The Indians a acquired reliever Oliver Drake from Milwaukee on Saturday for cash considerations.
MLB’s tracking data calls this pitch a slider, but there’s one problem with that: Rays reliver Oliver Drake is right-handed, and the pitch breaks away hard from the left-handed hitter, Leury Garcia of the White Sox. The movement makes it look like a screwball, a pitch that hasn’t been thrown by a major leaguer with any regularity since Jim Mecir retired in 2005. There have been pitchers like Hector Santiago who threw them occasionally. According to FanGraphs, Santiago is the only pitcher to have thrown a single screwball since 2015, and no pitcher has thrown one in 2019. Eno Sarris of the Athletic thought it looked like a splitter, which does go away from opposite-hand hitters, although not like that. But screwballs aren’t that fast, either, traditionally clocking in the 70s or even slower. Drake’s pitch was 83.7 mph. Trevor Bauer used to throw a pitch he called a “power screwball,” which would be a devastating pitch if mastered — something like a reverse slider. The Rays have the only major screwball-throwing prospect, Brent Honeywell, who they’ve had to shut down with major arm injuries each of the last two seasons. Drake, 31, is a definitional journeyman — he pitched for a major-league record five teams in 2018 alone, so giving him a weird pitch to try out makes sense. If he can throw this pitch with any kind of frequency, his career could be headed for a second act.

Oliver (song)
"Oliver" was the Norwegian entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1979, performed in Norwegian by Anita Skorgan. This was Skorgan's second participation in the Contest; in 1977 she had placed 14th out of 18 entries with "Casanova".
The song is a moderately up-tempo number, with Skorgan addressing a former lover (with whom she sings she broke up four weeks ago) who she sees in a disco. She tells him that if she happens to walk past him, she will ask him for a dance, because she believes that he misses her and she is prepared to give him another chance. English ("Oliver"), German ("(Tanz mit mir) Oliver"), French ("Il faut danser") and Swedish ("Oliver") versions of the song were also released after the Contest.
The song was performed sixteenth on the night, following Sweden's Ted Gärdestad with "Satellit" and preceding the United Kingdom's Black Lace with "Mary Ann". At the close of voting, it had received 57 points, placing 11th in a field of 19.
It was succeeded as Norwegian representative at the 1980 contest by Sverre Kjelsberg & Mattis Hætta with "Sámiid Ædnan". Anita Skorgan returned to the Contest in 1982 with her then husband Jahn Teigen with the duet "Adieu".

Dragonheart: A New Beginning
Dragonheart: A New Beginning is a 2000 fantasy film directed by Doug Lefler. It stars Robby Benson, Christopher Masterson, Harry Van Gorkum and Rona Figueroa. The film is a direct-to-video sequel of the 1996 film Dragonheart.
Plot
One year before his death, Sir Bowen visits the cave-home of his long-dead friend Draco, and there he discovered a dragon egg. He takes the egg to a monastery where his friend Brother Gilbert, a monk, lives. The friars at the monastery pledge to hide the dragon away, with Friar Peter (John Woodnutt) protecting him and teaching him for 20 years. The task of taking care of the dragon is passed to a young and gullible friar named Mansel (Matt Hickey).
An orphaned stable boy named Geoff (Christopher Masterson), who dreams of one day becoming a knight like Bowen, lives at the monastery, doing menial chores; he tricks Mansel into manual labor and discovers the hidden Drake, the dragon (voiced by Robby Benson). At first Geoff is afraid, but realizes Drake is more afraid of him. They soon form a friendship.

Dracula (Marvel Comics)
Dracula is a fictional supervillain appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics. He is based on the vampire Count Dracula from the novel of the same name by author Bram Stoker.
Publication history
A version of Dracula first appears in the Atlas Comics publication, Suspense #7 (Mar. 1951).
The modern Marvel version of Dracula was created by Gerry Conway and Gene Colan in Tomb of Dracula No. 1 (1972). The character starred in the comic, which ended with issue #70 in 1979. This version of Dracula also starred in Dracula Lives!, a black-and-white horror comic magazine series published by Marvel from 1973–1975. Running concurrently with Tomb of Dracula, the continuities of the two titles occasionally overlapped, with storylines weaving between the two.
Although Dracula (and all other vampires) were eventually destroyed by the mystical "Montesi Formula" in the pages of Doctor Strange, the vampire lord was revived. Marvel published a four-issue Tomb of Dracula miniseries, reuniting Wolfman and Colan, under its Epic Comics imprint in 1991, and revived Dracula and his foes in the short-lived Nightstalkers and Blade series in the 1990s. Most recently, Dracula took the title role in the miniseries Dracula: Lord of the Undead.

Famous quotes by Oliver Drake:
"I'm a firm believer the harder you work, the luckier you get. Anytime you win 10 meets in a row there is some luck involved as well. A big part of it is just the work ethic of these girls."
"It is something not too many college golf teams have ever done,"
"We've set our goals awfully high,"
"Obviously, golf is a very humbling game and at anytime you can blow up or have troubles. It just shows how tough they are not only physically, but mentally with their games."
