Bo Bichette homered, Kevin Gausman struck out nine in 5 2/3 innings and the Toronto Blue Jays defeated the visiting Los Angeles Angels 3-2 on Sunday afternoon.

The Blue Jays swept the three-game series to extend their season-best winning streak to eight games.

Mike Trout hit a solo home run for the Angels, who stranded 12 runners. Taylor Ward added three hits, a walk, an RBI and a stolen base.

Trout homered to right against Gausman on a fastball with two outs in the first.

The Angels loaded the bases in the fourth on a single, a walk and an error before Gustavo Campero bounced back to Gausman to start an inning-ending, home-to-first double play.

Bichette atoned for his error in the top of the inning by driving an 0-1 changeup from Tyler Anderson (2-6) off the facing of the second deck for a home run to lead off the home fourth. Toronto added a run in the inning when Myles Straw doubled and scored on Joey Loperfido’s single to right. Loperfido was thrown out after rounding first base.

The Angels tied the game in the fifth. Chad Stevens led off with a single, Trout walked with two outs and Ward hit an RBI single to right.

Ryan Burr (1-0), activated from the injured list Sunday, replaced Gausman with a runner at first and two outs in the sixth. He gave up a single before getting Nolan Schanuel to fly out. Gausman allowed two runs, seven hits and three walks.

Bichette led off the home sixth with a walk and took third on Alejandro Kirk’s flare single to left. Davis Schneider hit an RBI single to left for Toronto’s go-ahead run.

Brock Burke replaced Anderson, who allowed three runs, eight hits and two walks with two strikeouts. Burke ended the threat with a double-play grounder and a groundout.

Burr pitched around a walk and a stolen base with three strikeouts in the seventh.

Toronto closer Jeff Hoffman pitched a perfect ninth with the help of two line-drive outs to earn his 22nd save.

LeBron James’ ‘The Decision,’ 15 years later: How one night redrew the NBA map

Fifteen years ago this week, the NBA changed forever. In a July 8 televised ESPN special dubbed "The Decision," LeBron James declared that he was taking his talents to South Beach to join Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh with the Miami Heat.  The announcement LeBron delivered during The Decision sent shockwaves through the NBA, reshaping not only the next few seasons but the entire landscape of professional basketball for the decade and a half that followed. A single choice about where he would take the next stage of his career triggered a chain reaction that rippled across the league and beyond. Those aftershocks reverberated both on the court and off it, touching nearly every player, team, executive and franchise—and influencing the broader culture of sports itself. On the 15th anniversary of one of the most consequential moments in sports history, we're […]

Wimbledon 2025 live updates: Day 8 scores and results as Djokovic wins second set, Shelton next

On the day British women’s player Sonay Kartal played her first match on Centre Court, the curators down at the Wimbledon Lawn Tennis Museum were eyeing up her Adidas kit for their collection. A collection which has 40,000 items in it, including 1,000 historic rackets, some of which date back to the 1870s. Senior curation Emma Traherne told The Athletic: “Every year we collect between 100 and 200 objects just from the Championships.”Coco Gauff’s bespoke New Balance dress, which she wore for her first-round defeat to Dayana Yastremska, is among the items to have caught their eye this year.“This is like our Super Bowl,” Anna Boonstra, an American fashion historian and curator working at the museum, said.Downstairs among the old rackets, towels and tennis crockery, all stored in a temperature-controlled room, sits a collection of artwork and posters.

Bradley Beal contract buyout explainer: Why Suns want to move on, plus landing spots for veteran scorer

The Phoenix Suns thought they'd built a championship team when they traded for Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal to pair with Devin Booker. Two years and zero playoff wins later, the Suns are dismantling that team. The process began in June, when they traded Durant to the Houston Rockets. It is seemingly continuing now, with reports indicating that they are in the process of buying out the remainder of Beal's max contract.There's a key difference between those two moves, though. The Durant trade brought assets back. Opinions are mixed on Jalen Green, Dillon Brooks and Khaman Maluach, but they represent real players who will contribute to Phoenix's rebuilding efforts next season. A buyout for Beal, at least in isolation, does not. They are preparing to cut him and deal with an enormous amount of dead money on their books just […]

NHL zakázala Ovečkinovi poskytovat v Rusku rozhovory

„Je to kvůli rozhodnutí NHL - liga o něm natáčí velký film. Výjimky jsou pouze pro sponzory, se kterými má Ovečkin smlouvy, a také pro formát tiskových konferencí,“ uvádí ruský server.Ovečkin, který v nedávno skončené sezoně NHL překonal historický rekord Waynea Gretzkého v počtu gólů, se v pondělí vrátil do Ruska z dovolené v Turecku. V neděli se v Moskvě zúčastní exhibičního zápasu ruských hokejových hvězd z NHL proti těm z KHL. Na začátku září pak odletí do Spojených států na přípravu pro nadcházející ročník.„Nevidím tam žádné politické pozadí, pokud je to tak, že NHL natáčí film o Ovečkinovi a existují určitá omezení pro poskytování rozhovorů. Není to nic neobvyklého ani překvapivého,“ komentoval rozhodnutí NHL ruský poslanec Dmitrij Sviščev.
