Last night Adrian Beltre hit for the cycle for the third time in his career, becoming the third player in the modern era (and the first in 80+ years) to do so.

With a promising Red Sox lefty about to make his debut, Gordon Edes gets a great interview from the Red Sox best-ever lefty debutante, Billy Rohr. Hopefully Henry Owens will generate a bit more ink in the stat book.

Having lost the Premier League a couple of years ago, ESPN/Fox Sports Asia tried us last year with the Eredivisie, which was fun but not engaging. That seems to have disappeared.

Now they're giving us Bundesliga, with Bayern and Hamburg kicking off at 1 am on Sunday.

No, probably not. In case you were asking.

And if the motorbike won't scare the sharks away, this might.

I can die happy. I have seen everything.

Was just thinking this morning I'd like to have The Bundesliga back on my cable system, then realized Dormund is toast and Wolfsburg will probably go back to mediocre once City buys de Brune. And St. Pauli is not coming back any time soon, are they?

Plus I assume Fox will have their own highlights show instead of running "Halo Bundesliga!" like the prior incarnation of beIn (gol TV) did when we last had games on TV here.
