Contreras caps four-run rally as Brewers spoil Alonso's record-tying night
MILWAUKEE — William Contreras homered to cap a four-run seventh inning and the Milwaukee Brewers rallied past the skidding New York Mets 7-4 on Saturday for their eighth consecutive victory, spoiling Pete Alonso's record-tying night. Alonso opened the second inning with his 252nd career home run, matching the franchise record held by Darryl Strawberry for 37 years. But the Mets lost their sixth straight game and 10th in the last 11 to fall 4 1/2 games behind first-place Philadelphia in the NL East.

The GOAT will see the Commanders live in Week 1
The Washington Commanders are must-see TV in 2025. Yes, you read that correctly. One year after going 12-5 and reaching the NFC championship for the first time in 33 years, the Commanders will have several prime-time games this season. In addition to five prime-time games, Washington has three standalone games. What is a standalone game? A game played at a time other than 1 or 4 p.m. on Sunday or traditional prime-time games. The Commanders play the Miami Dolphins in Madrid on a Sunday morning, the Eagles on a Saturday the week before Christmas, and the Dallas Cowboys on Christmas Day. But even Washington's 1 p.m. games are drawing the interest of others. The Commanders' Week 1 game against the New York Giants has earned "Game of the Week" honors from Fox. That means, Fox's No. 1 broadcasting team, featuring the GOAT Tom Brady, will be in Landover for the NFC East showdown. Joining Brady will be play-by-play announcer Kevin Burkhardt and sideline reporters Erin Andrews and Tom Rinaldi. The Giants were 3-14 last season. While they should be much better in 2025, Brady isn't in town for the New York Giants. It's all about Washington quarterback Jayden Daniels and the expectations surrounding the Commanders in 2025.

Lakers forward could leave franchise to team up with Kawhi Leonard, Clippers, per writer
Lakers forward could leave franchise to team up with Kawhi Leonard, Clippers, per writer originally appeared on The Sporting News Fans should expect LeBron James to return to the Los Angeles Lakers for another season, but there's no guarantee the 21-time All-Star will retire with the franchise. When the 2026 offseason rolls around, Bobby Marks isn't ruling out the possibility of James joining the Kawhi Leonard-led Los Angeles Clippers. 'When James does become a free agent next summer, there will be no shortage of teams waiting for him,' Marks wrote Wednesday. 'The crosstown Clippers could have enough money to sign him outright and pair him with Kawhi Leonard.' "But remember, James will have earned $584 million on the court after his contract with the Lakers expires. Which begs the question: Does the chance at a fifth championship outweigh another big payday?' James hasn't endured the best summer following the conclusion of his 22nd NBA campaign. The four-time NBA champion has been forced to accept the fact that the Lakers are prioritizing Luka Doncic's needs over his, signaling that James is no longer the main attraction in Los Angeles. Follow The Sporting News on WhatsApp If James, who averaged 24.4 points, 8.2 assists, and 7.8 rebounds last season, feels motivated to end his tenure with Los Angeles after the 2025-26 season, the Clippers would be a popular destination for the future Hall of Fame forward. Like James, Leonard is an aging superstar inching closer to retirement. Still, his ability to use his fluid mid-range jumper to take command of games late and maintain his awe-inspiring defensive reputation would work well alongside a physically imposing, highly intelligent phenom in James. It'll be interesting to see how James approaches the 2026 free agency period at age 41. More NBA:
