker has 19 points and eight assists. #Nuggets lead, 50-44, at the half. #NBA @nba

@cwgrody@mastodon.sdf.org avatar

Defensive struggle so far. Joker’s scored 14, though. still up two, second quarter. @nba

Did they forget to remove the ice from an Avalanche game? Players are slipping all over the court. #Nuggets lead, 28-26, after one quarter. #NBA @nba

@cwgrody@mastodon.sdf.org avatar

Sixteen points for Joker in the fourth. (M.V.P.!) #Nuggets win, 115-107, to tie the series, 2-2.

Good game for all of the Nuggets, but Aaron Gordon deserves special attention. He guards CAT, then guards ANT, then plays center when Joker’s out, and he also posted these numbers on offense:

27 points, seven rebounds, six assists and 11-of-12 from the field.

Back home to #Denver. #NBA @nba

@mrcompletely @nba — He can do almost anything you need him to do, but he’s humble enough to only do what you need. He rarely tries to “do too much.” He’s a perfect fit for Denver.

Christian Braun nails the three! #Nuggets up 13, 8:07 left. #NBA @nba

Joker with six points early in the fourth, but Minnesota is hanging around. The are up 11 with 9:28 to go. @nba

@cwgrody@mastodon.sdf.org avatar

Joker had to sit for six minutes of the third quarter after his fourth foul, but the #Nuggets held their own. Up 11 after three, and I wouldn’t be surprised if Joker plays the entire fourth quarter. Jamal Murray, BTW, had 12 points in the third. #NBA @nba
