Tonight in Unpacks: Rory McIlroy getting his long-sought green jacket in a sudden death playoff was just what CBS needed on Sunday, as SBJ’s Austin Karp reports that more people tuned in for the final round than for any other since Patrick Reed’s win in 2018.

Also tonight:

  • Masters 2025: Tracking CBS’s final round shot inventory
  • MLB’s torpedo bats are here to stay
  • ESPN goes (Savannah) Bananas with baseball deal
  • Closing the college football analytics gap
