The Bucks had a 109-107 lead before Middleton missed a 3 attempt, but the Bucks got the rebound. They then turned it over on a shot-clock violation to give the Nets a final chance with 6 seconds left. They threw it in across the court to Durant, who hit a spinning, turnaround jumper from just inside the 3-point line to tie it at 109.
“When they get runners on base, they do a really good job of getting on top of every pitch that there is,” Lynn said. “That makes them tough. It doesn’t matter in and out, up/down, it seems like they are ready for it. They are doing everything they can to make sure they make those scoring opportunities as good as they possibly can be so you have to try to be better.
Zardes opened the scoring when he put away a failed clearance of a cross from Lucas Zelarayán in the 17th minute.

“I’m surprised they haven’t put up a statue of me,” Keuchel joked Thursday. “This place is always going to be home. When I came up here as a 24-year-old, had some bumps and bruises pretty much the first two years I was here, I had a 5-plus ERA. Was just trying to figure things out, trying to stay in the big leagues and make the most of my opportunity.
“I know the last two have not been good,” Ross said. “Outside of that, I thought there was the two-inning stint in San Francisco (with six earned runs) and one other bad one. “I think today the stuff was really good, I saw some 94s and 93s up there. It looked like it was in the middle of the plate.
Five people were injured, one of them critically, 16 homes were uninhabitable, at least 10 people have been displaced and at least 125 damage reports have been filed as the result of a “considerable” tornado that tore through Naperville late Sunday, officials said. And that’s in just one of three southwest suburban communities hit by what meteorologists suspect was at least an EF-2 tornado — a ranking on the Enhanced Fujita scale — which goes from zero to five. An EF-2, should it be confirmed later Monday, would mean the tornado had wind speeds of 111 to 135 mph.Matt Friedlein, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service, said there’s a chance the tornado — forecasters think it was a single funnel cloud that touched down multiple times in Naperville, Woodridge and Darien, in that order — may even be classified as an EF-3 once a team of meteorologists goes into the field to investigate its path and the damage it caused. An EF-3 is defined as a tornado with wind speeds of 136 to 165 mph.“We suspect it was one tornado. We don’t know that for certain, but based on the nature of the information and what we know about the character of this event, that’s what we’re leaning toward,” Friedlein said around 7:30 a.m.
Naturally, Cubs fans and some of the media have been imploring Hoyer to be a buyer, as if there’s a ton of prospects the Cubs could give up in return for a top starter. Their reasons for adding on are the same: every season is sacred; anything can happen in October; the Cubs have handled the San Diego Padres and Los Angeles Dodgers, etc., etc.
