Mariners right-hander Logan Gilbert will start Monday against Red Sox
SEATTLE (AP) — Right-hander Logan Gilbert will be activated from the 15-day injured list and start for the Seattle Mariners on Monday against the Boston Red Sox, manager Dan Wilson told reporters Sunday morning.
Gilbert, 28, has been on the IL since April 26 because of a right elbow flexor strain. He has made three appearances for Triple-A Tacoma as part of a rehab assignment, going 0-0 with a 2.79 ERA and 11 strikeouts in 9 ⅔ innings.
This season, Gilbert is 1-1 with a 2.37 ERA in six starts for the Mariners, striking out 44 and walking six in 30 1/3 innings.
Gilbert was sixth in AL Cy Young Award voting last year, when he went 9-12 with a 3.23 ERA. He has made at least 32 starts each of the past three seasons, and is 42-31 with a 3.55 ERA in five major league seasons.
Gilbert's return should aid a Seattle rotation that has struggled while dealing with injuries this season. Mariners starters have a 4.09 ERA this season, which is tied for 18th-best in the majors. Last year, Seattle's rotation had the lowest ERA in the league.

Two-time Indy 500 winner Newgarden flips car, walks away from wreck in IndyCar race at Gateway
MADISON, Ill. (AP) — Two-time Indianapolis 500 winner Josef Newgarden flipped his car upside down during Sunday night's race at Gateway outside St. Louis. Newgarden crashed midway through the race after contact with Louis Foster. Newgarden skidded on his roof for a considerable distance after the collision with Foster. The IndyCar safety crew immediately helped Newgarden from his car and he radioed his Team Penske crew he was fine. IndyCar's safety team had to turn the No. 2 Chevrolet back on its wheels after Newgarden was out of the car and the race was under yellow for the clean up. Earlier in the race, Newgarden teammate Will Power crashed when a cut tire caused him to hit the wall. Power had started on the pole.

US Open's final pairing of Scott and Burns turns into a rain-soaked afterthought
OAKMONT, Pa. (AP) — By the time the rain-soaked U.S. Open had figured out its new champion and the chants of 'J-J! J-J!' and 'USA! USA!' had finally given way, there was still golf to be played — one nearly forgotten twosome left to make its way up the 18th fairway. Talk about a slog. Sam Burns and Adam Scott wrapped up the waterlogged action at Oakmont on Sunday as pure also-rans, victimized by bad breaks, bad shots and an inability to handle the rain the way J.J. Spaun did in the group ahead of them to win the title. 'It was just so sloppy the rest of the way,' Scott said of the conditions on the course after returning from a 1 hour, 37 minute delay that started with the then-frontrunners on the eighth tee box. 'We must have looked horrible, both of us playing like that. But that's what can happen in these things. If you get a little off, you're just severely punished.' They came into the day with Burns in first and Scott tied for second, one shot back. Burns shot 8-over 78 to tie for seventh at 4 over. Scott had a 79 to tie for 12th, two shots behind Burns. 'I didn't adapt to those conditions well enough,' said Scott, the 2013 Masters champion. Scott, who made three birdies over the final six holes on Saturday to get in the final group, played those same holes in 5 over in the final round. Burns, who followed a 65 on Friday — the best single round of the tournament — with a 69 on Saturday to take the lead, made two rain-induced double bogeys on the back nine Sunday to punctuate his freefall. 'Look, it's part of it,' he said. 'Everybody's got to deal with it. I'm extremely proud of the way I fought out there today.' Burns' final gasp came when he made double bogey on the 15th hole after being denied relief from a waterlogged lie on the fairway. With water spraying up from the turf on his practice swing, he called one rules official, then another, asking for a drop from the waterlogged lie. No luck. So, he swung away and the ball duck-hooked to the left. He barely advanced the next shot from the saturated rough. By the end of it, he was 3 over, two shots out of the lead, and the tournament was becoming a contest between Spaun and eventual runner-up Robert MacIntyre. 'I was 100% locked in on what I was trying to do,' Burns said about the fateful approach on 15. 'Ultimately, it felt like the water just kind of got in the way, and I went left. It is what it is.' Before that, on the 12th fairway, Burns took a yoga mat-sized pelt on his 122-yard approach shot. The ball sailed far to the left. He saved par there. 'I was in a divot on 11, as well,' Burns said of his first double bogey. 'It's part of it. It happens. You play enough golf, you hit it in divots, and everybody does.' Besides Spaun and MacIntyre, nobody looked quite prepared to deal with what confronted them after they returned from a delay that made some of the greens and fairways unplayable. Conditions got even trickier when the rain started again.

After holing out on 18 in near silence, then signing his scorecard, Burns came out hugged his 14-month-old son, Bear — the sort of gift on Father's Day that no trophy could replace for a 28-year-old who is ranked 22nd and figures to get more chances like these. At 44, the future is less certain for Scott, whose 38 on the front nine had him in second place at the turn — still one behind Burns — but with lots more rain and pain to come. 'It just wasn't easy out there,' Scott said. 'All things being equal, it's Sunday of the U.S. Open, one of the hardest setups, and the conditions were the hardest of the week. Thank God it wasn't like this all week.' ___ AP golf:

US hopes 5-0 win over Trinidad starts upswing after longest losing streak since 2007
SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) — The U.S. hopes a blowout win over the world's 100th-ranked team can start to lessen the pessimism created by the Americans' longest losing streak since 2007. Malik Tillman scored twice and Diego Luna had a pair of assists in a 5-0 rout of Trinidad and Tobago on Sunday in the Americans' CONCACAF Gold Cup opener. 'Really important I think to cut a little bit this — I don't say negativity, but, yes … but it's really important now to start the competition with a good feeling,' U.S. coach Mauricio Pochettino said. Victory in the Group D opener ended a four-game losing streak and came after days of controversy over Christian Pulisic's desire to rest during the Gold Cup and Pochettino not including the star in a pair of pre-tournament friendlies the attacker offered to play in. Tillman scored in the 16th and 41st minutes for his first two international goals, both following giveaways by Alvin Jones, and Patrick Agyemang scored his fourth international goal in the 44th when Luna's shot deflected off a foot. 'It was in our hands to show a reaction and I think we've done it today,' Tillman said. 'We played a good game and it was nice to bounce back, have a good start to the tournament.' Brenden Aaronson added his ninth goal in the 82nd and Haji Wright his fifth just 1 minute, 13 seconds later for the 16th-ranked Americans. 'Malik is a talented player. It's obvious that everyone can see,' Pochettino said. 'October, November, when we met for the first time I think it was difficult to create this relationship that the player need(s) and the coach need(s) to trust and to trust each other. … I think now after a few weeks together I really start to understand him and he starts to understand us. And he's very special, a very special talent and a very special kid.' Luna, a 21-year-old who impressed Pochettino during his debut in January when he insisted he stay on the field with a broken nose, was playing not far from where he grew up and said he had gotten tickets for about 30 family and friends. 'It's especially cool to perform and do this in front of my family and all the people that have worked for me and helped me and suffered for me to be able to be in this position,' he said Saturday. Luna ran onto Jones' back pass, dribbled down the left flank and crossed to Tillman for the second goal, then shot from just inside the penalty area for the goal that glanced off Tillman for a 3-0 lead. 'His performance was really good. He showed his character,' Pochettino said.

Arrives a few hours prior to puck drop. The Americans have won their group in 16 of 17 Gold Cups, along with a second-place finish behind Panama in 2011, and improved their group stage record to 41 wins, one loss and five draws. They play invited guest Saudi Arabia on Thursday at Austin, Texas, then close group play on June 22 against Haiti at Arlington, Texas. Matt Freese was in goal in place of Matt Turner, who had started 14 consecutive competitive matches for the U.S. and 23 of 24 dating to the 2022 World Cup. The lone exception was a Gold Cup group stage game against St. Kitts and Nevis in 2023. Pochettino said he wanted to create competition for Turner, who didn't get into a Crystal Palace match after March 1. The coach said Turner told him he was disappointed with the decision but understood it and would compete to get playing time. ___ AP soccer:
