And that has pitted Nevada’s powerful tourism industry and labor unions against some progressive groups, raising concerns about ceding tax revenue when services such as public schools are funded below the national average. Proponents say the proposal could create new jobs, increase the state’s general revenue and further diversify the city’s casino and gaming-based economy. But skeptics warn of empty promises, citing growing evidence that minimal dollars generated from the new stadium would not otherwise be spent among nearby resorts and restaurants.

NASCAR – Kyle Busch holds off Denny Hamlin for NASCAR Cup Series win outside St. Louis Kyle Busch held off Denny Hamlin through a series of late restarts to win the chaotic, caution-filled NASCAR Cup Series race at World Wide Technology Raceway just outside of St. Louis in overtime Sunday. Bubba Wallace brought out the 11th and final yellow when his brake rotor let go with five laps remaining. Busch won a green-white-checkered shootout to the finish. There also were two red flags to go with a two-hour weather delay that caused the mid-afternoon race to finish in the twilight.

Golf – LPGA – NCAA champ Zhang becomes 1st LPGA Tour winner in pro debut in 72 years Two-time NCAA champion Rose Zhang became the first LPGA Tour winner in her pro debut in 72 years, capturing the Mizuho Americas Open with a par on the second hole in a playoff against Jennifer Kupcho on Sunday.

Soccer – Racist abuse of Vinícius Júnior highlights entrenched problem in soccer The vicious, relentless and high-profile racist insults directed at Brazilian soccer player Vinícius Júnior underscore an entrenched and decades-old issue that refuses to go away in the world’s most popular sport. It is a deeper societal problem that is manifested in soccer matches predominantly in Europe, but also all around the world, and has been amplified by the reach of social media. Federations have been slow and, in some cases unwilling, to use powers to sanction teams for the racist behavior of their fans. Players past and present worry racism is just an accepted part of soccer. Experts say more education and stronger punishments are required to combat racism.

Lillard tied Cleveland’s Donovan Mitchell for the most points in a game this season after Mitchell also scored 71 in a win over Chicago on Jan. 2. Lillard broke his own franchise mark of 61 points, which he’d done twice, on a 3-pointer with 4:42 left that also broke his career record for 3s in a game with 11. Lillard’s 13 3-pointers were one shy of the NBA record set by Golden State’s Klay Thompson in 2018. NHL – National Hockey League Tonight Detroit Red Wings at Ottawa Senators, 7:00 p.m. Chicago Blackhawks at Anaheim Ducks, 10:00 p.m. NHL – Beyond Kane, much uncertainty ahead of NHL trade deadline A handful of big moves already have been made well ahead of the NHL trade deadline. Plenty more are expected before Friday at 3 p.m. Eastern. Patrick Kane going from Chicago to the New York Rangers is the most highly anticipated deal on the docket. Aside from that, there is plenty of uncertainty and additional big-name players who could change places. Sunday alone brought Timo Meier getting traded from San Jose to New Jersey, Tanner Jeannot going from Nashville to Tampa Bay and Ivan Barbashev from St. Louis to Vegas. In the next few days, Arizona’s Jakob Chychrun is likely to be traded, too.

Waiting one more hole on Sunday was no problem. Kirk stuck his approach to the par-5 18th to tap-in range, and his birdie on the first hole of a playoff lifted him past Eric Cole for the victory at the Honda Classic on Sunday. Cole had a chance, playing his third shot from the sand to just outside of 10 feet for a birdie that would have extended the playoff. But it lipped out, and Kirk nudged his ball in for his fifth career win. Golf – LIV – Charles Howell III with 63 wins in Mexico for 1st LIV title Charles Howell III has won the LIV Golf opener in Mexico. This one finally felt easy. Howell shot a 63 in the final round at Mayakoba thanks to a hot putter. He wound up winning by four shots over Peter Uihlein. Howell picked up $4 million for the individual title and an additional $1 million for leading his team Crushers to a nine-shot win. Uihlein was still in range of Howell until the 12th hole. Uihlein had to hit three tee shots. Only two of them counted but it added to a triple bogey. He battled back for a 68. NASCAR – Kyle Busch gets 1st RCR victory in Fontana’s NASCAR farewell Kyle Busch sent Fontana off in style. The veteran stormed up from the back after an early penalty and earned his first victory for Richard Childress Racing while winning on this Southern California track for the fifth time. Busch held off Chase Elliott and Ross Chastain in NASCAR’s final race on the gloriously weathered asphalt at Auto Club Speedway, which will soon be demolished to make room for a half-mile track. Busch drove his Chevrolet to victory in only his second race with RCR, which scooped him up in December after his 15-year tenure with Joe Gibbs Racing ended.

There were two ties and three lead changes in the final 2:19, the last tie coming on Dickinson’s buzzer-beating 3-pointer. There were also two ties and three lead changes early in overtime before Michigan took control with a 10-0 run. Dug McDaniel finished with 20 points for the Wolverines. Dickinson added 10 rebounds for his fifth double-double in the last seven games. Connor Essegian had 24 points for Wisconsin.  Michigan wraps up the regular season with road games against Illinois on Thursday and No. 17 Indiana on Sunday.

Miles, who leads the Irish in several categories, was hurt with 2:35 remaining before halftime Sunday while diving for a loose ball.

Hailey Van Lith had 23 points for Louisville. Wisconsin 78, (12) Michigan 70 – Pospisilova scores 25, Wisconsin women top No. 12 Michigan Julie Pospisilova scored 25 points and Wisconsin made 12 of 14 free throws in the final two minutes to upset No. 12 Michigan 78-70 to close the Big Ten regular season.

Wisconsin had not beaten Michigan since 2014. Maddie Nolan hit five 3-pointers and scored 21 points for the Wolverines, who were without leading scorers Leigha Brown (18.2) and Laila Phelia (17.0), go into the league tournament as the five seed. NBA – National Basketball Association Yesterday Chicago 102, Washington Wizards 82 Bulls 102, Wizards 82 – DeRozan, LaVine combine for 56, Bulls zoom past Wizards DeMar DeRozan scored 29 points, Zach LaVine added 27 and the Chicago Bulls overcame their shooting woes from long range to beat the Washington Wizards 102-82.

Lillard tied Cleveland’s Donovan Mitchell for the most points in a game this season after Mitchell also scored 71 in a win over Chicago on Jan. 2. Lillard broke his own franchise mark of 61 points, which he’d done twice, on a 3-pointer with 4:42 left that also broke his career record for 3s in a game with 11. Lillard’s 13 3-pointers were one shy of the NBA record set by Golden State’s Klay Thompson in 2018. NHL – National Hockey League Tonight Detroit Red Wings at Ottawa Senators, 7:00 p.m. Chicago Blackhawks at Anaheim Ducks, 10:00 p.m. NHL – Beyond Kane, much uncertainty ahead of NHL trade deadline A handful of big moves already have been made well ahead of the NHL trade deadline. Plenty more are expected before Friday at 3 p.m. Eastern. Patrick Kane going from Chicago to the New York Rangers is the most highly anticipated deal on the docket. Aside from that, there is plenty of uncertainty and additional big-name players who could change places. Sunday alone brought Timo Meier getting traded from San Jose to New Jersey, Tanner Jeannot going from Nashville to Tampa Bay and Ivan Barbashev from St. Louis to Vegas. In the next few days, Arizona’s Jakob Chychrun is likely to be traded, too.

Waiting one more hole on Sunday was no problem. Kirk stuck his approach to the par-5 18th to tap-in range, and his birdie on the first hole of a playoff lifted him past Eric Cole for the victory at the Honda Classic on Sunday. Cole had a chance, playing his third shot from the sand to just outside of 10 feet for a birdie that would have extended the playoff. But it lipped out, and Kirk nudged his ball in for his fifth career win. Golf – LIV – Charles Howell III with 63 wins in Mexico for 1st LIV title Charles Howell III has won the LIV Golf opener in Mexico. This one finally felt easy. Howell shot a 63 in the final round at Mayakoba thanks to a hot putter. He wound up winning by four shots over Peter Uihlein. Howell picked up $4 million for the individual title and an additional $1 million for leading his team Crushers to a nine-shot win. Uihlein was still in range of Howell until the 12th hole. Uihlein had to hit three tee shots. Only two of them counted but it added to a triple bogey. He battled back for a 68.

They traded winger Vitali Kravtsov to the Vancouver Canucks and put forward Jake Leschyshyn on waivers on Saturday, Feb. 25, 2023. That could clear the cap space to get Kane from Chicago.

MLB – Major League Baseball Yesterday Cincinnati Reds 4, Chicago Cubs 3 Chicago White Sox 14, Oakland A’s 2 Tigers were off Reds 4, Cubs 3 – India’s hit in 9th gives Reds 4-3 win over Cubs Jonathan India hit a tiebreaking RBI single in the ninth inning, and the Cincinnati Reds rallied for a 4-3 victory over the Chicago Cubs. Chicago was ahead 3-2 when Alejo Lopez’s liner off Mark Leiter Jr. slipped between rookie right fielder Seiya Suzuki and center fielder Rafael Ortega. The ball rolled to the wall for a triple, allowing Nick Senzel to score from first to tie it. Lopez trotted home on when India lined a single to left, his third hit of the game. Suzuki doubled and scored in the sixth and put Chicago in front with a solo shot in the eighth. Alexis Diaz got five outs for the win. Ian Gibaut worked around a hit in the ninth for his first save. White Sox 14, A’s 2 – Moncada 5 for 6 with 2 HR, White Sox blast A’s 14-2 Yoán Moncada went 5 for 6 with two home runs and five RBIs, Dylan Cease fanned nine in six scoreless innings and the Chicago White Sox hammered the Oakland Athletics 14-2 on Thursday night. Chicago had 21 hits, including 10 extra-base hits, in its highest-scoring game of the season. It has won seven of its last nine games. Romy González went 4 for 5 with a homer and three RBIs. Elvis Andrus, released by the A’s in August, and Eloy Jiménez also homered. Cease (14-6) reached 206 strikeouts for the year, becoming the seventh White Sox pitcher with multiple 200-strikeout seasons. The right-hander allowed just three hits and two walks after coming within one out of a no-hitter in his last start against Minnesota. Today San Francisco (Rodón 12-7) at Chicago Cubs (Smyly 5-8), 4:05 p.m. Detroit (Wentz 0-1) at Kansas City (Lynch 4-9), 8:10 p.m.           Cosy-FM 7:50/WSJM Joined after HSFB Chicago White Sox (Giolito 10-9) at Oakland (Kaprielian 3-9), 9:40 p.m. NFL – National Football League – Week 1 Last Night Buffalo Bills 31, Los Angeles Rams 10 Bills 31, Rams 10 – Buffalo Bills blow out champion Rams 31-10 in season opener Josh Allen passed for 297 yards while accounting for four touchdowns as the Buffalo Bills stamped themselves as a clear contender for the Rams’ Super Bowl crown with a 31-10 victory over Los Angeles. Von Miller had two of Buffalo’s seven sacks as the Bills opened the NFL’s 103rd season by overcoming three first-half turnovers and running away with a blowout win. Matthew Stafford passed for 240 yards with three interceptions in a bruising night for the Rams, who lost a season opener and fell below .500 for the first time in coach Sean McVay’s six seasons in charge.

Chairman George McCaskey said the team would not seek public funding to build the stadium itself if the Bears complete the purchase of a 326-acre site in Arlington Heights, Illinois, and decide to move from Soldier Field. But they would need help to complete the rest of a multibillion dollar project. The Bears envision restaurants, retail, office space, housing, a hotel, fitness center, new parks, ponds and open areas. McCaskey said the project could take more than 10 years to complete. WNBA – WNBA Playoffs – WNBA Semifinals (best of 5) Last Night Connecticut Sun 72, Chicago Sky 63                                          (CT Wins 3-2) Sun 72, Sky 63 – Sun rally in 4th, beat Sky 72-63 to advance to WNBA Finals Jonquel Jones had 15 points and 10 rebounds and the Connecticut Sun overcame an 11-point deficit in the fourth quarter, beating the Chicago Sky 72-63 in the decisive fifth game of the semifinal series and advancing to the WNBA Finals. Connecticut scored the final 18 points of the game to overcome a 63-54 deficit with 4:46 remaining. All the Sun starters scored in double figures and Connecticut advanced to the Finals for the third time overall and first time since 2019. Connecticut will face top-seeded Las Vegas Aces for the WNBA title. The first game of the series is Sunday in Las Vegas. Chicago was attempting to become the first team to repeat as WNBA champions since Los Angeles in 2001-02. Kahleah Copper led the Sky with 22 points and added four steals. NCAAFB – College Football – Week 2 Saturday South Alabama at Central Michigan, 1:00 p.m. Western Michigan at Ball State, 2:00 p.m. Marshall at (8) Notre Dame, 2:30 p.m. Akron at (14) Michigan State, 4:00 p.m.                  Superhits 103.7 Cosy-FM 2:30 Eastern Michigan at Louisiana, 7:00 p.m. Hawaii at (4) Michigan, 8:00 p.m.                            News/Talk/Sports 94.9 WSJM 7:00 NCAAFB – Notre Dame coach Freeman ready for home debut vs Marshall Irish coach Marcus Freeman is eager for No. 8 Notre Dame’s home opener on Saturday against Marshall. Yes, it gives the Fighting Irish a chance to rebound from last week’s season-opening loss at Ohio State. But it’s also a chance for Freeman to get his first career win in his home debut. The Thundering Herd come to town with one of the nation’s most prolific ground games. Marshall ran for more than 300 yards in last week’s rout of FCS foe Norfolk State. But they’ll face a much stiffer challenge against Notre Dame’s defense. NCAAFB – CFP committee digs into feasibility of early expansion to 12 The College Football Playoff management committee gathered for 4 ½ hours at a hotel in the Dallas-Fort Worth Airport. It was the conference commissioners first meeting since their bosses voted last week to expand the CFP from four to 12 teams. The goal is to sort through a myriad of issues and have a new format in place for the 2024 season. It’s unclear whether there is still time to accomplish that. First and foremost, they need to figure out where and when 11 playoff games can be played. Availability of venues and television time slots could ultimately determine whether early expansion is possible. Tennis – US Open – Swiatek, Jabeur will meet in 1st US Open final for both Iga Swiatek and Ons Jabeur will face each other in the U.S. Open women’s final. Tunisia’s Jabeur reached her second consecutive Grand Slam title match by beating Caroline Garcia 6-1, 6-3 at Flushing Meadows on Thursday night. The No. 5-seeded Jabeur was the runner-up at Wimbledon in July. She took full advantage of a shaky performance by first-time major semifinalist Garcia. The No. 1-ranked Swiatek grabbed the last four games to eliminate No. 6 Aryna Sabalenka 3-6, 6-1, 6-4 in the other semifinal. Poland’s Swiatek already owns two trophies from the French Open’s red clay but never had been past the fourth round on New York’s hard courts. Tennis – US Open – Tiafoe offers hope for present and future of US men’s tennis Frances Tiafoe calls his run to the U.S. Open semifinals ‘a Cinderella story.’ He is a 24-year-old from Maryland who took up tennis because his father was a janitor at a junior training center, a player who never won a match past the fourth round at a Grand Slam tournament until now, who owns one career ATP title and a sub-.500 career record, and whose ranking ranged from 24 to 74 over the past two seasons. Tiafoe’s tale also is a significant step forward for American men’s tennis and could help grow the sport in the future, too. Tiafoe is the first man from the U.S. to reach the semifinals at Flushing Meadows in 16 years. And he could become the first Black man from the U.S. in a major final since MaliVai Washington was the runner-up at Wimbledon in more than a quarter-century ago. Sports events in Britain called off following death of queen Several sporting events in Britain have been called off as a mark of respect following the death of Queen Elizabeth II at the age of 96. Organizers of the BMW PGA Championship golf event reacted to the announcement of the queen’s death by immediately suspending play with many players still out on the course at Wentworth. Friday’s play in the second test between England and South Africa at the Oval will not take place and horse racing meetings in Britain were suspended on Thursday night and Friday. Fridays games in the English Football League will not take place. Miller, Lamoureux twins elected to US Hockey Hall of Fame Longtime NHL and former Michigan State goaltender Ryan Miller and Olympic gold medal-winning women’s hockey stars Jocelyne Lamoureux-Davidson and Monique Lamoureux-Morando headline the 2022 class of the U.S. Hockey Hall of Fame. Three-time Paralympic gold medal-winning sled hockey goalie Steve Cash and late USA Hockey executive Jim Johannson were also elected. Miller backstopped the U.S. to the final of the 2010 Vancouver Olympics and has the most NHL victories of any American-born goalie. The Lamoureux twins helped the U.S. beat Canada for gold at the 2018 Games in Pyeongchang with Lamoureux-Davidson scoring the shootout winner. Johannson was general manager of the men’s team that year before dying unexpectedly at age 53 a few weeks before the start of the tournament. NASCAR – Kyle Busch still seeking on-track success, job for 2023 It didn’t seem much could still go wrong this year for Kyle Busch until his engine blew with 22 laps remaining in NASCAR’s opening playoff race. Busch had dominated at Darlington Raceway and led a race-high 155 laps for what should have been a much needed victory. He’s had a crummy season and the 10-race playoff stretch is probably the final days of his career with Joe Gibbs Racing. Instead of a victory that would have automatically advanced him into the second round, Busch finished 30th and remained 11th in the playoff standings. Even worse, he has no idea when he’ll have a job secured for 2023.

Chicago had 21 hits, including 10 extra-base hits, in its highest-scoring game of the season. It has won seven of its last nine games. Romy González went 4 for 5 with a homer and three RBIs. Elvis Andrus, released by the A’s in August, and Eloy Jiménez also homered. Cease (14-6) reached 206 strikeouts for the year, becoming the seventh White Sox pitcher with multiple 200-strikeout seasons. The right-hander allowed just three hits and two walks after coming within one out of a no-hitter in his last start against Minnesota. Today San Francisco (Rodón 12-7) at Chicago Cubs (Smyly 5-8), 4:05 p.m. Detroit (Wentz 0-1) at Kansas City (Lynch 4-9), 8:10 p.m.           Cosy-FM 7:50/WSJM Joined after HSFB Chicago White Sox (Giolito 10-9) at Oakland (Kaprielian 3-9), 9:40 p.m. NFL – National Football League – Week 1 Last Night Buffalo Bills 31, Los Angeles Rams 10 Bills 31, Rams 10 – Buffalo Bills blow out champion Rams 31-10 in season opener Josh Allen passed for 297 yards while accounting for four touchdowns as the Buffalo Bills stamped themselves as a clear contender for the Rams’ Super Bowl crown with a 31-10 victory over Los Angeles. Von Miller had two of Buffalo’s seven sacks as the Bills opened the NFL’s 103rd season by overcoming three first-half turnovers and running away with a blowout win. Matthew Stafford passed for 240 yards with three interceptions in a bruising night for the Rams, who lost a season opener and fell below .500 for the first time in coach Sean McVay’s six seasons in charge. Sunday Philadelphia Eagles at Detroit Lions, 1:00 p.m.                 Rock 107 WIRX 12:00 San Francisco 49ers at Chicago Bears, 1:00 p.m. Indianapolis Colts at Houston Texans, 1:00 p.m. NFL – Bears say they’d need assistance to complete stadium complex The Chicago Bears say they will need taxpayer assistance if they are going to construct an enclosed suburban stadium that could host Super Bowls, Final Fours and College Football Playoff games and anchor a surrounding entertainment and residential complex. Chairman George McCaskey said the team would not seek public funding to build the stadium itself if the Bears complete the purchase of a 326-acre site in Arlington Heights, Illinois, and decide to move from Soldier Field. But they would need help to complete the rest of a multibillion dollar project. The Bears envision restaurants, retail, office space, housing, a hotel, fitness center, new parks, ponds and open areas. McCaskey said the project could take more than 10 years to complete. WNBA – WNBA Playoffs – WNBA Semifinals (best of 5) Last Night Connecticut Sun 72, Chicago Sky 63                                          (CT Wins 3-2) Sun 72, Sky 63 – Sun rally in 4th, beat Sky 72-63 to advance to WNBA Finals Jonquel Jones had 15 points and 10 rebounds and the Connecticut Sun overcame an 11-point deficit in the fourth quarter, beating the Chicago Sky 72-63 in the decisive fifth game of the semifinal series and advancing to the WNBA Finals. Connecticut scored the final 18 points of the game to overcome a 63-54 deficit with 4:46 remaining. All the Sun starters scored in double figures and Connecticut advanced to the Finals for the third time overall and first time since 2019. Connecticut will face top-seeded Las Vegas Aces for the WNBA title. The first game of the series is Sunday in Las Vegas. Chicago was attempting to become the first team to repeat as WNBA champions since Los Angeles in 2001-02. Kahleah Copper led the Sky with 22 points and added four steals. NCAAFB – College Football – Week 2 Saturday South Alabama at Central Michigan, 1:00 p.m. Western Michigan at Ball State, 2:00 p.m. Marshall at (8) Notre Dame, 2:30 p.m. Akron at (14) Michigan State, 4:00 p.m.                  Superhits 103.7 Cosy-FM 2:30 Eastern Michigan at Louisiana, 7:00 p.m. Hawaii at (4) Michigan, 8:00 p.m.                            News/Talk/Sports 94.9 WSJM 7:00 NCAAFB – Notre Dame coach Freeman ready for home debut vs Marshall Irish coach Marcus Freeman is eager for No. 8 Notre Dame’s home opener on Saturday against Marshall. Yes, it gives the Fighting Irish a chance to rebound from last week’s season-opening loss at Ohio State. But it’s also a chance for Freeman to get his first career win in his home debut. The Thundering Herd come to town with one of the nation’s most prolific ground games. Marshall ran for more than 300 yards in last week’s rout of FCS foe Norfolk State. But they’ll face a much stiffer challenge against Notre Dame’s defense. NCAAFB – CFP committee digs into feasibility of early expansion to 12 The College Football Playoff management committee gathered for 4 ½ hours at a hotel in the Dallas-Fort Worth Airport. It was the conference commissioners first meeting since their bosses voted last week to expand the CFP from four to 12 teams. The goal is to sort through a myriad of issues and have a new format in place for the 2024 season. It’s unclear whether there is still time to accomplish that. First and foremost, they need to figure out where and when 11 playoff games can be played. Availability of venues and television time slots could ultimately determine whether early expansion is possible. Tennis – US Open – Swiatek, Jabeur will meet in 1st US Open final for both Iga Swiatek and Ons Jabeur will face each other in the U.S. Open women’s final. Tunisia’s Jabeur reached her second consecutive Grand Slam title match by beating Caroline Garcia 6-1, 6-3 at Flushing Meadows on Thursday night. The No. 5-seeded Jabeur was the runner-up at Wimbledon in July. She took full advantage of a shaky performance by first-time major semifinalist Garcia. The No. 1-ranked Swiatek grabbed the last four games to eliminate No. 6 Aryna Sabalenka 3-6, 6-1, 6-4 in the other semifinal. Poland’s Swiatek already owns two trophies from the French Open’s red clay but never had been past the fourth round on New York’s hard courts. Tennis – US Open – Tiafoe offers hope for present and future of US men’s tennis Frances Tiafoe calls his run to the U.S. Open semifinals ‘a Cinderella story.’ He is a 24-year-old from Maryland who took up tennis because his father was a janitor at a junior training center, a player who never won a match past the fourth round at a Grand Slam tournament until now, who owns one career ATP title and a sub-.500 career record, and whose ranking ranged from 24 to 74 over the past two seasons. Tiafoe’s tale also is a significant step forward for American men’s tennis and could help grow the sport in the future, too. Tiafoe is the first man from the U.S. to reach the semifinals at Flushing Meadows in 16 years. And he could become the first Black man from the U.S. in a major final since MaliVai Washington was the runner-up at Wimbledon in more than a quarter-century ago. Sports events in Britain called off following death of queen Several sporting events in Britain have been called off as a mark of respect following the death of Queen Elizabeth II at the age of 96. Organizers of the BMW PGA Championship golf event reacted to the announcement of the queen’s death by immediately suspending play with many players still out on the course at Wentworth. Friday’s play in the second test between England and South Africa at the Oval will not take place and horse racing meetings in Britain were suspended on Thursday night and Friday. Fridays games in the English Football League will not take place. Miller, Lamoureux twins elected to US Hockey Hall of Fame Longtime NHL and former Michigan State goaltender Ryan Miller and Olympic gold medal-winning women’s hockey stars Jocelyne Lamoureux-Davidson and Monique Lamoureux-Morando headline the 2022 class of the U.S. Hockey Hall of Fame. Three-time Paralympic gold medal-winning sled hockey goalie Steve Cash and late USA Hockey executive Jim Johannson were also elected. Miller backstopped the U.S. to the final of the 2010 Vancouver Olympics and has the most NHL victories of any American-born goalie. The Lamoureux twins helped the U.S. beat Canada for gold at the 2018 Games in Pyeongchang with Lamoureux-Davidson scoring the shootout winner. Johannson was general manager of the men’s team that year before dying unexpectedly at age 53 a few weeks before the start of the tournament. NASCAR – Kyle Busch still seeking on-track success, job for 2023 It didn’t seem much could still go wrong this year for Kyle Busch until his engine blew with 22 laps remaining in NASCAR’s opening playoff race. Busch had dominated at Darlington Raceway and led a race-high 155 laps for what should have been a much needed victory. He’s had a crummy season and the 10-race playoff stretch is probably the final days of his career with Joe Gibbs Racing. Instead of a victory that would have automatically advanced him into the second round, Busch finished 30th and remained 11th in the playoff standings. Even worse, he has no idea when he’ll have a job secured for 2023.

MLB – Major League Baseball Yesterday Cincinnati Reds 4, Chicago Cubs 3 Chicago White Sox 14, Oakland A’s 2 Tigers were off Reds 4, Cubs 3 – India’s hit in 9th gives Reds 4-3 win over Cubs Jonathan India hit a tiebreaking RBI single in the ninth inning, and the Cincinnati Reds rallied for a 4-3 victory over the Chicago Cubs. Chicago was ahead 3-2 when Alejo Lopez’s liner off Mark Leiter Jr. slipped between rookie right fielder Seiya Suzuki and center fielder Rafael Ortega. The ball rolled to the wall for a triple, allowing Nick Senzel to score from first to tie it. Lopez trotted home on when India lined a single to left, his third hit of the game. Suzuki doubled and scored in the sixth and put Chicago in front with a solo shot in the eighth. Alexis Diaz got five outs for the win. Ian Gibaut worked around a hit in the ninth for his first save.
