Kyle Schwarber hit his 25th home run and ended the match with a 12th-inning sacrifice fly, giving the Philadelphia Phillies a 7-6 victory over the San Diego Padres on Sunday. The defending NL champions won three games in a row over the Padres on the heels of a three-game losing skid, including a series-opening loss to San Diego to start the second half. The Padres, who lost in the NLCS to the Phillies last fall, dropped to 44-50, including 19-27 on the road. Philadelphia (51-42) overcame a 3-0 deficit, then wasted a 5-3 lead when pinch-hitter Fernando Tatis Jr. had a two-run single in the eighth […]

There’s still time left on the clock for LeBron James’ career. The Lakers star revealed Wednesday night at the ESPYS in Los Angeles that he will continue playing. James openly pondered retirement after the Lakers’ playoff sweep by the Denver Nuggets in the Western Conference finals, but he will become the sixth player in NBA history to play in his 21st season or beyond — joining Dirk Nowitzki, Kevin Garnett, Robert Parish, Kevin Willis and Vince Carter, who has the record with 22. “I don’t care how many more points I score or what I can or cannot do on the floor,” James said after accepting the […]

Athletics have begun Las Vegas relocation process

The Athletics, poised to move out of Oakland and into Las Vegas, have “begun to submit information related to their relocation application,” Major League Baseball commissioner Rob Manfred said Tuesday, adding that the application is “not complete at this point.” About a month ago, the Nevada State Legislature approved a $380 million bill that would help fund a proposed 30,000-seat, $1.5 billion retractable-roof ballpark on the Tropicana hotel site along the Vegas strip. The A’s, based in Oakland since 1968, hope to break ground next year and open the venue in time for the 2028 season. Their lease at the Oakland […]

Cardinals star Nolan Arenado prepared for trade possibility

St. Louis Cardinals All-Star third baseman Nolan Arenado knows that despite his superstar status, he could be on the chopping block just like anyone else as the trade deadline approaches. “It is a business, right?” Arenado said. “I’ve been traded once. I think that shocked a lot of people at that time,” he added. “I guess it doesn’t surprise me anymore what happens in this game.” Arenado made the comments from the All-Star festivities in Seattle, where he is the lone Cardinals player in this year’s Midsummer Classic.

76ers match 3-year, $23M offer sheet on Paul Reed

The Philadelphia 76ers have matched restricted free agent forward Paul Reed’s three-year, $23 million offer sheet with the Utah Jazz and will keep him. Reed signed the offer sheet on Saturday morning, and the Sixers waited until 90 minutes prior to the 11:59 p.m. ET Sunday deadline to inform Utah that they matched the sheet. Reed has veto power on any trade and can’t be moved to Utah for a full year. One of the terms of the offer sheet provided a unique twist on Reed’s contract: The first season of the contract is fully guaranteed, but the next two seasons, worth $15.7 million, become […]

Isaac Paredes and Yandy Díaz homered as the Tampa Bay Rays snapped a season-high, seven-game skid with a 10-4 victory over the Atlanta Braves on Sunday in a matchup of teams with the best records in baseball. Zach Eflin (10-4) gave up two runs and four hits over five innings in a 77-pitch outing as Tampa Bay avoided the three-game series sweep. The 29-year-old righty is 9-1 in 10 starts at home. “It’s a day we kind of needed a win,” Eflin said. “Get right back on track. Take that momentum into the break.” Travis d’Arnaud homered for the MLB-best Braves, who are 20-3 since June 14 […]

Brandon Miller shakes off slow start, nets 18 in Hornets debut

Brandon Miller made his summer league debut for the Charlotte Hornets on Monday night, concluding with 18 points in a 98-77 loss to the San Antonio Spurs at the California Classic. The No. 2 pick showed some jitters through the first three quarters, committing six turnovers and finishing the night with seven fouls. Most of his fouls stemmed from him struggling to stay in front of offensive players. “I’m a little frustrated because I don’t like to lose, but I had fun out there,” Miller said. “Seeing a different environment from the college experience was fun. I think I was relaxed as far as emotions. Just let […]

Sean Hjelle pitched four shutout innings of relief to help the San Francisco Giants extend their winning streak to 10 matches, defeating Yu Darvish and the San Diego Padres 4-2 on Wednesday night.

San Francisco also benefited from an overturned call at home plate in the fifth. Blake Sabol of the Giants appeared to be thrown out sliding into home by a strong throw from Fernando Tatis Jr. on Pederson’s two-out single to right. Sabol was initially ruled out but the call was challenged by San Francisco […]
