20-year-old Japanese pitcher Sasaki Ruki extends his winning streak to 17

In his first start since Japan's first perfect game in professional baseball since 1994, Ruki Sasaki came close to playing again for the Chiba Rakuten Marines after an eight-inning perfect loss to the Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters. #Japanesepitching #phenomRoki #Sasaki #20 How do you improve perfection? Roki Sasaki is trying to find out. In his first start since Japan's first perfect game in professional baseball since 1994, 20-year-old Sasaki came close to returning to Chiba after being picked after eight perfect innings in a 1-0 loss to the Hokkaido Nippon-Ham Fighters Lotte Marines. Sunday. The right-hander racked up 14 strikeouts after throwing 102 pitches before being eliminated in a scoreless game. Worth noting: He was eliminated after hitting the sideline in the eighth inning, and he's still reportedly pitching at 101 mph. Sasaki didn't let opposing batters get to the bases in an NPB-record 52 straight outs. In four games this season, Sasaki has a 1.16 ERA with 56 strikeouts and has seven hits and two walks in 31 innings. "He [Sasaki] was too tough," said Chusei Mannami, whose game-winning homer -- the Warriors' only hit of the game -- came from the third Marines pitch in the 10th inning. "How did that fork ball fall? Forget it." In his final start, Sasaki set an NPB record with his 19 strikeouts against the Orix Buffaloes while completing just the 16th perfect game in league history. He also hit a streak of 13 hits, a record in Japanese professional baseball, according to Kyodo News. Sasaki, who rose to fame as a high school pitcher with his high-speed fastball, reportedly attracted a lot of interest from MLB teams before signing with Chiba Rakuten at age 18 in 2020.



Coach K slaps Duke's win over Texas Tech: "What the hell, why not?"
Coach K slaps Duke's win over Texas Tech: "What the hell, why not?"

The Blue Devils are headed to their third Elite Eight Appearance in five seasons. #CoachK #AddressesFloor #SlapDuke With the stakes as high as they’ve been all season, Duke found a way to grind out a 78–73 win over Texas Tech in the Sweet 16 on Thursday night. The closing minute of the contest saw the Blue Devils come up with a number of pivotal defensive stops on their way to victory, an effort sparked by a tradition as fabled as Mike Krzyzewski himself. With his team up 73–68, the 75-year-old coach got down on one knee and slapped the floor which expectedly prompted a synchronized response from his players. Moments later, Coach K walked away with a milestone 100th NCAA tournament win. Krzyzewski, the credited inventor of the infamous floor slap, was asked after the game why he responded that way in the moment, to which he replied, “What the hell, why not?” He continued, “Our guys really wanted that because it’s kind of like across the bridge to ‘The Brotherhood,’ you know? They can now say they did that. Hopefully, they can say that again, at least on Saturday.” Coach K’s patented floor slap has rallied a number of Duke wins and rattled more than its share of opponents since it was introduced during the 1986 season, Krzyzewski’s sixth in Durham. Not to mention, the tactic has found its way into all levels of the sport and will likely be a part of the game in the years to come. The Blue Devils will now advance to their third Elite Eight in five seasons and have a chance to send Coach K to a 13th career Final Four. Three more wins would place this team in rare company and give the program and its legendary coach a sixth NCAA title. It remains to be seen exactly how Duke’s journey will end, but for at least one more game, Krzyzewski was able to deliver yet another signature moment going into Saturday’s with No. 4 Arkansas.
