B3 - Florida State 1, Oregon State 0
The Seminoles have four hits and have had a lot of activity on the bases, but they lead by only one run as one runner was thrown out at the plate. Oregon State doesn't have a hit through two innings. Imagn Images
B7 - Louisville 8, Miami 1
The Hurricanes leave two more runners on base, and that has been the theme of this game. The Cardinals have made the most of their chances. The Hurricanes have not.

B6 - Louisville 8, Miami 1
Patrick Forbes with a solid outing to get Louisville off to a strong start this weekend. Forbes went 5-2/3 and allowed one run with a runner on first base who is his responsibility. Forbes struck out nine to more than offset his four walks.
Brennyn Cutts takes the mound for the Cardinals, who appear to be in complete control, and he gets out of the inning with a quick ground ball. Nice work from the Louisville pitching staff today.
T5 - Louisville 8, Miami 1
This game has slowed to a halt, but the Cardinals just keep scoring runs. Jake Munroe is up to five RBIs with a sac fly to right field, and the Cardinals' lead is back up to seven runs.
Miami has gotten runners on, but it has struggled to get them home. That has been the difference in this game. Imagn Images
B4 - Louisville 8, Miami 1
The Hurricanes had a chance to cut into the Cardinals' lead with runners on second and third with two outs. But Patrick Forbes gets out of another jam with a strikeout to end the inning.
Forbes has allowed three hits and walked four, but he has seven strikeouts. It hasn't been pretty or easy, but it's working.
Things are spiraling out of control for Miami. The Canes were on the verge of getting out of a bases-loaded, one-out jam in the bottom of the third, but pitcher AJ Ciscar's throw home sailed wide to the right. Instead of a double play, two runs scored for Louisville. The next batter, Jake Munroe, drilled a three-run home run to put Louisville on top 7-1. Those are the types of mistakes teams cannot make — especially on the road — to win a Super Regional. Imagn Images
B3 - Louisville 7, Miami 1
A double, an intentional walk and a hit batter loaded the bases, and then Miami helped Louisville's cause with an error on a throw to the plate that would have gotten the second out. Two runs scored on the bad throw, and then Jake Munroe blasted a three-run shot over the left-center field wall.
The Cardinals have five runs in the inning, and they're not done yet.
B3 - Louisville 2, Miami 1
The Hurricanes get their first run of the weekend on a sacrifice fly, and Louisville starting pitcher Patrick Forbes is working hard early in this one. Forbes has six strikeouts through three innings, but he has allowed two hits and walked three.
It hasn't been pretty, but it mostly has been effective.
B2 - Louisville 2, Miami 0
After the Cardinals kept Miami off the board in the top of the inning, right fielder Garrett Pike leads off the bottom of the second with an opposite-field home run to put Louisville on top...
...and Jake Munroe follows that up with a home run of his own to straightaway center field!
Louisville strikes first in back-to-back fashion off Miami's AJ Ciscar, and the Cardinals have all the early momentum in this one. Louisville Baseball / X
Mid 2 - Miami 0, Louisville 0
After Louisville's Patrick Forbes issues back-to-back walks and a hit batter to load the bases with one out, he responds with back-to-back strikeouts to get out of the inning!
A big missed opportunity for the Hurricanes as Forbes roars along with the Cardinals home crowd while skipping off the mound. We're still scoreless through 1.5 innings in Louisville. Imagn Images

First pitch of Miami-Louisville was initially scheduled for 3 p.m. ET but has been moved back to 3:36 p.m. due to some rain. Still, a solid turnout from Louisville fans after the Cardinals took advantage of a stunning collapse from No. 1 overall seed Vanderbilt to win the Nashville regional.

Royals place Michael Massey on injured list, recall Tyler Tolbert before series-opener vs Yankees

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Royals placed second baseman Michael Massey on the 10-day injured list with a sprained left ankle and recalled utility man Tyler Tolbert from Triple-A Omaha before starting a three-game series against the Yankees on Tuesday night. Massey had served as the designated hitter on Saturday against the White Sox but did not finish the game, and he was out of the lineup for the series finale . He is hitting just .202 with two homers and 14 RBIs in 56 games this season. 'The same ankle injury that he's been dealing with since the last homestand. It's just not getting any better, or it's not improving enough to go out there and play at a high level,' Royals manager Matt Quatraro said. 'He got an MRI to show that things weren't healing as well as we would like. So, we needed to make a move to get him some rest.' In other news, the Royals expect to have reliever Lucas Erceg back before they wrap up their series against New York. He threw a clean inning against Omaha on Sunday night as he works his way back from a lower back strain. Erceg has appeared in 24 games with a 1.96 ERA for Kansas City this season. ___ AP MLB:

93 days until the Texans' 2025 season opener: Who has worn No. 93?

The Houston Texans are less than 100 days away from kicking off the 2025 season in Los Angeles against the Rams at SoFi Stadium and we're counting down the days until a victory ensues on the west coast. Texans Wire will each day tell you which player has worn the number of the day leading up to kickoff and pick the player who ensured the number best during their time at NRG Stadium. As for today, let's take a look at who has won No. 93 since the inaugural season in 2002. Texans players to wear No. 93 No. 93 currently belongs to Kurt Hinish, who's back on a one-year deal after missing chunks of last season due to injury. He's been a solid depth piece since joining Houston as an undrafted free agent out of Notre Dame in 2022, but he's not the best player to don the number in the last 20 years. Advertisement DL Kurt Hinish (2022-present) DL Jaleel Johnson (2021) DL Joel Heath (2016-2019) DL Jared Crick (2012-2015) DL Tim Bulman (2007-2009, 2011) DE Jason Babin (2004-2006) LB Kevin DeRonde (2003) DL Erick Flowers (2002) Best Player: Jason Babin Babin might be better known for his time in Seattle or Philadelphia, but he kick-started his success as a pass-rusher in Houston. The former first-round pick notched 13 sacks and 25 tackles for loss before being shipped off to the Seahawks in 2007. Babin's breakout year in Tennessee with 12.5 sacks eventually led to a megadeal with the Eagles on a five-year contract. He terrorized the Texans during his brief stay in Nashville, but he'll always be remembered -- at least for the time being -- as the best player to wear No. 93.

WATCH: Texans QB C.J. Stroud returns to practice, throwing during minicamp

Houston Texans fans can exhale a sigh of relief following the start of Tuesday's mandatory minicamp at the Methodist Training Center. Third-year Pro Bowl quarterback C.J. Stroud threw passes for the first time in almost a month during the opening of Tuesday's minicamp practice. He connected on several completions to Pro Bowl wide receiver Nico Collins and rookie Jayden Higgins that caught the eye of reporters in practice. Advertisement Here's a look at several throws during the early stages of team drills. Stroud was kept from throwing during the Texans' OTA practices over the last two weeks because he was dealing with 'general soreness' in his throwing shoulder, according to head coach DeMeco Ryans. Both Ryans and first-year offensive coordinator Nick Caley said that they weren't concerned with Stroud missing reps and he'd be ready to go ahead of training camp. Stroud is in a pivotal year for the Texans after leading the franchise to back-to-back division titles. With a pair of losses in the divisional round, Houston spent the offeseason trying to revamp the offense and put the franchise quarterback in a better position to succeed. Advertisement While Stroud didn't throw during team drills, the fact that he was throwing at practice in general is a promising sign. Houston could elevate his reps on Wednesday's practice to close out minicamp with the media. The Texans open the regular season on the road against the Los Angeles Rams at SoFi Stadium on Sept. 7.
