Brandon Phillips wanted the big hit for the Reds against the Phillies for a few reasons on Monday night. First and foremost, his team had a five-game losing streak it needed to snap. And with the No. 42 on his back to honor Jackie Robinson, the legend occupied Phillips’ mind as well. With the bases […]

The little mini-drama in the Cavaliers’ locker room after the 96-95 loss to the Miami Heat on Monday at The Q was almost as interesting as what happened at the end of the game. As reporters crowded around Kyrie Irving’s locker to ask what happened on the last play of the game and why he […]
