NYCFC beats Orlando, 2-1 as Martínez scores in stoppage time, Freese has 6 saves
Orlando (9-6-8) is winless four straight.
Julián Fernández, on the counter-attack, played a ball-ahead to a sprinting Martínez, who outraced the defense and then beat goalkeeper Pedro Gallese — who moved to the edge of the penalty area — with a rolling shot inside the right post in the first minute of stoppage time.
NYCFC (10-8-4) scored on Kyle Smith's own goal to make it 1-1 in the 87th minute. Fernández played a corner kick in to the center of the area and Andrés Perea's header to the back post was parried by diving Gallese but redirected teammate Rodrigo Schlegel's clearance attempt into the net.
Matt Freese stopped six shots for New York City.
Robin Jansson scored his first goal of the season to give Orlando a 1-0 lead in the 36th minute. Martín Ojeda played a corner kick to the back post that was centered by David Brekalo's header before Jannson played the ball high off his chest and bounced a volley into the net from point-blank range. Ojeda joined Luís Carlos "Nani" Almeida da Cunha (2019) as the only players in club history to produce at least 10 goals and 10 assists in a single season.
Orlando outshot NYCFC 25-11, 7-4 on target.
Gallese finished with three saves.
New York City also beat Orlando 2-1 at home on March 8.

Bing Crosby Stakes Sings At Del Mar On July 26
A talented nine horse field will race to reach the finish line first in the grade 1 Bing Crosby ... More Stakes at Del Mar Back in 1937, Bing Crosby opened a piece of heaven on earth down at old Del Mar. No one is quite sure if this crooning superstar realized he was creating a haven for the sport of Thoroughbred racing, but he likely had a pretty good idea this seaside oval would flourish. In fitting fashion, one of the top races of the summer meet is named in his honor. Garnering grade 1 status and offering a Breeders' Cup Sprint berth to the winner, this six-furlong dash over the Del Mar dirt has long provided season highlights and this year's edition looks to be more of the same. The 2025 Bing Crosby offers up a talented nine horse field that will have somebody singing at the end. Let's take a look at the entrants and provide a thought on each. Runners are listed by post position with trainer, jockey, and morning line. 1 Crazy Mason (Greg Sacco, Christopher Elliot 6-1 ) -Shipping from the East Coast, this son of Coal Front has won three of four starts this year. Two starts back he won the Carter Stakes at Aqueduct. Would it be Crazy to think he could ship and win??? His closing style could have him there at the end considering the front-end speed in the race. 2 Dr. Venkman (Mark Glatt, Antonio Fresu 4-1 )-This son of Ghostzapper has three wins and four seconds in eight lifetime starts. He has been the bridesmaid in both stats this year, but we think he is the one here. A stalking trip might just provide that trip to the circle. 3 Hejazi (Bob Baffert, Juan Hernandez 7-2 )- Nobody has won more Stakes races at Del Mar than Bob Baffert. He is not likely to add to that total here, but this New York-bred son of Bernardini can impact the race by contesting the early pace. Hejazi has two career wins, but has been in the money in eight of ten lifetime starts. 4 Smooth Crusein (Karen Headley, Kyle Frey 20-1 )- This three-year-old Florida-bred will be stepping up in class here. He ran against older horses in his last start and finished third in a four horse field at Santa Anita. This is a big ask for this son of Girvin and he can only hope for a Smooth trip. 5 World Record (Rodolphe Brisset, Flavien Prat 3-1 )- The speed of the speed in this one. Insanely fast early, his last two wins saw him on the lead with opening quarter miles that were 21 and change. If they leave this son of Gun Runner alone on the lead it will be over early. The home stretch at Del Mar will see plenty of excitement in the Bing Crosby Stakes on July 26 6 Roll on Big Joe (Robert Hess, Julien Leparoux 6-1 )- Grandson of Victory Gallop has four wins in five starts this year and was quite impressive in winning the grade 3 Kelly's Landing at Churchill Downs in his last start. In the money in fourteen of eighteen lifetime starts but has only managed one second in three starts at Del Mar. 7 Mbagnick (John Sadler, Armando Ayuso 5-1 )- After we figure out how to say this Chilean-bred's name we will decide if he has a real shot. John Sadler has saddled many winners at Del Mar, and this son of Practical Joke took'em gate to wire in winning his last start at this same distance on June 13. 8 Spirit of Makena (George Papapodromo, Abel Cedillo 20-1 )-This son of Ghostzapper won four of his first five career starts including two stakes victories. Injury sidelined him all of 2024 and he has a third-place finish in two starts this year but is winless since May of 2023. Coming back off such a layoff takes a lot of Spirit. The Bing and this field is a big asking. 9 Lovesick Blues (Librado Baracio, Geovani Franco 20-1 )-This California-bred is the veteran of the group with forty lifetime starts. Always a hard-knocker, this son of Grazen has been in the top three twenty-six times with eight wins. Although not likely to win, he is a horse that can be there at the end and pump up the exotic payouts.

Jets quarterback Justin Fields dislocates toe, team evaluating injury day-to-day
'I know it was a quick throw, so I'm assuming someone stepped on his toe,' coach Aaron Glenn said after the Jets' second practice of training camp. 'It had to be because of the nature of the call that we had as far as offensive play call. I want to look at the tape and be sure.' Get Starting Point A guide through the most important stories of the morning, delivered Monday through Friday. Enter Email Sign Up Fields spent a few minutes in the injury tent on the sideline as trainers examined him before a cart came out to transport him into the facility. Fields sat in the passenger seat next to the driver in the cart and then got up under his own power before stepping inside to be further evaluated. Advertisement Glenn stopped the team period after Fields was hurt and the Jets ran special teams drills. 'When anybody goes down, there's a lump in my throat,' Glenn said. 'Listen, I hate injuries for any player, but the thing is I want to make sure that I understand exactly what the injury is before I move forward on my thought process.' Advertisement Fields signed a two-year, $40 million contract as a free agent in March after playing last season in Pittsburgh and is expected to be New York's starter this season. Veteran Tyrod Taylor, the team's oldest player who turns 36 next month, is the backup and replaced Fields in team drills. 'I think the most important part is, if anything does happen to Justin, I don't think there's any drop-off as far as what we want to do when it comes to play calls,' Glenn said. 'Very similar when you talk about skill set, so that was like enticing for us. And then the leadership ability ... you could just tell the players really gravitate to him. When he says something, everybody really listens, even the coaching staff. He's been around this league a long time. He knows what it takes to win, and he's a really good person. So, we're all excited to have that guy here. 'Listen, Justin is who he is and if something happens to him, we've got Tyrod and we're ready to go.' New York also has Adrian Martinez, the 2024 United Football League MVP, and rookie Brady Cook on its roster, but neither has thrown a pass in an NFL game. Glenn noted that Martinez was in camp with the Lions in 2023, so he has some familiarity with the offense that the Jets are running with Tanner Engstrand, Detroit's former passing game coordinator. The news of Fields's injury sent Jets fans into a frenzy on social media, with many recalling how Aaron Rodgers's torn Achilles' tendon in the team's opening game in 2023 sunk their Super Bowl hopes and how Zach Wilson missed time early in the 2022 season with a knee injury. Advertisement Glenn urged fans to remain calm because 'I've been there and done that' — referring to how he adjusted to various injuries in Detroit last season as the Lions' defensive coordinator — and it's still early in training camp. 'I understand how this league is and I understand how social media starts to take over and everybody starts to panic,' Glenn said. 'The one thing I would say is, listen, we have a number of men in that locker room that want to win. And we have a number of men in the locker room that's learning how to win and it's my job to make sure that I push that over the edge. And that's my plan.'

Bryson DeChambeau tells all about powerful note USA Ryder Cup captain put in his locker at The Open
Bullish Bryson DeChambeau fired a blistering Ryder Cup warning as he revealed personal notes of inspiration left by skipper Keegan Bradley inside lockers at The Open. The American ace finally cracked some of The Championship code with a superb closing 64 to race into a Top 10 finish. DeChambeau was superb over the final three days as he banished the misery of an opening 78 to charge through the pack and prove he can do on the links. READ MORE: LIV Golf superstar comes out swinging over Shane Lowry storm and claims players are stuck in no win situations READ MORE: Inside the mind of Scottie Scheffler as superstars pal reveals s**t talks of Open champion in waiting The LIV star has not been able to add to his two majors this year, but the Bethpage battle against Europe offers the chance of a magical ending. DeChambeau's Portrush performance has fully punched his ticket into the home side for New York and he has warned Luke Donald's team to fear the worst. Captain Bradley has been pumping up his troops and was at it again in Northern Ireland as he team star revealed: 'I talked with him briefly and then he put something in our lockers that was pretty inspirational. 'It's a personal message. In essence, yes. For sure. It meant a lot. This year's no joke. We're tired of it. We're tired of losing. 'I hope I can bring a lot of energy and a tsunami of a crowd that's going to be rooting for Team USA.' DeChambeau was asked about the rumour President Donald Trump, a mate of his, would be at Bethpage to cheer him along, but he smiled: 'I don't know. I think he's got bigger problems on his hands right now!' DeChambeau's LIV experiences will aid as he continued: 'We have the most wins on tour right now as the Crushers. The way I've personally led my team is I've let them be their individual self, their best individual self to add to the team. That's it. Don't try to put someone in a bubble and say you need to do this, you need to do that. 'What I learned best from my college coach, Josh Gregory, was just that, let me be me, which was amazing. I've let them be them. That's the way I'll move forward in team competition.' DeChambeau's final 54 holes at Portrush were sensational, which brought a few fan jibes about a LIV event. His punch of the air as he completed the last three days in 16-under par said much about conquering the Open challenge. DeChambeau turned his week around superbly after a harrowing day one and said: 'Normally I'd be super pissed and frustrated, which I was rightfully so, because I thought I played pretty well and shot seven-over. I said to myself: I'm going to do something different this time. 'I've been working on myself and how I am and how I act and whatnot. I'm going to transition my brain to say: I'm going to give it everything I have no matter what happens. I'm going to go full force, attack . 'That's what I did for the past three days, I said, every time is go time, like you've got to come back from five, six back. That's the mentality I had. 'I said I'm going to give myself a chance. I'm not going to pout. I'm going to be free. I always told you guys I like it when it's fair conditions. I can play well. I still have to crack the code when it's raining and windy. But I feel like we're getting close to some opportunities and solutions for that. 'I was really proud of the way I turned it around and gave myself actually some hope on the third round.' DeChambeau received a rapturous reception down the 72nd hole and he beamed: 'I think I look at the game a little bit different than others. I want to win. I think we all know that. But there's more than winning. 'There's how you influence a younger population, how you showcase yourself and what you do for others, what value do you give them. The only reason we're getting paid the numbers we're getting paid is because of those individuals out there in the stands. 'Once I started realising that, I started changing my mindset so they see me more in the light that I'm trying to showcase this great game. 'I hope that I can add to the game of golf from outside. YouTube, content, entertainment. It's going to be a cool give-back sort of thing. 'That's the stuff that excites me now. Not more than tournament golf, but almost as much. I think having another identity with that saying: Hey, look, I'm not just a professional, but I'm an entertainer as well has shown people the true side of myself. 'It's a great Open venue. I think it was a solid setup. It would be a lot of fun to come back. It's a great town.' DeChambeau's persona is very different to Scheffler and he said: 'Scottie's in a league of his own right now. I played with him a lot in college and he was not that good, so he's figured out a lot of stuff since then. It's really impressive to see and something we can all learn from for sure. 'I think he's a family man. He really respects his family and he wants that to be the most important thing for him. I have full respect for that. At some point I will have a family. 'For him, I think it's more important to take care of his family, which he's done a great job and tremendous job of balancing the two, being the best golfer in the world and being a family man.'
