MLB News: Phillies INF Edmundo Sosa injured vs. Yankees


Philadelphia Phillies third baseman Edmundo Sosa exited Saturday’s game against the host New York Yankees in the seventh inning following a scary collision with left fielder Brandon Marsh.

With two outs and the Phillies holding a 9-3 lead, Jazz Chisholm Jr. hit a pop up to shallow left field. As Sosa backpedaled and called for the ball, Marsh charged in and appeared to hit the infielder in the back. Sosa sustained a back contusion, per the team.

Sosa was checked out by a trainer for a few minutes before exiting under his own power. When his spot came up in the eighth, Sosa was replaced by Otto Kemp.

Sosa, who was making his 15th start at third base, hit a two-run homer in Philadelphia’s four-run seventh inning. Sosa is hitting .270 with four homers and 25 RBIs in 56 games this season.

MLB News: Phillies roll in win; Yankees’ Aaron Judge headed to IL


Bryce Harper homered in the third inning and Kyle Schwarber hit a two-run double one pitch after an error by second baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. in the seventh as the visiting Philadelphia Phillies rolled to a 9-4 victory over the struggling New York Yankees on Saturday afternoon.

The Phillies sent the Yankees to their seventh loss in 10 games following New York’s five-game winning streak July 6-11. Philadelphia also earned the win after the Yankees held Aaron Judge out of the lineup because of a right elbow injury.

Tests showed later Saturday that Judge has a flexor strain. He will go on the 10-day injured list, though he suffered no damage to his UCL, Yankees manager Aaron Boone said after the loss.

Harper, meanwhile, tagged New York’s Marcus Stroman for a 425-foot drive into the right-center field seats with two outs after the right-hander struck out Trea Turner and Schwarber.

Schwarber followed his second two-homer game this season with a double during a four-run seventh off Allan Winans. Schwarber’s hit gave the Phillies a 9-1 lead and occurred after Chisholm booted a grounder by Turner for New York’s 10th error in its past five games.

Turner opened the game with a ground-rule double and scored three batters later on an RBI single by J.T. Realmuto, who hit the tiebreaking three-run homer in the seventh off Luke Weaver on Friday.

Turner drove in a run with a ground ball to shortstop in the fourth, when the Phillies drew four walks. The shortstop added an RBI double in the sixth off Yerry de Los Santos for a 5-1 lead before reaching on Chisholm’s misplay.

Edmundo Sosa blasted a two-run homer in the seventh as the Phillies totaled 13 hits, giving them 27 in the series. Sosa exited with a back contusion after the seventh following a collision with left fielder Brandon Marsh while fielding a pop up by Chisholm.

Philadelphia’s Ranger Suarez bounced back from Sunday’s rough outing against the Los Angeles Angels and held the Yankees to one run on seven hits in 5 2/3 innings. The left-hander tied a season high with eight strikeouts, walked one and threw 108 pitches.

Jasson Dominguez had an RBI single in the fourth off Suarez, who held Paul Goldschmidt, Cody Bellinger and Giancarlo Stanton hitless in eight at-bats. Ben Rice scored on a balk in the eighth before Alan Rangel struck out Goldschmidt.

Stanton hit a two-run homer in the seventh for the Yankees, who have been outscored 55-38 since the All-Star break.

Stroman endured the worst of his five starts since returning from a left knee injury. The right-hander allowed four runs on five hits in 3 2/3 innings.

MLB News: Giants’ pitching staff dwindles as Landen Roupp hits IL


The San Francisco Giants’ rotation took another hit when right-hander Landen Roupp landed on the 15-day injured list with elbow inflammation.

The move announced Friday is retroactive to Wednesday for Roupp, whose MRI exam showed no structural issues, according to The Athletic.

The Giants are down to three regular starters with All-Stars Logan Webb and Robbie Ray and future Hall of Famer Justin Verlander.

“In flux,” manager Bob Melvin said of his rotation. “Probably Tuesday we’ll have to make a move. … We have to be prepared for anything.”

Roupp, 26, is 7-6 with a 3.11 ERA through 20 starts. He allowed four hits and struck out six in five scoreless innings in a 9-0 victory at Atlanta on Tuesday.

In a corresponding move Friday, San Francisco recalled right-hander Tristan Beck from Triple-A Sacramento. Beck, 29, is 1-0 with a 5.14 ERA in 11 games (no starts) this season for the Giants.

MLB News: Aaron Judge has flexor strain, will spend time on IL


Yankees superstar right fielder Aaron Judge has a flexor strain and will spend time on the injured list, though he sustained no damage to his UCL, New York manager Aaron Boone said after Saturday’s 9-4 loss to the Philadelphia Phillies.

Judge underwent imaging on his right elbow Saturday morning and was not in the lineup for the afternoon game against the visiting Phillies.

“He had a throw in Toronto where it zinged him, it hurt,” manager Aaron Boone told reporters Saturday, referencing Tuesday’s 5-4 victory in Toronto when the Yankees captain winced in apparent pain after making a routine throw.

“Then, you know, felt good to go on the off day, and then last night, though, just was struggling to throw a little bit. So want to get this checked out.”

Boone said it was “tough to say” whether the strain occurred during that throw in Toronto.

He said the injury appears to be affecting Judge’s throwing more than his hitting.

“It was more about throwing last night, like he couldn’t really get the ball in very well,” Boone said. “So felt like want to have him down and get the imaging and get our hands around just what exactly we’re dealing with.”

Judge, 33, belted his 37th home run of the season and 352nd of his career on Wednesday to pass Alex Rodriguez for sixth place in Yankees history. Yogi Berra is fifth with 358.

The two-time American League MVP currently paces the majors in batting average (.342), on-base percentage (.449) and slugging percentage (.756). He leads the AL in runs (90) and RBIs (85).

NCAAF News: ACC Kickoff notebook: Carson Beck back to 100% ahead of Miami debut


CHARLOTTE — Carson Beck hasn’t exactly had a typical first offseason at Miami.

The Georgia transfer quarterback suffered a UCL injury in his elbow in the Bulldogs’ 22-19 SEC championship game victory over Texas. That injury unceremoniously ended his five-year career in Athens and kept him sidelined this spring at his new school after transferring in January.

But Beck said Tuesday at ACC Kickoff that he’s now back to 100 percent after starting to throw again in April.

“It was a hard process,” Beck said. “It was a hard journey to go through that and get what I love the most taken away from me.”

He arrives in Miami coming off two productive seasons with the Bulldogs in which he threw for 7,426 yards, 52 touchdowns and 18 interceptions.

After replacing Stetson Bennett, who led the Bulldogs to back-to-back national titles in 2021 and 2022, he now replaces another local legend in former Miami quarterback Cam Ward, who was a 2024 Heisman Trophy finalist and the No. 1 overall pick in April’s NFL Draft.

“We’re thrilled to have had Cam and we’re thrilled to have Carson here now,” Miami head coach Mario Cristobal said. “Carson has as good of experience as a quarterback as you can have. He’s played in monster games, and he’s played at a high level.”

–Lashlee speaks out against CFP committee approach

Rhett Lashlee’s first season in the ACC as SMU head coach was a smashing success.

He led the Mustangs to appearances in the ACC championship game and College Football Playoff behind an 11-1 regular season (8-0 ACC).

And yet, even if his team benefited from the subjective nature of the CFP committee last season, Lashlee talked at length Tuesday about why he believes college football needs to move away from using a selection committee to determine the playoff field.

“I respect what (the committee has) to do,” Lashlee said. “But honestly it’s a situation that’s set up for failure because there’s human bias and there’s always going to be.”

Lashlee was fierce in his belief that the CFP should settle at 16 teams. To avoid the subjective arguments that the committee would have to handle, he wants to see automatic bids expand dramatically and for conferences to have play-in games for CFP spots after the regular season ends.

“It would be like March Madness Thursday and Friday,” Lashlee said. “It would be the best Saturday that college football could ever manufacture.”

–ACC instituting player availability reports for 2025-26 season

ACC commissioner Jim Phillips announced during his address on Tuesday that the conference will be introducing a few new rules and regulations in 2025 that will move the conference in line with current college athletics trends.

Most notably, the ACC will mandate player availability reports ahead of all conference football, basketball and baseball games. This follows in the footsteps of the Big Ten mandating availability reports starting in 2023 and the SEC introducing them in 2024.

“This decision is directly connected to our ongoing commitment to best protect our student-athletes and our multi-faceted approach to addressing the effects of sports wagering,” Phillips said.

The initial reports will be published two days before each conference game and will be updated the day before and day of each game.

NFL News: Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson gets 4-year, $52M extension


The Dallas Cowboys signed Jake Ferguson to a four-year, $52 million contract extension on Sunday, making him the highest-paid tight end in franchise history.

The deal includes $30 million guaranteed for Ferguson, who was due to earn $3.4 million in the final year of his rookie contract in 2025.

Ferguson, 26, caught 59 passes for 494 yards with no touchdowns in 14 games (all starts) for the Cowboys last season.

The 2022 fourth-round draft pick made the Pro Bowl in 2023 and has 149 receptions for 1,429 yards and seven TDs in 47 career games (38 starts).

According to the Cowboys, Ferguson becomes the seventh-highest paid tight end in the NFL and the extension also frees up $1.8 million toward the team’s 2025 salary cap.

Although Dallas has locked up a key piece of its offense, All-Pro pass-rusher Micah Parsons still is waiting for his payday as the team prepares for its Sept. 4 season opener at defending Super Bowl champion Philadelphia.

The announcement about Ferguson’s deal on the team’s website said Cowboys co-owner and COO Stephen Jones considers the training camp site in Oxnard, Calif., a “friendly ground for getting contracts one, so Dallas may not be done just yet.”

NFL News: Commanders’ Terry McLaurin arrives at camp, put on PUP list


Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin arrived at training camp Sunday without a new deal and was placed on the physically unable to perform list with an ankle injury.

“Terry McLaurin has reported and we’re very happy about that,” Commanders head coach Dan Quinn said. “He’ll start training camp on PUP for his ankle.”

McLaurin, who turns 30 in September, was placed on the reserve/did not report list Wednesday.

He is seeking an extension as he enters the final season of a three-year, $68.4 million deal. His average annual salary of $22.8 million ranks 17th among receivers. Cincinnati’s Ja’Marr Chase is No. 1, earning an average of $40.2 million, per Spotrac.

“On the business side, (Commanders general manager Adam Peters) and his side are still working very hard with Terry and his reps on the business side of things,” Quinn said. “While on PUP he’ll be working with the trainers.”

McLaurin was fined $50,000 per day and $200,000 in total after missing the start of training camp.

Washington selected McLaurin, a product of Ohio State, in the third round of the 2019 NFL Draft. He has been selected to the Pro Bowl twice and was named a second team All-Pro in 2024.

McLaurin is coming off a big year, amassing 82 catches for 1,096 yards and a career-high 13 receiving touchdowns in 17 games. It was his fifth consecutive 1,000-yard season.

NFL News: Commanders inducting Santana Moss into Ring of Fame


The Washington Commanders will induct wide receiver Santana Moss into the franchise’s Ring of Fame during the Sept. 7 season opener against the New York Giants, the team announced Sunday.

Moss played the last 10 seasons (2005-14) of his NFL career with Washington following four seasons with the New York Jets (2001-04).

He ranks third in Washington franchise history in career catches (581), fourth in receiving yards (7,867) and seventh in touchdown receptions (47).

Moss made his lone Pro Bowl in his first year in the nation’s capital, catching 84 passes for a career-high 1,483 yards and nine TDs. His yardage total remains the Washington single-season record.

The Commanders surprised Moss, 46, during a live broadcast with the team at training camp in Ashburn, Va. He was surrounded by friends and family members wearing burgundy caps with “MOSS” on the front and his jersey No. 89 on the sides.

“Normally, I am so nonchalant,” an emotional Moss said. “I don’t know how to take in stuff, but man, that one right there … I don’t want to show my tears, but I’m about to shed some. I appreciate that news.”

Drafted in the first round (16th overall) by the Jets in 2001, Moss retired with 732 receptions for 10,283 yards and 66 scores in 197 games (135 starts). He had 24 100-yard games and four 1,000-yard seasons.

NWSL News: Report: NWSL ratings down 8% entering break


Viewership for the 2025 NWSL season was down about 8 percent heading into its summer break while the league suffered from the absence of multiple star players at various points, according to a report by Sports Business Journal.

The league returns to action Aug. 3 after a break for confederation competitions, and there is optimism that viewership will increase during what is traditionally the NWSL’s most-watched month.

NWSL games are averaging 189,000 viewers across ESPN networks, ION and CBS through 38 national window games. At the same point last season, the league was averaging around 205,000 viewers per game.

The NWSL is in the second year of a four-year media rights deal, but viewership has been hampered by several marquee players missing time.

Stars forward Mallory Swanson and Thorns forward Sophia Wilson are pregnant, while Sprit forward Trinity Rodman and Gotham FC midfielder Rose Lavelle have been sidelined by injuries. According to the report, those players only appeared in three of 22 national television window games that included those players’ teams.

“We have the most moms playing in any sports league in the world, and they’re going to come back,” NWSL SVP/Broadcast & Executive Producer Brian Gordon told SBJ. “So, the things that we can control, we control this year with our schedule. And the things we can’t control jumped up and hurt us.”

According to the report, ratings are down 13 percent year over year on CBS, which has seven more regular-season matches before the playoffs. The network will carry a quarterfinal and a semifinal match along with the championship game.

Meanwhile, eight matches across ESPN, ESPN2 and ABC are actually up 29 percent thus far. In addition, NWSL viewing on ION’s FAST channel is up 18 percent per match, although those numbers are not yet measured by Nielsen.

Report: Bulls, Billy Donovan reach multi-year extension


Chicago Bulls head coach Billy Donovan signed a multi-year contract extension, ESPN reported Sunday.

Terms of the deal were not disclosed for Donovan, 60, who had one year remaining on the contract.

Donovan guided Chicago its second consecutive 39-43 record last season, finishing ninth in the Eastern Conference. The Bulls fell 109-90 to the Miami Heat in a play-in game and missed the playoffs for the third straight season.

Donovan is 195-205 during his five seasons with Chicago. He is 438-362 during his time with the Oklahoma City Thunder (2015-20) and Bulls.
