OTM Open Thread 8/18: It is Tuesday

Happy Tuesday everyone. The Red Sox are hoping a date against a team that is not the Rays or the Yankees is the turning point they need as they kick off a two-game set against the Phillies tonight starting at 7:30 PM ET. They’ll have Zack Godley going up against Zach Eflin in a battle of the spellings of Zack/h. There’s also some day baseball today with three games at 4:00 PM ET or earlier, highlighted by Rockies-Astros at 3:00 PM ET. In the NBA, there are four first round games on TNT today, including the starts of the Thunder-Rockets and Pacers-Heat series, probably the best series in each conference. Similarly, the NHL has four games on NBCSN today including the Islanders trying to finish off a surprise sweep of the Capitals. Use this space to discuss whatever you’d like. As always, just be nice to each other.
