LOUIS — Bryce Harper arrived at Busch Stadium early Saturday afternoon with a message for all of his Philadelphia Phillies teammates.He wanted them to know that this — the St. Louis Cardinals’ magical season, the historic careers of Albert Pujols and Yadier Molina and, more specifically, the first-round wild-card series — would end later that night. The Phillies, he told them, would not allow for a decisive Game 3.”We’re not losing,” he continued to say as he went around the clubhouse.Then he delivered.Harper homered off a first-pitch Miles Mikolas curveball to lead off the second inning, silencing a sold-out crowd and providing all the run support a dominant Aaron Nola would need. The Phillies, who fired their manager 51 games into the season and finished third in its division, defeated the Cardinals 2-0 and advanced to a National League Division Series showdown against the Atlanta Braves.”It’s MVP-type…

T.J. Watt recently underwent arthroscopic knee surgery that is expected to delay his return to the Pittsburgh Steelers, sources told ESPN.Watt, who already was recovering from a torn pectoral muscle, had the knee surgery to clean up a preseason injury that lingered into the regular season, according to sources. The star pass-rusher initially was expected to miss six weeks because of the pectoral injury suffered in Pittsburgh’s season opener, setting up a potential return Oct. 30 against the Eagles.But the knee surgery likely will push back Watt’s return by at least another week or two, according to sources, meaning the reigning NFL Defensive Player of the Year now might not be back until after the Steelers’ bye in Week 9. Pittsburgh hosts the Saints in Week 10 before a Week 11 road game against the Colts on Monday Night Football.The Steelers will not rush Watt back and will be diligent in monitoring how both his knee and pectoral muscle respond….

The NFL and NFL Players Association released a joint statement Saturday finalizing their review of the application of the league’s concussion protocol following Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa’s apparent head injury Sept. 25, implementing an amendment to said protocol.The statement concluded that although the step-by-step process of the concussion protocol was followed, “the outcome in this case was not what was intended when the Protocol was drafted.”Tagovailoa appeared to sustain a head injury during the Dolphins’ game against the Buffalo Bills on Sept. 25 when he hit his head on the ground and then stumbled while attempting to return to the huddle. The stumble was considered a display of gross motor instability, which is one of the protocol’s “no-go” symptoms that requires a player be removed from a game without the possibility to return.He was immediately taken to the locker room for a concussion evaluation but informed both the team’s…

ASHBURN, Va. — Washington Commanders running back Brian Robinson has been placed on the 53-man roster and will play vs. the Tennessee Titanson Sunday, six weeks after being shot twice in his right leg.Robinson, who had been placed on the non-football injury list, was cleared to practice Wednesday. There had been optimism all week about Robinson’s chances of playing, especially after his right knee responded well after practicing each day.It’s uncertain how much he’ll play and Washington does have other effective running backs in Antonio Gibson and J.D. McKissic. Gibson has been the Commanders’ primary back for the past two seasons and has rushed for 173 yards this year, while averaging only 3.3 yards per carry. McKissic is their third-down back.Washington likes Robinson as a primary between-the-tackles runner and could pair him in packages with either Gibson or McKissic, both of whom are pass-catching threats.”You’ve got a good group…

NEW YORK — The dreams of Mets fans were supposed to come true on Friday night. When Max Scherzer signed a three-year, $130 million contract with New York, the wild-card series opener was the type of game Mets fans imagined the future Hall of Famer would dominate, an important moment setting the tone for a team ahead of a playoff run.Instead, those fantasies were shattered as Scherzer unraveled in his start against the San Diego Padres, allowing seven earned runs on seven hits — including giving up a career-high four home runs — while striking out just four batters in 4⅔ innings in a 7-1loss by New York.Hours after Scherzer left the Citi Field mound, the moments of struggle played on a loop in his head.”This is going to be a late night for me,” Scherzer said.The damage started in the first inning when Padres designated hitter Josh Bell slugged a 419-foot opposite-field home run that scored Jurickson Profar. Outfielder …

Paul Westphal couldn’t contain his excitement as he headed back into the Kings’ locker room after the game. “They should’ve gone up by 40,” the veteran coach exclaimed.The sense of joy in his voice was palpable.Just down the hall, the misery coming from the Bulls locker room was just as present. Joakim Noah sat in front of his locker and leaned back in his chair with his eyes closed. He couldn’t believe that his team had just blown a 35-point lead.In truth, nobody in the United Center could. Derrick Rose when asked if something like this has ever happened in his career: “Never. But I guess there’s a first time for everything. Just nonchalant attitude, I guess. But we’ll be fine.” Tyreke Evans on the game as a whole: “Wow, that’s all I can say. Wow. That was crazy. I’ve never been a part of a team that came back like that.” Vinny Del Negro when told people were saying they’ve never seen something like that: “I haven’t either….

ST. LOUIS — Jean Segura’scareer spanned 11 seasons and 1,328 games before he finally reached the postseason, the longest active streak in the major leagues. On the morning of his first playoff game, the Philadelphia Phillies’ second baseman barely slept. He awoke at 7 a.m. “with adrenaline in my body.” Friday wore on, and that edge never left.”I was mentally focused on every play, every pitch,” Segura said. “I came prepared today to play a game, and to be able to be here — I just thank God that everything was on my side.”With the Phillies down a run, the bases loaded, one out in the top of the ninth and the St. Louis Cardinals scrambling to replace their wounded closer, Segura snuck a grounder past a slightly drawn-in infield, plating two runs and propelling the Phillies to an improbable 6-3 win in the opening game of their best-of-three wild-card series, putting them on the cusp of advancing into the National League Division Series.The…

CLEVELAND — When the Cleveland Guardians needed a response, after Tampa Bay took a 1-0 lead in Game 1 of their AL Wild Card Series on Friday, it came as no surprise that All-Star third baseman Jose Ramirez would be the guy to come through. He’s done it all year.”He’s inevitable,” winning pitcher Shane Bieber said after the Guardians’ 2-1 win. “To do it right away, that was huge. I know for me personally, any pitcher, will tell you that.”Ramirez hit an 88 mph changeup for a two-run home run in the bottom of the sixth not long after Jose Siri had given the Rays the lead in the top of the inning. Response accomplished.”Yeah, that [responding] came through my mind, but we have a really good team, so I knew we were capable to come back,” Ramirez said through the team interpreter. “When it came off the bat I felt it was a homer, but with this weather you never know, and when I saw the center fielder trying to get to the wall, I was kind of concerned…

It’s nice when I walk down the hallway and I hear, ‘What up, beast?’ which is, for whatever reason, he calls me beast all the time. I don’t think I give off the beast vibe, but we’ll just take it day by day from there.”McDaniel said Tagovailoa will not be placed on injured reserve this weekend, leaving open…

LONDON — Maybe a trip across the pond will be what Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers need to get the potency back in their passing game.While Sunday’s game against the New York Giants in London is long on running backs with the NFL’s leading rusher in Saquon Barkley on one side and the Packers’ combination of Aaron Jones and AJ Dillon on the other, Rodgers is still the star attraction — even if his numbers have been off his usual pace through the first four games.Rodgers drew the biggest crowd of reporters during the Packers media session Friday at The Grove Hotel and when he was asked if he’d like coach Matt LaFleur to turn him loose and let him air it out, Rodgers didn’t hesitate.”Hell yeah, of course,” Rodgers said. “Matt’s kind of in a grumpy mood right now. When he gets a little bit of rest and will be in a better mood, we’ll talk about airing it out a little bit more.”Rodgers was referring to the fact that LaFleur…

The New York Giants will have their starting quarterback available Sunday against the Green Bay Packers. Daniel Jones (ankle) wasn’t even given an official designation on the week’s final injury report, meaning he’s good to go and likely to start.Backup Tyrod Taylor was ruled out after suffering a concussion in Sunday’s 20-12 win over the Chicago Bears. Jones and Davis Webb, who will be elevated from the practice squad, will be the Giants’ active quarterbacks against the Packers in London. New York doesn’t have any other quarterbacks on its roster.Jones suffered a sprained ankle when he was sacked in the third quarter against the Bears. He’s been a limited participant in practice this week. But he told ESPN after Thursday’s practice that he was “feeling better, getting better every day.”The Giants (3-1) held a light workout Friday morning after making the trip overseas to England. They will play at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on…

LAFAYETTE, La. — David Booker scored 26 points, including knocking down a big 3-pointer with 40 seconds left, to lead Tulane to a 73-70 win over Louisiana on Monday night. Booker, who finished 6 of 7 from long range, grabbed a pass that appeared to be headed out of bounds and nailed a 3 to put the Green Wave (4-7) up 70-66 in the final minute. Tyren Johnson hit one free throw to pull the Ragin’ Cajuns within three with 30 seconds left, but it wasn’t enough. Tulane sank three foul shots in the final 25 minutes to seal it. Randell Daigle put up a 3-pointer at the buzzer for Louisiana (4-6), but it rimmed out. Kevin Sims added 15 points for Tulane. Booker also had three steals and a block. Johnson scored 23 points to lead Louisiana, eclipsing 500 points for his career. Chris Gradnigo added a season-high 21 points. Tulane hit 10 3s versus just five for Louisiana.

DENVER — Denver Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson was still preaching the gospel of opportunity and belief Thursday night, but in the wake of an ugly 12-9 overtime loss to the Indianapolis Colts in which he threw two interceptions, Wilson did not mince words on his play.”It’s very simple — at the end of the day I’ve got to be better, I’ve got to play better,” Wilson said. “The defense played their butts off tonight, we had some key good drives. … At the end of the day throwing two interceptions can’t happen. Can’t happen. I let the team down tonight.”Wilson threw his second interception with just over two minutes to play in regulation when the Broncos had a chance to put the game away. And his errant throw on fourth-and-inches from the Colts’ 6-yard line in overtime, when he didn’t see an open KJ Hamler and tried to squeeze the ball in to Courtland Sutton instead, was the last play of the game.The Broncos, Wilson and coach…

WHEN ALABAMA’S NICK Saban and Texas A&M’s Jimbo Fisher traded barbs this year over payments to college football players through name, image and likeness deals, Saban called for transparency, and Fisher said his team was an open book.”I have nothing to hide. I have nothing to hide. And our program has nothing to hide,” Fisher said at a May 19 news conference. “Be interesting if everyone could say that.”Saban, who had accused Texas A&M of having “bought every player” during recruiting, advocated for transparency on May 31: “I’m all for players making as much as they can make,” he said. “I also think we’ve got to have some uniform transparent way to do that.”ESPN sought to take the coaches and other universities up on the notion that NIL information should be more transparent, asking a sampling of 23 universities — 20 from Power 5 conferences — to release their NIL-related documents or data. Across the board, schools provided few to no records. In the case of Saban’s Alabama,…

(Video) More stunning breakthroughs by Ukrainian forces reported

St. Louis Cardinals slugger Albert Pujols said he almost called it quits this summer before going on a tear that helped him become just the fourth player in major league history to reach 700 career home runs.Pujols told MLB.com in a story published Thursday night that he contemplated an early retirement in June after another rough start to the season. The future Hall of Famer was slashing .198/.294/.336 and had hit just four homers with 17 to go to hit 700.”No, I did, I swear I did,” Pujols said of weighing retirement. “There were some times when I [asked] myself that, many times.”But after tweaking how he was holding the bat in early July, something clicked. Pujols went on to slash .314/.377/.681, becoming one of the best hitters in baseball to close the season while mashing 20 homers in just over three months.”When you have good people around you and they are encouraging you and you realize that God has opened so many doors for you, man, it puts things back…

HENDERSON, Nev. — On Thursday, Victor Wembanyama’s teammates pulled him aside and showed him a video of LeBron James calling the projected No. 1 pick in next summer’s NBA draft “a generational talent” and “an alien.”Wembanyama, the 7-foot-4 talent from France who has wowed spectators and NBA execs alike in his first trip to America this week, said he still has more work to do before he deserves such high praise.”It’s obviously an honor to see such great people talk like this about me, but it really doesn’t change anything,” he said after leading his Metropolitans 92 squad to a 112-106 win over G League Ignite at Dollar Loan Center. “I was like, ‘Oh that’s cool.’ But no more. I have to try to stay focused. The thing is … I didn’t do anything yet.”With Scoot Henderson, the projected No. 2 pick in next summer’s draft and leader of G League Ignite, sidelined with a knee injury early in the game, Wembanyama was the main event Thursday. He finished with 36 points, 11…

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — Alabama coach Nick Saban said there’s no structural damage to quarterback Bryce Young’s right throwing shoulder and that he threw some in practice Wednesday, but Saban said a final decision on Young’s playing status for Saturday’s game against Texas A&M might not come until pregame warmups.”Bryce has been practicing, and all week, he’s been saying that he could play,” Saban told ESPN on Thursday. “But that’s going to be a medical decision. We’ve still got some time, and I want to talk more to Bryce. He’s the only one who knows how he feels because it’s going to be a pain-tolerance thing.”He’s a tough kid and great competitor. We’ll see where he is on game day.”Saban said the plan from Alabama’s medical staff was for Young not to throw on Thursday and instead rest his shoulder.”There was no reason for him to throw a lot this week, because if he does, it’s not going to get better. It’s just going to aggravate it,” Saban said. “Our doctors…

LAKE FOREST, Ill. — Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields ranks last in the NFL in completions (34), attempts (67), passer rating (58.7) and interception percentage (6). As a team, Chicago is 32nd in total passing and passing yards per game and is at the bottom of other statistical passing categories, including the fewest first downs earned by passing (17) and tied for the lowest number of touchdown passes (2).The first four games of Fields’ second season with the Bears have been challenging by any stretch. But that’s not how offensive coordinator Luke Getsy described it on Thursday.”I don’t think he’s had a rough month,” Getsy said. “I think he’s gotten better each week. I think he’s growing tremendously. And you know, it’s not easy. We’re playing good football teams, and it’s not easy to become the level of quarterback that he wants to become, and I know that he can become.”The important thing is that we stay focused, keep our eyes on that progress or on…

TAMPA, Fla. — Despite experiencing some discomfort in his right shoulder and finger that forced him to miss practice Wednesday, quarterback Tom Brady said he will play Sunday against the Atlanta Falconsas the 2-2 Buccaneers try to secure their first home win of the season.”It feels great,” Brady said Thursday with a smile. “I’ll be there Sunday.”Brady suffered a shoulder injury on a strip sack by cornerback L’Jarius Sneed in the first half of the Bucs’ 41-31 loss to the Kansas City Chiefson Sunday night. He did not miss a snap in that game, but appeared to be in discomfort and at one point backup quarterback Blaine Gabbert was warming up on the sidelines.By this Thursday though, the injury did not appear to bother him. During the portion of practice that was open to the media, Brady went through his usual throwing routine with no problems. And Wednesday has typically been Brady’s day off so far this season, although previously…

SAN FRANCISCO — Draymond Green apologized to the Golden State Warriors on Thursday morning for an altercation with Jordan Poole the day before, general manager Bob Myers said.Green subsequently left the training facilities and is not expected back until Saturday. The Warriors are still in the process of disciplining Green, but Myers said he does not expect him to miss any games due to punishment.”These things happen. Nobody likes it, we don’t condone it, but it happens,” Myers said. “Draymond apologized to the team. Jordan was there in the room. … As far as any suspension, punishment, fine, we will handle that internally.”Green threw a punch at Poole at practice Wednesday, sources told ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, in an altercation that began when the two started trash-talking and verbally sparring during practice.TMZ on Friday released what it said was video of the incident. In the video, Green steps up to Poole, who reacts by shoving the Warriors…

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Andy Reid probably doesn’t have much of a future in acting, but Patrick Mahomes liked the job the Kansas City Chiefs coach did in his latest State Farm TV commercial.”I made State Farm ask him first because I was scared,” Mahomes said. “Once they asked him, he kind of came to me and asked me if I wanted him to do it. Obviously I did because I know how much personality he has. … People don’t see it. They see the coach. They don’t see how funny he is.”Once I got in there, he actually got to start before me and then I came in and I mean, he did a great job. I think he stole the show and I’m just trying to hold on to my State Farm partnership now [because] he was really good.”In the commercial, Reid draws mustaches on players with a pen while they’re sleeping on a team flight. Mahomes approaches Reid with a handlebar mustache drawn on him and complains, “Coach, it happened again.”With pen in hand, Reid replies: “I’m going to get to the…

Texas quarterback Quinn Ewers, who has missed the past month with a significant injury in his non-throwing shoulder, will make his return to the field against rival Oklahoma on Saturday, sources told ESPN on Thursday.He’s expected to start against the Sooners in the Red River Showdown on Saturday in Dallas (noon ET, ABC).Ewers has been dressing for Texas’ games since his injury on Sept. 10, but this is the first game that he’s been healthy enough to play. Ewers has been a full participant in practice all week with no limitations, sources told ESPN.His return aligns with the initial expected four-to-six-week timeline after suffering a significant SC sprain — where the sternum meets the clavicle — against Alabama on Sept. 10.Ewers’ return provides another daunting offensive weapon for Texas against a struggling Oklahoma defense. He will play alongside Texas tailback Bijan Robinson — the consensus top NFL draft prospect at the…
