How do you battle the sun in a baseball outfield? Most choose to wear sunglasses or maybe use their extra hand to shield their eyes from the sun while keeping an eye on the ball as it flies.Philadelphia Phillies outfielder Gabriel Rincones Jr. began the play in Sundays game with his sunglasses on his hat. As the ball was put into play, he decided to battle the sun by quickly taking the sunglasses off his hat, putting them on and re-finding the ball while it was in the air. He put his sunglasses on mid-fly ball and made the play pic.twitter.com/QemAbFuXhK MLB (@MLB) July 19, 2026A routine fly ball ended up turning into an impressive highlight that you rarely ever see. While it helped him make the initial catch, the brief delay in losing the ball forced him out of position to throw to the plate. New York Mets rookie Carson Benge had come to the plate with the bases loaded. While Rincones Jr.s play was impressive with how it came together, it did allow Juan Soto to score from third base to give the Mets an early 5-0 lead.Rincones Jr. is in his rookie season with the Phillies. He has played in 22 games this season and has struggled at the plate since getting called up. The rookie is slashing .171/.202/.300 and has two home runs with six RBI through 74 plate appearances. Philadelphia went into Sundays series finale against New York with a 55-44 record, sitting in second place in the NL East just two games behind the Atlanta Braves.

How to Watch Spain vs. Argentina Players to Watch in Spain vs. Argentina match Lionel Messi continues to define Argentina's World Cup run at 39 years old. The captain has eight goals and two assists in the tournament and is chasing another World Cup title while adding to his record 21 career World Cup goals. After a brilliant two-assist performance against England, Argentina will once again rely on Messi to deliver on the biggest stage. Enzo Fernndez will play a crucial role in the midfield battle against Spain. Fresh off an excellent performance in the semifinal, Fernndez will be responsible for progressing Argentina's attack while matching up against one of the strongest midfield units in international soccer. Lamine Yamal has steadily grown into the tournament after returning from injury. While he has just one goal so far, his pace, dribbling, and ability to unsettle defenses remain central to Spain's attack. If Yamal produces his best performance in the final, Spain will have a strong chance of lifting the trophy. Pau Cubars has anchored the tournament's best defense, helping Spain concede just one goal in seven matches. The 19-year-old center back now faces his toughest assignment yet in slowing down Messi and Argentina's attack, a performance that could further cement his status as one of the world's elite defenders.

Mensah dramatically entered the transfer portal just before it closed, leaving the Blue Devils scrambling

College football has changed drastically over the last few years, and a lot of it, as with almost anything in life, has to do with the almighty dollar. One of the things that has changed recently is a ton of conference expansion and realignment. Being an Ohio State fan, we don't have to tell you that the Big Ten was in the middle of a lot of that with the recent additions of West Coast teams Oregon, UCLA, USC, and Washington.What drives expansion has quite a bit to do with culture for a league, but it also has to do with pedigree, and maybe even more importantly, the media market. After all, the more eyeballs available for league games, the more lucrative television contracts become. It's the reason why the Big Ten signed a massive TV deal the last time contracts were drawn up.One thing that's interesting, however, is to see what television markets are the biggest in the Big Ten. After all, we like to think that things revolve around Ohio State and Columbus with how many television sets the Buckeyes historically turn on, but you might be surprised to know that the media market in the Capital City is eclipsed by more teams than you might think.Here's a look at each Big Ten team and its media market size ranking. It is worth noting that the conference has the two biggest media markets in the country.

For example, many other markets in Ohio are rabid about Ohio State, like the Cleveland market. Also, New York is not a huge college market, even with all the potential eyeballs, so it's a little misleading.Still, with this many massive TV markets in the footprint of the Big Ten, it's no wonder the conference is raking in more money than any other.Big Ten teams ranked by the size of their home TV market by Neilsen pic.twitter.com/SUjHlEiXvK The Big Ten Huddle (@TheBigTenHuddle) July 17, 2026Contact/Follow us@BuckeyesWireon X (formerly Twitter) and like our page onFacebookto follow ongoing coverage of Ohio State news, notes, and opinion.
