For those who claim baseball isn’t as exciting as football or basketball, answer this: When was the last time you saw a cow-milking contest prior to an NFL or NBA game?

Before the Red Sox took on the Rangers on Friday night, two pitchers— Boston’s Wade Miley and Texas’ Ross Ohlendorf—engaged in a good ol’ fashioned milk-off.

2015 has been a year to forget for Washington Nationals starting pitcher Stephen Strasburg, and his season took a turn for the worse Friday night.
