Top: With virtually every starter on the sideline for the Buffalo Bills, many of the team's youngsters got their chance to make a first impression in their preseason opener against the Indianapolis Colts. Rookie linebacker Terrel Bernard (left) accounted for Buffalo's only score of the first half, as he returned a fumble 69 yards for a touchdown. Also opening some eyes was rookie wide receiver Khalil Shakir (right), who led the team with 92 yards receiving on five receptions. The Bills defeated the Colts by a score of 27-24 after scoring 17 unanswered points in the final 8:10 of the game. Photos by the Buffalo Bills

Bottom right: With the New York Yankees struggling to get wins lately, Isiah Kiner-Falefa stepped up to the proverbial plate on Saturday. He hit his first home run in a Yankees uniform, launching a two-run shot over Fenway Park's Green Monster in the top of the 5th inning. He later drove in the go-ahead run on a bunt single in the top of the 9th to give New York a 3-2 win over the Boston Red Sox. Image from FOX Sports
