May 6, 2025; Chicago, Illinois, USA; San Francisco Giants pitcher Justin Verlander (35) delivers against the Chicago Cubs during the first inning at Wrigley Field. Mandatory Credit: Matt Marton-Imagn Images Jung Hoo Lee belted a two-run homer in the third inning and added an RBI single during a nine-run 11th, lifting the visiting San Francisco Giants to a 14-5 victory over the Chicago Cubs on Tuesday.
Matt Chapman added a two-run single in the 11th to join Lee with a three-hit performance. Heliot Ramos had four hits, two RBIs and two runs for the Giants, who squandered a two-run lead in the ninth inning.
San Francisco, however, ignited the fireworks in the 11th.
Patrick Bailey’s single to center off Ryan Pressly (2-2) plated Christian Koss, and Brett Wisely’s bunt allowed Ramos to give San Francisco a 7-5 lead. Pressly walked his next batter before hitting Willy Adames with a pitch to drive in another run.
Singles by Lee, Chapman and Wilmer Flores extended the Giants’ advantage to 12-5. Ramos’ RBI double and Bailey’s sacrifice fly capped the scoring against Pressly, who allowed nine runs (eight earned) on five hits without getting an out.
Erik Miller (2-0), who allowed Kyle Tucker’s game-tying RBI single with two outs in the ninth inning, permitted one hit in 1 1/3 scoreless innings.
The Giants erupted for 16 hits en route to their fourth win in five games.
Signed to a one-year, $15 million contract, Justin Verlander allowed just three runs on five hits in five innings and was in line to pick up his first win of the season. Ryan Walker, however, issued two walks and an RBI single to Justin Turner in the ninth before Miller surrendered an RBI single to Tucker.
Chicago’s Miguel Amaya launched a two-run homer in the third inning and Jon Berti had an RBI single in the fifth.
San Francisco scratched in a pair of runs in the second inning before doubling the advantage in the third, courtesy of Lee depositing a 2-1 fastball from Colin Rea over the wall in right field. Lee’s homer was his fourth of the season and first since he went deep on two occasions against the New York Yankees on April 13.
Chicago halved the deficit on Amaya’s third homer of the season before the teams traded runs.

Cicinho indica “sorte” de Abel Ferreira na vitória do Palmeiras na Libertadores
Abel Ferreira, treinador do Palmeiras (Cesar Greco/Palmeiras) Na noite de ontem (07), o Palmeiras foi ao Paraguai enfrentar o Cerro Porteño e venceu por 2 a 0, com gols de Estêvão e Vitor Roque, que marcou pelo segundo jogo consecutivo. Com isso, o Verdão já garantiu a sua classificação ao mata-mata da Libertadores. Autor de um belo gol, o camisa 9 palmeirense havia perdido uma chance clara no primeiro tempo, chutando em cima do goleiro tendo o gol inteiro livre, além da possibilidade de tocar para Estêvão, que sairia sem goleiro.

Why changing managers won’t fix the Pirates’ bigger problems
Rowan Kavner MLB Writer <!--> --> Off to the same miserable record they had through 38 games five years ago, in what was supposed to represent the start of a rebuild in Pittsburgh, the Pirates tossed manager Derek Shelton overboard on Thursday. At the end of the 2019 season, new general manager Ben Cherington tabbed Shelton as the skipper to right the ship of a Pirates team that had not been to the playoffs since 2015. In year one under the new regime, Pittsburgh began the COVID-shortened 2020 season 12-26 and finished it 19-41. Five seasons later, in the midst of another 12-26 start, with the Pirates still in search of their first winning season since 2018 after finishing no better than fourth place since the front-office shakeup, they relieved Shelton of his duties. The decision was understandable. ADVERTISEMENT <!-->Taking over for Clint Hurdle […]
FCS heading toward 12-game regular-season schedule starting in 2026
FCS programs are one step from increasing their regular-season football schedule in 2026 after the NCAA FCS oversight committee approved a recommendation for an annual 12-game campaign.The recommendation provides for a standard 13-week schedule, which opens on the final Thursday in August each year.AdvertisementCurrently, FCS programs’ schedules fluctuate on the calendar. In years when 12 weeks separate Labor Day weekend from the FCS playoff selection show — which airs the Sunday before Thanksgiving — FCS teams play 11 games. When Labor Day weekend is 13 weeks before the selection show, the season consists of 12 games.The committee cited the consistency of programs playing the same number of regular-season contests as FBS participants as a reason for the 12-game approval. FBS teams operated with the same calendar-dependent schedule until 2006, when a 12-game schedule went into effect.“Standardizing the start date and […]
Talking to ‘The Pope’ about the Pope, Caleb Williams, Ben Johnson and White Sox
After the white smoke cleared and the world found out that the Pope is not only from the United States but also — and more importantly — from Chicago, there were naturally a lot of important questions.Is the South Side native a White Sox fan or a Cubs fan? Does he prefer deep dish or tavern-style pizza? Does he have thoughts about Caleb Williams?AdvertisementLet’s start there with Williams.“I am excited about (Williams),” The Pope told me in an exclusive phone conversation Thursday afternoon. “I definitely am. I just felt like the Bears haven’t put anybody around him. It’s a problem. You know he had no line at all. He was running for his life all the time.”Thoughts on new Bears coach Ben Johnson, Pope?“It seems like they should have a really good coach right now,” he said. “I’m definitely excited […]
Can Nick Saban and a Texas billionaire fix college sports? What we know about their vision
Cody Campbell (X) Dramatic changes in college sports have drawn the attention of the White House, and two prominent men from the world of college football are set to co-chair President Donald Trump's commission on college athletics—an effort to get the train back on the tracks amid mounting issues in the collegiate model.It's too early to know how former Alabama coach Nick Saban and Texas billionaire businessman Cody Campbell will co-lead the commission and who will be on it. As Texas Senator Ted Cruz's NIL legislative effort launched in 2023 languishes and administrators still await the House settlement's final approval, patience has long run thin for substantive change in college athletics. One power conference official told CBS Sports they didn't need any more college sports insiders in a group like this; rather, they wished for outsiders who can bring fresh […]
