From acrobatic grabs to running backs (RBs) tossing touchdowns (TDs), this NFL weekend had a little bit of everything. Let’s dig into the digits that have defined Week 5 with tonight’s 8:15 p.m. ET Monday Night Football tilt between the Kansas City Chiefs and Jacksonville Jaguars still to come.

The Las Vegas Aces boast a commanding 2-0 lead in the WNBA’s first-ever best-of-seven Finals following yesterday’s 91–78 win over the Phoenix Mercury. The series now shifts from Vegas to Phoenix ahead of Wednesday’s Game 3…but not before we discuss the latest from the hardwood.

Yesterday marked just the second time in baseball’s long history with three winner-take-all games on the same day. Take a deep breath and steady that heart rate as we recap what went down on the diamond in the best-of-three Wild Card round.

But wait, there’s more baseball. With the best-of-three Wild Card done and dusted, it’s on to the best-of-five Divisional Series, with four teams each remaining from the American League (AL) and National League (NL). That’s right, it’s time for the well-rested Toronto Blue Jays to shine after enjoying a first-round bye. So ready for takeoff.

Feel that? It’s the temps emanating from this weekend’s Singapore Grand Prix (GP). Not only has Sunday’s 8 a.m. ET race already been given a heat hazard declaration, but the race for the World Drivers’ Championship (WDC) is also scorching hot, especially with just seven GPs to go.

And just like that, the MLB playoffs are underway with yesterday’s mostly low-scoring but always high-stakes quadruple-header of Wild Card action. This opening round is best-of-three, meaning the divisional series will be set by the next time we talk. Blink and you’ll miss it.
