Coco Crisp capped Oakland's four-game sweep of the Yankees with an RBI single in the 12th inning Sunday. To show their appreciation for Crisp's effort, his A's teammates first tried to suffocate him with his own jersey and then they dumped water, whipped cream and bags of sunflower seeds on him.

There are a few things that may surprise you about the SI.com office. For example, we talk way more about TV than sports. This was the case late Friday afternoon, when a group of co-workers were discussing the best looking women on Mad Men. (My colleague, and SI.com's NFL editor, Tom Mantzouranis is a big fan of January Jones.) I inserted myself into the conversation and then it became a discussion about the best looking women on TV. I made the statement that Glee's Naya Rivera is the most underrated woman on TV. My colleague, and SI.com's college football editor, Mallory Rubin agreed, which obviously means I was right since Mallory is a female. The point of telling you all this is so that I can link to this gallery of Rivera.
