Columbus salvage 2-2 tie with Nashville SC thanks to own goal in 81st minute
Associated Press
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — The Columbus Crew capitalized on a Nashville SC own goal in the 81st minute to salvage a 2-2 tie on Wednesday, keeping the teams deadlocked for third place in the Eastern Conference standings at 28 points apiece.
Hany Mukhtar scored at 78 minutes to put Nashville ahead 2-1. The Crew responded when a service from Malte Amundsen bounced off the leg of Jeisson Palacios near the left post to level it.
With the draw, Nashville (8-4-4) stayed unbeaten in May with five wins and three draws. The Crew (7-2-7) have four ties and a loss in their past five matches and have not won since May 3 when they beat Charlotte FC 4-2.
Columbus keeper Nicholas Hagen's late stop of Andy Najar in extra time preserved the win. Hagen recorded four saves in his second start substituting for Patrick Schulte.
Sam Surridge scored two minutes in for Nashville's first goal. Diego Rossi countered to make it 1-1 in the 69th minute when his right-footed shot from the middle of the box found its way to the net's lower left.

The Sports Report: It's bad news, good news for UCLA
From Tim Willert: UCLA's run at the Women's College World Series ended Sunday, two innings after Bruins slugger Megan Grant extended it. Laura Mealer's bases-loaded, walk-off single to right field in the bottom of the ninth propelled Tennessee to a 5-4 win and a semifinal meeting with Texas at 9 a.m. PDT Monday. The Volunteers (47-16) did what UCLA couldn't in the ninth: deliver with the bases loaded. The Bruins got singles from Savannah Pola and Jordan Woolery followed by an intentional walk to Grant. But Alexis Ramirez grounded out to first to end the inning. Taylor Pannell hit a deep fly to left field to lead off Tennessee's half of the ninth, a ball that caromed off Rylee Slimp's glove and hit the white padding on the top of the wall but didn't leave the field. The play was reviewed and ruled a double. Mealer, who knocked in two runs in the first inning to give the Volunteers an early 2-0 lead, delivered again, this time on a 2-2 pitch from Taylor Tinsley, who came on in relief of UCLA starter Kaitlyn Terry. 'Just a great battle to the end,' UCLA coach Kelly Inouye-Perez said. 'I could not be more proud. Period. Just the ability for us to be able to fight, the ability for us to come back, the epic [rally], just down to the last pitch ... there's something about what UCLA softball can do, with your backs against the wall and just rising to the occasion creates some amazing memories.'

'No,' he said when asked if his Dodgers had the New York Yankees' proverbial number, having followed up their defeat of the Bronx Bombers in last year's World Series with two impressive wins to start this weekend's rematch at Dodger Stadium. 'I think we've had their number the last two nights,' Roberts said, 'but today's a different day.' Was it ever. Twenty-four hours after a total annihilation of the Yankees in a 16-run rout on Saturday, the Dodgers suffered the kind of setback that has so often plagued them this season, squandering the chance to build further momentum in a 7-3 loss that prevented a series sweep.

Ramírez extended Cleveland's lead to 2-0 when he connected on a slider from Angels starter Jack Kochanowicz (3-7) and put it into the stands in right-center for his team-leading 11th homer to lead off the fourth. Nolan Jones added a two-run single with the bases loaded for the other runs in the inning as the Guardians took two of three games in the weekend series. Continue reading here Angels box score MLB scores MLB standings From Benjamin Royer: UCLA baseball is one step closer to earning a trip to Omaha. The Bruins continued to roll in every facet of the game in the Los Angeles Regional final, scoring early and trusting their bullpen to defeat UC Irvine 8-5 on Sunday night. The Bruins advance to the super regionals of the NCAA tournament for the first time since 2019 and will host the Texas San Antonio at Jackie Robinson Stadium this week. UTSA defeated Texas 7-4 in the Austin Regional final, taking down the national second-seed Longhorns to advance to its first-ever super regional. If UCLA beats UTSA, it'll advance to the College World Series in Omaha for the first time since 2013. Continue reading here From Shotgun Spratling: USC baseball wanted to be aggressive knowing it was entering a hostile environment, playing in front of a sold-out crowd of 4,347 at Goss Stadium. The Trojans tried to set the tone early. Instead, it backfired, costing them early opportunities, early momentum and ultimately Sunday night's matchup in a 14-1 loss to Oregon State in the Corvallis Regional final. USC has a chance for redemption Monday as Oregon State's win forces a winner-take-all regional final at 3 p.m. PDT (ESPNU). Continue reading here From Benjamin Royer: In the game early Sunday that advanced UC Irvine to the Sunday night game against UCLA.... Under threat of elimination, UC Irvine's bats emerged once again. Bringing the power for a second straight game, the Anteaters connected for five home runs Sunday, eliminating Arizona State 11-6 in the Los Angeles Regional of the NCAA baseball tournament. Needing to win four straight games to advance to the super regionals after losing to Arizona State on Friday, UC Irvine is halfway to its goal. Alonso Reyes — who had just one home run in 2025 entering Sunday's game — ripped a two-run home run off of Sun Devils starter Derek Schaefer in the fourth inning. Later in the inning, after Arizona State coach Willie Bloomquist went with Lucas Kelly out of the bullpen, Chase Call cleared the batter's eye in dead center field for a two-run home run to give the Anteaters a 6-1 lead. Continue reading here From Anthony De Leon: Sunday's matchup between the Sparks and Phoenix Mercury felt like déjà vu. When the Sparks faced Phoenix last month, the game ended with a failed Sparks comeback. In a twist of fate, Sunday's comeback belonged to Phoenix. Unable to stay ahead after building an 18-point lead, the Sparks fell 85-80 to the Mercury at Arena for their third consecutive loss. As with the first meeting, the third quarter proved to be the Sparks' undoing. After scoring just seven points in the third quarter of their loss to Phoenix on May 21, the Sparks were outscored 24-9 in the third Sunday.

79 detained as more violence disrupts PSG's Champions League celebrations
PARIS (AP) — French authorities detained an additional 79 people as violence continued to disrupt PSG's celebrations of its historic Champions League title, the Paris police chief said on Monday. After more than 100,000 people welcomed the return of PSG players to the French capital following their 5-0 thrashing of Inter Milan in the Champions League final on Saturday, a second night of scattered incidents ensued. Laurent Nunez, the Paris police prefect, told RTL radio that groups of individuals gathered close to PSG stadium and on the Champs-Elysees avenue after midnight, causing trouble. Nunez said some using barriers blocked the main ring road surrounding Paris for a while, and that other troublemakers set off fireworks and tried to vandalize shops. Nunez said calm was restored at 3:30 a.m. on Monday. PSG had earlier put on an open-top bus parade in the city for its fans. The winners of European club soccer's biggest prize arrived in Paris on Sunday afternoon and headed to France's most famous avenue, the Champs-Élysées, which overnight Saturday saw acts of violence and clashes with riot police. Police had made more than 500 arrests across France on Saturday night. 'The overall number of arrests is very high, it is completely unprecedented,' Nunez said. Celebrations were largely peaceful but degenerated into violence in some areas. A 17-year-old boy was stabbed to death in the western city of Dax during a PSG street party after the final, the national police service said. In Paris, a man in his 20s was killed in Paris when his scooter was hit by a car during PSG celebrations. ___
