Last night’s 11:00pm ET edition of ESPN’s “SportsCenter” and the 11:00pm ET edition of FS1’s “Fox Sports Live" both led with Lightning-Rangers. ESPN followed with Cardinals-Mets, A’s-Astros and a preview of Rockets-Warriors Western Conference Finals. FS1 followed with Indians-White Sox, Angels-Blue Jays and an injury update on IndyCar driver James Hinchcliffe.
ESPN’s Keith Olbermann called out his “world’s worst” persons in sports: Under Armour for issuing a “dreadful apology” for their “Band of Ballers” T-shirts that resembled the flag-raising on Iwo Jima. Olbermann also put on notice – in a three-way tie for third worst that has “never happened before” – a ball boy at a WTA match for falling while trying to get an umbrella for Maria Sharapova; Arizona State OF Johnny Sewald for catching a pitch that hit him and throwing it back to the pitcher; and Australian soccer Chair Frank Lowy falling off the stage while presenting the championship trophy. The second "worst" person in the world was a Phillies fan who took a home run ball away from an elderly woman.
