No. 6 Bullis pulls rank at St. Stephen's/St. Agnes, takes control of IAC

Washington Post08-02-2025

Adrien Stevens looked the part of a Big East-bound recruit, calmly dribbling upcourt as the final seconds of the first half ticked down. The Bullis senior pulled up from about five feet beyond the three-point line and let fly — the net barely moving as the ball shot through the cylinder.

Mets vs. Phillies: ‘Sunday Night Baseball' odds, predictions

Gambling content 21+. The New York Post may receive an affiliate commission if you sign up through our links. Read our editorial standards for more information. The Mets finally got off the schneid with an 11-4 win against the Philadelphia Phillies on Saturday night. Not only did the victory end a seven-game losing streak, but it vaulted the Mets back into a tie with the Phillies atop the NL East, meaning the winner of Sunday night's contest will be in sole possession of first place. The Phillies are slight -118 favorites to get the job done on 'Sunday Night Baseball.' Mets vs. Phillies betting preview The Mets will send David Peterson to the mound on Sunday opposite fellow southpaw Jesus Luzardo. Peterson has put up superb numbers in the first half, pitching to a 2.60 ERA and 1.19 WHIP in 86 ⅔ innings. The 29-year-old's underlying numbers also sparkle, as Peterson ranks in the 88th percentile in barrel rate, 95th percentile in groundball percentage, and 95th percentile in pitching run value, per Baseball Savant. The Phillies are an above-average team when it comes to doing damage against left-handed pitching, but Peterson is not your average southpaw this season. Jesus Luzardo is averaging 10.43 strikeouts per 9 innings for the Phillies this season. Michael Laughlin-Imagn Images Peterson and the Mets could have their hands full with Luzardo, too. The 27-year-old from Lima, Peru, may not have the strongest surface-level numbers, but his advanced metrics are solid. Luzardo ranks in the 81st percentile in barrel rate, 65th percentile in xERA, and is in the 77th percentile when it comes to whiff rate. Luzardo's 2.87 FIP is a run and a half lower than his ERA (4.41), which suggests he's pitching better than his results suggest. A ridiculously high .373 BABIP is almost certainly the culprit. Learn all you need to know about MLB Betting Mets vs. Phillies pick These two teams have posted some crooked numbers in the first two games of this pivotal series, but there's a strong chance that a pitchers' duel breaks out in the curtain-closer. Trust both of these starting pitchers to keep the bats quiet enough to get you to the window with an under ticket.

Braves place reigning NL Cy Young Award winner Chris Sale on injured list with fractured rib cage

MIAMI — The Atlanta Braves placed reigning NL Cy Young Award winner Chris Sale on the 15-day injured list Saturday because of a fractured left rib cage. 'He was doing his exercises (Friday) and felt like something wasn't right,' manager Brian Snitker said before the Braves' game Saturday against the Miami Marlins. 'So they had him looked at and it showed what it showed.' In his previous start, against the New York Mets on Wednesday, Sale sprinted off the mound and made a diving stop of a grounder hit by Juan Soto and threw him out for the first out in the ninth. He then struck out Pete Alonso and was lifted after allowing a single to Brandon Nimmo. 'It's just a freak thing. An unfortunate thing,' Snitker said. 'I saw him after the game that night and he was doing his postgame workout. And then I saw him the next day and I think he maybe felt a little uncomfortable the next day. But then (Friday) is when he wanted to get it checked out.' Sale is 5-4 and has a 2.52 ERA through 15 starts this season. The 36-year-old left-hander threw a season-high 116 pitches and 8 2/3 innings against the Mets. 'It's a tough blow for us and him,' Snitker said. 'It was going so good. That's a rough one.' After six seasons with the Boston Red Sox, Sale was traded to the Braves in December 2023. Sale won the pitching Triple Crown in his first season in Atlanta, finishing with an NL high in wins (18) and strikeouts (225) and a league-low ERA of 2.38. Snitker doesn't have a timeline when his star pitcher will return. 'With bones like that, they've got to heal before you can start the process, but I have no idea how long it will be,' he said. The Braves began Saturday at 34-40 and 11 games behind NL East-leading Philadelphia. They had won six of seven, including a three-game series sweep against the Mets, before losing the series opener at Miami on Friday. In the corresponding move retroactive to Thursday, the Braves recalled left-handed pitcher Austin Cox from Triple-A Gwinnett.
