Milnes five-for seals innings win; lifts Yorkshire out of bottom two

Yorkshire 545 for 9 dec (Revis 152*, Lyth 115, Wharton 85) beat Sussex 222 (Lamb 48, Coles 47, White 3-25) and 195 (Hughes 57, Hudson-Prentice 52, Ibrahim 51, Milnes 5-31) by an innings and 128 runsYorkshire completed an innings and 128-run victory over Sussex midway through the fourth afternoon at Scarborough to hoist themselves out of the bottom two places in Division One, in turn dragging their visitors into the Rothesay County Championship relegation fight.Sussex started the final day of this 11th-round clash on 115 for three in their second innings, trailing by 208.On a deteriorating North Marine Road surface, their fate was obvious inside the day’s opening 20 minutes as they lost three wickets for the addition of two runs in the opening 26 balls, teetering on 117 for six.So it proved, even though their resistance through to mid-afternoon was impressive. They were bowled out for 195, including five for 31 from 16.4 overs for new-ball seamer Matt Milnes – his first five-for in the Championship since September 2021 following injury. Fynn Hudson-Prentice finished 52 not out off 156 balls.Yorkshire’s third win yielded 22 points, Sussex’s fourth defeat handing them only two.The gap between the two sides is now just a solitary point ahead of the September run-in. The pair meet again at Hove midway through next month, one of three remaining games.The White Rose have been replaced in ninth place in the table – second-bottom – by Durham, who were beaten at home by Surrey this week. The gap between the two is 12 points.Yorkshire would even go above Essex should their game with Warwickshire at Chelmsford finish drawn.In their last three games, Yorkshire not only face Sussex but Durham as well. They meet at Headingley in the final match of 2025.The hosts made the ideal start to the day.Danial Ibrahim and Daniel Hughes fell, the two not out batters overnight, for 51 and 57 respectively added to the departure of captain John Simpson for a duck.Milnes claimed the first two. Ibrahim was caught low down at second slip by Adam Lyth before Hughes was bowled playing back to one which kept low and scooted through.Simpson was then bowled as he tried to leave alone one angled in from Milnes’ new-ball partner Jack White.Danny Lamb was next to go, caught behind off Will Sutherland’s seam – 143 for seven.Lamb fell chasing a wide ball having added 26 with fellow all-rounder Hudson-Prentice. Sussex needed much, much more.Sussex reached lunch at 166 for seven, Hudson-Prentice with 32.He played handsomely down the ground off seam, even using his feet against White on couple of occasion to find the boundary wide of mid-on.Hudson-Prentice was excellent in becoming Sussex’s third half-centurion of the innings, this coming off 138 balls. By the time he got there midway through the afternoon, Sussex were 188 for seven with 48 overs remaining in the day.He shared 47 for the eighth wicket with Jack Carson, who was the eighth man to fall when caught by diving Lyth at slip low down to his right – 191 for eight.Replays suggest Carson was unfortunate to be given out, confirming the initial impression given by the batter stomping off the field.Things happened quickly from there, with Sussex falling almost 44 overs short of survival.This was Milnes’ first five-wicket haul for Yorkshire as he comes to the end of his third year with the club. His last was for Kent. He has since suffered a nightmare with multiple back stress fractures.But he was excellent here, polishing things off by getting Grinder Sandhu caught at point and then Henry Crocombe caught behind with a beauty for a golden duck.In all, Milnes claimed seven wickets in the match.

Erling Haaland celebrates win with massive cheeseburger order after latest brace puts Norway on brink of World Cup qualification

Erling Haaland celebrated firing Norway to the brink of 2026 World Cup qualification by making a huge order of cheeseburgers. During the injury-enforced absence of Martin Odegaard, Manchester City striker Haaland is currently captain of his country. One of his responsibilities in that role is ensuring that jubilant team-mates get to dine out on notable performances.

  • Norway closing in on first World Cup appearance since 1998

    One of those has seen Norway close in on a place at next summer’s World Cup. They have not graced that event since 1998 – making only one European Championship since then. That barren run on the major tournament front is about to be brought to a close.

    Haaland has played a leading role in firing his nation towards FIFA’s flagship event. The 25-year-old frontman continues to maintain remarkable individual standards, with few opponents able to live with him during the 2025-26 campaign.

  • Haaland reaches 30 goals through 19 appearances

    Another brace was recorded for Norway as they swept aside Estonia 4-1 in their latest qualification fixture. That deadly double has taken Haaland onto 30 goals for the campaign across 19 outings for club and country.

    He registered five efforts in an 11-1 mauling of Moldova back in September, before netting a hat-trick against Israel in October. Haaland has also hit 19 goals for City through 11 appearances – with 14 of those strikes coming in Premier League action.

    Haaland has achieved plenty at club level – with Champions League glory forming part of a Treble triumph with City in 2022-23 – but has been left waiting on something to celebrate on the international stage.

    Barring a stunning collapse against Italy on Sunday, Haaland is now counting down the days to a World Cup finals appearance. Fans sang “Norway is going to the World Cup” throughout their comfortable victory over Estonia.

  • Fast food celebration: Haaland orders huge burger haul

    After that contest came to an end, Haaland made a point of visiting a local restaurant. He is said to have ordered 60-70 cheeseburgers, with cameras – including his own team that continue to produce content for his YouTube channel – catching him hauling several bags of fast food back to the Norway camp.

    Sande Berge, who also plays his club football in England for Fulham, told when being made aware of Haaland’s celebratory burger haul: "It’s a strong performance from the captain." National team coach Stale Solbakken said: "Yes, that's what it is tonight, then."

    Norwegian fans heeded calls to stay off the pitch at the end of a nerve-wrecking meeting with Estonia, allowing players and supporters to celebrate together as confetti rained down on the playing surface.

    Nils Johan Semb believes that Norway can be competitive at the 2026 World Cup, with there enough talent at their disposal to suggest that a positive impact can be made in the United States, Canada and Mexico. He said: "We have broken a barrier. It is so important that it is this good generation here that has done it. There is so much quality in the team."

    Lewandowski goal record in sight for prolific Haaland

    Talismanic frontman Haaland has been billed in his homeland as "the world’s best footballer right now". He is considered to be "completely unstoppable" at present, with his impressive goal return helping to highlight as much.

    Norway still have Arsenal midfielder Odegaard to come back into the fold, once he has shaken off a series of unfortunate injuries, with the classy playmaker ready to take the armband from Haaland.

    Solbakken’s side are due at San Siro in Milan on Sunday for a meeting with Italy. With maximum points being taken from seven games so far, only the heaviest of defeats will see Norway slip into the play-off places. Their goal difference is currently 17 better than the Azzurri.

    Haaland could make more history, or at least match another entry in the record books, when lining up against Italian opposition. He has registered 14 goals across Norway’s qualification bid. The biggest haul in any single campaign is 16, with prolific Polish frontman Robert Lewandowski achieving that feat en route to the 2018 finals.

Blue Jays Make George Springer Lineup Decision for World Series Game 4 After Injury

After being considered "hour-to-hour" by coach John Schneider on Tuesday (via MLB reporter Keegan Matheson), the Blue Jays revealed outfielder George Springer's status for Game 4 just under two hours before the first pitch vs. the Dodgers.

Springer was not included in Toronto's initial lineup vs. Los Angeles. The Blue Jays star left Monday night's marathon 18-inning game in the seventh inning, hours before the game actually ended.

It was determined Springer left with right side discomfort, per MLB, and that he would be undergoing an MRI to learn the severity of the injury. Springer left the field after fouling off a pitch from Dodgers reliever Justin Wrobleski in the top of the seventh inning and did not return.

Springer normally leads off for the Blue Jays, so in his absence, Nathan Lukes will take the leadoff spot for Toronto in an important Game 4. The Dodgers now hold a 2–1 lead over the Blue Jays after the 6–5 win on Monday night. The Blue Jays will need to win on Tuesday night to even out the series and avoid being on the brink of losing.

Through the postseason thus far, Springer has registered 14 hits, 13 runs and four home runs, including a three-run homer that helped the Blue Jays win the ALCS over the Mariners in Game 7. He's averaged .246/.323/.561 through 14 postseason games.

Here Are the Sports Figures Who Received Votes in New York’s Mayoral Election

Zohran Mamdani may have won New York City’s mayoral election on Nov. 4, but it was not for a lack of trying on the part of … his city’s athletes?

Here, per Spencer Gustafson of WPIX-TV and Gary Phillips of the , are the athletes who received at least one write-in vote to become mayor of New York in Jan. 2026. The list includes the living and the dead, as well as representatives of three different sports.

Manny Machado Deserves to Be Considered Both a Superstar and a Grinder

Manny Machado's legacy is already secured, and it looks far different than it did a few years ago.

On Monday night, Machado notched his 2,000th career hit with a fourth-inning single against Arizona Diamondbacks pitcher Zac Gallen. In doing so, the seven-time All-Star became the 12th player in major league history to reach 2,000 hits and have 350 home runs through his age-32 season. Hank Aaron, Jimmy Foxx, Lou Gehrig, Ken Griffey Jr., Mickey Mantle, Willie Mays, Mel Ott and Frank Robinson accomplished the feat and are all in the Hall of Fame. The other three to do it are Miguel Cabrera, Albert Pujols and Alex Rodriguez.

The takeaway? Manny Machado will be a first-ballot Hall of Famer.

Once a controversial figure, Machado has transformed himself into one of baseball's most consistent stars. He averages 32 home runs per 162 games despite never crossing the 40-homer threshold in a season, and with 357 career home runs after launching one in the eighth inning Monday, he has a decent shot at joining the 500-homer club one day. Beyond his immense talent, he has earned the respect of those around him for one simple reason: he shows up every day.

Machado isn't what you picture when thinking of a "grinder." He has garnered criticism in the past for not giving it his all on every play, and even once said in 2018, “I'm not the type of player that's going to be 'Johnny Hustle.’” His graceful approach both at the plate and in the field can make everything look easy. But his effort level has not been questioned in recent years, and it’s worth considering that his willingness to conserve his energy when the time is right has contributed to his remarkable ability to stay on the field.

During his 14-year MLB career, Machado, who turned 33 on Sunday, has played 150 or more games nine times, and he played in all 60 during the COVID-shortened 2020 campaign. Since 2015, only Paul Goldschmidt has played more games (1,551) than Machado's 1,536. He has started all 90 of San Diego's games this season, playing third base in 82 of them.

Machado has been named All-MLB three times since the honor was established in 2019. He has four top-five MVP finishes—including being runner-up in 2022—two Gold Gloves, a Platinum Glove and two Silver Sluggers. Since breaking into the big leagues in 2012, he's fourth in hits (2,001), fifth in home runs (357), fourth in RBIs (1,102), and fifth in WAR (60.3). The No. 3 pick in the 2010 MLB draft has always oozed talent, but his ability to show up every day separates him from his peers.

Not only does Machado rarely take games off for rest—he has remained remarkably healthy. On May 19, 2023, he was placed on the injured list due to a fracture in his left hand when then-Kansas City Royals righty Brad Keller hit him with a pitch. That was Machado's first IL stint in eight years. He missed 17 days and hasn't been on the shelf since.

That consistency has rubbed off on his Padres teammates. Even the fellow superstar whose locker sits next to Machado has been inspired by the way he approaches the game.

"Man, you know it's really hard, but it's part of what we have to do and what we signed up for, and it's part of the grind," Fernando Tatis Jr. told recently. "And obviously doing it right next to a guy like Manny is really special because the guy shows up every single day trying to win a ballgame in different ways. You learn from that and you just want to do the same thing."

Padres manager Mike Shildt has been with the franchise since 2022, first as a consultant before taking over as skipper prior to the 2024 campaign. He has seen firsthand what Machado brings to the table, not only with his consistency, but his leadership.

"From a clubhouse standpoint, when you have a guy that shows up, plays every day, performs every day—especially in streaks where you’re going and playing a lot of games—being able to grind and get after it is a really good trait that shows your teammates how and models what this looks like to be a contributing professional player on a winning team," Shildt says. "So those are all the things that Manny brings to the table, and he’s really taking the next steps into being that appropriate vocal leader. But it’s really most of his actions are led by just that, as actions."

Machado's reputation has changed dramatically from being known for some questionable on-field antics. He drew ire in April 2017 when, as a member of the Baltimore Orioles, he slid late into Boston Red Sox star Dustin Pedroia. The former MVP second baseman suffered a knee injury and was never the same. While opinion was split on whether it was a dirty play, the incident was a mark against Machado's reputation.

It took another hit in October 2018 when, as a member of the Dodgers, Machado spiked Milwaukee Brewers first baseman Jesus Aguilar. He claimed the incident was accidental, but the Brewers were furious.

In 2019, a few months after the Aguilar incident, the Padres made a 10-year, $300 million bet that Machado could become the face of a moribund franchise. At the same time, Machado made a bet that the Padres would do what it takes to compete at the highest level. Both parties have lived up to their end of the bargain—something implicitly acknowledged when they committed to each other again with an 11-year, $350 million extension in February ’23.

Since arriving in San Diego, Machado has taken over as the face of the franchise and proven himself to be a leader. He has been at the center of turning the Padres into a consistent contender after more than a decade of futility. The controversies of his youth are largely behind him as he has rounded into a respected veteran presence who comes to the ballpark and insists he's in the lineup every day.

Despite his focus on getting the Padres back to the postseason in 2025, Machado recently allowed himself to think about the special milestones he was close to eclipsing.

"It's fun, you know, just hearing those numbers, they're racking up," Machado says. "It's pretty amazing. It's pretty hard to get one hit in the big leagues, let alone reaching some pretty historical numbers, so it's pretty exciting."

In the same media scrum, Machado was asked about the Padres' recent stretch of 26 games in 27 days, each of which he started. “I'm exhausted,” he admitted. “I'm ready for the off day tomorrow."

He doesn't get many of those. And that's what makes him special.

Chelsea now "crazy" about signing "wonderful" assist king

Chelsea are now “crazy” about signing RB Leipzig midfielder Assan Ouedraogo, but they will have to do battle for his signature with one of their Premier League rivals.

Courtesy of a 2-0 victory against Burnley at Turf Moor on Saturday, the Blues have now moved up to second in the Premier League table, but Gary Neville believes they are still some way off being genuine contenders for the title.

The Sky Sports pundit said: “They’ve got a lot of young players, spent a fortune, it’s probably not happening as quickly as they want,(and) I don’t think they’re anywhere near a team that can win the league to be honest. When I look at them, they look well short in a number of areas.”

As pointed out by Neville, the Blues have relied on youngsters a lot in the BlueCo era, breaking the record for the youngest average starting XI in the Premier League last season.

However, the west Londoners are yet to alter their recruitment policy, and they have now joined the race for another young midfielder.

Chelsea "crazy" about signing Assan Ouedraogo

In a new update from Sky Sports reporter Florian Plettenberg on X, it has been revealed that Chelsea are one of the Premier League clubs “crazy” about signing RB Leipzig midfielder Ouedraogo, alongside Man United.

Both English sides are now scouting the 19-year-old, who remains under contract at the Bundesliga club until 2029, and his main ambition is to secure a place in Germany’s 2026 World Cup squad.

The central midfielder remains under contract until 2029, and there is no release clause, meaning it is unclear how much the Blues will have to pay for the youngster, who is being targeted for next summer.

The German starlet may stand a chance of going to the World Cup next year, considering he impressed on his debut for his country, scoring in a 6-0 victory against Slovakia in the recent international break.

Not only that, but the Leipzig star would be a versatile option for Julian Nagelsmann, given that he is capable of playing in five positions, namely on both wings, central midfield, attacking midfield and even centre-forward.

The former Schalke man is off to an impressive start to the season in the Bundesliga, chipping in with three goals and three assists in 11 outings, and he has performed very well on some key attacking metrics over the past year.

Líder! Aposte R$ 100 e receba R$ 154 caso o Verdão vença o San Lorenzo pela Libertadores

Apesar de se apresentar à Seleção Brasileira apenas no dia 3 de junho, segunda-feira, para a disputada da Copa América, Endrick não estará à disposição de Abel Ferreira para o duelo contra o Criciúma, no sábado (2).

Isso porque o atacante recebeu o terceiro cartão amarelo contra o Athletico, o último antes da paralisação do Brasileirão em razão da enchentes no Rio Grande do Sul, e cumpre suspensão automática.

Juan Soto Addresses Pete Alonso’s Future With Mets As Slugger Hits Free Agency

Juan Soto would like to see Pete Alonso back in a Mets uniform next season.

Speaking with reporters at the MLB Awards in Las Vegas, Soto addressed the fact that Alonso is hitting free agency this offseason after opting out of a one-year, $24 million contract option with the Mets.

“I hope nothing but the best and I’m excited to see where he’s going to end up,” Soto said [via the Mike Puma]. “He’s one of the best power hitters in this generation. I really enjoyed my moment with him in a Mets uniform and I hope we can have more times to come.

“We can have fun together.”

Soto and Alonso did indeed have fun in the lineup in their first season together in New York. Soto shook off a slow start to the 2025 campaign and finished the year batting .263/.396/.525 with 43 homers, 105 RBIs and a career-high 38 stolen bases.

Alonso played all 162 games for a second straight year and batted .272/.347/.524 with a career-high 41 doubles and 38 home runs. He ranked in the top five percent of all MLB hitters in average exit velocity, barrel percentage and hard-hit percentage.

Alonso was also a free agent last offseason. When he didn’t find the long-term contract he was looking for on the open market, he signed a two-year, $54 million contract to return to the Mets with the aim to perform well, opt out of ‘25 and hit free agency again. One year later, MLB Trade Rumors predicts he’ll sign a four-year contract worth $110 million this offseason.

RELATED: Pete Alonso Destinations: Best Landing Spots for Mets Star in Free Agency

The Mets and their $342 million payroll missed out on a playoff berth by one game this past season thanks in large part to an eight-game losing streak in September. Soto is looking to right that wrong in 2026, and he’s hoping Alonso will be back in the heart of the Mets’ order along with him.
