Steven Souza Made an Amazing Catch to Save Jordan Zimmermann's No-Hitter Vs Marlins


Washington Nationals pitcher Jordan Zimmermann needed a little help from his defense to get the final out of his no-hitter. Miami Marlins left fielder Christian Yelich lined Zimmermann's 104th and final pitch to the left-center gap in the outfield, but Nationals left fielder Steven Souza Jr. was there to make an incredible diving catch to save the first no-no in Nats history. On Sunday, Souza made a great diving catch on the final play of the game to finish off Zimmermann's no-hitter against the Miami Marlins. Miami's Christian Yelich hit the ball hard to left-center field, and it looked like Zimmerman may lose his no-hit bid with one out to go. Luckily, Souza saved the day. Ninth-inning defensive replacement Steven Souza made an amazing, diving catch to save the day and preserve the the Nationals first no-hitter since moving to Washington in 2005. Souza, making only his sixth Major League appearance, had replaced Ryan Zimmerman.Steven Souza -- a defensive replacement in left field -- laid out for the final catch of the game.

UFC 178 Demetrious Johnson Defeats Chris Cariaso Submission Round 2


LAS VEGAS - To paraphrase Dennis Green, Demetrious Johnson vs. Chris Cariaso was what we thought it was. Few believed that the UFC's dominant flyweight champion would be tested by Cariaso in the main event of UFC 178, and that's exactly how it played out. Johnson toyed with Cariaso for a round and a half before finishing Cariaso with a Kimura and retaining his title at 2:29 of the second round Saturday night at the MGM Grand Garden Arena.Herb Dean is the referee fro this flyweight title fight. Cariaso in southpaw stance, and Johnson immediately circles. Johnson floats in, ducks and fires off a rapid combo. Cariaso fakes a kick, then comes in up top. A little double-jab from Cariaso, and again...he's not close. Johnson already showing his quicks. Big right hand into a takedown (all in one motion) from Johnson, and he goes to work in Cariaso's guard. He steers Cariaso off the fence, and tries to step over into half guard. Can't, and Cariaso in butterfly. Cariaso doing a good job of keeping Johnson in guard. Again Johnson kicks his legs out and tries to advance. Cariaso scoots to fence, and he eats a couple of knee right there as he tries to stand. He gets up, but Johnson still on him. Knee to the body from Johnson. Now Cariaso grabs a leg, and Johnson pivots free and slams a couple of shutter-speed fists into Cariaso's head.Cariaso breaks out with a minute left, but not for long as DJ clinches again. DJ with a big knee to the head of Cariaso as we end the round. Body kick from Cariaso, and Johnson starts to move. He comes in with a high kick and then a solid combination follow-up, and Cariaso now on the ground. Johnson in his guard, and he squats to his feet, trying to advance. Cariaso starts to use his leg kicks more and more, but on one of those, he slips. DJ jumps into guard and here we go again. DJ gets him trapped and fires away with elbow shots. DJ locks in a kimura and Cariaso taps out.

Niles Paul took a hard high hit Helmet-to-Helmet Shot and Was Knocked Out


Late in the first half of Thursday night’s game, Washington tight end Niles Paul caught a pass and then was crunched between a pair of Giants defenders. A helmet-to-helmet hit from safety Will Demps drew a flag — and also knocked Paul out of the game.After catching a pass over the middle, Paul lowered his head and braced for impact from three defenders and took a lethal shot. After the hit, his body froze and he dropped the ball upon hitting the ground. Paul probably won’t remember the play tomorrow, and he’s been ruled out for the game.Those two defenders slammed him from either side, with safety Quintin Demps doing most of the damage via a helmet-to-helmet hit. Paul's hands extended stiff in front of him for a few moments after the hit, suggesting he was knocked unconscious. The ball came lose at the end, but officials ruled Paul controlled the catch to the ground. Demps was flagged for an illegal hit and 15 yards were tacked on.

Andy Samberg Play Five Second Movie Summaries Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon


The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon was terrific this Wednesday, with Jimmy’s first guest being the comedian Andy Samberg, who he plays the game 5 Second Movie Summaries with. Fallon’s second guest on the Tonight Show was NBA pro basketball player, Kevin Durant, while his musical guest was the country western musician, Kenny Chesney! Jimmy Fallon began the Tonight Show by thanking his audience for being there, then he launched into his monologue. He talked about President Obama saluting a Marine with a coffee cup in his hand, mentioning how controversial that was, and added he was “surprised it wasn’t a bottle of whisky.” Andy and Jimmy play off each other really well. This was great. They each had 5 seconds to describe a movie plot. Then it was 3 seconds and then 1 second. One of my favorite games on the show. But very hard obviously. Brought a smile to my face.The game started off at 5-seconds, but decreased in time after each round. Surprisingly, they got better with less time!Fallon and Samberg joke around during a commercial break about how Fallon tried to get a sandwich named after himself at a local diner, because Samberg just got to design a sandwich with Umami burger.

EAC NCAA Vs Mapua In Bench-Clearing Brawl


An NCAA elimination round game was prematurely ended as a bench-clearing brawl broke out between the Emilio Aguinaldo College Generals and the Mapua Cardinals, two teams already eliminated from the playoff picture. General John Tayongtong brought down the ball and elbowed his defender CJ Isit. Instead of calling an obvious offensive foul, the referees refused to blow their whistles.Tayongtong and Isit have engaged each other in a heated matchup the entire fourth quarter, which reached its boiling point when the EAC guard appeared to shove the Mapua stalwart with an elbow that decked Isit in what proved to be the Generals’ final offensive play. Mapua’s Leo Gabo retaliated for his teammate by pushing Tayongtong, prompting Isit to get in between them, which led to him getting sucker punched instead. The referee declared the game over after both benches emptied with about 30 seconds left, because everyone knows you can't control things for long when Emilio Aguinaldo College and MapĂșa Institute of Technology get together.The referee crew of Maynard Ballecer, Cholo Caoile, and Molly de Luna, as well as bouncers at the venue, were unable to keep the action from escalating. With almost every member of both teams ejected — only Jessie Saitanan of Mapua and Jozhua General of EAC did not join the brawl — NCAA commissioner Bai Cristobal was forced to halt the game.

Seahawks Deshawn Shead Proposes to GF After Game


After the Seahawks came away with an overtime win over the Broncos, Seattle cornerback DeShawn Shead took advantage of the good feelings in the air and proposed to his girlfriend at midfield after the game. There was a full camera crew there, plus Richard Sherman and several other lookers-on getting cellphone video. The majority of which are breaking the first commandment of filming stuff on phones.After the players had time to shower and get dressed following the game, Shead took his girlfriend out to midfield at CenturyLink Field, where he did something that would change their lives forever. Shead got down on one knee—on the Seahawks logo—and proposed.

PHILADELPHIA -- Two players were ejected following a hockey-style, benches-clearing incident during Sunday's game between the rival Washington Redskins and Philadelphia Eagles. Eagles quarterback Nick Foles threw an apparent interception to Bashaud Breeland when he overthrew tight end Brent Celek on a fourth-quarter drive. As Breeland was tackled while returning the interception, Foles stopped his pursuit and was knocked off his feet on a hit by Washington nose tackle Chris Baker, prompting a scuffle to break out on the Redskins' sideline.Foles threw an interception that was eventually overturned, and on the ensuing return, Baker hit him with a cheap shot from behind. Foles was hurt, but would stay in the game once the fighting stopped.During a Washington return of what appeared to be an interception, Baker sent Foles to the ground with a big hit. Things got out of control for a few minutes thereafter.A multiplayer fight spilled onto the Washington sideline. Dozens of players were pushing and punching, even players not on the field at the start of the play. It took time to separate the teams. At one point, the referee had to announce that both teams were instructed to return to their sidelines, leaving just the officials and numerous yellow flags on the field.

The rapping in Bang Bang was rapid-fire.One Direction kicks off the night at the 2014 iHeartRadio Music Festival by walking the red carpet before their performance at the MGM Grand Garden Arena on Saturday night (September 20) in Las Vegas.5 Seconds of Summer, the hot new band that is opening up for 1D on this summer’s tour, performed at the festival’s village stage earlier in the day. Ed Sheeran, who has worked with both of the bands, also was in attendance that night!Performances got rowdier as the night went on. Motley Crue's rendition of "Girls, Girls, Girls" was a frenzy of motorcycles, pyrotechnics and pole dancers. The Zac Brown Band, a country-folk group, covered Queen's raucous "Bohemian Rhapsody." A more poignant moment came in a surprise appearance by Alicia Keys, who performed her new song, "We Are Here." A rallying cry for peace, the song encourages listeners, "let's talk about Gaza ... let's talk about Israel, cause right now it is real." Usher closed off the night by bringing a crowd-pleasing special guest on stage — Chris Brown, who performed his new single, "New Flame." Their duet ended with a dance off before Usher slipped off his high tops and lit them on fire, letting them burn for a few moments before a stagehand put them out with a fire extinguisher. iHeartRadio takes its name from the music app developed by the broadcasting giant formerly known as Clear Channel Communications. The company, which owns more than 850 radio stations, announced this week that it was changing its name to iHeartMedia to reflect the success of the iHeartRadio brand.

The collie was napping on its bed, totally unaware of what was happening, but luckily for the pooch, a Texas A&M cadet stepped up and delivered a key block.

To help promote Billy's new book, "Still Foolin' 'Em," Jimmy and Billy swap mouths during Lip Flip, and tell a joke in Dutch.Also appearing on the Tonight Show was chef Nobu Matsuhisa, who did a sushi making demonstration later in the show with Jimmy Fallon and Ahmir-Khalib “Questlove” Thompson of the house band, The Roots. Jimmy Fallon was greeted to a standing ovation as he walked onto the Tonight Show stage.

He said ‘No, that was Senator McCain.”“It was a hard thing, it was my dearest friend and it was only 2 weeks after ,” Crystal said. “And to try to do him justice in 2 minutes was the task and I’ve given eulogy before but never on television and that crowd was feeling frustration and bewilderment.”Billy looked younger and Jimmy looked older, hilarious. This was one of the more difficult bits that’s been done on the show, so I do appreciate that they both pulled it off.Finally, the two took part in the late-night host’s recurring bit “Lip Flip.” Crystal’s lips were onto Fallon’s face and vice versa, making it look like the two had swapped mouths.

Devin Hester Breaks Deion Sanders Record


Devin Hester has done one thing – return kicks – better than anyone in NFL history. He cleared up any doubt about that on Thursday night. In the second quarter, Hester weaved through the Buccaneers' special teams on a punt return and got into the open field. He beat the punter and strolled into the end zone for the 20th return touchdown of his career, breaking Deion Sanders' record of 19.He broke Deion's record in Deion's house and Deion's town, while doing Deion's dance as he strolled into the end zone to give the Falcons a 35-0 lead over the Buccaneers in what's turning out to be an ugly Thursday night for Tampa Bay.Head coach Mike Smith didn't seem too upset that Hester was flagged for high-stepping, based off this exchange they had on the sideline.The 31-year-old also became the first player in NFL history to score on a punt return and a rushing play and to force a fumble and recover a fumble in the same game. The three-time Pro Bowler, Hester signed with the Falcons in the offseason after playing for the Bears from 2007-2012.

Blake Shelton And Gwen Stefani ‘Lip-Sync Battle’ On Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon


Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton wouldn't be suitable coaches on "The Voice" if they didn't know how to own a stage and the two proved they were definitely fit for their positions in a rousing, epic lip sync battle with Jimmy Fallon on "The Tonight Show" (Sept. 17). Fallon has already had legendary battles with Emma Stone and Joseph Gordon-Levitt, but a mind-blowing lip sync duet makes this one especially epic. And with songs like "Burn" by Ellie Goulding and "Call Me Maybe" by Carly Rae Jepsen, this is definitely crazy.Country sensation Shelton showed a whole other side to his repertoire by performing Taco's "Puttin' on the Ritz" before wowing the audience with his cowboy-boot tap dance.Blake Shelton also is so funny. I thought he made Gwen feel right at home. This was a great tag team of The Voice coaches.

Barbra Streisand And Jimmy Fallon Sing Medley With Jimmy Fallon In 'Tonight Show'


Barbra Streisand and Jimmy Fallon entertain the crowd while singing together on the latest episode of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon on Monday (September 15) in New York City! It's quite amazing that she returned to the show 51 years later with a new album, Partners, a collection of duets with such legends as Elvis Presley, Blake Shelton and, of course, John Legend.The "Funny Girl" got things started right by singing a medley of duets from her new album, "Partners." Since her normal partners on the tracks, Blake Shelton and Michael BublĂ©, were busy, and Elvis couldn't be there for obvious reasons, Jimmy Fallon stood in for them.Living legend Barbra Streisand looks amazing. She’s 72 years old. Her plastic surgeon did a great job. It looks like she hasn’t aged, though she probably instructed the show not to do closeups and only these almost full body shots of her.

Giancarlo Stanton Hits in The Face by Pitch (Video)


Miami Marlins star outfielder Giancarlo Stanton suffered facial lacerations requiring stitches, multiple facial fractures and dental damage after being struck under his left eye by a pitch from Mike Fiers in a 4-2 loss to the Milwaukee Brewers.Stanton was driven off the field in an ambulance after being hit in the face by a pitch in the fifth inning. The Marlins announced Stanton suffered a laceration and was undergoing X-rays and a CT scan. But Marlins manager Mike Redmond acknowledged after the game that he was not optimistic about the extent of the injury.He suffered a laceration on the left side of his face, the Marlins announced, and underwent X-rays and a CT scan at a local hospital in Milwaukee.A considerable amount of blood was visible on Stanton's face and around the home plate area. Umpires ruled that Stanton swung at the pitch, so Reed Johnson was sent to the plate to finish the at-bat. Johnson was promptly hit in the hand by Fiers, resulting in both benches emptying. Johnson, too, was not awarded first base, but rather given a strike for allegedly swinging at the pitch. The unprecedented plate appearance ended in a strikeout.The home plate umpire ruled that Stanton swung at the pitch that struck him. Reed Johnson replaced Stanton and was hit on the hand by Fiers’ next pitch. The benches then emptied, and Casey McGehee, who was on deck, was ejected. Marlins manager Mike Redmond also was tossed. Stanton is very much in the National League MVP discussion. The 24-year-old entered Thursday hitting .287 with 37 home runs and 105 RBIs.

Coach K Breaks Up USA and Lithuania Team Fight After Game


BARCELONA, Spain -- James Harden and the U.S. sprinted into the championship game of the Basketball World Cup, riding a huge third quarter to a 96-68 victory over Lithuania on Thursday night.Usa Basketball's semifinal romp over Lithuania ended with a bit of scrapping. Klay Thompson got involved with a few Lithuania players, his teammates joined him, then a snarling Mike Krzyzewski stepped in to put an end to it all.The fight likely sparked from Lithuania’s Jonas Valanciunas elbowing DeMarcus Cousins.It's not clear what started the fight or who was in the middle of it. Tempers had flared up a bit during the game when Team USA's DeMarcus Cousins nearly threw a punch at Lithuania's Jonas Valanciunas after taking an elbow to the throat near the end of the first half.The postgame skirmish appeared to come out of nowhere, but Coach K was quick to get in the middle of things and make sure things didn't turn ugly.

Mo'ne Davis Pitches 'The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon'


Jimmy bets Mo'ne Davis a Philly cheesesteak if the Little League Baseball star pitcher can strike him out.Fallon’s first guest was acclaimed actress, Claire Danes, of the hit TV series Homeland. His second guest tonight was Little League pitching sensation, Mo’ne Davis, who Fallon will play wiffle ball with, badly. Jimmy’s musical guest was the band Fences, featuring singer Macklemore. Also, as it is Friday, Jimmy Fallon did his very funny “Thank You Notes,” segment after his monologue. Jimmy Fallon opened up the show by welcoming his audience to the Tonight Show. Then, he said “Happy birthday” to Chris Christie, who will turn 52 tomorrow.Jimmy Fallon then cracked a joke about one of the favorite personalities he has to poke fun of, Mayor Rob Ford, saying “Toronto Mayor Rob Ford is back in the news after he dropped out of two debates earlier this weekend. Something come up in his schedule: 1. Get High 2.Punch a Fire Hydrant.”Along with her Taney Dragons catcher Scott Bandura, Davis squared off against Fallon in a wiffle ball pitch off. In the 10 pitch contest, with every strike counting as a point for Davis and every hit being a point for the host -- well, let's just say that if this was a real ballgame, Fallon would have been pinch hit for pretty quickly. In the end, Davis even decided that she needed more of the inside corner and buzzed the comedian off the plate. While her curveball is like Kershaw's and her fastball is her own, I think her mound presence may be Bob Gibson's.

Jacare Souza def. Gegard Mousasi Round 3 (UFC Fight Night 50)


Ronaldo Souza waited more than six years for his shot at redemption against Gegard Mousasi, and in Friday’s UFC Fight Night 50 headliner on FOX Sports 1, “Jacare” finally got revenge. Souza (21-3 MMA, 4-0 UFC), suffered a 2008 knockout loss to Mousasi (35-5-2 MMA, 2-2 UFC) under the now-defunct DREAM banner, avenged just one of three losses in his professional career, and he did it with style with a third-round submission inside Foxwoods Resort Casino in Ledyard, Conn.Jacare took the center of the cage to start the fight, but was staying patient before shooting in for a low single-leg takedown. Mousasi was pawing out his jab. Jacare closed the distance and pushed Mousasi up against the cage before looking for another takedown attempt. Jacare looked for an inside leg trip, but Mousasi’s balance and takedown defense was on full display. As Jacare shot for a takedown, Mousasi fired off some elbows to the side of the head and ended up on his back. Mousasi went for a triangle attempt. There was a moment where Mousasi could have fired off some upkicks, but Jacare avoided the strikes and ended up back in Mousasi’s half guard. Jacare fired off some ground-and-pound and started looking for a kimura.After a scramble, Mousasi’s was sitting on his bum with his back against the fencing. He was slumped forward and Jacare jumped on his neck for a guillotine attempt. Mousasi was drained of energy and his back was literally against the wall; he had nowhere to go. Jacare wrapped his legs around the body of Mousasi and torqued the choke. Mousasi was forced to submit and Herb Dean waved the fight off.Mousasi slouches shoulders and moves in, trying to create some offense in the stand-up. Couple of errant jabs, as Souza is keeping his head moving. Big exchange as Souza moves in on him, and Mousasi may have taken the worst of that. A welt forming on Mousasi’s eye. He gets blasted with a big right hand that snaps his head back! He takes it, and Jacare takes him back down. Jacare is dominating on the ground, but he’s also more than holding his own in the stand-up realm. Now he stands and circles around Mousasi, who is on his knees, and snatches his back. Can’t hold it. Sweat, and he slips off. Back to center as they reset. Mousasi huffing air, looks tired. His right eye is busted up pretty good. Jacare puts his head down and rams Mousasi into the fence, trying to once again dump him to the canvas. Mousasi grabs the fence on the way down, and Dean throws out a verbal reprimand.With the victory, Souza (21-3, 1 NC) won his seventh straight fight. Six of them have been finishes. "If anyone doubts me, they are completely wrong," Souza said through an interpreter. "I am next for the title." Souza went after a sluggish Mousasi (35-5) from the outset. He controlled every aspect of the fight, from crisp striking to effortless takedowns to constant work to improve his position and go for submissions on the ground.

UFC Fight Night 50 Ben Rothwell def. Alistair Overeem First-Round


Keith Peterson the ref. Overeem throws first, and Rothwell to center. Overeem comes in with knee to the body, which glances Rothwell. Big one-off type shots early. Now they exchange, and Rothwell fires a couple of short punches into Overeem's grill. They collide like slabs and then bounce off one another. And again, and it looks like Rothwell might have clipped Overeem a little bit as he wobbles. Rothwell, thinking he has hurt him, drags him to fence but Overeem holds on. His offense here consisted of two points of attack: kicking at Rothwell's knees, and looking for hard knees to Ben's guts. He had varying degrees of success with this but "Big" Ben did all the real damage with hard uppercuts and one big overhand right that clipped Overeem right in the temple.Rothwell was fighting for the first time since UFC 164 last summer, after which he was suspended for elevated levels of testosterone. After recording his 20th career KO/TKO, Rothwell gave an impassioned interview in which he thanked his supporters and chided his detractors.Overeem shot in for a telegraphed takedown attempt and Rothwell answered with a huge uppercut that staggered Overeem. After Overeem fired off more kicks to the body, Overeem got dropped with a huge right hand to the temple. Rothwell pounced on Overeem and fired off the fight ending ground-and-pound.

We've seen members of the Minnesota Vikings get blocked into the sky, but "Tiny Titan" could be the greatest glitch yet.The tiny wonder is none other than the Cleveland Browns rookie, Christian Kirksey. Kirksey, 6’2 and 235 lbs (in real life) was a good sport about the glitch.The player is rookie linebacker Christian Kirksey from Iowa, who is actually 6'2" and 235 pounds. One-foot, two-inches is a big for a Smurf, but it's incredibly small for an NFL defensive player.Multiple Twitter users reported the same error and had Kirksey make some plays, which just look absurd.However, when you play with the Titans in the “Madden Solo Challenges,” Kirksey is about a foot tall and looks hilarious.
