Apr 28, 2025; Washington, District of Columbia, USA; New York Mets third base Mark Vientos (27) celebrates with teammates in the dugout after hitting a three run home run against the Washington Nationals during the ninth inning at Nationals Park.

New York piled on late with Nimmo hitting his three-run shot in the sixth, mashing his grand slam in the seventh and adding a two-run double in the eighth. He began the day with four homers and 12 RBIs.
Mets starter Griffin Canning (4-1) went five scoreless innings, allowing four hits. Jose Urena pitched the final three innings for his first save.

Athletics 2, Rangers 1
Tyler Soderstrom’s two-run double in the fifth inning was all the visiting Athletics needed to defeat anemic Texas in the opener of a four-game series at Arlington, Texas.
JP Sears (4-2) and three A’s relievers held the Texas offense at bay. Sears tossed 5 2/3 innings of one-run ball, permitting five hits and no walks while striking out seven.

Giannis Antetokounmpo gets into heated confrontation with Tyrese Haliburton’s dad after Pacers eliminate Bucks
Getty Images Giannis Antetokounmpo just lost what might wind up being his final game as a member of the Milwaukee Bucks in utterly heartbreaking fashion. Despite finishing Game 5 against the Indiana Pacers with 30 points, 20 rebounds and 13 assists, the Bucks blew leads at the end of both regulation and overtime to get eliminated in the first round of the postseason. A wide-open dunk by Tyrese Haliburton sent the game to overtime, and then Gary Trent Jr. fumbled a pass out of bounds to set Haliburton up for a game-winning layup as the Pacers pulled out an improbable 119-118 victory.The common thread in this collapse, of course, was the exceptional play of Haliburton for Indiana. Haliburton has been quite vocal throughout the series, getting into a confrontation with Damian Liilard on the bench in Game 1. "We don't have to […]

NEW YORK — J.B.
