Asked if he's upset about a Page Six report that had Matt Harvey out partying in Los Angeles the night before pitching in San Diego, Mets general manager Sandy Alderson said: "Usually I get upset if a report is unexpected. So I guess the short answer is no."

The Cardinals are the only team without a triple. Last year, the Orioles went the first 33 games without one. In 2016, the Braves went 34 games, the Orioles went 29, confirmed by @EliasSports. The Cardinals, as late as 1983, hit 63 triples in a season. Changing game. #quirkjians

Major-league batters have driven in only 52% of runners from 3rd base with less than 2 outs this season. The last time the percentage was that low over an entire season was 45 years ago (52% in 1973).

After 11-2 loss to Rockies today, Cubs Yu Darvish has 0.75 ERA in two starts vs. #Brewers (12 IP, 5 H, 2 R, 1 ER, 3 BB, 17 K) and 9.50 ERA in other four starts (18 IP, 26 H, 20 R, 19 ER, 13 BB, 20 K). Interesting.

L.A. story: This is the first time in MLB history that a team has recorded a no-hitter and a player has recorded his 3,000th hit on the same day.
