Five runs scored against Corbin Burnes today, his most with the Orioles. Any chance at a 19th quality landed in the center field seats in the fifth inning. An abnormal result from the reliable ace. Eloy Jiménez was in the lineup against a right-hander and collected three hits in his first three at-bats, including a run-scoring single in the third. Didn’t see that one coming, either. Baseball’s unpredictability surfaced again today and the Orioles were happy to settle for a split of their four-game series against the Guardians, with home runs by Jackson Holliday and Gunnar Henderson contributing to a 9-5…
Samuel Chukwueze has been one of the stand-out players of AC Milan’s preseason campaign so far, and a report about the winger has taken a dig at Stefano Pioli. As Tuttosport (via MilanNews) report, Chukwueze has started preseason the way that he finished last season, i.e. playing full of confidence and looking like one of the brightest stars on the team. From March onwards, the former Villarreal man seemed to settle into a groove with Milan and with Italian football, while this summer he has taken full advantage of the opportunity to work immediately with the team and with the new…
Assane Diao, a Real Betis player, is reportedly on AC Milan’s radar as they look to add more players for the summer. Il Messaggero (via PianetaMilan) is reporting that Geoffrey Moncada and his scouting staff are impressed with Diao’s versatility, as he can play on both sides as well as a center-forward or second striker. Despite being just 18 years old, the Spaniard of Senegalese descent was the surprise star of the previous season under Manuel Pellegrini, scoring four goals in 28 appearances throughout La Liga, the Europa League, the Conference League, and the Copa del Rey.In addition to Brentford…
Debate surrounding Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark and Chicago Sky forward Angel Reese for the WNBA’s Rookie of the Year Award continues to heat up, with past legends entering the conversation to provide their opinions on the race. The next WNBA legend to insert their thoughts on the topic is Sue Bird. She played for 20 years as she won four championships while being a 13-time All-Star. She was one of the best three-point shooters the league has ever seen, making 39.2% of her attempts from downtown throughout her career. It was only inevitable for the conversation regarding Clark and Reese to catch up to Bird. This was the…
F1 vehicles have been getting heavier over the past few years, a fact that Carlos Sainz has brought attention to. The minimum weight requirement for the current cars is 798 kg; for the campaign the following year, this weight will rise to 800 kg. The weight of F1 competitors has increased significantly in recent seasons; the vehicles from 2024 are more than 100 kg heavier than those from the turbo hybrid era that ushered in the current decade. Sainz, who is leaving Ferrari to join Williams in the upcoming season, stated that the persistent worries are a result of the…
Will Reichard changed how the public viewed his position at Alabama. The former Crimson Tide kicker and Hoover native finally eliminated the jokes and memes that had surrounded his spot during the Nick Saban era, becoming the NCAA’s all-time scoring leader in the process. Now Reichard’s off to the NFL. Tasked with replacing him is Graham Nicholson, who transferred in from Miami of Ohio. “He’s been really consistent,” Alabama head coach Kalen DeBoer said after UA’s fourth preseason camp practice Sunday. “Honestly, all of our kickers have, but specifically with Graham, I stand behind the kicker, and I try to make every kick.…
One of the most contentious and debated issues regarding Milan recently is undoubtedly the lack of Italian players in coach Paulo Fonseca’s squad. Both the new coach and Zlatan Ibrahimovic have been asked about this, but the response has been that quality is the primary criterion, and players who can improve the team are sought regardless of nationality. It all starts with the possibility of seeing an entirely foreign starting eleven next season, as suggested with this lineup: Mike Maignan; Emerson Royal, Fikayo Tomori, Strahinja Pavlovic, Theo Hernandez; Tijjani Reijnders, Youssouf Fofana; Christian Pulisic, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Rafael Leao; Alvaro Morata.…
As I touched on yesterday in my Jahmal Banks recap, one of the top goals Nebraska football had this offseason was upgrading the wide receiver position. Outside of junior walk-on Alex Bullock and senior Isaiah Garcia-Castaneda — who has appeared in five games in two years because of injuries — the room skews young. The rest of the players expected to be key contributors are underclassmen: Jaylen Lloyd, Malachi Coleman, Jacory Barney, Janiran Bonner and Carter Nelson. With nine first- and second-year scholarship players in the room, the staff wanted to infuse some talent from established upperclassmen from the portal. Nebraska…
The Celtics may have already applied the finishing touches to their roster before their title defense starts. They’ve met the NBA’s minimum requirement of signing 14 players to standard contracts. That leaves one opening that may remain vacant to preserve flexibility and avoid adding more salary to a $205 million payroll. Boston’s poised to go over the second apron for a second straight season before spending roughly $515.4 million in payroll and tax payments on their 2025-26 team. But even with the Celtics signing their second-round pick in this year’s draft, Anton Watson, to a two-way deal on Friday, filling their…
Anthony Edwards is currently playing in his first Olympics for Team USA in Paris. The All-Star guard has been fantastic through the team’s first three games.
