SPEARS: DRAYMOND GETS RACIST TAUNTS , N-BOMBS 

“I’ve gotten the N-word, all of that. I’d rather not get into [where]. A few places, especially being that it is me. Athletes are just not protected in that regard. Maybe something like [the Adam Jones incident] will help,” Green told The Undefeated on Tuesday night before the Warriors’ 106-94 win over the Utah Jazz in the opener of their life second-round playoff series.

Cheer for your team. Do what you want. But if I’m playing in the game and you’re cheering for your team, it doesn’t give you the right to say whatever you want to say to me,” Green said. “This is my job, and I can’t go to your job and say whatever I want to you. If I went to someone else’s job and said whatever I wanted to say, I’d get arrested for harassment. It’s a fine line. I don’t think any league does a great job of making sure that athletes are protected.
“The fans are great, but at times I think the leagues empower hecklers to say whatever they want to us. We are in a position where if you naturally react, you’re screwed, you’re losing money. But there are great fans out there, and all fans shouldn’t be put in that category.”


GIANTS:  13-5 LOSS

-UGH MATT MOORE.....  Moore was charged with a career-high nine earned runs. He has a 6.75 ERA and 1.56 WHIP in six starts. Opposing hitters are batting .279 off him. None of that is good. 

-It is like last year ....Can't get pitching one night, hitting the next, bullpen the next...
-Won back to back games once
-40-60 over last 100
-Teams have batted around on the Giants 8 times in 28 games

Tuesday night’s game was the 100th since the 2016 All-Star break, when everything seemed to change for this organization. The Giants are 40-60 during that span, the worst record in baseball, so the night’s result certainly felt familiar. 

Moore has a 3.05 ERA in three starts at home, but he has a 12.79 ERA in three road starts – all against NL West rivals, in ballparks where he figures to appear multiple times later this season. He has allowed 23 hits in 12 2/2 innings at Chase Field, Coors Field and Dodger Stadium while walking eight and striking out 10.

Moore’s nine runs Tuesday matched the most allowed by a Giants starter since Barry Zito in 2013. Zito and Matt Cain each had a pair of starts in which they allowed nine earned runs. The last Giants pitcher to be charged with 10 earned runs in a start was Russ Ortiz in 2000.

-Manny Machado goes off and he's right - Hit a guy if you have to and move on.....


JOE TORREE TODAY:

Red Sox left-hander Chris Sale likely will be disciplined for throwing behind Orioles third baseman Manny Machado on Tuesday night. The discipline will not necessarily be a suspension; it could be a warning or fine. Here are Torre’s full remarks:

“One issue is the fact they’ve played each other so often. Once something happens, then it just seems to grow and fester and all that. Basically, in trying to keep score on who owes who what, we figured there was enough going on with both sides that we basically just had a phone call today to let them know we want to play baseball. We don’t want to get anybody hurt.
“Players deserve to be on the field. We appreciate your passion but we certainly need to have the focus on playing games instead of trying to get even, if somebody thinks they need to get even.
“Sitting in an impartial seat, you look at it and realize enough is enough. I know if you wear a uniform, you’re always feeling that you’re on the short end of it. I understand that feeling. But the commissioner made his point, without going into specifics, just about getting down to baseball. If this stuff continues, there will be some discipline.”

-BETTER BE RIGHT ABOUT FOSTER'S SHOULDER- MANY THINK IT WILL BLW AT ANY MOMENT 

A major reason former Alabama linebacker Reuben Foster slipped to No. 31 in the first round of last week's draft is a shoulder condition that worried teams and could jeopardize his rookie season with the San Francisco 49ers, per league sources.
Despite surgery on his right rotator cuff, Foster's right shoulder was worrisome enough that some teams did not consider drafting him.
"The surgery didn't take," said one well-placed source with knowledge of the injury.
Last week, USA Today Sports reported that Foster slipped in the draft because at least one team was concerned he would need additional shoulder surgery.
Another source predicted that Foster would not make it through his rookie season and that the linebacker's shoulder could give out on any hit. The 49ers' doctors, however, are comfortable with the condition of Foster's shoulder and hopeful it will hold up, though they understand there could be a risk, according to sources.
