Texas Rangers bring back Dane Dunning after optioning reliever Caleb Boushley
BALTIMORE (AP) — The Texas Rangers brought back right-hander Dane Dunning from Triple-A Round Rock on Monday after reliever Caleb Boushley was optioned to the minors.
Texas made the move before the opener of a three-game series at Baltimore, a day after Boushley threw 72 pitches.
Boushley faced 22 batters, allowing five runs and 10 hits while pitching the final four innings of an 8-3 loss Sunday at Pittsburgh. That was five days after the right-hander also finished a 6-1 home loss against Kansas City, when he retired all 10 batters over the final 3 1/3 innings. He has a 5.04 ERA in 15 appearances over two stints with the Rangers this season.
Dunning started 95 games the past four seasons for the Rangers. He has pitched in relief in 16 of his 27 games for Texas since the start of last season, including his only game this season when on the roster for two days in April before being designated for assignment and then assigned outright to Round Rock.
The 30-year-old right-hander is 26-32 with a 4.39 ERA in his 118 games with Texas.

Jake Paul tells booing crowd 'shut the f--k up' after beating Julio César Chávez
Jake Paul told a booing crowd to "shut the f--k up" after defeating former middleweight champion Julio César Chávez Jr. by unanimous decision on Saturday night in Anaheim, California. "All the boos are words, and actions speak louder than words, so y'all can shut the f--- up!" Paul said in the postmatch interview while making taunting gestures to the crowd. "I'm hip, I'm really hip, I just beat your boy's a--, easy work, year five, wait till I get going even more motherf---ers!" Paul (12-1, 7 KOs) appeared to be taking the biggest risk of his unique boxing career by facing his most accomplished opponent in 39-year-old Chávez (54-7-2), and in front of an ardently pro-Chávez crowd in Southern California. At least it seemed like a risk until Chávez stepped into the ring at Honda Center and looked lifeless, barely throwing a punch until late in the fourth round of their cruiserweight bout. Even with his famous father shouting furiously at ringside, Chávez fought tentatively and tepidly against Paul, who patiently controlled the ring and landed just enough to win rounds. Chávez first mounted a discernible attack in the sixth, and he delivered several exciting shots in the ninth, finally exhibiting the skills of a long boxing career. But he couldn't seriously damage the YouTuber-turned-pugilist, who jumped on the ropes in celebration after absorbing several flurries in the 10th and final round. The judges scored it 99-91, 98-92 and 97-93 for Paul. The Associated Press also favored Paul 97-93. "I thought I lost the first five rounds, so I tried to win the last rounds," Chávez said. "He's strong, a good boxer (for) the first three, four rounds. After that, I felt he was tired. I don't think he's ready for the champions, but he's a good fighter." Chávez, who has fought just once since 2021, is best known for failing to maximize the potential in his father's genetics. He is still the most credible boxer by far to share the ring with Paul, who is now 5 1/2 years and 13 fights into his lucrative fighting career.

USC Watches Big Ten Rival Add 4-Star Power Back
USC Watches Big Ten Rival Add 4-Star Power Back originally appeared on Athlon Sports. USC continues to hold the top spot in the national recruiting rankings. One Big Ten rival, however, added a four-star power back who was on the Trojans' radar early on the trail. Advertisement Amari Latimer chose Wisconsin in shutting down his college football recruiting process Saturday. The 6-foot-1, 220-pound Latimer held a litany of scholarship offers. Including the Trojans, who offered back on Feb. 6. Ironically, Latimer's offer came before USC skyrocketed to the top of the rankings with an aggressive February blitz. The native of Tyrone, Georgia pulled in approximately 50 scholarship offers. The Sandy Creek High star reeled in one other Californian offer, but from Atlantic Coast Conference representative Cal. So how did Wisconsin win over the power back compared to USC, Cal, Big Ten champion Oregon and the long list of power conference suitors for him? His father explained it to Evan Flood of 247Sports. Sep 7, 2024; Los Angeles, California, USA; USC Trojans running back Woody Marks (4) runs the ball against Utah State Aggies linebacker Clyde Washington (42) during the second quarter at United Airlines Field at Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. Jonathan Hui-Imagn ImagesJonathan Hui-Imagn Images "Their relationship is one that Amari sees as almost like a big brother, an authoritative type big brother," said Giimere Sr. "Amari values their conversations." Advertisement He's verbal commit No. 15 for Luke Fickell and the Badgers coaching staff. The Badgers even offered him before USC and Lincoln Riley made their pursuit -- as Wisconsin got on Latimer during the summer of 2023. Latimer became drawn to the pipeline of backs who have strolled through Madison. Names like Jonathan Taylor and Heisman Trophy winner Ron Dayne come to mind. He's also going to join his older brother Geimere Latimer on the roster, as the cornerback came via the transfer portal. But now USC has a future 220-pound locomotive to game plan for in Big Ten play. The Trojans visit Camp Randall in the 2026 season.
