Joe Saunders
Saunders went six-and-a-third innings, but earned a no decision in the Angels win over the Dodgers on June 19. He gave up four runs and six hits before being replaced by Jason Bulger in the sixth. Both Rafael Furcal and James Loney both went deep against Saunders, bringing his season total up to 13 home runs allowed. His ERA sits at 3.80, and his record remained 7-4.
Patrick Nyarko
The Chicago Fire ended its losing streak with a 1-0 win over San Luis, with a Brian McBride goal in the 69th minute proving to be the difference.
Nyarko came off the bench in this game to replace Chris Rolfe in the 81st minute. His shot on goal total this season is 18, while he has converted on only two. He also has two assists this year.
On Tuesday night, the Fire notched a 1-0 win over Chivas USA. The Fire took a 1-0 lead in the 35th minute when Nyarko stole a back pass and dribble toward the right side of the box.
He sent a cross to Justin Mapp, but it bounced off two Chivas players' feet before finding Mapp, who drilled the ball into the net for the goal.
Kerri Gardin
On June 19, Gardin and the Connecticut Sun thrashed the Chicago Sky 91-61, to move their record to 2-3.
It was Gardin's best performance of the season so far, as she notched season-high numbers with 22 minutes of action, 12 points, and 11 rebounds in the blowout win. She was 4-9 from the field in the win, and 2-4 from three-point range.
Two days later, the Sun knocked off the Silver Stars of San Antonio, 71-58, for its second straight win. Gardin played 20 minutes, scored five points, grabbed two rebounds and dished out two assists.
With the wins, the Sun moved to third place in the Eastern conference, a game and a half behind the Washington Mystics.

The former Hokie quarterback was cut last week from the Minnesota Vikings, after participating in offseason organized team activities. Minnesota also cut offensive lineman Bobby Lepori and tight end Nick Walker. Glennon's quarterback coach while with the Vikings was Kevin Rogers, the former Tech quarterback coach until 2005, replaced by Mike O'Cain.
