Mark Whicker: With “good vibes only,” Suarez becomes latest to belt four homers in MLB game
“Perhaps you’ve been preoccupied with the ghosting of Shedeur Sanders or the octagon that’s become the Montreal Canadiens’ bench area. Understandable, but Eugenio Suarez did something Saturday night that shouldn’t have been swept underneath our brains, but was.

Shushkewich: Orillia producing its share of sandlot talent headed to school
