Posted on 11/12/17 by jacobismith

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. (AP) — Miami is getting championship rings when this season is over. Maybe, just maybe, the biggest kind. The Hurricanes sent two very clear messages to the College Football Playoff committee Saturday night — that they’re worthy of being a national title contender and that Notre Dame is not. Travis Homer ran … Continue reading →

Posted on 11/01/17 by jacobismith

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Joc Pederson sliced a drive over the left-field wall, pounded his chest and danced around the bases , taking as many twists and turns as this World Series itself. Of course, the Los Angeles Dodgers forced the Houston Astros to Game 7. Chris Taylor hit a tying double off Justin Verlander during a two-run rally … Continue reading →

Kopitar, Doughty lead Kings to 3-2 victory over Islanders

Posted on 10/16/17 by jacobismith

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Second-string goalie is one of the toughest jobs in hockey. Long lulls between starts, constant rust, trying to stay sharp in practice. Los Angeles called on its new backup for the first time this season Sunday night and Darcy Kuemper responded just as the Kings had hoped. Kuemper stopped 23 shots … Continue reading →

Detroit’s Boyd falls an out short of no-hitter

Posted on 09/18/17 by jacobismith

DETROIT (AP) — Matthew Boyd showed little emotion when he lost a no-hit bit on Tim Anderson’s two-out, ninth-inning double. Boyd calmly retired Yoan Moncada to finish his first professional shutout in the Detroit Tigers’ 12-0 rout of the Chicago White Sox on Sunday. “There was nothing I could change at that point,” Boyd said. … Continue reading →

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Tough guy Jason Witten scored the game’s only touchdown while setting another franchise record for the Dallas Cowboys, perhaps the most prestigious yet.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — Winning at New England when the Patriots are coming off an historic Super Bowl victory is worth getting a little wild over. That’s not the Kansas City Chiefs’ style. Not even when a rookie is setting records. Kareem Hunt, after fumbling on his first NFL carry, scored three times and set … Continue reading →

OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — On a night when Mike Trout twice got thrown out at the plate, the Los Angeles Angels still found a way to score big in the standings. Pinch-hitter Ben Revere lined a go-ahead single in the 10th inning that diving left fielder Matt Joyce just missed, and the Angels took over … Continue reading →
