The logjam actually serves as a positive in the long-run. Every guy in the equation is motivated to keep the intensity higher throughout the season, pushing each other to perform at their best.
Scheierman exploded in the third for 14 points, which included four 3-pointers - each seemingly increasing in difficulty, until finally, he lofted a 30-foot rainbow step-back jumper over Goga Bitadze that hit nothing but net in a way that only the best shooters on a heater seem able to achieve.
The Sox stormed out to a 3-0 lead: one run in the second two in the third, all manufactured. Then Brayan Bello's wildness caught up with him, and he exited with a bases-loaded situation and the Sox up 3-1.
The Orioles played the Nationals this weekend at Camden Yards, as the club unveiled new additions to one of the best parks in the sport. Instead of pumping out another Spring Training game in Sarasota, they went back home with just days before the season begins in earnest.

With that in mind, the topic of this year's annual Boston.com March Madness-themed bracket is a simple question: What is the best soundbite in Boston sports history?
If you're looking for a bar or restaurant to watch the Patriots take on the Seahawks in Super Bowl LX this Sunday, there's a lot to consider: Which bar has the best food? How many TV screens are there, and how big are they? Would you prefer an atmosphere closer to a Super Bowl party in your living room or a packed Lansdowne Street bar at last call?
I mean, Drake's gotta hold on to the ball better going forward. Even against Jarrett Stidham, we can't afford to put the ball on the turf four or five times against a tough Denver defense on the road. I'm gonna need more help from the left side of the O-line, too-Will Campbell, I still believe in you, but come on dude. The defense has been hummin', though, and I can't imagine Stidham will play a 100% clean game. Go chase after him, make him poop his pants, and go win us a conference title.
