Dallas Baptist hits 3 HRs, beats Rhode Island 6-2 at Baton Rouge Regional

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — Chayton Krauss, Keaton Grady and Luke Heefner each hit a home run on Friday night to help Dallas Baptist beat Rhode Island 6-2 at the Baton Rouge Regional.
Micahel Dattalo led off the first inning with a single and Nathan Humpreys followed with an RBI double before Krauss hit a two-out two-run shot off Trystan Levesque (8-2) and Grady hit the next pitch over the wall in left to give the No. 2 seed Patriots (41-16) a 4-0 lead.
Dallas Baptist, making its 11th consecutive NCAA Tournament appearance (the event was canceled in 2020 due to COVID), plays top-seed LSU and Rhode Island takes on No. 4 seed Arkansas-Little Rock in loser-out game on Saturday.
Ryan Borgerg (9-4) pitched five innings and gave up two runs on five hits with six strikeouts. Luke Pettitte — the son of Andy Pettitte, who won five World Series titles with the New York Yankees — threw 1 1/3 scoreless innings and earned his second save of the season.
Anthony DePino drew a two-out walk and scored on a single by Reece Moroney in the third and hit a solo shot in the fifth for No. 3 seed Rhode Island (38-20).
Poole and Kraus two consecutive two-out walks before Grady hit an RBI single up the middle to cap the scoring in the eighth.
The Rams are making their third NCAA Tournament appearance in program history and their first since 2016.

Top prospect Roman Anthony gets first career hit in second MLB game

BOSTON — Red Sox outfielder Roman Anthony, the top-rated prospect in all of baseball, hit a two-run double on Tuesday night in Boston's game against Tampa Bay for his first career base hit. A day after going hitless with an RBI groundout in his major league debut , Anthony came up with runners on second and third in the first inning and drove the ball to left to give the Red Sox a 2-0 lead. The 21-year-old second-round draft pick went viral over the weekend when he hit a 497-foot grand slam in Triple-A Worcester. He batted .288 with 10 homers and 29 RBIs in 58 games for the WooSox this season. Anthony's call-up on Monday was so sudden his parents didn't have time to make the trip from Florida, but they were at Fenway Park on Tuesday night to see his second game. ___ AP MLB:

Tesla asks its remaining fans to make 90 second ads. You might recognize this TeslaVision campaign seeking fan-submitted ads as a callback to the Project Loveday contest from 2017 (that was the year the Model 3 started shipping, but the new Roadster and Semi did not). Beyond the request for free advertising labor amid an ongoing brand crisis and political quagmire, Tesla's 2025 request is also designed to try to flood social media, requiring posts on YouTube, X, and Instagram by July 17th to maybe win a Model Y and a trip to Gigafactory Texas.
