Mets clip Angels 6-3 for series sweep
Manaea (1-1) allowed just two hits and a run, walking two and fanning five in his third appearance (second start) since returning off the injured list. Edwin Diaz pitched the last 1 1/3 innings for his 21st save in 23 chances.
Bulk reliever Jake Eder (0-1) absorbed the loss, permitting five runs off seven hits and a walk over the last six innings. He walked one and struck out seven. Opener Brock Burke and Sam Bachman each pitched an inning.
Los Angeles trailed 6-1 but rallied for two runs in the seventh and got the tying run to the plate in the eighth with two outs after Diaz plunked Travis d'Arnaud. But Diaz slipped a called third strike past Luis Rengifo, leading to the ejection of interim manager Ray Montgomery by plate umpire Erich Bacchus.
Later in the eighth, Bacchus dumped Angels coach Tim Laker, also for arguing balls and strikes.
Brandon Nimmo got New York off to a flying start by cracking a leadoff homer in the first off Burke, his 19th of the season. Los Angeles tied it in the third when Mike Trout rifled a solo homer to right-center, his 18th of the season and 999th career RBI.
Francisco Lindor broke an 0-for-31 skid in the bottom of the third with a run-scoring single. Two batters later, Alonso golfed Eder's low fastball an estimated 439 feet to the seats in left-center for his 22nd homer.
Lindor made it 6-1 in the fourth with his second RBI single that scored Luis Torrens. The Mets appeared to be cruising until the Angels got back into the game in the seventh. Rengifo's fielder's choice bouncer to first plated Kevin Newman and Chris Taylor lined an RBI double into the right field corner.
Nimmo, Lindor, Alonso and Starling Marte each picked up two of New York's 10 hits.

Marcus Morris Sr's brother and agent slam NBA star's 'insane' arrest 'real' reasons he was detained
The twin brother of NBA free agent Marcus Morris Sr. and the player's agent are disputing the reason for his shocking arrest in Florida on Sunday. Morris was arrested at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport. According to arrest records in Broward County, Morris is being held on a charge of Fraud - Writing a Check With Insufficient Funds. But hours after the arrest, Morris' brother Markieff posted an angry statement on X, formerly Twitter: 'The wording is crazy. Damn for that amount of money they'll embarrass you in the airport with your family,' the post read. 'They could have came to the crib for all that. 'When y'all hear the real story on this s**t man. All I can say is Lesson learned. Bro will tell y'all tomorrow. This weird shit gave me a headache. Can't stop nothin!' Nearly half an hour later, Yony Noy - who represents both brothers - posted a statement of his own: 'Just so everyone understands this is zero fraud here or whatever crap outlets have said regarding fake checks or whatever the hell. This is due to an outstanding marker with a casino. Apparently if you have over $1,200 they can issue a warrant for your arrest. Absolute insanity!' A source told Daily Mail that the casino in question is in Las Vegas. According to the websites of multiple law firms, in the state of Nevada, an unpaid marker is treated as the equivalent of writing a bad check. Failing to pay a marker is treated as a class D felony and carries a penalty of fines and up to four years in prison. The Broward County Sheriff's Office did not immediately return a request for comment from Marcus has had a 13-year NBA career, beginning when the Houston Rockets selected him 14th overall in the 2011 NBA Draft. He would go on to play for the Rockets, the Phoenix Suns, the Detroit Pistons, the Boston Celtics, the New York Knicks, and the Los Angeles Clippers. Most recently, he played the 2023-24 season with the Philadelphia 76ers and the Cleveland Cavaliers. This incident is not Marcus' first run-in with the law. In 2012, he was arrested in Lawrence, Kansas on a battery charge after he and another person punched a bar employee while watching a Kansas-Missouri basketball game. Marcus entered a diversion agreement, paid a $300 diversion fee, and $60 in court fees. He also agreed to not come in contact with the victim or the bar for one year. At the time the diversion agreement was made, the prosecutor said that the case would be dismissed if Morris fulfilled the terms and remained 'out of trouble' during the 12 month period. Three years later, Marcus, Markeiff, Baltimore Ravens safety Gerald Bowman, and two other assailants were arrested in connection with the assault of 36-year-old Eric Hood in Arizona. Both Marcus and Markeiff were playing on the Phoenix Suns at the time. Hood, who had mentored the Morris twins, was allegedly 'sending an inappropriate text message' to the twins' mother. After a trial, the twins and Bowman were found not guilty while the other two assailants confessed.

San Francisco 49ers star Tarron Jackson rushed to the hospital after 'scary' collapse
San Francisco defensive lineman Tarron Jackson was taken to the hospital after collapsing on the field during 49ers training camp. The 27-year-old went down after he was blocked on a play late in practice. He remained on the ground for several minutes before being taken off on a stretcher. An ambulance then rushed Jackson to the hospital but coach Kyle Shanahan later revealed that he was conscious, able to communicate and feel all his extremities. 'So hopefully, we cleared the real scary stuff, and hopefully we´ll get some good news on his neck,' Shanahan said. The 49ers were able to finish practice after Jackson was taken off the field. 'It's always hard... especially when guys watch that,' Shanahan said. 'We were close to him, so we could hear him talking, we could see everything moving, so I just told the guys that, which I think eases them up a little bit for the biggest fears and asked them if they're OK to continue to go. They all yelled "yes," and then we finished our last period and a half.' The 27-year-old Jackson was a sixth-round pick by Philadelphia in 2021 and has played 24 career games for the Eagles and Carolina. He signed with San Francisco in the offseason. The 49ers activated second-year receiver Ricky Pearsall from the physically unable to perform list earlier in the day and he practiced for the first time this summer. 'It was nice,' Shanahan said. 'His rep count was really low. I think he got like eight reps today, but we´ll see how he did with recovery and stuff. But I didn´t hear any complaints and good first day back.' Pearsall had been out since injuring his hamstring during the offseason program. The Niners are counting on a big season from the 2024 first-round pick after trading away Deebo Samuel and with Brandon Aiyuk expected to miss the start of the season recovering from knee surgery. Pearsall had a difficult rookie season, missing almost all of camp with injuries to his hamstring and shoulder and then sitting out the first half of the season after being shot in a robbery attempt in San Francisco. Pearsall returned in Week 7 and finished the season with 31 catches for 400 yards and three touchdowns in 11 games. Pearsall had a strong finish to the season with 14 catches for 210 yards and two touchdowns in the final two games. Cornerback Renardo Green was out after hurting his hamstring in practice on Friday. Shanahan said that he will likely miss a couple of weeks but could return the week of Aug. 11 when the Niners prepare for their second exhibition game against the Raiders. Veteran cornerback Eli Apple agreed to a deal with San Francisco on Sunday, according to his agency Universal Sports Management. The 29-year-old Apple has played 102 games, including four with the Chargers last season. Receiver Jacob Cowing has a similar timeline to Green after hurting his hamstring on the first day of practice last Wednesday. Receiver Jauan Jennings left practice early with a calf injury but quarterback Brock Purdy returned to practice Sunday after missing a session on Friday for personal reasons. 'Brock had some family stuff yesterday, all good news,' Shanahan said. 'I'm sure he'll tell you guys when he talks to you guys next. But Brock was back and didn't miss a beat and it was a good day off for him.'
