Struggling Pirates closer David Bednar booed at home

David Bednar’s first three seasons in Pittsburgh largely have been charmed ones as the hometown kid developed into a two-time All-Star closer for a team convinced it’s on the rise. And while the Pirates might be on their way to contention, Bednar is faltering. The right-hander blew his third save in four opportunities on Tuesday when Detroit rallied for a 5-3 victory. The most jarring moment wasn’t the walk or the two batters he hit that fueled the Tigers’ comeback, but the sound of Bednar being booed at home by a crowd that has emphatically embraced him from the moment he arrived from […]

Novak Djokovic eases into third round at Monte Carlo Masters

Novak Djokovic made light work of his return to clay and did not face a break point when defeating Roman Safiullin 6-1, 6-2 to reach the third round of the Monte Carlo Masters on Tuesday. Serving for the match, Djokovic won on his second match point when Safiullin’s return sank into the net. Overall, Djokovic could perhaps have been a little more clinical, since he forced 19 break points and converted just five of them. It was the top-ranked Djokovic’s first clay-court tournament since winning the French Open last year to clinch a men’s-record 23rd major title. The Serbian player added the […]

Bucks’ Giannis Antetokounmpo helped off court with calf injury

Two-time MVP Giannis Antetokounmpo exited the Milwaukee Bucks’ 104-91 victory over the Boston Celtics in the third quarter Tuesday night due to an injury to his left calf. Antetokounmpo was heading up the court following a made 3-pointer from Celtics guard Derrick White when the Bucks star crumbed to floor without contact while grabbing at his left leg. He stayed on the floor as the Bucks called a timeout, and his teammates helped carry him off the court and toward the locker room. Antetokounmpo was officially ruled out of the game in the fourth quarter with what the team called a left soleus strain. The soleus is a […]

William Byron leads Hendrick Motorsports to 1-2-3 finish at Martinsville

William Byron stated he had nightmares coming to Martinsville Speedway this weekend, remembering his last visit when he struggled to a 13th-place finish. He not only overcame those fears, he put a cherry on top of the weekend when Hendrick Motorsports celebrated the anniversary of its first victory 40 years ago by picking up No. 305. “It was one of the worst experiences as a team, but one of the best experiences to realize the resilience that our team has. And I think that that showed today,” Byron said of last October’s penultimate race of the season. This Sunday was […]

Ferrari’s gains see it emerge as Red Bull’s nearest rival

Although still 20 seconds shy of Max Verstappen’s Red Bull at the chequered flag, Ferrari’s performance at the Japanese Grand Prix showed just how much progress the team has made with its winter of car development. Just six months ago, the Italian team concluded the same race 40 seconds adrift of race winner Verstappen, ranking fourth and sixth in the final classification compared to Sunday’s third and fourth. Defeating Red Bull in a consecutive fight (i.e., without the help of a Verstappen retirement, as happened in Australia this year) still seems like a stretch, but on the right circuit in the right circumstances, […]

Real Madrid want Santiago Bernabeu roof shut against Man City

Real Madrid have asked UEFA for approval to play Manchester City under a closed roof at the Santiago Bernabeu in an effort to boost the atmosphere for Tuesday’s Champions League quarterfinal first-leg tie versus the Premier League side, sources have told ESPN. City, who won their first Champions League title last season, are due to face Madrid for the third-successive season in the competition. Pep Guardiola’s team drew 1-1 at the Bernabeu in last season’s semifinal first-leg and lost 3-1 in Madrid in the semifinal second-leg 12 months earlier. But after losing 5-1 on aggregate in last season’s semifinal, Madrid are now attempting to take […]

Lottie Woad clutches out Augusta National Women’s Amateur

Bob Shoemaker stood under a tree near the Augusta National Golf Club clubhouse on Saturday shortly after his daughter, Bailey, made a clutch 5-foot par putt on the 18th hole to maintain a 1-stroke lead in the Augusta National Women’s Amateur. Shoemaker put a plastic Snoopy golf club in Bailey’s hands when she was 1½ years old, and now the USC freshman was on the verge of possibly winning the premier event in women’s amateur golf. After Shoemaker carded a bogey-free 6-under 66, the lowest final round in the five-year history of the ANWA, there was only one player left […]

‘Confident’ Lakers finally see rise in standings after win

The Lakers are playing their best basketball in months as the NBA schedule enters the final week of the regular season. And after Saturday’s 116-97 victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers, they finally have something to show for it. The victory, which was L.A.’s ninth in its past 10 games, moved the Lakers up to No. 8 in the Western Conference standings — the best position they’ve been since Dec. 29th when they were 17-15. Now 45-33 with four games left, L.A. does not sound like a team barely eking its way into the playoff picture. “We’re very confident in our ballclub,” Anthony Davis said after […]

Hamilton says Vettel would be an ‘amazing option’ for Mercedes

Lewis Hamilton considers old rival Sebastian Vettel would be “an amazing option” to replace him at Mercedes in 2025. Hamilton’s move to Ferrari for next season has blown the driver market wide open and Vettel, who retired at the end of 2022 with 53 race wins and four world titles to his name, said this week he is open to the idea of returning if the right opportunity presents itself. Hamilton stated a Vettel return would be an ideal scenario for Mercedes. “I would love for Seb to come back and I think it would be an amazing option for the team,” […]
