Here's what changes are coming for the Columbus Clippers, Triple ... (The Columbus Dispatch)

Manager Andy Tracy, catcher Bo Naylor and other members of the Columbus Clippers react to the 2023 rules and format changes.

24, the first-half champion of the International League will face the second-half champion in a three-game series. “Obviously I knew it was there, but when you’re in the heat of the moment and you’re competing, you don’t even think about it. Pitcher Daniel Norris said the pitch clock was something he is still getting used to since he spent the entire 2022 season with Chicago Cubs and Detroit Tigers. “Maybe some adjustments here and there, but for the most part, you’re going out there and competing with the guy in front of you. The season will be split into two halves, with the first ending June 25 and the second beginning June 28. “I got banged on a couple pitch clock violations,” Norris said. “It was kind of funny,” Fry said. On Fridays through Sundays, pitchers, hitters and catchers will have the ability to challenge an umpire's ball or strike call, with each team getting a total of three challenges over the course of the game. By the time we get a couple of weeks into it, you don’t even recognize it anymore.” You just adjust to it and get used to it. It's official start in Triple-A baseball comes a week sooner, on April 24: the day before the Clippers start a road series in Indianapolis. “It’s like the speed limit,” Tracy said.

Russell Westbrook Makes NBA History in Clippers' Win vs. Ja ... (Bleacher Report)

Los Angeles Clippers guard Russell Westbrook became the first player in NBA history to have at least one game with 30 points and 10 assists for five ...

Westbrook has been a solid fit with the Clips, averaging 15.3 points, 7.5 assists, 4.9 rebounds, 1.2 steals and 1.1 three-pointers made in 30.3 minutes per game. If the Clippers can get George back for the playoffs and team him up with the likes of Westbrook and Kawhi Leonard, they have a legitimate chance to go the distance in the tightly contested Western Conference. His heightened level of play has come at the perfect time for the Clippers, who are in a heated playoff race and are without injured All-Star wing Paul George. He has started all 16 games he has appeared in for the Clippers, and he is shooting 49.2 percent from the field, which is well above his career mark of 43.8 percent. The Jazz waived Westbrook before he ever appeared in a game for them, and he quickly caught on with the Clippers, replacing John Wall and Reggie Jackson after they were waived and traded, respectively. The Lakers acquired Westbrook in a trade with the Wizards prior to the 2021-22 season in hopes that he could form a superstar trio with LeBron James and Anthony Davis, but he never fit in as intended.

The Lakers would go on to trade Westbrook as part of a three-team and eight-player deal to the Utah Jazz, and of course, Westbrook never stepped onto the court for the Jazz. Westbrook has been and always will be a player who thrives with the ball in his hand. That doesn't exactly look like a vampire sucking the life out of a locker room. Westbrook finished the game with a season-high 36 points, 10 assists, and 4 rebounds. The fit, however, never worked, as the Lakers and Westbrook never seem to be on the same page. Westbrook would then take his talents to the Lakers, and in 2021-22 his points dropped to 18.5 per game which was expected since he was now playing on a team with LeBron and Davis.

Los Angeles Clippers vs. Memphis Grizzlies Prediction, Preview ... (Winners and Whiners)

The Clippers picked up the win on Wednesday night and now are in fifth place in the Western Conference playoff standings, just a half-game behind Phoenix.

The Grizzlies move at the 9th fastest pace of play i the NBA and have gone over the total in five of their last seven games vs. The Clippers have gone over the total in four of their last five games as well. Bane should allow the Grizzlies to space the floor better with his long-range shooting and Jackson will give Memphis a true presence in the paint. The Grizzlies should benefit from the return of several players in the rematch, particularly Bane and Jackson. They started the season just 4-7 without him but reeled off seven wins in the last eight games without him. The Grizzlies did play the game without Jaren Jackson Jr., Desmond Bane, Tyus Jones, and John Konchar as the team rested several players due to illness and the fact that it was the second night of a back-to-back. The Grizzlies are glad to have Ja Morant back from his recent suspension.

But this was not a loss due to lack of available players; this was straight up being outshot from beyond the arc and Memphis being unable to compensate on the other end. Memphis still holds the best home record (33-6) in the league. It was a closely contested battle, but as the saying goes, close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades.
