The TEN<\/p><\/div>\n

(\u201cThe Ten\u201d is not a top ten, but ten items worth being included in The TEN)<\/p>\n

1.) \u201cThe Mid Valley Sports Show\u201d is LIVE next Tuesday with breakdowns of the Rio Hondo, Hacienda, and Tri Valley leagues.<\/p>\n

2.) Monrovia guard (Sr.) Adrian Maldonado: 5-11 255<\/p>\n

3.) NL beats AL 5-4 in 52nd All Star Game (Cleveland Stadium) on this date in 1981. Montreal Expos catcher Gary Carter named MVP after slamming two home runs.<\/p>\n

4.) On this date in 1988 the Edmonton Oilers trade Wayne Gretzky to the Los Angeles Kings for Jimmy Carson, Martin Gelinas and first-round draft picks in the 1989, 1991 and 1993 drafts. (Kings acquire Mike Krushelnyski and Marty McSorley as well)<\/p>\n

5.) “Our goal has gotta be a top-five defense. Top 10 is the minimum expectation. We feel like the sky is the limit. I don’t want to set any goals out there, bulletin-board goals. But we have our goals in the locker room. I’ll just tell you they’re high.”— St. Louis Rams defensive end Chris Long.<\/p>\n

6.) Mayfair guard (Jr.) Eric Keys: 5-10 250<\/p>\n

7.) ”This guy knows how to pitch so well. He pitches to the scoreboard as well as anyone I’ve caught. He knew he had a great lineup across the way that we had to face, and from the get-go, he was really locked in.”—Dodger catcher A.J. Ellis on rookie left hander Hyun-Jin Ryu.<\/p>\n

8.) Warren tackle (Sr.) George Wickens: 6-3 285<\/p>\n

9.) ‘We came out here and played as good a four game series that we played all year. Everybody played their best. All the starters, all the hitters, the relievers. Everybody did their jobs.”—Detroit starter pitcher Max Scherzer after picking up his 17th win of the season and the Tigers completed a four-game sweep of the Indians in Cleveland.<\/p>\n

10.) “It is the working man who is the happy man. It is the idle man who is the miserable man.” — Benjamin Franklin<\/p>\n
