There was a time when coming back from a
3-0 deficit in a best-of-seven series seemed impossible, but in the last two
NHL playoffs that goal has seemed downright attainable.

It's been a strange season for both the San Francisco
Giants and Cincinnati Reds.

Dwight Howard made his choice and that was
to join the Houston Rockets.

The Cleveland Indians can ill-afford to slide any further
back in the postseason hunt, and they'll try to make a statement on Monday
when they visit Angel Stadium to begin a three-game set with the Los Angeles
Angels of Anaheim.

The Phoenix Suns are a team in transition.

Thanks to the lockout, there will be
precious little time between the end of the Stanley Cup Finals and the NHL
Entry Draft, which is set for Sunday at the home of the New Jersey Devils.

Will anything ever come easy for the St. Louis Blues?

The Miami Heat might need to have some brooms handy Sunday
afternoon when they go for the sweep in their first-round Eastern Conference
playoff series with the Milwaukee Bucks.

Max Scherzer will put his unbeaten record on the line

Central-rival Cleveland Indians at Progressive Field.

They say you never get a second chance to
make a first impression, but James Neal is willing to try.

Max Scherzer just keeps on winning as he
notched his 13th victory of the season to lead the Detroit Tigers in a 6-2 win
over the Toronto Blue Jays in the third portion of a four-game series.

The Boston Celtics will carry a three-game winning streak
into Indianapolis Wednesday night when they face the Central Division-leading
Indiana Pacers.
