TWEETS OF THE DAY
@AdamSpankyEaton RIP Groove...to the hitting coach that told me to swing hard just in case. The game will truly miss you #DonBaylor Nationals outfielder Adam Eaton, on 28-year baseball veteran Don Baylor, who died Monday at 68 from cancer. Baylor won the 1979 American League MVP Award with the Angels and managed the Rockies and Cubs. @CarliLloyd So sad. My all time favorite. Why I chose #10 jersey. Thoughts and prayers go out to his family and loved ones. U.S. women’s soccer star Carli Lloyd, on the death Sunday of catcher Darren Daulton, 55, after a lengthy battle with brain cancer. The three-time All-Star played 14 years in the majors. LAST WORD “THE 400 IS NO JOKE. YOU HAVE TO HAVE A LOT OF GUTS.” Jamaican sprinter Yohan Blake, on Wayde Van Niekerk’s attempt at the 200-400 double in the world championships in London. The South African made it through the first round of the 200 meters Monday and has the 400 final Tuesday.
