Scottish NFL star Jamie Gillan on New York, rugby and black pudding
Rugby rather than American football had been Gillan's game growing up in the Highlands and then Edinburgh until his dad was redeployed with the RAF and the entire family – including a 16-year-old Gillan – decanted to Maryland. How different Gillan's life would have been had he stayed in Scotland – he may have realised his early ambition of becoming a professional rugby player – but the enforced switch to the United States has undoubtedly been life-changing in many ways, the punter penning a three-year $10million contract extension with the Giants earlier this year. With his long flowing hair, he remains one of the most recognisable figures in the NFL and is still happy to keep flying the flag for Scotland while doing so. 'Yeah, the Scottish Hammer, that's still what I get called,' he confirms. 'It's funny and it's cool. And I definitely represent Scotland when I'm out there. It's been pretty cool, the whole journey to where I'm at now. 'It was phenomenal to get the new contract done. My wife was very happy, my family was very happy, and I was very happy. First of all, to be back with the New York Giants. I really enjoy my time here and like the people that are in the building. My teammates, Casey (Kreiter) and Graham (Gano) are like family. 'But I wouldn't say I can just relax now because the NFL is a revolving door and it just doesn't work like that. You've got to stay primed all the time. I'm just very thankful and excited for another opportunity to play a few more years here and do my job well. 'I remember in Cleveland being around Britton Colquitt who was in year nine at the time and I'm getting close to that now. You get to understand the game a bit better and what works right for you, your body, your mentality, everything. It's great, it really is.' Gillan seems surprised to learn that it's been more than a decade since he and the family left Scotland, a lot of water passing under numerous bridges in the intervening years. Now married and with a young son, Archie, in tow, New York is now Gillan's base but Scotland will always be home. 'Time has flown by, I'll tell you that,' he confirms. 'But I still remember loads of things from Scotland. I had some real good pals. And there are a lot of things I miss. I actually really miss club sports in Scotland, either watching others playing or playing yourself. 'Even just the smell of walking around Edinburgh. I don't know if it's from the distilleries or something. I miss some of the food as well - black pudding in a roll with egg and bacon, come on! And I miss seeing some of my extended family. They're a lot of fun to be around.' A trip home is on the to-do list, although Gillan jokes he might wait until two-year-old Archie has passed the wriggling toddler stage before attempting the cross-Atlantic flights. 'I was back three years ago, took my wife out there for the first time and we had some fun,' he recalls. 'Since then we've had Archie, plus the whole NICU thing [Archie spent time in intensive care as a baby] and all that - everything's just been very fast. 'And with the little man, I wouldn't want to put anybody through a seven-hour flight with his little butt on there going crazy! But we're talking about getting out there next year when he's a little bit older to see all the family.' Rugby remains Gillan's true passion. He caught up with Scotland head coach Gregor Townsend and the squad during their North American tour last summer and still follows their matches on TV. 'I love watching the Six Nations with a few of my buds from Cleveland who are rugby players,' he reveals. 'It's not always easy to find all of the matches but the Six Nations is streamed every year on TV. So usually we'll have a big breakfast and start with the first match which is usually around 9am our time. "I love watching rugby, love watching the guys. Scotland, the team looks great. I absolutely love watching the boys play so I'm excited for next year as well.' So, could the likes of Finn Russell or Blair Kinghorn make a similar switch to become NFL kickers? Gillan doesn't dismiss it out of hand. 'I think with the right coaching or if they spent enough time practising then they definitely could. When you kick footballs out of hand with no rushers or anybody timing your get-off time, you can go well. But it's good for someone in that situation to actually feel what it's like to have a snap come at you from 14 yards and guys rushing you before you kick. 'I actually met up with the Scottish rugby team last summer in Washington DC so I got to meet Gregor Townsend and the boys. Adam Hastings had a go as a spiral punter. He was spiralling really well. I said they better not show that tape to the Giants or they might want a different Scotsman!' The NFL regularly takes matches across Europe and Gillan reckons they should be considering adding Murrayfield to the venue roster, too. 'I'd love that because I really enjoyed the game in London two years ago playing at the Tottenham Stadium. That's a beautiful stadium and the locals were unbelievable. I can't see why it wouldn't be feasible to have an NFL game at Murrayfield when 67,000 people can sit there. 'You're right in the centre of Edinburgh. It's a good spot. People drive six hours to go and watch a game here. When you put it like that, Murrayfield is not a hard place to get to, to go and watch a game. It would be a lot of fun.'

MLB roundup: Giants score on wild pitch to edge Braves in 10th
June 7 - Tyler Fitzgerald, who was picked off to end the ninth inning, raced home as the 10th-inning automatic runner on a two-out, two-strike wild pitch by Atlanta Braves reliever Pierce Johnson, giving the host San Francisco Giants a 5-4 victory on Friday. After Spencer Bivens stranded the bases loaded in the top of the 10th, Fitzgerald advanced from second to third on Jung Hoo Lee's grounder that resulted in the inning's second out. Fitzgerald then dashed to the plate when Braves catcher Sean Murphy couldn't track down Johnson's errant curveball in the dirt. Bivens (2-2) was credited with the win, the Giants' third straight. The Braves, who rallied from an early 3-0 deficit to force extra innings, dropped their fifth straight. Johnson (1-2) took the loss. Yankees 9, Red Sox 6 Jazz Chisholm Jr. hit a two-out, three-run homer in a five-run first inning off Walker Buehler for host New York, which raced out to a big lead and earned a victory over Boston in the first meeting of the season between the rivals. Chisholm added an RBI single in the third and is now 5-for-7 lifetime in the regular season against Buehler. He finished with three hits and is 8-for-16 in four games since returning Tuesday from a 28-game absence due to an oblique strain. Anthony Volpe hit a two-run homer in the first but left the game with a left elbow contusion after being hit by a changeup in the second. A 2024 World Series hero for the Los Angeles Dodgers, Buehler (4-4) was tagged for seven runs -- five earned -- on seven hits in two innings. Marcelo Mayer hit his first career homer in the fifth and Rafael Devers slugged a two-run drive in the seventh for the Red Sox, who lost for the ninth time in 12 games. Athletics 5, Orioles 4 Jacob Wilson recorded three hits and two RBIs, Denzel Clarke made a spectacular catch and Mason Miller posted a five-out save to help the Athletics notch a victory over Baltimore at West Sacramento, Calif. Lawrence Butler and Brent Rooker each had two hits and one RBI to help the Athletics win their second straight game after losing 20 of their previous 21 outings. Jackson Holliday homered among three hits and Dylan Carlson also went deep for Baltimore, which had a season-best six-game winning streak snapped. Rays 4, Marlins 3 Zack Littell won in his sixth straight decision, Jonathan Aranda had two RBIs and red-hot Tampa Bay edged visiting Miami. Littell (6-5) allowed one run on six hits. Aranda was 2-for-4 and Junior Caminero added two doubles. Taylor Walls (double), Curtis Mead (stolen base) and Matt Thaiss (RBI) had two hits apiece from the bottom of the order. The Rays improved to 13-3 since May 20 while climbing to a season-best five games over .500. Miami's Agustin Ramirez was 3-for-4 with a solo home run and Otto Lopez hit a two-run homer. Edward Cabrera (2-2) surrendered three runs (one earned) on six hits over four innings in the Marlins' fifth straight loss. Nationals 2, Rangers 0 Michael Soroka threw six scoreless innings and Alex Call homered to propel Washington over visiting Texas. Soroka (3-3) allowed just two hits while striking out seven and walking one. Kyle Finnegan secured his 18th save of the season. Robert Hassell III drove in the game's first run in the second inning and Call doubled the lead in the seventh with his first home run of the year. Patrick Corbin (3-5) -- a former Nationals pitcher -- threw an eight-inning complete game, allowing two earned runs on five hits. Adolis Garcia and Josh Smith each tallied a hit for the Rangers, who dropped their fourth straight game. Astros 4, Guardians 2 Christian Walker's two-run double highlighted a three-run fifth inning and Colton Gordon allowed one run over five innings for his first major league win in Houston's victory over Cleveland. Jeremy Pena extended his hitting streak to 12 games with his second consecutive three-hit contest and Brendan Rodgers clubbed his first homer of 2025 for the Astros, who have won nine of 12. David Fry clubbed his first homer of the season for one of his two hits and Jose Ramirez extended his on-base streak to 32 games for the Guardians, who have dropped seven of 11. Tigers 3, Cubs 1 Tarik Skubal pitched 7 2/3 strong innings, Spencer Torkelson hit the go-ahead homer and Detroit downed Chicago to open a three-game interleague series. In a matchup of AL and NL Central first-place teams, Skubal (6-2) allowed one run while scattering eight hits. Will Vest got the last four outs for his 10th save. Jahmai Jones, just called up from Triple-A Toledo, also homered for Detroit. Gleyber Torres added an RBI single. Kyle Tucker had two hits and drove in the lone Chicago run. Diamondbacks-Reds suspended Visiting Arizona and Cincinnati were tied 3-3 after six innings in the opener of their three-game series when the game was suspended due to rain. The contest will resume at 2:10 p.m. ET on Saturday, and the regularly scheduled game will begin 40 minutes following the end of the suspended game, but not prior to the regularly scheduled time of 4:10 p.m ET. Ketel Marte and Geraldo Perdomo hit back-to-back homers in the three-run third inning while Tim Tawa had two hits and a run for Arizona, which has won four in a row. TJ Friedl and Christian Encarnacion-Strand homered while Jose Trevino and Encarnacion-Strand had two hits apiece for the Reds, who have lost four of five. Blue Jays 6, Twins 4 George Springer and Addison Barger homered as Toronto rallied for a win over Minnesota. Bo Bichette added a two-run single for Toronto, which overcame a 3-0 deficit to win its third game in a row. The Blue Jays improved to 8-1 in their past nine contests. Trevor Larnach homered for Minnesota. Royce Lewis collected three hits, and Lewis, Christian Vazquez and Kody Clemens each knocked in a run. Pirates 5, Phillies 4 Nick Gonzales' sacrifice fly in the bottom of the ninth scored Adam Frazier and lifted Pittsburgh to a comeback win over Philadelphia in a game that began late following a one-hour, 23-minute rain delay. Gonzales' walk-off RBI secured the Pirates their first win over Philadelphia this season. The Phillies played without Bryce Harper, who was not in the lineup due to a sore right wrist. Padres 2, Brewers 0 Manny Machado homered and five pitchers combined on a four-hitter as visiting San Diego opened a three-game series against Milwaukee. Randy Vasquez, Wandy Peralta (3-0), Jeremiah Estrada and Adrian Morejon held the Brewers scoreless through eight innings before Robert Suarez pitched the ninth for his 20th save in 22 opportunities. Martin Maldonado had two hits for San Diego, which has won four of its last six games. Milwaukee lost for just the second time in its last 11 games. The Brewers were shut out for the seventh time this season while going 1-for-9 with runners in scoring position with 10 runners left on base. White Sox 7, Royals 2 Luis Robert Jr. blooped a go-ahead, two-run single in the eighth inning among his two hits and three RBIs and Mike Tauchman homered to lift Chicago to a win against visiting Kansas City. Chicago used a five-run eighth inning to break the game open and pick up its third win in four games, later capitalizing on a wild pitch and two errors. Jordan Leasure (1-4) pitched a scoreless eighth to pick up the win. Losing pitcher Jonathan Bowlan (1-1) allowed five runs (three earned) and two hits and four walks in 1 1/3 innings. Maikel Garcia and Vinnie Pasquantino connected on back-to-back homers to put the visitors ahead 2-1. Cardinals 5, Dodgers 0 Sonny Gray and three relievers combined on a shutout as St. Louis beat Los Angeles. Gray (7-1) worked 6 1/3 innings, allowing eight hits and walking none. JoJo Romero, Phil Maton and Steven Matz took it from there, and Los Angeles finished 1-for-13 with runners in scoring position. Pedro Pages hit a two-run homer and Willson Contreras added a solo shot for the Cardinals. Brendan Donovan hit a two-run single, and Nolan Arenado went 3-for-4 with a run. Mets 4, Rockies 2 Francisco Lindor hit a two-out, two-run double in the ninth inning, Juan Soto had three hits and New York beat Colorado in Denver. Lindor, who wasn't in the starting lineup due to a fractured toe, pinch-hit in the ninth with Soto and Pete Alonso on base. Lindor doubled off Zach Agnos (0-2) to bring home both runners, with Alonso sliding around the tag of catcher Hunter Goodman. Starling Marte had two hits, Ryne Stanek (2-4) picked up the win and Edwin Diaz earned his 14th save. Mickey Moniak homered and finished with two hits and Ryan Ritter tripled in his major league debut for Colorado, which had its three-game winning streak stopped. Angels 5, Mariners 4 Nolan Schanuel's RBI single in the fifth inning gave Los Angeles its first lead, and three scoreless innings by the bullpen finished off a victory over Seattle in Anaheim, Calif. Travis d'Arnaud had two hits, including a two-run homer, and Chris Taylor singled, doubled and drove in a run to lead the Angels' offense, helping give starting pitcher Kyle Hendricks the 100th victory of his career. Hendricks (3-6) yielded four runs on eight hits in six innings. The Angels got one hitless inning apiece from Ryan Zeferjahn, Reid Detmers and Kenley Jansen (13th save). Starter Bryce Miller (2-5) permitted five runs on six hits and a walk in five innings for Seattle, which led 1-0, 3-1 and 4-3 but squandered each lead. --Field Level Media

EXCLUSIVE Donald Trump receives support from huge sporting ally over blistering Elon Musk feud
Donald Trump has received a welcome message of support from one his longstanding friends in the world of sport after his friendship with Elon Musk spectacularly exploded this week. Musk torched his relationship with the president in full view of the world on Thursday afternoon, claiming on X that Trump is named 'in the Epstein files' before saying he should be impeached and that his tariff policy will send the United States into recession.
