Umpires checked Jacob deGrom for sticky substances and found nothing but a soft glowing light emanating from his arm, a warm and soothing hue that, in the words of one ump, left them "feeling in the presence of something greater, something stronger ... I cried a little."

Second sticky substance check only turned up a tiny Buddhist monk living on deGrom's head under his hat; when asked whether he's an illegal performance enhancer per MLB's rules, the monk simply replied, "Only with total release will maximum control be achieved."

Okay so: - Brett Phillips singled - Kevin Kiermaier scored from second - Randy Arozarena tried to score - He stumbled going around third - The Dodgers had him dead to rights - Until the throw to home got away from Will Smith - Allowing Arozarena to score - 8–6 Rays is the final

A 60-game season deserves the ability for you to search for a player's best or worst 60-game span. And lo and behold, look what new tool is on FanGraphs: a leaderboard of 60-game spans (12 games for pitchers), dating back to 1974. Neat, huh?
