Descripción

In 2002, Senegal upset France 1-0 in the opening game of the 2002 World Cup. In 1999, San Antonio's Sean Elliott hit his 6th 3-pointer to give the Spurs the win over Portland in game 2 of the WCF. In 1927, Detroit's first baseman Johnny Neun recorded an unassisted triple play against Cleveland. It was the second day that an unassisted triple play had been recorded in MLB. There wasn't another one for 40 years. In 2013, Australian golfer Andrew Dodt became the first player on the European golf tour to drop two aces during the same competitive round.

Episode Swap: An American Game: A Boycott is a Flat Circle - The 1980 US Olympic Soccer Team

This episode first dropped on March 18. A few things have changed since the original airing of the podcast on 'An American Game.' The Iranian team is not boycotting the World Cup but instead of staying in close proximity to where they are playing their matches, they'll be staying in Mexico and having to travel long distances and go through security checks each day. Iranian fans have had their ticket requests pulled. A Somali referee was denied entry into the US and fans of Scotland also had their travel visas pulled just days before the start of the tournament. Sadly, it mirrors a lot of what was going on back in 1980. Check out 'An American Game' wherever you find your podcasts. https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/an-american-game/id1826903443
