"Last-place #LotteGiants record most pitch clock violations in KBO over first six weeks The Lotte Giants would have recorded the most pitch clock violations in the #KBO over the first six weeks of games if the system was being enforced, averaging 10.59 violations per game according to statistics released by the KBO on Monday. The newly-introduced pitch clock is used to limit the amount of time a pitcher uses before he throws the ball to the hitter or the amount of time a hitter uses before he prepares to hit. In the KBO, pitchers are given 18 seconds to pitch with the bases empty and 23 seconds with runners on base. But while the clock was introduced this year, it is not currently being enforced. Pitch times and violations are being monitored by the KBO, but there are currently no punishments for violating the clock. In the 34 games the #Giants have played since the start of the 2024 season, the Busan club has recorded 360 pitch clock violations for an average of 10.59 per game. The Hanwha Eagles come in second at an average 8.69, followed by the SSG Landers at 7.81, Kia Tigers at 6.06, Kiwoom Heroes at 5.85, NC Dinos at 5.09, Doosan Bears at 4.89, Samsung Lions at 4.83, LG Twins at 4.3 and KT Wiz at 3.38. The Hanhwa Eagles bow their heads after losing a KBO game against KT Wiz at Suwon KT Wiz Park in Suwon, Gyeonggi on April 24. [NEWS1] The Hanhwa Eagles bow their heads after losing a KBO game against KT Wiz at Suwon KT Wiz Park in Suwon, Gyeonggi on April 24. [NEWS1] In total, there has been 2,173 pitch clock violations recorded across the 178 games played as of Sunday, which is an average of 12.21 per game. In the MLB, which has used an enforced pitch clock since last year, the average number of violations across the first month this year was just 0.32, with 74 percent of games played without a single violation, according to the Washington Post last week. Alongside the clock violations, the Giants also lead the league with the highest average game length, at three hours and 13 minutes, followed by the Dinos at three hours and 10 minutes, the Tigers and Landers at three hours and nine minutes, the Eagles at three hours and eight minutes, the Twins at three hours and seven minutes, the Lions and Bears at three hours and six minutes, the Wiz at two hours and 59 minutes and the Heroes at two hours and 58 minutes. The extra time taken has not benefited the Giants, who currently sit in 10th place on the KBO table. The Eagles, who had the second-highest average number of violations, sit in ninth place, behind the Wiz in eighth and the Heroes in seventh. The Bears sit in sixth, behind the reigning champions Twins in fifth, Landers in fourth, Lions in third and Dinos in second. The Tigers lead the table, one game clear of the Dinos."

NHL '94 "Game of the Night" Lightning @ Panthers "2024 Eastern Conference playoff" game 5
Aleksander Barkov remembers the disappointment of years past. The Tampa Bay Lightning had eliminated his Florida Panthers from the NHL playoffs in each of their previous three meetings, and if the Panthers wanted to cement themselves as one of the NHL's best, this year's result needed to be different. “At some point you knew you were going to have them again," Barkov said, "and you've got to be able to get over that hump, and we did it this year.” Barkov and Carter Verhaege each had two goals and an assist to go along with 31 saves from Sergei Bobrovsky, and the Panthers beat the Lightning 6-1 in Game 5 on Monday night to clinch their first-round series and advance in the NHL playoffs. Niko Mikkola had a goal and an assist, Evan Rodrigues also scored and Matthew Tkachuk had two assists for the Panthers, who won a playoff series against Tampa Bay for the first time in franchise history and clinched a postseason series at home for only the fourth time. Florida bested Boston and Philadelphia on home ice in the first two rounds of the 1996 playoffs, then eliminated Carolina at home in last season’s Eastern Conference finals en route to their second Stanley Cup Final appearance. The Panthers didn’t downplay it: Monday night’s win meant a lot. All three playoff series between the two teams have come in the last four years, with Tampa Bay winning the first one 4-2 in 2021 and then sweeping Florida in 2022. The Panthers won the first three games this year before the Lightning avoided elimination with a 6-3 win in Game 4, forcing the Panthers to close out the series on home ice. “This was a big series for us," said Tkachuk, who had three goals and six assists in the first round. “We always knew that for us ultimately to win it all, it was probably going to have to go through Tampa at some point, so just an amazing feeling closing it out at home.” Victor Hedman scored for the Lightning, which was eliminated in the first round for the second straight year after reaching the Final three straight years. Andrei Vasilevsky stopped 33 shots. Verhaeghe opened scoring for the Panthers with a four-on-four goal just 45 seconds into the second period. Verhaeghe grabbed his own rebound and wristed a shot past Vasilevsky. Barkov gave Florida a 2-0 lead when he pounced on a rebound for a short-handed goal — his first of the playoffs — at 7:22 of the second period. He added another at 8:54 of a four-goal third to restore the Panthers' two-goal cushion after Hedman got the Lightning on the board 59 seconds after Barkov's first score. The Panthers had 22 shots on goal in the second, which is the second-most in a single period of a playoff game in franchise history. Florida had 23 shots in the third period of a playoff win against Pittsburgh in 1996. Rodrigues added a score for good measure with less than six minutes left to play on a wrist shot that was his first goal of the playoffs, and Verhaeghe scored an empty-netter with just under four minutes to play to stretch his franchise-record goals total to 20. Mikkola added to the onslaught with another empty-netter nearly three minutes later. Anthony Cirelli appeared to have scored Tampa Bay's first goal when he tapped a loose puck past Bobrovsky with seven minutes left in the first period. The goal was overturned, however, after the Panthers challenged for goaltender interference. Former Panther Anthony Duclair's right skate made contact with Bobrovsky as he was trying to make the save. The Lightning had another goal waved off in the second period when Mikhail Sergachev appeared to tie it on a long-range shot from the blue line. The goal was immediately waved off because of goaltender interference by Cirelli, and upheld after a failed Tampa Bay challenge. Lightning coach Jon Cooper said he didn't feel Duclair's interference was “egregious” enough to warrant disallowing the goal. "Now we have to rebound from that. We do, and then the next one is a net-front battle. I will give the goallie credit — He quit on the play. He completely quit. There was maybe incidental contact at most. “Net-front battles aren't allowed anymore?" Cooper continued. "That's part of everybody's game. The boxing out that goes there is like prison rules in the playoffs. But it's not prison rules for the goallie? ... And when the players are working so hard on both teams, like I said it's a war down there, I think we're letting the goallies off the hook.” The Lightning's NHL-best power play during the regular season was inconsistent in this first round. Tampa Bay had two man-advantages in the first 10 minutes of the opening period — Florida killed them both off — and finished the game 0 for 3. NEXT The Panthers will play either Boston or Toronto in the second round. Boston leads that series 3-1 with Game 5 on Tuesday.
