You're tuned in to Sports Desk, let's get after it.
In Chicago, the Cubs are doing something nobody in franchise history has ever done. Tuesday's game pushed their unanswered run total to thirty over three games, breaking the previous club record of twenty-nine set way back in nineteen sixty-nine. That offense is not just rolling, it is steamrolling.
Meanwhile, the NFL world is confronting a sobering reality. A new CTE study examined more than eight hundred brains of former pro football players and found at least twenty-five percent showed signs of the neurological disease. The lead researcher believes the actual number is even higher, and the findings point directly to repeated hits to the head as the primary cause. This conversation is not going away.
And in Los Angeles, Dodgers fans held their breath Tuesday night when Shohei Ohtani was seen limping off the field after grounding out in the seventh inning against Atlanta. Manager Dave Roberts addressed the concern postgame, but Ohtani himself answered the loudest by legging out a triple in the ninth. When your injury scare ends with a triple, you take it.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
