Tigers 5, Twins 3 – Tigers top Twins 5-3 after  Minnesota’s flurry of trade deals

Riley Greene had two hits and two RBIs as the Detroit  Tigers spoiled Minnesota’s big trade deadline day, beating the Twins 5-3. Jason  Foley (1-0) earned his first career win with a scoreless inning in relief of  starter Matt Manning, who was activated off the 60-day injured list before the  game after missing three months with right shoulder inflammation. Gregory Soto  earned his 20th save. Griffin Jax (5-3) allowed three runs in 1/3 inning of  relief. Mark Contreras hit his first career homer for the Twins, who have lost  five of seven.

White Sox 9, Royals 2 – Jiménez drives in 4, Abreu  homers, White Sox beat Royals 9-2

  Eloy Jiménez had three hits and four RBIs, José Abreu  homered and the Chicago White Sox pounded the Kansas City Royals 9-2. The White  Sox made no major moves prior to the trade deadline and will bank on  improvement from within as they try to overtake Minnesota and Cleveland to win  their second straight AL Central championship. This one wasn’t exactly  pristine, but the White Sox will take the lopsided win. Jiménez singled and  scored in a three-run first inning and smacked a two-run double in the fourth  to bump Chicago’s lead to 5-2. He added a long sacrifice fly in the sixth  before Abreu chased Royals starter Brad Keller with a two-run homer making it  8-2.

Cardinals 6, Cubs 0 – Wainwright, reunited with  Molina, hurls Cards past Cubs 6-0

  Adam Wainwright pitched seven spotless innings with  longtime catcher Yadier Molina back behind the plate, and the St. Louis  Cardinals beat the Chicago Cubs 6-0. Paul Goldschmidt homered and drove in  three runs to lead the St. Louis offense. Dylan Carlson hit a two-run shot and  made a nice catch in center field. Nolan Arenado also went deep. Molina  returned from knee inflammation that had sidelined him since June 16. He and  Wainwright made their 317th career start as batterymates, passing the  Boston/Milwaukee Braves duo of Warren Spahn and Del Crandall for sole  possession of second place in major league history since 1901. The only pair in  front is Mickey Lolich and Bill Freehan with 324 for the Detroit Tigers from  1963-75.

MLB  – Contreras, Happ stay with Cubs after deadline passes

  The  Chicago Cubs are keeping All-Stars Willson Contreras and Ian Happ for now after  Tuesday’s trade deadline passed with no deal for either. With the Cubs  rebuilding and free agency looming, Contreras appeared destined to be traded.  Fellow All-Star Happ also seemed like a good bet to be dealt. Contreras got a  standing ovation in what many thought would be his final home game at Wrigley  Field against Pittsburgh on July 26. Teammates hugged him following Sunday’s  4-0 loss at San Francisco, thinking that might have been his last game for the  Cubs.

MLB  – Twins stock up with starter Mahle, relievers López, Fulmer

  The  Minnesota Twins stocked up their sputtering pitching staff before Tuesday’s  trade deadline. They acquired All-Star closer Jorge López from the Baltimore  Orioles, starter Tyler Mahle from the Cincinnati Reds and reliever Michael  Fulmer from the Detroit Tigers, giving up a total of eight prospects in three  separate deals. The Twins took a one-game lead in the AL Central into their  game on Tuesday. They have a 5.30 team ERA since the All-Star break.

WNBA  – WNBA playoff picture still muddled, 2 weeks left in season

  The  WNBA playoff picture is still unclear with two weeks left in the regular  season. Five teams have clinched postseason berths and only three games  separating Chicago, Las Vegas and Connecticut at the top of the standings.  Seattle and Washington also have earned a spot in the postseason and are tied  for fourth and fifth. There are still six teams vying for the final three  spots, setting up what should be an exciting finish to the regular season. Each  of those six teams has at least one game left against the other teams in the  group.

NBA  – Bulls and Dragic finalize $2.9 million, 1-year contract

From Slovenia, he made an All-Star team  with the Heat during the 2017-18 season and helped them advance to the 2020 NBA  finals. Dragic averaged 7.5 points while shooting 25.4% from beyond the arc  last season for Toronto and Brooklyn.

NFL  – NFL suspends Dolphins owner for tampering with Brady, Payton

  The  NFL has suspended Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross and fined him $1.5 million  for tampering with Tom Brady and Sean Payton following a six-month  investigation stemming from Brian Flores’ racial discrimination lawsuit against  the league. The league’s investigation found the Dolphins did not intentionally  lose games during the 2019 season but the team had impermissible communication  with Brady and his agent, Don Yee. The Dolphins will forfeit a first-round  selection in the 2023 draft and third-round selection in the 2024 draft. Ross  is suspended through Oct. 17. He may not be present at the team’s facility and  may not represent the club at any team or NFL event.

NFL  – Art McNally set to become 1st NFL official in Hall of Fame

  The  NFL finally will have an on-field official in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.  Former referee Art McNally will be inducted into the Hall after a decades-long  career starting as an on-field official and continuing as the head of  officiating for the league. McNally was instrumental in modernizing and  standardizing officiating. His use of film to teach and evaluate and a grading  system is still mostly in use today and is credited for helping improve the way  games have been called over the years.
