Jun 20, 2025; San Diego, California, USA; Kansas City Royals third baseman Jonathan India (6) hits a three-run home run during the fifth inning against the San Diego Padres at Petco Park. Mandatory Credit: Denis Poroy-Imagn Images Salvador Perez’s RBI single snapped a 4-4 tie in the top of the eighth inning Friday night and the visiting Kansas City Royals stopped the San Diego Padres 6-5.
Perez’s hit knocked in Maikel Garcia, who opened the inning with a single off Jason Adam (5-3) and reached scoring position via Vinnie Pasquantino’s walk. Drew Waters tacked on insurance later in the inning with a two-out single that plated pinch runner John Rave.
Reliever Lucas Erceg (2-2) got the win despite allowing a game-tying two-run single by Gavin Sheets in the bottom of the seventh that capped San Diego’s rally from a 4-0 deficit. Steven Cruz pitched a scoreless eighth and Carlos Estevez worked the ninth for his MLB-high 22nd save in 25 chances despite giving up a leadoff homer to Manny Machado, his 12th of the year.
Sheets’ hit no-decisioned both starters. Kansas City’s Michael Lorenzen went the first 5 1/3 innings, allowing five hits and two runs with three walks and four strikeouts. Padres right-hander Nick Pivetta lasted 4 2/3 innings, permitting six hits and four runs while walking two and whiffing three.
Coming off a two-hitter over seven innings Sunday in an 8-2 win at Arizona, Pivetta ran into instant trouble. He hung a curve to Bobby Witt Jr. with one out in the first and Witt blasted it into the seats in left for his 10th homer.
Pivetta was able to keep the Royals in check until the fifth. After walks to Freddy Fermin and Nick Loftin, Kyle Isbel bunted them over. Jonathan India cashed them in by cracking a three-run homer to left-center, his fourth.
Luis Arraez got San Diego on the board in its half of the fifth by stroking a two-out RBI single to right-center that scored Trenton Brooks. Pinch hitter Jose Iglesias made it 4-2 in the sixth by poking a run-scoring single to right that plated Xander Bogaerts.
Bogaerts finished with three hits, giving him eight straight hits, dating back to Wednesday. The streak ended when he popped out in the ninth.
Garcia bagged three hits for Kansas City.

Jon Jones Announces UFC Retirement, Tom Aspinall Named Heavyweight Champion
<!--> Jon Jones officially announced his retirement from UFC on Saturday night."This decision comes after a lot of reflection, and I want to take a moment to express my deepest gratitude for the journey I’ve experienced over the years," Jones wrote on social media."From the first time I stepped into the Octagon, my goal was to push the boundaries of what was possible in this sport. Becoming the youngest UFC champion in history, defending my title against some of the best fighters in the world, and sharing unforgettable moments with fans across the globe—these are memories I’ll cherish forever. I’ve faced incredible highs and some tough lows, but every challenge has taught me something valuable and made me stronger, both as a fighter and as a person.

River Plate pressiona na segunda etapa, mas fica no empate com Monterrey no Mundial de Clubes; leia análise
Apesar de quase 20 finalizações no jogo, o River Plate-ARG ficou no empate com o Monterrey-MEX, neste sábado, no Rose Bowl, em Los Angeles-EUA, pela segunda rodada do Grupo E da Copa do Mundo de Clubes. A equipe argentina segue na liderança do Grupo E por levar vantagem no saldo de gols sobre a Inter de Milão-ITA. Já a mexicana não depende só de si para avançar às oitavas de final. O primeiro tempo foi marcado por um jogo travado, principalmente no setor central do campo. Foram 21 infrações e três cartões amarelos distribuídos. O Monterrey dominou a posse de bola com 59% e começou mais perigoso: logo aos 5 minutos, Arteaga finalizou com perigo, e aos 13, Canales arriscou um chute forte. Depois disso, a partida caiu de ritmo, com poucas jogadas trabalhadas, muitos desarmes e falta de fluidez […]

Why Jon Jones, Dana White and UFC deserve equal blame for the failed Tom Aspinall fight and ensuing retirement
If there has been one thing consistent about Jon Jones' largely inactive run as the second-longest reigning heavyweight champion in UFC history, it's that the G.O.A.T. in mixed martial arts has wanted nothing to do with fighting interim titleholder Tom Aspinall. It only took until today, some 840 days after Jones first became a two-division champion by defeating Cyril Gane for the vacant heavyweight title, for UFC president/CEO Dana White to publicly believe him. In one of the most disappointing moments in UFC's illustrious history of forcing its best fighters to fight one another due to the promotion's monopolistic control of the industry, White announced Saturday that the 37-year-old Jones has informed him of his decision to retire despite record money on the table for a unification fight against Aspinall that was more than two years in the making. Jon Jones retires: […]

Rangers place 1B Jake Burger (oblique) on 10-day injured list
May 25, 2025; Chicago, Illinois, USA; Texas Rangers first baseman Jake Burger (21) rounds the bases after hitting a two-run home run against the Chicago White Sox during the second inning at Rate Field. Mandatory Credit: Kamil Krzaczynski-Imagn Images The Texas Rangers placed first baseman Jake Burger on the 10-day injured list on Saturday because of a left oblique strain. In a corresponding move, the Rangers recalled rookie first baseman Justin Foscue from Triple-A Round Rock. Burger, 29, felt tightness on his left side on a swinging strikeout in the seventh inning of the Rangers' 6-2 win in Pittsburgh on Friday night. "I was hopeful going into the scan that it was just some sort of cramp kind of thing," Burger said Saturday. "I think, for me, I've dealt with this in the past, and it's been pretty quick. My […]
