Osasuna extends Mallorca's winless run to six games in La Liga
PALMA, Spain (AP) — Enzo Boyomo's last-gasp score gave Osasuna a 1-1 draw at Mallorca in La Liga on Monday and extended the home side's winless run to six games.
Mallorca lost its previous five matches but looked on course to win for the first time since before Christmas when Kosovan striker Vedat Muriqi converted a penalty with 10 minutes remaining.
But Boyomo pounced in the third minute of stoppage time to delight the tiny corner of away fans in Son Moix Stadium.
The result of a nervy match leaves both clubs in mid-table, tied on 31 points with the two teams above it, Real Sociedad and Girona.
Osasuna has tied three of its last four league games by the same 1-1 scoreline.

Don Nelson expresses his disappointment with Luka Doncic trade by wearing the star's shoes
OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — Hall of Fame coach Don Nelson was not a fan of the Dallas Mavericks trading Luka Doncic — and chose his footwear for Game 2 of the NBA Finals accordingly. Nelson arrived for the news conference announcing him as the Chuck Daly Lifetime Achievement Award winner, as selected by the National Basketball Coaches Association, wearing a pair of Doncic's signature Jordan Brand sneaker. The reason: He was showing Doncic — who he calls 'my dear friend' — support. 'As a matter of fact, I want everybody to know I'm wearing Luka's shoes, his new shoes from Nike that just got on the market,' Nelson said. 'I'm wearing them in protest for the trade from Dallas. Tremendous mistake by the Dallas franchise to trade him and I want everybody to know that.' Doncic was traded by Dallas to the Los Angeles Lakers this season for Anthony Davis, a blockbuster that the entire league found stunning. Fans in Dallas were furious for months, though some of that seems to have subsided in recent weeks with the Mavericks winning draft lottery and the chance to draft Cooper Flagg No. 1 overall later this month. Nelson said his philosophy on generational players is the one that Red Auerbach taught him: Don't trade those talents. 'His philosophy was when you have a great player — Bill Russell, (John) Havlicek, Sam Jones, you name 'em — you don't lose that player,' Nelson said. 'You keep him for a lifetime. You put his number up and you honor that player. That's been my philosophy.' Nelson has deep ties to Dallas, so his reaction to the Doncic trade is understandable. He coached the Mavericks for eight seasons and his son, Donnie Nelson, was an executive with Dallas from 2005 through 2021. ___ AP NBA:

Ryan Fox wins Canadian Open with 'best shot I've ever hit' in playoff to beat Sam Burns
Associated Press CALEDON, Ontario (AP) — Ryan Fox of New Zealand won for the second time in five weeks on the PGA Tour with another memorable shot in a playoff, this time a 3-wood to 7 feet on the fourth extra hole Sunday to beat Sam Burns in the RBC Canadian Open. Fox won the Myrtle Beach Classic last month by chipping in for birdie to win a three-man playoff. This one on the TPC Toronto at Osprey Valley took a little longer. What turned out to be the winning shot might be more memorable. Fox smoked a 3-wood that landed softly just left of the pin and settled 7 feet away. Burns pulled his 3-wood some 55 feet left of the front right pin. He ran his eagle putt 8 feet by and missed that one. Fox missed his eagle try before tapping in for birdie. 'To be honest, Sam and I had a bit of a pillow fight for three holes,' Fox said. 'But that shot I hit on 18, that 3-wood, was probably the best shot I've ever hit. It would have been nice to make the putt. But hey, I'll take it.' Fox holed a birdie putt from just inside 18 feet on the par-5 18th in regulation for a 4-under 66 that allowed him to join Sam Burns at 18-under 262. Burns had finished some two hours earlier with a birdie on the final hole for a 62. They played the 18th four more times — the PGA Tour moved the pin position from far left to front right after two extra holes — and there was nothing compelling about the extra holes. Burns, regarded as one of the best putters on the PGA Tour, had a birdie putt from just over 5 feet on the first playoff for the win. He left that out to the right. The next time down 18, Fox went for the green and pushed his 3-wood. The collar of rough stopped it from going in the water. He pitched to 12 feet and had that birdie putt for the win, but left it a foot short. Pillow fight, indeed. On the third time playing the 18th in overtime, Burns had a lob wedge that was short and to the right, spinning off the green and nearly into the water. Fox hit his 40 feet out to the right. They both made par. Fox delivered the goods on the final hole and now has two wins in just over a month. The victory moved the 38-year-old Fox from No. 75 to No. 32 in the world, getting him into the U.S. Open next week for being among the top 60 in the world ranking. Kevin Yu birdied the last hole for a 66 to finish alone in third, one shot out of the playoff. He narrowly missed out on the top 60 to get to Oakmont next week. But Yu joined Cameron Young and Matt McCarty as earning the top three spots for the British Open next month for players not already eligible. Fox already was in the British Open from his victory in the BMW PGA Championship in 2023, the flagship event on the European tour. Fox now has eight wins worldwide — two on the PGA Tour, four on the European tour and two on the PGA Tour of Australasia. Burns was hopeful of ending more than two years without a victory, his last title coming in the final year of the World Golf Championships-Match Play in 2023. Young shot a 65 to tie for fourth. He was within range of Burns when Young made an incredible par on the 17th, going from the trees on the right to mangled left on the rough, gouging that out to 15 feet and making the putt. But needing birdie on the par-5 closing hole to catch Burns, the clubhouse leader at the time, Young flushed a 3-wood into the breeze and over the green into the trees, leaving him virtually no shot. It took two to get on the green and he made bogey to finish two shots behind. 'I couldn't have hit two better shots on the last hole. I don't hit 3-wood that far, and it's blowing straight into the wind, and it decided to bounce all the way to the back woods,' Young said. 'I thought in the air I was going to have about a 12-footer to win the tournament, and it ended up somewhere I was going to struggle to make par, let alone make a 4. Pretty upset.' ___ AP golf: in this topic

George Kirby's 14-strikeout stunner ends Mariners' 5-game skid and turns around his own season

(AP Photo/Mark J. Terrill) ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — By the time George Kirby left the mound for good with 14 strikeouts Sunday, the rangy right-hander had turned his season around in a superb overall performance. A couple of innings later, the Seattle Mariners were also headed in the right direction again with the end of their five-game losing streak. Advertisement Kirby dominated the Los Angeles Angels during the Mariners' 3-2 victory, racking up a career high in strikeouts without walking a batter over seven innings of two-hit, two-run ball. 'That's about as good as I've seen George,' Seattle manager Dan Wilson said. 'He was filling up the zone, but with quality strikes. He just had everything going. ... Pretty exceptional work right there.' Kirby (1-3) matched Miami's Max Meyer for the most strikeouts in a game by a major leaguer this season while earning his first victory of 2025. He retired his first 11 batters and his final 10 while issuing no walks and frustrating the Angels while basically throwing only two pitches — his four-seam fastball and his slider. 'We needed a big one today, and hopefully this sets the tone for us,' Kirby said. 'Hopefully we keep rolling. It's always good when you go out there and give your team the best chance to win after a couple of losses.' Advertisement The Mariners had been losing — and so had Kirby, whose season didn't even begin until May because of a shoulder injury. He lost all three of his previous starts this season, and a line drive even glanced off his face Tuesday against Baltimore, although he was fine. Kirby lowered his season ERA from 8.56 to 6.53 with this outing while looking more like the player who made the AL All-Star team in 2023 and won 27 games over the past two seasons as a workhorse starter in a rotation currently plagued with injuries. 'Everything was working really well today, so it's just a great sign as I'm progressing through the season,' Kirby said. Kirby had only one blip in the entire afternoon: Mike Trout delivered a two-out single in the fourth, and Taylor Ward followed with his 18th homer on a slider that wasn't exactly where Kirby wanted it. Advertisement But Kirby gathered himself and struck out Chris Taylor with a slider on the corner to end the fourth — and then he finished with three consecutive 1-2-3 innings. His seventh was particularly satisfying because he struck out Trout and Ward looking. 'After the game, Dan came to shake my hand (and said), 'Hell yeah, the two guys that got you before, you finished them off,'' Kirby said. 'That's awesome. I'm just really glad I was able to go out there and finish the seventh.' Seattle got another boost because Andrés Muñoz survived the ninth inning, striking out Trout with a runner on first to end it. The closer also got himself headed in the right direction again after blowing back-to-back save opportunities and subsequently getting the past week off. The Mariners are headed to Arizona for a three-game series, and they're hoping Kirby's leadership carries over. Advertisement 'It's probably one of the most important starts we've had, with the way our pitching is going and George being able to come out and put on really the performance of his career,' catcher Mitch Garver said. 'We know who George is, and that's the guy.' ___ AP MLB:
