Brown on Monday from Philadelphia for what the Eagles announced were a first-round draft pick in 2028 and a fifth-rounder in 2027. While New England did not disclose trade terms, ESPN reported the 2027 pick will be the better of the Patriots’ two fifth-round selections. The transaction is pending a physical. New England was widely speculated as the destination for Brown, who played for Patriots coach Mike Vrabel when he coached the Tennessee Titans in 2019-22. Brown was traded to the Eagles in April 2022 for first- and third-round picks in the 2022 draft. Brown, who turns 29 this month, is a three-time Pro Bowler who was selected second-team All-Pro with the Eagles in 2022, 2023 and 2024. He averaged 72.5 catches and 1,041 receiving yards in the past two seasons, compared to 97.0 and 1,476 in his first two seasons with Philadelphia from 2022-23. Brown has the two highest single-season receiving yards totals in franchise history in 2022 (1,496) and 2023 (1,456). Brown finished his four years in Philadelphia with 339 receptions for 5,034 yards and 32 touchdowns in 62 regular-season games (61 starts), and 28 catches for three TDs in eight playoff games (all starts) and a Super Bowl championship in the 2024 season. While Brown’s frustration with the Eagles’ offense in recent seasons led to speculation of a trade for months, the incentive for Philadelphia was to delay any movement until Monday. The dead cap hit to the Eagles for trading him before June 1 was $43.45 million for 2026, and now can be split across the 2026 ($16.3 million) and 2027 ($27.1 million) seasons, NFL Network reported. His contract, now with New England, runs through the 2029 season and averages $32 million per season, ESPN reported. Both teams had been preparing for the seemingly inevitable trade of the Eagles’ No. 1 receiver. The reigning AFC champion Patriots previously signed Romeo Doubs from the Green Bay Packers after releasing veteran Stefon Diggs, now a free agent. Philadelphia already had a top target in DeVonta Smith, viewed as a potential No. 1 receiver. The Eagles signed Marquise “Hollywood” Brown, traded for the Packers’ Dontayvion Wicks and traded up in the 2026 draft to selected Southern California wideout Makai Lemon in the first round, among several moves to fortify the receiver room. ===== EAGLES OR PATRIOTS: WHO EMERGES AS THE A.J. BROWN TRADE WINNER?: The day has finally come. The trade was announced. Wide receiver A.J. Brown has been moved from the Philadelphia Eagles to the New England Patriots in return for draft compensation, including a 2028 first-round pick. So which team and which players benefit, and who could take a step back after this blockbuster deal? FOX Sports’ First Things First crew couldn’t agree on a unanimous winner. It’s a fair conclusion as there are reasons both sides had for agreeing to this trade. Brown is an elite talent, who’s surpassed the 1,000-yard receiving mark in six of his seven NFL seasons. A three-time Pro Bowler, he’s totaled double-digit touchdowns in two seasons for two different franchises — the Eagles and Tennessee Titans. But now he goes to his third team, reuniting with former Titans and current Patriots coach Mike Vrabel, after a tumultuous and drama-filled fourth year in Philadelphia.

The people spoke on condition of anonymity because the trade has not been finalized. The Browns will acquire pass rusher and linebacker Jared Verse — the 2024 AP NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year — a 2027 first-round selection and other draft picks that are still being worked out. Garrett has not been seen at the team facility during offseason workouts. Head coach Todd Monken said two weeks ago he had not had a face-to-face meeting with Garrett since being hired in late January. Defensive coordinator Mike Rutenberg said last week he had some conversations with Garrett over the phone. Garrett was the unanimous choice for Defensive Player of the year last season after he recorded 23 sacks and broke the NFL single-season record. However, Garrett has been frustrated with the Browns’ direction over the past couple seasons. Cleveland is 8-26 the past two years after making the playoffs in 2023. Garrett demanded a trade at the end of the 2024 season, but signed a four-year contract extension last March with a total value of $204.8 million that made him the highest-paid non-quarterback in NFL history. However, Garrett’s frustration with the team’s direction remained at an all-time high. In March, the Browns and Garrett agreed to modify the contract and defer option payments over the 2026-28 seasons. The first payment of around $10 million was due on May 28, but was moved to near the start of the regular season. ===== MYLES AHEAD: RAMS STRONG SUPER BOWL FAVORITES WITH GARRETT It will takes years to fully assess the impact of the blockbuster deal the Los Angeles Rams are reportedly making to land All-Pro pass rusher Myles Garrett, but oddsmakers clearly applaud the immediate boost to their Super Bowl aspirations. The Rams’ Super Bowl title odds shifted from +800 at DraftKings on Monday morning to +600 following the news that Garrett is heading from Cleveland to Los Angeles. The next-shortest odds belong to the Baltimore Ravens and Buffalo Bills at +1000, followed by the reigning champion Seattle Seahawks at +1100. Los Angeles is also +600 at BetMGM, followed by the Bills and Seahawks at +1000 and Ravens at +1100. The Rams have also been backed by the most total bets (7.9%) and money (10.6%) wagered at the book to win Super Bowl LXI. It’s an all-in move by Los Angeles in an effort to win a title in its home stadium. SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, Calif., will play host to Super Bowl LXI on Valentine’s Day in 2027. The Rams reportedly are parting ways with two-time Pro Bowl pass rusher Jared Verse, a 2027 first-round draft pick and other draft compensation to the Cleveland Browns in order to land Garrett. The 30-year-old is coming off a season in which he set the NFL single-season record with 23 sacks to earn his second league Defensive Player of the Year award. Verse, 25, has 12 sacks and 22 tackles for loss through his first two NFL seasons, and the Browns were reportedly adamant that the former Florida State star was included in the deal. The news sent shockwaves throughout the league and across sportsbooks. The Seahawks, who opened as consensus +750 favorites to repeat after beating New England in Super Bowl LX, had already shifted to +950 at BetMGM before the Garrett news broke. The Rams are the +300 favorite to win the NFC Championship ahead of the Seahawks (+550), with the Detroit Lions and San Francisco 49ers at +900. The NFC West, widely viewed as the strongest current division, has three of the top four favorites in the conference. The Rams are the odds-on favorite to win the NFC West at -105, with the Seahawks at +210, the 49ers at +325 and the Arizona Cardinals well behind at +10000. Seattle eliminated San Francisco in the divisional round of the playoffs last season before knocking Los Angeles out in the NFC Championship Game. The 49ers open the 2026 season against the Rams in Australia, with San Francisco currently a consensus 3.5-point underdog. Meanwhile, the Browns are now tied with Arizona, Miami and the New York Jets with the longest Super Bowl champion odds at +25000 at BetMGM.

The 33-year-old receiver signed with the Giants on Monday after visiting and working out with them in April. The Giants also signed receivers JuJu Smith-Schuster and Braxton Berrios, according to a person with knowledge of the moves. The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because those deals had not been announced. Beckham joined after wideout Gunner Olszewski tore his right Achilles tendon in an offseason workout practice last week. There is also uncertainty at the position with Malik Nabers recovering from a torn ACL in his right knee and no guarantee he will be ready to play by Week 1 in September. Drafted 12th overall by the Giants in 2014, Beckham spent his first five professional seasons with them before getting traded to the Cleveland Browns in 2019. The top draft pick New York received for Beckham was used on defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence, who was traded to the Cincinnati Bengals earlier this spring. Beckham did not play in the NFL last year, when he served a six-game suspension for failing a performance-enhancing drug test. He suited up for nine games with the Miami Dolphins in 2024, making nine catches for 55 yards. Smith-Schuster, 29, had 33 catches for 345 yards and a touchdown last season with Kansas City, starting 12 games and appearing in all 17 for the Chiefs. Berrios, 30, is a return specialist whose addition is a direct reaction to Olszewski getting injured. General manager Joe Schoen and new coach John Harbaugh have been adding receivers since free agency opened in May. The Giants signed Calvin Austin, Darnell Mooney and Ryan Miller and brought back Isaiah Hodgins after losing slot receiver Wan’Dale Robinson to Tennessee following his 1,000-yard season. ===== REPORT: EAGLES SIGN FORMER PACKERS, SAINTS WR SAMORI TOURE The Philadelphia Eagles have signed former Green Bay Packers and New Orleans Saints wide receiver Samori Toure, ESPN reported Monday. A seventh-round draft pick of the Packers in 2022, Toure spent two seasons in Green Bay, totaling 13 receptions for 160 yards and one touchdown in 22 games (two starts). The reported signing comes amid widespread speculation that the Eagles are preparing to trade star wideout A.J. Brown to the New England Patriots for a first-round draft pick. Toure signed with the Chicago Bears’ practice roster in 2024 but never appeared in a game. He played one game for the Saints last season, hauling in one catch for 3 yards.Games Sean Mannion, the Eagles’ new offensive coordinator, spent two seasons as an assistant in Green Bay and is familiar with Toure and another former Packers receiver, Dontayvion Wicks, whom the Eagles traded for in April. ================================ RAYMOND BERRY, HALL OF FAME WIDE RECEIVER AND PATRIOTS COACH, DIES AT THE AGE OF 93 NEW YORK (AP) — Raymond Berry, the Hall of Fame wide receiver who teamed with Baltimore quarterback Johnny Unitas for one of the NFL’s greatest passing combinations and helped lead the Colts to victory over the New York Giants in the storied 1958 championship game, has died. He was 93. Berry, who later coached the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XX, died May 25, the Pro Football Hall of Fame said Monday. His family said in a statement that Berry died peacefully at home in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, surrounded by family, including his wife of 65 years, Sally. “In NFL history, there are only a handful of players who we can say truly changed the sport. Raymond Berry is one of the few names on that list,” Indianapolis Colts owner Carlie Irsay-Gordon said. “As a player during a historic era of Colts football, Raymond redefined the standard for what a wide receiver could and should be. … Simply put, not only was Raymond Berry one the greatest players in the history of the Colts, but he was one of the most influential and foundational players of the modern NFL.” A 20th-round draft pick out of SMU in 1954, the Texas native became a model for the virtues of hard work and determination. He had average speed, legs of different length, a bad back, imperfect eyesight and oversized feet that in high school gave him the nickname “Skis.” But he willed himself into a superstar through exhaustive preparation and study, whether using Silly Putty to strengthen his fingers or simulating entire games on the practice field. Over 13 seasons, Berry caught a then-record 631 passes (Jerry Rice is now the all-time leader, with 1,549) for 68 touchdowns, led the NFL in receptions three times and played in six Pro Bowls. A mainstay of one of the league’s top offenses, featuring Unitas, running back Lenny Moore and offensive lineman Jim Parker, Berry played on championship teams in 1958 and 1959 and a runner-up in 1964. Berry was inducted into the NFL Hall of Fame in 1973, and was voted on to the league’s 50th anniversary and 75th anniversary teams. The Colts retired his uniform number, 82. SMU retired his number from college, 87. A performance for the ages Berry was at his peak during a signature day in NFL history: the 1958 finale against the Giants at Yankee Stadium, an overtime classic known by many as “The Greatest Game Ever Played.” It was nationally televised and often cited as the starting point for the league’s rise over the following decades. Playing against the NFL’s toughest defense, Berry caught 12 passes for 178 yards and one touchdown, including three consecutive receptions during the 86-yard drive that tied the game 17-17 in regulation, and two crucial grabs during the 80-yard drive that gave the Colts a 23-17 win. The league’s first championship to finish in overtime helped make Unitas a hero and Berry his ideal target. “We worked and got to know each other and developed timing you just can’t get any other way,” Berry later told the radio program Sports & Torts. “He (Unitas) knew I was going to be there when I was supposed to be there and he knew I was going to catch it.” A fight for drug testing After retiring in 1967, Berry was a wide receivers coach for the Dallas Cowboys, Cleveland Browns and New England Patriots, and head coach of the Pats from 1984-89. He finished 48-39 with New England, including an 11-5 season in 1985 and a trip to Super Bowl XX. The Patriots were crushed 46-10 by the Chicago Bears in that game. “Raymond Berry holds a special place in Patriots history,” team owner Robert Kraft said. “He led our franchise to its first Super Bowl appearance following a remarkable playoff run, a milestone that was the greatest achievement in team history at the time.” Kraft said Raymond left a lasting impact on the Patriots and the NFL. Soon after the Super Bowl against the Bears, the Boston Globe revealed that several New England players had drug problems. Berry had been a source for the Globe story and his push for the team to agree to drug testing was forcefully opposed by the NFL players union. Berry, a deeply religious man who didn’t drink or smoke, had personal reasons for supporting drug treatment. His former Colts teammate, All-Pro defensive tackle Gene “Big Daddy” Lipscomb, had struggled with addiction. “They didn’t help him, they just cut him,” Berry told The Patriot Ledger in 1986. “Three years later, he was dead.” His Texas roots Berry married fellow Texan Sally Crook in 1960. They had three children. He was born in Corpus Christi in 1933 and would credit some of his success to his high school coach, his father, Mark Raymond Berry, who taught his son the basics of football even if he didn’t play him much. He attended Schreiner College in Kerrville for a year before transferring to SMU, where during one crucial game he fumbled twice, mistakes he vowed not to commit in the pros. With the Colts, he caught only 13 passes in his rookie season, but the following year the team signed a free agent quarterback cut by the Pittsburgh Steelers — Unitas. The two soon began practicing together. “I didn’t know my butt from first base about how to run pass routes,” Berry told Sports & Torts. “If you saw both of us in training camp in 1956, you may have gone away sobbing. We were two pitiful football players, good grief.” ================================ COLLEGE FOOTBALL LATE MIKE LEACH MAKES FIRST APPEARANCE ON COLLEGE FOOTBALL HOF BALLOT The late Mike Leach, who passed away in December 2022 at 61 while coaching at Mississippi State, is on the College Football Hall of Fame ballot for the first time this year. Leach’s appearance on the ballot comes after the National Football Foundation, which oversees the Hall of Fame, adjusted its criteria for coaches. Previously, coaches had to have a career winning percentage of .600 or better to be considered. In May 2025, the foundation lowered the threshold to .595. Leach had a winning percentage of .596 (158-107) in 21 seasons at Texas Tech (2000-09), Washington State (2012-19) and Mississippi State (2020-22). “This adjustment reflects thoughtful dialogue with leaders across the sport,” NFF president and CEO Steve Hatchell said in 2025, “and allows us to better recognize coaches whose contributions to the game extend beyond a narrow statistical threshold.”Soccer The other coaching requirements for induction — 10 or more years as a head coach and at least 100 games coached — remain intact. Leach won division titles with Texas Tech (2008) and Washington State (2018) and led his teams to 17 bowl appearances. His 2018 Cougars finished the year ranked 10th, and five of Leach’s teams finished the year ranked in the top 20, including the 2022 Bulldogs. Leach earned Coach of the Year honors in the Big 12 (2008) and Pac-12 Conference (2015, 2018), and was named the AFCA Coach of the Year in 2018. The class will be announced during the 2027 College Football Playoff next January. The ballot features 80 players and nine coaches from the FBS and 99 players and 39 coaches from other NCAA divisions as well as the NAIA. Auburn quarterback Cam Newton, Baylor quarterback Robert Griffin III, Ohio State linebacker A.J. Hawk and Wisconsin running back Melvin Gordon are some of the top players up for induction. ===== COLLEGE FOOTBALL COLLEGE FOOTBALL PLAYOFF TO STRETCH FROM DEC. 18 TO JAN. 25 The 2026-27 College Football Playoff features a slate of 11 games starting Dec. 18 and concluding with the championship on Jan. 25 at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.

HE’LL STAY WITH SPURS THROUGH THE NBA FINALS SAN ANTONIO (AP) — Sean Sweeney was formally named coach of the Orlando Magic on Monday after the sides struck an agreement in principle last week. Sweeney, the associate head coach of the San Antonio Spurs, will remain with that team through the conclusion of the NBA Finals. The Magic will introduce Sweeney at some point after the finals between the Spurs and New York Knicks. “We’re excited to welcome Sean to the Orlando Magic family,” Magic President of Basketball Operations Jeff Weltman said. “Sean brings a tremendous work ethic and a high degree of intensity that set the tone for everything he does. Sean’s attention to detail and his ability to communicate and teach the game clearly stands out. He’s grounded in competitiveness and accountability, while also embracing a modern, creative approach to coaching.” The 41-year-old Sweeney will replace Jamahl Mosley, who was let go by the Magic after five seasons and three consecutive first-round playoff exits. Mosley has since been hired as coach of the New Orleans Pelicans. Sweeney is a defensive guru, widely considered one of the brightest young coaches in the league on that side of the ball. In his lone season with the Spurs, he turned what was a porous defense a year ago into one of the league’s most airtight — his scheme centered around Victor Wembanyama, the unanimous winner of the Defensive Player of the Year award this season. Sweeney will join the Magic after one season with the Spurs. He spent the previous four seasons as an assistant in Dallas, and had past stints on the staffs of Detroit, Milwaukee and Brooklyn — actually starting with the Nets as a video coordinator when the team was in New Jersey. The Minnesota native played one season at Green Bay before transferring to the University of St. Thomas, where he was a three-year starter. “Happy for Orlando, and happy for us as he’s in the Eastern Conference,” Spurs coach Mitch Johnson said last week. ===== HALL OF FAME BASKETBALL COACH RICK ADELMAN DIES AT 79 Rick Adelman, who coached his teams to more than 1,000 wins in a Naismith Hall of Fame career, has died at 79, the National Basketball Coaches Association announced Monday. Adelman ranks 10th in NBA history with 1,042 wins as a head coach. His greatest successes came with the Portland Trail Blazers, where he spent part of his playing career in the 1970s before guiding them to Western Conference titles and NBA Finals appearances in 1990 and 1992. Across 23 seasons as a head coach for the Blazers (1988-94), Golden State Warriors (1995-97), Sacramento Kings (1998-2006), Houston Rockets (2007-11) and Minnesota Timberwolves (2011-14), Adelman amassed a 1,042-749 record for a winning percentage of .582. His teams made the playoffs 16 times and went 79-78. He was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2021 and received the NBCA’s Chuck Daly Lifetime Achievement Award in 2023. “Adelman will be remembered not only as a coach and a player, but also as a mentor to so many in the basketball community,” the NBCA said in a statement. “Our thoughts and prayers go out to the entire Adelman family during this difficult time.” He played for five teams in seven NBA seasons (1968-1975), with his longest stint occurring in Portland (1970-73). Adelman’s son David, one of his six children, is the head coach of the Denver Nuggets. The Portland Trail Blazers also released a statement on Monday. “The Portland Trail Blazers organization is deeply saddened by the passing of Rick Adelman, a franchise legend and Naismith Basketball Hall of Famer. Rick was one of the most influential figures in franchise history, a member of the inaugural 1970 team and integral coach throughout the 80s and 90s, guiding the team to Finals appearances in 1990 and 1992. “Rick’s basketball brilliance helped shape multiple eras of Trail Blazers basketball, earning the respect and admiration of the basketball community and cementing his legacy. His thoughtful leadership, integrity, and kindness impacted all those around him on and off the court. We extend our heartfelt condolences to the entire Adelman family, and all those in the world of basketball who were touched by his impact.” A cause of death was not immediately released. =============================== BASEBALL NEWS REDS PLACE SHORTSTOP ELLY DE LA CRUZ ON THE 10-DAY IL WITH A RIGHT HAMSTRING STRAIN CINCINNATI (AP) — Cincinnati Reds shortstop Elly De La Cruz was placed on the 10-day injured list Monday with a right hamstring strain. De La Cruz left Sunday’s 6-4 victory over the Atlanta Braves with right hamstring tightness after singling to right center in the fifth inning. He underwent an MRI on Monday morning. With the Reds leading 3-2 on Sunday, De La Cruz sent a ball into the gap against Braves starter Spencer Strider. The contact normally would have gone for a double, but De La Cruz grimaced as he reached first base and stopped. He walked off the field on his own after meeting briefly with training staff. De La Cruz has appeared in 276 consecutive games, the sixth-longest streak for a Reds player in the expansion era (since 1961). His streak began on July 30, 2024. He’s batting .280 with 12 home runs this season. The Reds also recalled infielder Edwin Arroyo from Triple-A Louisville, selected left-hander Brandon Leibrandt from Triple-A and designated for assignment right-hander Yunior Marte. The 22-year-old Arroyo is batting .323 with 11 homers and 34 RBIs with a .945 OPS in 53 games. ===== MLB ROUNDUP: MARINERS NIP METS IN 10TH INNING FOR 7TH STRAIGHT WIN Cole Young’s broken-bat bloop single to left field brought home the winning run with one out in the bottom of the 10th inning as the Seattle Mariners defeated the visiting New York Mets 3-2 on Monday.

The Brewers’ Christian Yelich and David Hamilton each had three hits and three runs. Jackson Chourio added two hits and three RBIs, and five players had two RBIs apiece for Milwaukee, which won for the sixth time in seven games. Matt Chapman hit a two-run homer to account for all of the scoring by the Giants, who have lost six of their past seven games. San Francisco managed just five hits.

Troy Johnston, Kyle Karros, Sterlin Thompson and McCarthy each had two hits and an RBI for the Rockies, who won despite committing four errors.

The 23-time Grand Slam singles champion has accepted a wild-card invitation to play doubles at the upcoming Queen’s Club grass-court tournament in London, the WTA Tour announced Monday. Williams also made a post on social media with the caption, “Guess everybody heard the news.” The post had a video with her phone ringing, during which she said, “I got to change my number.” The Queen’s Club tournament starts next Monday and the WTA said Williams will play “with a partner to be announced in due course.” A return on grass will raise speculation that Williams also plans to compete at Wimbledon, which starts June 28. She’s won seven singles titles at the All England Club. “Queen’s Club feels like the perfect place to begin this next chapter,” Williams said in a statement. “Grass has given me some of the most meaningful moments of my career and I’m excited to be back competing on one of the sport’s most iconic stages.” Williams has not competed since bidding farewell at the 2022 U.S. Open. At the time, Williams said she didn’t want to use the word “retiring” and instead declared that she was “evolving” away from tennis. “Serena brought the game to another level and it is incredible for the sport that she’s pushing the boundaries and coming back,” said Martina Navratilova, the previous oldest former No. 1 to launch a comeback, at 43 years, 10 months. Williams, who has also won 14 Grand Slam doubles titles, became eligible to compete in February after re-registering with tennis’ mandatory anti-doping program six months earlier — which is the first step toward a comeback. Four-time major champion Naomi Osaka, who beat Williams in the 2018 U.S. Open final for her first major title, was excited at the prospect. “It will bring people to watch tennis,” Osaka said Thursday at the French Open. “I’m going to be tuned into the first match, for sure. I think a lot of people are. Everyone knows Serena and Venus were my role models growing up, so it’s going to be cool to see her on the grounds again.” Williams recently posted a video on Instagram showing herself training on a hard court with her daughter: “Rumor has it…I got a new trainer,” Williams said in the post. Williams’ second daughter was born in 2023. Williams’ older sister, Venus, is still playing occasionally at 45. Gauff never got to play Williams “One of my biggest regrets was not being able to play her,” defending French Open champion Coco Gauff said in Paris. “It would be cool for this sport to have a legend back playing.” Eighteen-year-old American player Iva Jovic also sounded thrilled. “I have never seen Serena in real life,” Jovic said. “Obviously I grew up watching her. In my entire childhood she was dominating tennis, so it’s going to be incredible.” Added fellow American player Madison Keys: “Serena Williams playing tennis is only good for tennis. Let’s be real. We all want to watch Serena play tennis. “I mean, you literally get to watch history every single time she takes the court,” Keys added. “So why not watch more?” Davenport says Williams practiced with current players Former No. 1 Lindsay Davenport, speaking at Roland Garros, said Williams’ goal “has always been to be the best.” “Her mindset has always been to not settle for mediocrity. So I think we have to assume that she’s coming back because she feels she’s in a position where she can actually make an impact immediately,” Davenport said. “It’s naive to expect right off the bat she’s going to be winning tournaments. But I think she feels like she could work her way into it.” Davenport said she knows that some current women’s players went down to Florida to practice with Williams recently. “I don’t think anyone’s admitted to that, but I do know that some of them were,” Davenport said. “So I think she has kind of a handle on where the level is. But I don’t know if she’s been playing a two-hour singles match, right? We’ll have to see how she can handle that physically.” McEnroe made a doubles comeback at 47 John McEnroe said Williams isn’t “coming back not to win” and suggested Williams could play Wimbledon. “She’s not getting any younger but she’s Serena Williams so I bet you she would tell me about wanting to win the whole damn thing,” McEnroe said in Paris. McEnroe was 47 when he returned after 12 years of retirement and won a tour-level doubles tournament with partner Jonas Bjorkman. “Physically I still had it for doubles, so she definitely could still have it for doubles, there’s no question about that. She could win anything (in doubles),” McEnroe said. “The singles is more difficult, so we’ll have to wait and see what she decides to do, maybe she’s waiting to the (U.S.) Open. I’m not really sure what the plan is. She hasn’t called me to tell me the plan.” Women returned to Queen’s after more than 50 years A women’s tournament rejoined the men’s competition at Queen’s last year after an absence of more than 50 years, meaning Williams will be making her debut at the historic grass-court tournament. “Women’s tennis made a historic return to the Queen’s Club last year, and now we have an icon of the game stepping back on to court at this prestigious venue,” Queen’s tournament director Laura Robson said. “It’s very exciting for the tournament and the fans.” =============================== AUTO RACING INDIANAPOLIS 500 VETERAN RICK TREADWAY DIES AT 56 (INDYCAR RELEASE) Rick Treadway, who started the 2002 Indianapolis 500, died May 30 in a motorcycle accident. He was 56.

He made his INDYCAR SERIES debut in 2001 at Kentucky Speedway and his final start in 2002 at the season finale at Texas Motor Speedway. His best finish was fifth at the 2001 season finale at Texas. Before joining the INDYCAR SERIES, Treadway competed in Formula 2000 junior formula racing and in various short-track open-wheel series, including the USAC Silver Crown and National Midget Series. He also raced in SCCA competition. Treadway, a graduate of Indiana State University, worked in business development and as a commercial pilot for his charter air service. He also served as an Federal Aviation Administration-certified flight instructor. ================================ GOLF NEWS PRESTON STOUT OF OKLAHOMA STATE WINS NCAA GOLF TITLE, GETS SPOTS IN U.S. OPEN AND MASTERS CARLSBAD, Calif. (AP) — Preston Stout of Oklahoma State won the NCAA individual title on Monday, shooting a final-round 69 at La Costa for a one-shot victory over Alabama’s William Jennings. The third-ranked amateur in the world, Stout will receive exemptions into this year’s U.S. Open and next year’s Masters, provided he remains an amateur. The junior had a four-day total of 14-under 274. Stout became the 10th Oklahoma State player to win an NCAA title — the most of any school — and the first since Matthew Wolff in 2019. “That’s why I’m here. That’s why I’m able to win tournaments like this,” Stout said. “We have the best team in the world, the best coaching staff in the country.” The Cowboys were one of eight teams to advance to match play as they seek their second consecutive team title. Auburn earned the top seed, followed, respectively, by Texas, Vanderbilt, Florida, OSU and Arizona. UCLA secured the seventh seed and Stanford the eighth by beating Tennessee and North Carolina in a four-team playoff. Auburn’s Jackson Koivun, the world’s top-ranked amateur, was never a factor after shooting an even-par 72 in the third round to fall five shots off the pace. He closed with a 71 and finished in a tie for 11th. “Koivun’s been a really good motivator this year. Just trying to keep up with him,” Stout said. Stout was 5 under through 11 holes and had a five-shot lead at one point, but he dropped shots on Nos. 12, 14 and 17 to fall into a tie with Jennings. Stout then closed with a birdie on the par-5 18th that held up for his fifth victory this season. “He was ready for the moment,” Oklahoma State coach Alan Bratton said. “He’s built for that. I’ve seen him do it a number of times.” Stout shot 65 on Sunday to take a one-shot lead over Jennings through three rounds. Jennings, who started on the back nine, made double bogey on his fourth hole of the day but made six birdies in a 10-hole stretch, pulling even with Stout when he birdied the 203-yard, par-3 eighth hole. With Stout staying loose for a potential playoff, Jennings missed the green on the par-4 ninth, his chip was too strong and he missed the comebacker. “I fought pretty hard,” Jennings said. “It stinks to come up short like that, but there’s a lot of positives to take from this week.” ===== TORREY PINES STAYS ON PGA TOUR SCHEDULE AS THE SENTRY The PGA Tour, which has played an annual event at Torrey Pines Golf Course since 1968, will not miss a beat in 2027 with the announcement Monday of the newly renamed tournament, “The Sentry.” The announcement was made jointly with Sentry Insurance and the Century Club of San Diego, which organizes the tournament. The event is scheduled for Jan. 27-30 with a Saturday finish to avoid competing with the NFL conference championship games. Former title sponsor Farmers Insurance concluded its commitment in January when Englishman Justin Rose won for the second time at Torrey Pines with a tournament-record 23-under 265. The Sentry at Kapalua was not held this year because of a water crisis in Hawaii, and neither Hawaii tour stops are on the schedule going forward. The Sentry changed venues as the replacement for what had been the Farmers Insurance Open since 2010. “We’re honored to continue investing in the game and creating experiences that bring together players, fans, partners and communities,” Sentry CEO Pete McPartland said in a news release. “We look forward to working closely with the San Diego community to shine a spotlight on everything that makes the region so special and continue our longstanding dedication of strengthening the communities we’re a part of.” The tournament was first called the San Diego Open at its 1952 debut and moved to Torrey Pines in 1968. Previous titles included the Convair San Diego Open, the Wickes-Andy Williams San Diego Open, the Isuzu-Andy Williams San Diego Open and the Shearson Lehman Brothers Open, as well as the Buick Invitational from 1992-2009. “For 75 years the PGA Tour has hosted elite competition in San Diego, including the last 60 at revered Torrey Pines, and we are proud to build upon that legacy and longtime philanthropic impact with our partners at Sentry Insurance,” PGA Tour CEO Brian Rolapp said in the news release. “We are pleased to have the support of Sentry and the Century Club of San Diego to further grow what fans and players have long recognized as one of our game’s most celebrated venues and events.” =================================== INDIANA SPORTS NEWS AND HEADLINES INDIANAPOLIS COLTS The Indianapolis Colts today signed undrafted free agent center Josh Kreutz, undrafted free agent cornerback Jai’Onte’ McMillan and free agent quarterback Easton Stick.

The top 15 and ties earned a spot on the NCAA All-Championship team and guaranteed Honorable Mention All-America status by the Golf Coaches Association of America (GCAA). Two golfers finished tied for 14th at 6-under par, while Easterbrook was one shot back at 5-under par 283 (72-73-68-70). Needing a birdie on one of his final three holes, Easterbrook had looks at birdie on all three holes. His approach shot on his 18th hole flew over the green, and his chip from just over the green slid past by about an inch on the right side. Easterbrook played brilliantly all week, going the last 34 holes of the NCAA Championships without a bogey while playing the same span in 7-under par. His 283 is the lowest 72-hole score at the NCAA Championships since Shiv Kapur finished tied for 10th in the 2004 NCAA Championships with a 2-over par 282. His score in relation to par (5-under par) is the second-best 72-hole score in Purdue history in relation to par (Rick Dalpos; 6-under at the 1981 Big Ten Championships). The round concludes a record-breaking season for the junior from Tomworth, England. Easterbrook set school records for most rounds of even-par or better (26), most rounds of 75 or lower (36) and most birdies made in a season (147). He finished the year with a 70.72 stroke average, good for second in school history, and finished the year a cumulative 26-under par. As a team, Purdue concluded the season in Sunday’s third round at the NCAA Championships with a 23rd-place finish, the highest NCAA Championships finish since 2004. Purdue set the school record for stroke average at 284.79, posting a cumulative score of 26-under par. Purdue will return five of six regulars for next season, while welcoming in a highly-regarded recruiting class. ============================= PURDUE FOOTBALL WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – For the second consecutive season, Boilermaker legend Ryan Kerrigan is on the ballot for induction into the College Football Hall of Fame. Kicking off the month of June, the National Football Foundation (NFF) announced the full list of names on the 2027 ballot under consideration for induction. Prior to his 11-year NFL career, Kerrigan became one of the best student-athletes in Purdue Football history. He played in 12 games as a freshman before working his way into a starting role for his final three years in West Lafayette to earn a spot in the Den of Defensive Ends. As a Boilermaker, Kerrigan tied the all-time FBS record for forced fumbles (14), which also set a new mark in the Big Ten Conference. He still sits second in the Purdue record book with 33.5 sacks, while ranking fifth in tackles-for-loss (57.0). As a senior in 2010, Kerrigan was a unanimous First Team All-American, the seventh unanimous All-American in program history and Purdue’s first since 1980. The Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year led the country in TFLs (26.0), ranked second in forced fumbles (5) and tied for third in sacks (12.5), while leading the conference in all three categories. He was the runner-up for the Ted Hendricks Award (nation’s outstanding defensive end) as well as a semifinalist for three other awards (Chuck Bednarik Award, Rotary Lombardi Award, Ronnie Lott IMPACT Trophy). His 70 total tackles were the most by a defensive lineman in the Big Ten during the regular season. During Kerrigan’s junior campaign, he led the nation and tied a school record with seven forced fumbles, which also ranked second all-time in Big Ten history. Kerrigan led the conference and was third nationally in sacks (13.0), adding 18.5 TFLs (fourth in Big Ten) on his way to being named the 2009 Big Ten Defensive Lineman of the Year for the first time. Following 18 tackles over 12 games as a freshman, Kerrigan became a force in the Boilermaker defense as a sophomore. Leading the team in both categories, he cracked the Big Ten’s Top 10 in sacks (7.0) and TFLs (11.5), ranking seventh and 10th, respectively. Kerrigan was named All-Big Ten Honorable Mention at the conclusion of the 2008 season. Off the field, Kerrigan was a three-time Academic All-Big Ten honoree and earned Second Team Academic All-American accolades in 2009. Kerrigan was selected in the first round of the 2011 NFL Draft (16th pick) and went on to make four Pro Bowls for Washington. He became the franchise leader in sacks (95.5) and forced fumbles (26) over 10 seasons before spending his final year in the league with Philadelphia. Over 172 games, Kerrigan tallied 457 tackles, 120 TFLs and 95.5 sacks. Kerrigan is no stranger to halls of fame. In 2018, he was inducted into Leroy Keyes Purdue Athletics Hall of Fame. Five years later, the Indiana Football Coaches Association enshrined him into the Indiana Football Hall of Fame. The announcement of the 2027 NFF College Football Hall of Fame Class will be made in early 2027, with specific details to be announced in the future. ============================== NOTRE DAME MEN’S GOLF SOUTH BEND, Ind. — A trio from the Notre Dame men’s golf team have been named to the 2026 NCAA Division I PING All-Region Team, as announced by the Golf Coaches Association of America over the weekend. A season that saw Jacob Modleski, Calen Sanderson, and Nate Stevens all earn individual titles in tournament play, the men’s team finished off the year at the NCAA Corvallis Regional where they placed among the top-10 as a team. All three were named to the Midwest team by the GCAA. Modleski opened his junior year as the first individual to represent the University at the Walker Cup when he was selected to Team USA in late August. From there, he met the team at their first tournament of the fall and went on to record eight top-10 individual finishes with the team. His season-low score of 203(-13) at the Schenkel Invitational gave him a tie for first place and his lone tournament win of the year. A record-setting season for Sanderson, the senior concluded his time with the Gold and Blue with a runners-up finish in his first tournament of the year followed by an individual title at the annual Canadian Collegiate Invitational as he helped his team to the team title as well. In Canada, Sanderson set a program record for both single-round low score of eight-under (64) en route to shattering the program record for a three-round total as he finished the 54-hole tournament at 197(-19). His 197 mark was the first sub-200 stroke count for a three-round tournament in program history. Competing in all 12 tournaments for the Irish in 2025-26, he helped lead his team to seven top-five finishes as a group and boasted them to a top-10 finish in all 12 tournaments played. Stevens closes out his collegiate career having played 11 of the team’s 12 tournaments in 2025-26. The senior registered three top-10 individual finishes, including first place at The Williams Cup with a score of 209(-7). Stevens’ season low score came at the Ford Collegiate Invitational where he posted a three-round mark of 202(-8) before finishing sixth overall. ================================ BALL STATE MEN’S VOLLEYBALL MUNCIE, Ind. – The Ball State men’s volleyball program makes another addition to its 2027 roster as it welcomes All-American Daniel Fabikovic, as announced by head coach Mike Iandolo. A native of Breclav, Czech Republic, Fabikovic comes to Muncie after spending the last three seasons at Midwestern Intercollegiate Volleyball Association member Loyola Chicago. A second team American Volleyball Coaches Association All-American in 2024 and 2025, Fabikovic was named a 2026 Honorable Mention All-American after earning his third consecutive first team All-MIVA nod. He led the Ramblers’ offense this past season with 279 kills (2.82 per set) while ranking second on the unit in digs with 136 (1.37 per set) and blocks with 66 (0.67 per set). Fabikovic’s production aided Loyola to a finals appearance in this season’s MIVA Tournament Final as well as a trip to the 2026 NCAA Regionals. ================================= SOUTHERN INDIANA MEN’S BASKETBALL EVANSVILLE, Ind.—University of Southern Indiana Men’s Basketball Coach Stan Gouard announced the addition of 6-foot-5 sophomore guard/forward Malachi Knight to the Screaming Eagles’ roster for the 2026-27 season.

Radbourn, who will finish 488 of the 502 games he started, will end his 11-year career this season with 309 victories. 1894 – Ed Stein pitches a seven-inning no-hitter, as the Brooklyn Grooms beat the Chicago Colts, 1 – 0. The previous day, Brooklyn held Chicago to one hit in a 5 – 0 shutout. 1905 – The New York Giants score five runs in the 13th inning to beat the host Boston Beaneaters, 8 – 3, and give pitcher Red Ames his ninth win of the season. 1915 – At the Polo Grounds, Babe Ruth and the well-traveled Boston Red Sox beat the New York Yankees, 7 – 1. It is the last stop on a 29-day road trip for the Red Sox. Ruth allows five hits and hits his second career home run, a three-run shot off Jack Warhop in the 2nd inning. After his homer, Ruth receives two intentional walks. He ends up kicking the bench and breaking his toe, sidelining him for two weeks. 1916 – The Oakland Oaks release Jimmy Claxton, apparently upon discovering that he is an African-American player. Claxton was the first black player in Organized Baseball in the 20th Century. 1925 – 21-year-old Lou Gehrig starts a game for the New York Yankees when regular first baseman Wally Pipp is hit in the head during batting practice and complains of a headache – in fact a concussion. Gehrig, who had appeared as a pinch-hitter in the previous day’s game, collects three hits in five at-bats, helping the Yankees to an 8 – 5 victory over the Washington Senators. Gehrig will go on to play in a major league record 2,130 consecutive games, a record since broken by Cal Ripken with a streak of 2,632. 1928: St. Mary’s College football star Larry Bettencourt starts at third base for the St. Louis Browns. A future member of the College Football Hall of Fame, Bettencourt is an All-American center who will later play for the Green Bay Packers. The $6,000 bonus he received is a record for a major league rookie just out of school. Les Bell of the Boston Braves collects 15 total bases with three home runs and a triple, but Boston loses to the Cincinnati Reds, 20 – 12. 1932 – In minor league action, Buzz Arlett hits four consecutive home runs, leading the the Baltimore Orioles to a 14 – 13 victory over the Reading Keystones. 1935: Babe Ruth of the Boston Braves announces his retirement from baseball. Struggling with a .181 batting average at the time, he retires with 714 home runs, by far the most in major league history. Ruth will gain election to the Hall of Fame as part of its inaugural class next year. George Pipgras is released by the Boston Red Sox. He will later become an American League umpire. 1937 – National League President Ford Frick suspends Dizzy Dean for refusing to retract statements made after a balk call in a game on May 19th, which led to an on-field brawl. Dean forces a meeting with the press at which he denies the statements, and his suspension will be lifted a few days later. 1941 – Lou Gehrig dies of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis at the age of 37 in New York. From that time on, the illness will be known in North America primarily as “Lou Gehrig’s Disease”. Gehrig saw his major league record of 2,130 consecutive games played end because of the disease. It was on this day exactly 16 years ago that he broke into the Yankees’ starting line-up. 1942 – Ted Williams of the Boston Red Sox enlists as a Naval Aviator. Williams will finish the season with his team, as will many other players who enlisted or await the draft, which moves slowly despite the early discouragements of the war. Other American League regulars of 1941 enlisted in the military service include Johnny Berardino, Sam Chapman, Bob Feller, Joe Grace, Buddy Lewis, Pat Mullin, Johnny Rigney, Johnny Sturm and Cecil Travis. 1943 – The Boston Red Sox and the St. Louis Browns play four consecutive extra-inning games, working 45 innings in games between May 31st and today. Both leagues will set season records for extra-inning activity, 91 in the American League, 80 in the National League. 1949 – At Shibe Park, the Philadelphia Phillies hit five home runs during the same inning (the 8th) in a 12 – 3 victory over Cincinnati, tying the major league mark set by the 1939 New York Giants. Andy Seminick hits two home runs in the inning, while Del Ennis, Willie Jones and pitcher Schoolboy Rowe have one each. Jones adds a triple as Granny Hamner’s double jumps the extra bases total to 18, still a record. Seminick collects three home runs overall. 1950: George Kell of the Detroit Tigers hits for the cycle in the 16 – 5 second-game sweep of a doubleheader with the Philadelphia Athletics. The Tigers win the opener, 8 – 2, behind the pitching of Ted Gray and home runs by Vic Wertz and Hoot Evers. Wertz has five runs batted in in the opener, and two more in the second game. The St. Louis Browns win both games of a doubleheader against the Washington Senators, 10 – 5 and 9 – 3. Hank Arft goes 5 for 5 in the opener, while Harry Dorish is the winning pitcher in the second game. Dorish also steals home on the front end of a double steal with Ray Coleman, to become the last American League pitcher in the 20th century to steal home. 1957 – Chicago Cubs pitcher Moe Drabowsky ties a National League record by hitting four Cincinnati batters in the Cubs’ 6 – 4 loss to the Redlegs. This will not be done again in the NL until this day in 1996. 1958: Whitey Ford of the New York Yankees strikes out six batters in a row to tie an American League record as he shuts out the Chicago White Sox, 3 – 0. White Sox pitcher Jim Wilson allows just six hits, but three of them are home runs by Hank Bauer (two) and Mickey Mantle (one). On a botched hit-and-run attempt, Luis Aparicio is thrown out at second base, ending his streak of 26 consecutive stolen bases. Brooks Robinson of the Baltimore Orioles hits into a triple play against the Washington Senators. Robinson will hit into three more triple plays during his career, establishing a new major league record. 1959 – A swarm of gnats delays the game between the Baltimore Orioles and Chicago White Sox at Comiskey Park. After a half-hour interruption, the Chicago grounds crew disposes of the gnats by using a smoke bomb attached to a postgame fireworks display. The Orioles eventually defeat the White Sox, 3 – 2. 1962 – Roberto Clemente’s home run almost reaches Forbes Field’s right-field roof, providing Pittsburgh with an early three-run lead over Houston which starter Vern Law will not relinquish. Clemente’s shot misses by a foot or so being the first one by a right-handed batter to hit the right field roof, landing against its facing. 1986 – Rod Carew announces his retirement from baseball at the age of 40. Carew leaves the game with a .328 career batting average compiled over 19 major league seasons. A former Minnesota Twins and California Angels infielder, Carew will gain election to the Hall of Fame in 1991 and the American League batting title will be renamed the “Rod Carew Award” in his honor. 1987 – Tony McDonald sets a Mexican League record with five assists from left field in one game. 1989 – In Cincinnati, Eric Davis hits for the cycle in a 6-2 Reds win over the Padres. He becomes the fourth modern era Red with that accomplishment, and the first since Frank Robinson thirty years before. 1990 – Randy Johnson pitches the first no-hitter in Seattle Mariners history, a 2 – 0 win over the Detroit Tigers at the Kingdome. Johnson strikes out eight and walks six. 1995: The Boston Red Sox defeat the Seattle Mariners, 6 – 5, as John Valentin has one of the best hitting days ever by a shortstop. Valentin goes 5 for 5, including three home runs and four runs scored. In doing so, he becomes the first SS ever to have 15 total bases in a single game. Japanese rookie pitcher Hideo Nomo records his first major league win with the Dodgers, limiting the Mets to one run on two hits in 8+ innings of work. 1996 – Houston Astros pitcher Darryl Kile ties a major league record by hitting four St. Louis Cardinals batters. Kyle also becomes the first National League pitcher to do it since Moe Drabowsky accomplished the feat pitching for the Cubs on this day 39 years ago. 1999 – In the first-year player draft, the Tampa Bay Devil Rays select North Carolina prep star Josh Hamilton as the top pick. It is the first time since 1993, when Alex Rodriguez was selected, that a high school player has been chosen first overall. 2000: With the Detroit Tigers visiting Wrigley Field for the first time since the 1945 World Series, Chicago Cubs reliever Rick Aguilera pitches a perfect 9th inning for his 300th career save in the 2 – 0 Chicago victory. Fred McGriff of the Tampa Bay Devil Rays becomes the 31st major league player to reach 400 career home runs, when he hits a two-run blast off Glendon Rusch, in a 5 – 3 loss to the New York Mets at Shea Stadium. The Montreal Expos announce they will wear Maurice Richard’s uniform number 9 on their jersey sleeves for the rest of the season to honor the Montreal Canadiens great who died last week. It is believed to be the first time a major league team has honored an athlete from another sport in this way. 2001 – At Miller Park, the red-hot Chicago Cubs extend their winning streak to 12 games, beating the Milwaukee Brewers, 10 – 4. Matt Stairs hits a three-run home run, while Sammy Sosa and Rondell White add two-run homers, all off Paul Rigdon. Kevin Tapani is the winning pitcher. It is the longest winning streak for the Cubs since they won 15 games in 1936. The streak will end tomorrow. 2005 – The New York Yankees are swept by the team with the worst record in the majors (16-37), falling 5 – 2 to the Kansas City Royals for their first five-game losing streak in more than two years. Kansas City pitchers allow just six runs in the series. It is the third time in their storied history the Yankees have been swept in three games by the team with the worst record in the major leagues. The other times were in 2000, by the Detroit Tigers, and 1937 by the Philadelphia Athletics. The Royals had gone 78 series without sweeping anyone, the longest drought in the majors since the Phillies went 79 series without a sweep in 1996 and 1997. 2009: The Mariners beat the Orioles, 8 – 2. Ichiro Suzuki sets a new franchise record by hitting safely in his 26th consecutive game. Dan Uggla, playing in his 502nd game, hits his 100th home run, becoming the fastest second baseman to that level. He helps the Marlins beat the Brewers, 9 – 3. 2010: Ken Griffey Jr. announces his retirement after 22 seasons in the major leagues. Hitting only .184 in part-time duty for the Mariners, he leaves with 630 career home runs and six seasons of 40 or more homers. Most of his career was spent with Seattle and the Cincinnati Reds and he will gain election to the Hall of Fame, by near unanimous vote, in 2016. Armando Galarraga throws a one-hitter in a 3 – 0 win over Cleveland but in the eyes of most observers, he has pitched a perfect game: the only baserunner he gives up comes with two outs in the 9th inning, when Jason Donald is called safe on an infield hit by umpire Jim Joyce. However, replays show that the throw from 1B Miguel Cabrera to Galarraga beat Donald to the bag. The Tigers starter thus comes agonizingly close to pitching the third major league perfect game in only a month. In San Diego, Adrian Gonzalez hits a walk-off grand slam in the 11th inning to lead the Padres to a 5 – 1 win over the Mets. San Diego’s David Eckstein had tied the game at 1 with a single with two outs in the bottom of the 9th against Mets closer Francisco Rodriguez, after eight scoreless innings by Johan Santana. It’s not the only late-game grand slam hit today: in Toronto, Carl Crawford of the Rays also hits one, capping a six-run 9th inning, to beat the Blue Jays, 7 – 3, and give David Price his American League-leading eighth win of the year. Chris Carpenter improves to 75-25 with the St. Louis Cardinals with a 4 – 1 win over the Reds. Only two other pitchers since 1900 had won 75% or more of their first 100 decisions with a team – Pedro Martinez of the Boston Red Sox (78-22) and Cy Young (75-25), also with Boston. 2011: The Pirates take an early 7 – 0 lead against Mike Pelfrey and the Mets, but New York rallies for nine straight runs. The Mets score three on Carlos Beltran’s three-run blast in the 3rd, add a four-run inning in the 6th to even the score against Paul Maholm, then win it in the 8th with two more runs. Mets manager Terry Collins does some fancy maneuverings in the 8th, sending pitcher Chris Capuano to pinch-hit with pinch-runner Willie Harris on first base, hoping for a sacrifice bunt; when losing P Jose Veras balks the runner over, Collins calls Capuano back, and sends in Josh Thole to finish the at-bat. In the end, four walks and a wild pitch in the inning sink the Bucs, who lose, 9 – 8, in what is the Mets’ biggest comeback in 11 years. Aubrey Huff hits three homers and drives in six runs, leading the Giants to a 12 – 7 win over the Cardinals. His performance makes a winner of Jonathan Sanchez, despite his walking six batters against only one K in 5 1/3 innings. Huff’s first two long balls come against two pitchers making their major league debut, loser Lance Lynn and reliever Maikel Cleto. Colby Rasmus hits a grand slam in a losing cause. 2012: Two nine-game streaks end today. The Mariners end the White Sox’s string of victories with a 10 – 8 win in 12 innings. Ichiro Suzuki hits a pair of solo homers in the win, as eight homers are hit on the day. The Athletics also snap a streak, having lost nine straight before beating the Royals, 9 – 3. Brandon McCarthy is the winner against Luke Hochevar. West Chester University of Pennsylvania wins the Division II College World Series, their first time winning a national baseball title. Joe Gunkel tosses a four-hit shutout against Delta State University while his team scores five of their nine runs in the 1st inning in a romp. 2013 – Garrett Jones hits only the second home run to splash down straight into the Allegheny River beyond the right field fence at PNC Park, a two-run blast off Jonathan Broxton that allows the Pirates to tie the score at 4 – 4 in the 8th inning against the Reds. Travis Snider then ends the game with a run-scoring pinch single in the 11th for a 5 – 4 Bucs win. Pirates starter Jeanmar Gomez has to leave with tightness in his pitching arm after allowing all four Reds runs in the 1st, but five relievers combine to keep Cincinnati from scoring again through the following ten innings, with Justin Wilson eventually getting credit for the win. 2014 – In an unprecedented move, the Astros give out a five-year extension with three club options to Jonathan Singleton, who has yet to play his first major league game. Singleton has had problems with substance abuse in the past, but seems to be over them, and the pact guarantees him a minimum of $10 million even if he turns out to be a complete bust in the big leagues. The Astros will soon get to find out if they have made a smart investment, as, contract issues now out of the way, they call up Singleton and install him as their starting first baseman. 2015: In a memorable major league debut, Rangers 3B Joey Gallo hits a two-run homer in his second at-bat on the way to collecting three hits and four RBIs in leading Texas to a 15 – 2 beating of the White Sox. Chris Archer ties a Rays team record with 15 strikeouts in eight innings in defeating the Angels, 6 – 1. For the first time, a team from Belarus makes the European Cup. The Paris Université Club beats Belarus’ Brest Zubrs in the first day of action at the 2015 European Cup. Alex Lukashevich (the first US minor leaguer from Belarus) is the losing pitcher, while Dan Camou has three runs and three RBI, Christophe Goniot scores three and James Murrey fans ten in a two-hitter in a 14 – 1 loss for the Belarusian entry. 2016 – Trailing the Padres 12 – 2 after five innings, the Mariners suddenly wake up and score 14 runs in two innings to escape with a 16 – 13 win, the biggest comeback in team history. In the 6th, Kyle Seager hits a two-run, bases loaded single, followed by a three-run pinch-hit homer by Dae-Ho Lee, then in the 7th the M’s score nine times to take the lead for good. For the Padres, the roller-coaster ride continues, as in consecutive games they have given up double-figure runs, scored double-figure runs, and then done both in the same game. 2017 – Clayton Kershaw of the Dodgers records his 2,000th career strikeout, the victim being Jonathan Villar, one of 14 K’s on the night for Kershaw. He is the third fastest pitcher to the mark, needing 1,837 2/3 innings, trailing only Pedro Martinez and Randy Johnson. Max Scherzer is about to catch him, however, as he only needs 19 Ks to reach the mark while having pitched 100 fewer innings than Clayton. The Dodgers win the game, 2 – 1, in 12 innings, while recording a team-record 26 strikeouts and both teams combine for a National League record 42 whiffs. Cody Bellinger homers in the top of the 12th for Los Angeles, while winner Kenley Jansen has now struck out 36 batters without issuing a single walk this year, a major league record. 2018 – Jacob deGrom matches a career high set just two weeks earlier by racking up 13 strikeouts in seven innings in a start against the Cubs, but the NL ERA leader has to settle for another no-decision as the game is decided in 14 innings. Seven relievers add another 11 strikeouts to give the Mets 24, two shy of the all-time mark for an extra-inning game, but it’s the Cubs who break through with six runs in the top of the 14th, highlighted by Albert Almora’s two-run double off Buddy Baumann, to win, 7 – 1. Luke Farrell pitches five scoreless innings in relief to pick up the win. 2021 – The Dominican national team becomes the fourth and final team in the Super Round of the Americas Olympic Qualifier, wiping out Nicaragua, 13 – 3. RF Julio Rodríguez, CF Luis Liberato and SS Jeison Guzmán each drive in three, Rodríguez hits two of their five homers and Rodríguez and Guzmán each have three hits. Darío Álvarez gets the win. 2025: The visiting Angels do something unprecedented in the 113-year history of Fenway Park as they homer three times in the 1st inning. Zach Neto leads off the game with a long ball, Mike Trout hits a three-run shot later in the inning, and Jo Adell completes the six-run outburst with another solo shot. All the hits come off Boston starter Richard Fitts, and L.A. holds on for a 7 – 6 win as Adell adds another solo homer later in the game.
