Brad Marchand’s mid-game DQ Blizzard, Matthew Tkachuk’s revenge and more Hurricanes-Panthers notes
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — We’re going to take this off-day opportunity to be the bearers of bad news about a situation that, conservatively, is one of the five most interesting things to take place in the NHL’s Eastern Conference final this year.It is highly unlikely that Florida Panthers winger Brad Marchand was actually eating a Dairy Queen Blizzard during the second intermission of his team’s 6-2 win over the Carolina Hurricanes in Game 3 on Saturday.AdvertisementAfter the game, Marchand was talking to Sportsnet’s Kyle Bukauskas about Florida’s off-day trip in Raleigh, N.C., to, yes, Dairy Queen. At the end of the interview, Sportsnet cut to a split-screen of Marchand eating something with a spoon in the locker room ahead of the third period.Neither what he is eating nor the vessel he is eating it from is visible.

Padres top starter Michael King lands on injured list with shoulder inflammation
A day after scratching Michael King from a scheduled start in what they described as a precautionary move, the San Diego Padres placed the right-hander on the 15-day injured list with inflammation in his throwing shoulder.King, the Padres’ Opening Day starter and arguably the best starter in the upcoming free-agent class, had not been on the injured list since he fractured his right elbow with the New York Yankees in 2022. His latest IL stint is retroactive to May 22, meaning he could return as soon as June 6.AdvertisementThe Padres scratched King from Saturday’s game against the Atlanta Braves, citing shoulder stiffness. Manager Mike Shildt later said King “felt like he slept on (the shoulder) wrong.”“We could’ve pushed today for him to go out and take the ball,” Shildt told the media after an emergency bullpen game ended in a […]
Alex Palou wins Indianapolis 500 for first time, holding off Marcus Ericsson
INDIANAPOLIS — Alex Palou has dominated IndyCar lately, but he was missing one big thing: The Indianapolis 500.Consider that box checked.Palou and Chip Ganassi Racing continued their winning ways in 2025 by racing to victory in the Indy 500, marking Palou’s first career oval win. The remarkable Palou became the first driver since A.J. Foyt in 1979 to win five of the first six races of the season, and he has won three of the last four championships — including two in a row.Advertisement“I cannot believe it. What an amazing day. What an amazing race,” Palou said.Palou had been open about the hole in his resume, which was not only Indy but oval tracks in general. He couldn’t truly be considered one of the greats without it.“I want to win at an oval,” Palou said this week. “Trust me, I’m […]
Alex Palou wins 2025 Indianapolis 500 for fifth win in season’s first six races
Alex Palou continued his incredibly dominant IndyCar Series season with his first Indianapolis 500 win.Palou passed Marcus Ericsson entering Turn 1 with 14 laps to go and held off Ericsson, David Malukas and Pato O’Ward the rest of the way. Ericsson lifted into the corner behind two lapped cars when Palou passed him and left a gap for the two-time IndyCar champion.The victory is Palou’s fifth in six races in 2025. After winning the 2023 and 2024 IndyCar titles, Palou is even better in 2025. The only race of the season he didn’t win was the Long Beach Grand Prix. And Palou was second to Kyle Kirkwood in that event.
Red Sox roster takeaways: Team mixing and matching with rookie-heavy lineup
BOSTON — After a long few days at the ballpark this weekend, the Boston Red Sox had optional infield work prior to Sunday’s game. In a nearly empty ballpark two hours before first pitch, two players took grounders with infield coach José Flores: Marcelo Mayer and Kristian Campbell. Neither player was set up as his natural position. Flores hit ground balls to Mayer at third base as Mayer fired across the diamond to Campbell at first base.AdvertisementSuch is the team’s current reality, as they look to make all the different parts fit together while missing two of their top infielders, Alex Bregman and Triston Casas.During the drills, Mayer, who’d played just six professional games at third base in Double A and Triple A before his big-league debut at the hot corner on Saturday, short-hopped a throw to Campbell, who’s yet […]
