• WATCH
U.S. Open
Tiger Woods will be at Bethpage looking to repeat as champ, but what about the guy he beat in a playoff last year? Rocco Mediate made a name for himself by taking Tiger to 91 holes, but he hasn't done much since: In 21 Tour events after that, his best finish is a tie for 18th. Can Rocco ramp up his game again? (Coverage on ESPN and NBC.)

160 years of baseball angst
The Indians and the Cubs, who start a three-game series at Wrigley Field on Friday, have met only 11 times, but their fans have this in common: They're a bit pent-up. Chicago (100 years) and Cleveland (60) have baseball's longest active championship droughts. You won't find a more misery-soaked series.
• WATCH
College World Series
After Fresno State's upset win in '08, this year's upstarts—Southern Miss and Virginia make their CWS debuts—bear watching in Omaha. (Do so on ESPN and ESPN2; it ends on Tuesday or Wednesday.) The Cavaliers beat San Diego State ace Stephen Strasburg, the top MLB draft pick, in a regional.
• SEE
Steve Nash at the Finals
The Suns' guard and two-time NBA MVP has yet to play for a title, but last week he made his first trip to a Finals series to file a behind-the-scenes report for David Letterman. (See the clip at lateshow.cbs.com.) Nash is funny, and he looks as comfortable on camera as he does running a three-on-one.
• CELEBRATE
Father's Day in Cooperstown
In 1994 then SI staffer Steve Wulf wrote about a fan who "enshrined" his dad in the Hall of Fame by hiding a snapshot in the museum. Wulf and that fan, Pat O'Donnell, will discuss father-son bonds at the Hall. Afterward is the first Hall of Fame Classic, with five enshrinees and other ex--big leaguers playing.
