Scherzer has pitched 12⅓ innings over three appearances in the playoffs, allowing two runs and six hits with 16 strikeouts. Scherzer, who pitched for the Washington Nationals for six-plus seasons in the NL East before he was traded to the Dodgers this season, is very familiar with the Braves lineup, which he said “first and foremost starts with Freddie Freeman.”
“That’s like, that’s a tough schedule to open the season,” Kane said. “You’re playing three home openers starting against one of the best teams in the league that’s been training at altitude for their whole training camp, you get a day off, that’s a travel day, you lose two hours. I’m not trying to make excuses. We obviously have to be better.”
“Irrelevant Week” generated so much publicity that in 1979 the Los Angeles Rams, who owned the next-to-last pick, intentionally passed to let the Pittsburgh Steelers, with the last pick, choose first. The Steelers also wanted the publicity and passed as well. Both teams refused to choose a player until Commissioner Pete Rozelle forced them to pick, with the Steelers winning. That led to the so-called Salata Rule, which bars teams from passing to get the final selection.
The Hawkeyes defense, which came in leading the nation with 20 takeaways and a plus-15 turnover margin, only had one takeaway. That came in the third quarter when Sheffield, trying to dive for the end zone, had the ball slip out of his hand, hit the pylon and go out of bounds for a touchback.

“Nothing is as devastating as the death of a young person. Our union mourns for Kierra Moore, and grieves with her family and the entire Clark Magnet school community,” the statement said. “Like (Phillips Academy High School), (Simeon Career Academy High School) and far too many other schools in our district, the Clark family must now contend both with the grief of their loss and the reality of a community without support.”

Northwestern appeared to be a favorable matchup for the Scarlet Knights (3-4, 0-4), who were coming off three consecutive games against opponents currently ranked in the top 10. But five of Rutgers’ first six drives ended in punts, and they couldn’t find the end zone after halftime. Though quarterback Noah Vedral hit all four of his passes on Rutgers’ only scoring drive, he had an inconsistent day, going 18 of 30 for 152 yards.
“We are proud of our 133-year-long history as one of the region’s most trusted health care partners, and we are committed to caring for our patients and our community for generations to come,” the hospital statement said. “We thank our patients, physicians and team members for their patience and flexibility during this time.”
