Alonso (hand) comes off bench for Mets to extend team-record consecutive games streak

Toronto Star4 days ago
NEW YORK (AP) — Pete Alonso didn't start Sunday for the first time in more than a year because of a bruised right hand, but the New York Mets' All-Star first baseman extended his team-record streak for consecutive games played by entering as a defensive replacement in the seventh inning of a 3-2 win over the Cincinnati Reds.
Alonso, whose 354 consecutive games played are the second-most in the majors behind Atlanta first baseman Matt Olson (718 games), replaced Mark Vientos and was serenaded with the Citi Field sellout crowd of 42,981 chanting his name. He struck out in his only at-bat in the eighth.

Caitlin Clark still has no timetable for return following further medical evaluation this week

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark still has no time table to return, the team said Thursday following further medical tests this week. No further injuries were discovered during this week's evaluations. Clark has missed three games — including last weekend's WNBA All-Star Game in Indianapolis — since injuring her right groin July 15 against the Connecticut Sun. She traveled with her team to New York for their loss to the Liberty on Tuesday night. The Fever said Clark is continuing to work with team medical staff on her recovery and rehabilitation. Clark's current injury is the latest in a string of difficulties for the Fever star, which has included a left groin injury and a left quad strain earlier in the season. ___ AP WNBA:

Ineos-Grenadiers staff member David Rozman leaves Tour de France over doping allegation links

COURCHEVEL, France (AP) — Ineos-Grenadiers soigneur David Rozman has left the Tour de France in the wake of media reports linking him to disgraced German doctor Mark Schmidt, the convicted head of an international blood doping ring. Rozman 'has stepped back from race duties and has left the Tour,' Ineos-Grenadiers said in a statement provided to The Associated Press on Thursday, noting that Rozman had received a request from the International Testing Agency (ITA) to attend an interview. It comes following reports alleging Rozman exchanged incriminating text messages with Schmidt back in June 2012.

SPA-FRANCORCHAMPS, Belgium (AP) — Max Verstappen doesn't think Christian Horner's firing at Red Bull 'will matter at all' amid speculation that he could leave the team after this season. 'Life is unpredictable, but in general I'm very happy where I'm at and I hope — and it was still the target that we set out when we signed the new deal — that I would drive here until the end of my career,' Verstappen said Thursday at the Belgian Grand Prix.
