Curry scores 39, Warriors rally from 20 down, beat Pelicans

Draymond Green yelled at the other bench, his own team and even his coach, and this time those intense emotions absolutely made the difference. Steve Kerr loved it.“We need his fire,” Golden State’s coach stated.“It was perfect, right, perfectly executed,” Green said with a grin. Stephen Curry had 39 points with eight 3-pointers, eight rebounds and eight assists, Jordan Poole added 21 points with consecutive layups that gave Golden State the lead early in the fourth quarter, and the Warriors rallied past the New Orleans Pelicans 120-109 on Tuesday night in a testy, playoff-like matchup in late March. Klay Thompson scored 17 and hit five 3s […]

Andres Gimenez, Cleveland Guardians reach extension

Second baseman Andrés Giménez and the Cleveland Guardians are in agreement on a seven-year $106.5 million contract extension that has a team option for 2031, sources told ESPN. This locks up another core member of the club that has finished first or second in the American League Central for the last seven seasons. Giménez, 24, had a breakout 2022 in which he made his first All-Star team, aquired a Gold Glove and finished behind only Aaron Judge and Shohei Ohtani in the AL with 7.4 Wins Above Replacement. Acquired as part of the blockbuster deal that sent All-Star shortstop Francisco Lindor to the New York Mets in January 2021, Giménez […]

Wild On Ice Springs 35-1 Upset In Sunland Park Derby

Frank Sumpter’s homebred Wild On Ice outdueled a determined late challenger and got clear in the closing strides to collect the $600,000 Sunland Derby (G3) as the longest shot in the field Sunday at Sunland Park in New Mexico. Sent off at 35-1 odds and ridden by veteran Ken Tohill, Wild On Ice tracked from third through six furlongs, then went six wide through the second turn before snatching the lead in upper stretch. He shook off a strong bid from Low Expectations and powered across the finish line 1 1/4 lengths clear of that rival, who was the second-longest […]

Spirit Of Boom Colt Tops Day 1 at Magic Millions

Spirit Of Boom was the in-demand sire on Day 1 of the Magic Millions Gold Coast March Yearling Sale, a session that arguably provided another reality check for the Australian market after a period of sustained growth. The Eureka Stud stallion, the sire of 20 stakes winners, including group 1 winner Jonker, provided the three top-priced lots on Day 1 of the Gold Coast Sale and it was Toowoomba-based trainers Tony and Maddysen Sears who came away with his most expensive. Once again teaming up with agents Paul Moroney and Catheryne Bruggeman, the Sears’ paid AU$140,000 (US$93,737, AU$1=US$0.6695) for a colt (Lot 103) […]

‘Double loss’: Venezuela deflated after Altuve injury, WBC exit

It not only was a deflating loss for Team Venezuela — being ousted from the World Baseball Classic by Team USA on Saturday night — but the Houston Astros also lost All-Star second baseman Jose Altuve for an undetermined period of time after he suffered a right-hand injury during an at-bat. Altuve exited the match in the fifth inning after being drilled by a 96 mph fastball by Colorado Rockies relief pitcher Daniel Bard. Venezuela overcame a first-inning, three-run deficit and then managed a four-run rally after Altuve’s injury, but all their efforts proved futile when an eighth-inning grand slam from Philadelphia Phillies shortstop Trea Turner secured the Americans’ 9-7 triumph […]
