Brewers activate outfielder Daz Cameron from the paternity list
CHICAGO (AP) — The Milwaukee Brewers activated outfielder Daz Cameron from the paternity list on Tuesday.
Cameron takes the roster spot of outfielder Drew Avans, who was optioned to Triple-A Nashville. The 28-year-old Cameron is batting .200 with a homer and three RBIs in 19 games in his first year with the Brewers.
Garrett Mitchell's rehab assignment was moved from the Arizona Complex League to Nashville. The outfielder is coming back from a left oblique injury.
Brewers manager Pat Murphy said there is no target date or number of at-bats for Mitchell.
'We got to kind of track and see where he's at, keep him healthy,' Murphy said before the team's series opener against the Chicago Cubs.
Mitchell, a first-round pick in the 2020 amateur draft out of UCLA, hasn't appeared in a major league game since April 25. He batted .255 with eight homers, 21 RBIs and 11 steals last season, helping Milwaukee win the NL Central.
The Brewers are hoping the 26-year-old Mitchell will be able to rejoin the team before the All-Star break.

Buchanan's brace lifts Canada to 6-0 Gold Cup win over Honduras
VANCOUVER – Tajon Buchanan notched a brace and Canada opened its Gold Cup run with a decisive 6-0 victory over Honduras at B.C. Place on Tuesday. Local product Niko Sigur got the 30th-ranked Canadians on the board in the 27th minute with his first goal for the senior national team and Tani Oluwaseyi followed with a tally in first-half injury time. Buchanan put away goals in the 48th and 65th minutes, substitute Promise David scored in the 75th, and Nathan Saliba sealed the win with a goal in the 90th minute. Goalkeeper Dayne St. Clair stopped all three on-target shots he faced from No. 75 Honduras. Canada will return to action on June 21 when the squad faces No. 90 Curaçao in Houston. The team will wrap up Group B play against No. 81 El Salvador on June 24. The winner and runner-up from each of the four groups advance to the knockout stage in the 16-team tournament. The finale will be held in Houston on July 6. Canada head coach Jesse Marsch was suspended for Tuesday's match, the first of a two-game suspension he received when he was sent off at the CONCACAF Nations League third-place game in March. He was replaced by Mauro Biello on the touchline. The Canadians settled into the game midway through the first half and took charge when Sigur scored in the 27th minute. The 21-year-old passed off to Jonathan David at the top of the penalty area and, when David chipped it right back, Sigur sent a right-footed shot sailing in past Honduras 'keeper Edrick Menjivar. It was his first goal for the national team and came in his sixth appearance. Oluwaseyi doubled the lead in the third minute of first-half injury time, collecting a pass from Richie Lareya and quickly blasting a shot into the top corner of the net from the side of the six-yard box. He celebrated by running to the touchline and grabbing the jersey of Canadian defender Sam Adekugbe, who's away from the team after suffering a torn Achilles tendon last week. Canada controlled 64.4 per cent possession across the first half, outshot the visitors 10-1 and held a 3-0 edge in on-target shots. The offensive onslaught continued early in the second half. Lareya crossed a ball into Oluwaseyi and the Minnesota United forward back heeled it to Buchanan. Stationed at the side of the six-yard box, Buchanan popped a shot up and in under the crossbar to give Canada a 3-0 lead in the 48th minute. The 26-year-old forward struck again in the 65th off a corner.

The Honduran 'keeper made the stop, but couldn't cover the ball and Buchanan tucked it in for his second goal of the night. Promise David came on in the 71st minute for Oluwaseyi and quickly made an impact, scoring in the 75th. With less than a minute to go in regulation, Saliba fired a left-footed shot into the top corner of the Honduras net to seal the score at 6-0. Canada won the Gold Cup in 2000 and finished third in 2002. When the tournament was last held in 2023, the country lost to the United States in a penalty shootout in the round of 16.

Pete Crow-Armstrong dazzles once again as Cubs add to NL Central lead
CHICAGO (AP) — Pete Crow-Armstrong heard more thunderous chants of 'P-C-A!' and 'M-V-P!' He is still getting used to the adulation. 'I'm still kind of new to the ovations and whatnot. I don't quite know how to respond all the time,' a sheepish Crow-Armstrong said. Looks like he might get some practice this year. In one memorable inning on a warm Tuesday night at Wrigley Field, Crow-Armstrong added another pair of dazzling plays to his breakout season with the Chicago Cubs — one that almost certainly will include the All-Star Game next month in Atlanta. First, he robbed Milwaukee's Brice Turang with a diving catch in center for the second out of the eighth. Then he led off the bottom half of the inning with a 452-foot drive off the scoreboard in right for his team-high 19th homer, sparking another round of 'P-C-A!' chants from the crowd. 'That's why we come to the ballpark, to see things like that,' Cubs manager Craig Counsell said, 'to see great players do amazing things. Pretty cool.' Crow-Armstrong punctuated a 5-3 victory over Milwaukee in the opener of a three-game series between the NL Central rivals. The Cubs upped their division lead to 6 1/2 games over the second-place Brewers. He also had his teammates shaking their heads in almost disbelief once again. 'Every game he plays is like two games for a normal person, just with how hard he plays,' pitcher Ben Brown said. Turang's liner off Caleb Thielbar had an exit velocity of 90.1 mph and looked as if it was ticketed for the grass in left-center. But Crow-Armstrong sprinted over and gloved the ball as he dove and tumbled over before scrambling to his feet. Thielbar just grinned as he took the play in from near the mound. 'He's playing at as high of a level as I've seen a center fielder play,' Counsell said. After Caleb Durbin struck out swinging for the final out of the Milwaukee eighth, Crow-Armstrong walked to the plate to face Rob Zastryzny. He drove the first pitch from the veteran left-hander — an 85.5 mph cutter at the top of the strike zone — deep into the night. It had a 111.5 mph exit velocity, and it was the longest of Crow-Armstrong's 29 career home runs. 'Didn't feel anything,' he said of the swing on the massive drive. Crow-Armstrong, 23, was selected by the New York Mets in the first round of the 2020 amateur draft. He was traded to the Chicago Cubs in the Javier Báez deal in July 2021. He made his major league debut in 2023, going 0 for 14 in 13 games. He had a rough June last year before finding his form. He batted .289 with seven homers and 30 RBIs in his last 57 games in 2024. Winnipeg Jets Game Days On Winnipeg Jets game days, hockey writers Mike McIntyre and Ken Wiebe send news, notes and quotes from the morning skate, as well as injury updates and lineup decisions. Arrives a few hours prior to puck drop. Crow-Armstrong has carried over that success into this year. He also leads the Cubs with 52 runs scored and 23 steals, and he ranks second to Seiya Suzuki with 58 RBIs. When the first batch of All-Star fan voting was announced on Monday, Crow-Armstrong had the highest total for NL outfielders at more than 1.1 million. The All-Star voting, along with the 'P-C-A!' and 'M-V-P!' chants he heard once again, well, Crow-Armstrong was taking it all in as best he could. 'It's so personable and it just feels super real and cool,' he said. ___ AP MLB:

Royals' All-Star reprise in Texas includes homer from Witt against his hometown team
ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Bobby Witt Jr.'s biggest memory from All-Star festivities in his hometown last summer was coming up about 6 inches short — his measurement — in the Home Run Derby. Now the star shortstop of the Kansas City Royals has his first homer that counts at the home of the Texas Rangers. Witt went deep in the fifth inning after sparking his offense with a double and a run scored in the first, and fellow 2024 All-Star Salvador Perez homered twice in a 6-1 victory over the Rangers on Tuesday night. As for the other active Kansas City All-Star from last year in the trio's return to Globe Life Field, Seth Lugo struck out a season-high nine in his first victory since May 1. The right-hander allowed three hits and one run in six innings. Pretty good hat trick in an All-Star reprise as the Royals ended a six-game losing streak that tied their season worst. They also stopped a five-game skid against the Rangers, their co-tenant at spring training in Arizona. 'Seems like a little more than a year ago we were here and had good games,' said Lugo (4-5), forgetting for a moment that it's been about 11 months since he pitched a scoreless inning in the American League's 5-3 victory. 'And now we've got the W, so that's what's most important.' Left-hander Cole Ragans, whose career started with the Rangers, is the Royals' fourth All-Star from a year ago. He's on the injured list with a left rotator cuff strain. Witt — the son of former major league pitcher Bobby Witt, who spent 11 of his 16 big league seasons with the Rangers — lost the derby to Teoscar Hernández last July when a homer that would have forced a tiebreaker bounced off the wall in left field at Globe Life. The 25-year-old wasn't the starter at shortstop for the AL — that was Gunnar Henderson — but Witt played and struck out. His only other homer against the Rangers was in a 12-3 loss at home two years ago. His first at Globe Life was his ninth this season. 'It was great to just check off another ballpark,' said Witt, the former Dallas-area high school star who was the No. 2 overall pick in the 2019 amateur draft. 'But yeah, it was cool.' Thursdays Keep up to date on sports with Mike McIntyre's weekly newsletter. Perez made the biggest news of the night by breaking Hall of Famer George Brett's franchise record with his 18th career multihomer game. The significance wasn't lost on a nine-time All-Star who won a World Series with the Royals 10 years ago. Brett was on the franchise's other championship team 30 years before that. 'When you pass a Hall of Famer, now you know you're going to be next to him,' the 35-year-old Perez said. 'So it's super exciting for me.' ___ AP MLB:
