Stat Line Of The Night

The Stat Line Of The Night — 5/16/11 — Matt LaPorta
We could probably award this Stat Line of the Night to the entire Cleveland Indians line-up, seeing as how they accumulated a total of 19 runs and 20 hits, including an incredible fourth inning that saw them record ten runs against the Kansas City Royals last night. However, the Stat Line has always been about [...]

The Stat Line Of The Night — 5/15/11 — Jose Bautista
Playing north of the 49th parallel, the Toronto Blue Jays’ Jose Bautista rarely gets the recognition he deserves. Last season he led the majors in home runs with a total of 54. This season he appears to be well on his way to earning the home run title once again, and his performance yesterday afternoon [...]

The Stat Line Of The Night — 5/12/11 — Carlos Beltran
Carlos Beltran entered yesterday afternoon’s game against the Colorado Rockies with an unimpressive five home runs and 18 RBIs on the season. He would improve upon those totals in a big way, thanks in large part to three at bats that would all end the same way. If chicks really do dig the long ball, [...]

The Stat Line Of The Night — 5/11/11 — Dwyane Wade
Game Five last night between the Miami Heat and the Boston Celtics may have very well marked the passing of the torch from one “Big Three” to another. After acquiring Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen during the summer of 2007, the Celtics “Big Three,” which also includes Paul Pierce, dominated the Eastern Conference for the [...]

The Stat Line Of The Night — 5/10/11 — Valtteri Filppula
Through the first 50 minutes of Game 6 last night between the San Jose Sharks and the Detroit Red Wings, Antti Niemi was busy making a strong case for our “Stat Line of the Night.” The Sharks goaltender was easily the busier of the two netminders, as he continued to frustrate the Red Wings’ shooters, [...]

The Stat Line Of The Night — 5/9/11 — LeBron James
After leaving Miami with a 2-0 series lead, the Miami Heat did not want to return to the friendly confines of American Airlines Arena with the series tied at 2-2. In order to prevent such a scenario from happening, they would need to win Game 4 on the road in Boston. They did just that, [...]
-
The Stat Line Of The Night — 5/8/11 — Pavel Datsyuk
There were questions surrounding the health and availability of Pavel Datsyuk entering Game 5, as he was listed as questionable with a wrist injury. However, with the Wings in a must-win situation, Datsyuk not only took part in last night’s game, but he would prove to be the difference in the Wings’ 4-3 comeback victory. [...]
-
The Stat Line Of The Night — 5/5/11 — David Price
The Tampa Bay Rays’ David Price was looking to rebound following a season-worst performance where he gave up 12 hits and five earned runs over 4 1/3 innings during a loss against the Angels. He did just that yesterday afternoon. The Toronto Blue Jays’ hitters had no answer for Price on this day, as they [...]

The Stat Line Of The Night — 5/4/11 — Devin Setoguchi
After winning the first two games at home, the San Jose Sharks traveled to Detroit with the opportunity put a stranglehold on the series with a Game 3 victory. Unlike the first two games in San Jose, the Sharks were not necessarily the better team on the ice in this game, however, they did have [...]
-
The Stat Line Of The Night — 5/3/11 — Ryan Kesler
After scoring a career-high 41 goals during the regular season, Ryan Kesler has seen his production drop dramatically in the playoffs. In fact, heading into Game 3 of their second-round series against the Nashville Predators, the Canucks’ forward had failed to record a single goal in nine post-season games. Many critics were beginning to wonder [...]
-
The Stat Line Of The Night — 5/2/11 — Joe Johnson
Not many people were giving the Atlanta Hawks much of a chance heading into their second-round series against the Chicago Bulls, but last night’s performance had to change the minds of at least a few individuals. The Hawks wasted no time stealing home-court advantage from the Chicago Bulls, thanks in large part to the hot [...]
-
The Stat Line Of The Night — 5/1/11 — Vincent Lecavalier
Entering their second round series against the Washington Capitals, the Tampa Bay Lightning would have been pleased to come away with a split in the first two games at the Verizon Center. However, after winning Game 1 by a score of 4-2, the Lightning’s plans for the first two games quickly changed from split to [...]
-
The Stat Line Of The Night — 4/28/11 — Dirk Nowitzki
Since the beginning of their 2006 NBA Finals series against the Miami Heat, the Dallas Mavericks have endured a terrible 2-18 record on the road in the playoffs. Those struggles away from home have resulted in the Mavs being eliminated in the first round in three of the past four post-seasons. They had a chance [...]
-
The Stat Line Of The Night — 4/27/11 — Dwayne Roloson
After trailing their best-of-seven opening round series 3-1, the Tampa Bay Lightning were able to force a Game 7 and were suddenly one win away from advancing to the second round of the playoffs for the first time since they raised the Stanley Cup in 2004. Winning a do-or-die game on the road at the [...]
-
The Stat Line Of The Night — 4/26/11 — Roberto Luongo
We could have given this honor to the Canadiens’ Carey Price, whose 31 save performance helped push their series to seven games. Or we could have given it to Alex Burrows, who scored both Canucks goals last night. Both players would have been worthy candidates of the “Stat Line of the Night,” but there was [...]
