Mets say Jorge Lopez’s post-ejection glove toss ‘not acceptable’

The New York Mets held a players-only team meeting Wednesday night after getting swept by the Los Angeles Dodgers with a 10-3 loss that included another late-inning bullpen implosion and reliever Jorge Lopez throwing his glove into his stands after being ejected. The score was tied at 3-3 heading into the eighth inning before the Dodgers scored six times against three relievers. One was Lopez, who took issue with third-base umpire Ramon De Jesus’ ruling on a check swing from Shohei Ohtani. Lopez wound up surrendering a two-run home run to Ohtani. He kept arguing with De Jesus while falling behind 3-1 to Freddie Freeman before the umpire ejected […]

Nick Diaz returns, Sandhagen vs. Nurmagomedov at UFC Abu Dhabi

Nick Diaz, one of the most popular fighters in mixed martial arts history, will return to the UFC in August.

David Goffin slams ‘total disrespect’ from French Open fans

David Goffin accused partisan fans at the French Open of “total disrespect” and stated he was spat at by a spectator during his marathon first-round victory over local favorite Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard. Fans can often turn the usually quiet Roland Garros courts into a wild arena when a French player needs backing, with the resulting atmosphere unmatched at the other three majors. Goffin, of Belgium, was subjected to the experience Tuesday afternoon. On a raucous Court 14, Goffin kept his cool to defeat wild card Perricard 4-6, 6-4, 6-3, 6-7 (4), 6-3 before the former world No. 7 held his hand to […]

Luka Doncic, Kyrie Irving take blame for Mavs’ loss to Wolves

Luka Doncic blamed himself for the Dallas Mavericks having to board a flight to Minneapolis instead of beginning their break before the NBA Finals. “I think that game is on me,” Doncic stated after the Mavs failed to finish the Western Conference semifinals with a sweep, suffering a 105-100 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves in Tuesday’s Game 4. “I just didn’t give enough energy.” Doncic recorded his sixth triple-double of these playoffs with 28 points, 15 rebounds and 10 assists. However, he had a poor shooting performance (7-of-21 from the floor) and matched Mavs forward P.J. Washington for the worst plus-minus of the night (minus-13). Looking for the best online […]

David Stearns, Mets have ‘plenty of time’ to weigh trades

With his team sinking in the standings, New York Mets president of baseball operations David Stearns stated Tuesday that he will continue to practice patience before deciding whether to keep the roster intact for a postseason push or trade veterans at the July 30 deadline. “Generally, the trade deadline becomes an inflection point in the season,” Stearns said, “and we’ve got plenty of time before that.” The Mets entered Tuesday’s doubleheader versus the Los Angeles Dodgers with a 22-30 record, 14.5 games behind the first-place Philadelphia Phillies in the National League East and 4.5 games from the third NL wild-card spot.

Max Verstappen: Red Bull’s weaknesses ‘found out’ in Monaco

Max Verstappen stated the Monaco street circuit exposed the weaknesses of his Red Bull car after his run of eight consecutive pole positions came to an end on Saturday with a sixth-place grid slot for Sunday’s grand prix. Verstappen struggled for performance throughout Monaco’s three practice sessions, blaming the lost lap time on his Red Bull’s unwillingness to ride bumps and kerbs around the street circuit. In qualifying, he aborted his final run after a brush with the wall at Turn One and concluded 0.297 seconds off the pole position time of Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc. “We tried a lot of things […]
