This week on Yesterday in Sports:

On this episode of Yesterday in Sports, Chris Horwedel recaps the biggest stories from Saturday, June 20th, starting with the Philadelphia Phillies’ wild 15-3 win over the New York Mets. Bryce Harper hit for the first cycle of his MLB career, Kyle Schwarber launched three home runs, and Philadelphia made history by becoming just the second team ever to have one player hit for the cycle and another hit at least three homers in the same game.

The World Cup coverage includes Germany advancing to the knockout stage with a 2-1 win over Ivory Coast behind two late goals from Deniz Undav, Curaçao earning its first-ever World Cup point in a 0-0 draw with Ecuador thanks to Eloy Room’s record-setting 15-save performance, Japan beating Tunisia 4-0 in the 1,000th match in World Cup history, and the Netherlands making a statement with a 5-1 win over Sweden.

Chris also covers Angel Reese becoming the fastest player in WNBA history to reach 1,000 career rebounds as the Atlanta Dream beat the Indiana Fever 113-96, the Carolina Hurricanes celebrating their Stanley Cup championship in Raleigh, and Tarik Skubal emerging as a major MLB trade deadline name to watch. The episode also recaps Oklahoma’s 9-3 win over North Carolina in Game 1 of the Men’s College World Series finals, Taylor Fritz and Frances Tiafoe setting up an all-American grass-court final in Halle, and Australia beating the Netherlands in the Women’s T20 World Cup as Babette de Leede makes associate-nation cricket history.
