Rockies Suffer Major Loss Before Mets Game
Rockies Suffer Major Loss Before Mets Game originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Colorado Rockies are as hot as a 12-50 team could be heading into their bout with the New York Mets on Friday night. They swept the Miami Marlins on the road in their last series after losing their previous seven contests, outscoring them 12-8 over the three games. Advertisement Colorado's offense has been unreliable, as they've scored at least four runs in just five of their last 20 games. Even in their sweep of the Marlins, the Rockies won the latter two contests 3-2 after winning the opener 6-4. The team will now have to play New York without an important bat, via Rockies PR. Colorado Rockies shortstop Ezequiel Tovar (14).Ron Chenoy-Imagn Images Colorado placed shortstop Ezequiel Tovar on the 10-day IL (retroactive to June 3) with a left oblique strain ahead of the game. It also selected the contract of infielder Ryan Ritter from Triple-A Albuquerque, recalled catcher Braxton Fulford from Triple-A, reinstated right-handed pitcher Zach Agnos from the bereavement list, and unconditionally released catcher Jacob Stallings. Tovar is slashing .258/.301/406 with three homers and 10 RBI over 32 games this season. The 23-year-old had a career year in 2024, slashing .269/.295/.469 with 26 homers and 78 RBI over 157 contests. Advertisement Meanwhile, the Mets are coming off a 2-2 series split vs. the Los Angeles Dodgers on the road. They hold a 1.5-game lead over the Philadelphia Phillies for first place in the NL East and are a half-game behind the Chicago Cubs for the NL's top seed. New York will finish its road trip in Colorado before hosting the Washington Nationals.

Shilo Sanders gifts Apple Watches to Colorado football players, establishing culture
Shilo Sanders gifts Apple Watches to Colorado football players, establishing culture Shilo Sanders got the entire Colorado Football Team Apple Watches 🔥 🎥 : @TawfiqThomas — We Coming 🦬 (@SkoBuffsGoBuffs) June 7, 2025 The entire Sanders family is known for their flash and swagger. Deion Sanders leads the charge as Colorado's head coach and the Pro Football Hall of Famer, effectively known as "Prime Time" during his playing days. Shedeur and Shilo Sanders show much of the same swag as their father. Shedeur became known for his signature "watch flex" celebration, which has become popular among other professional athletes. Now, Shilo, who showed his style on the field during his two seasons at Colorado, is giving back to his Buffs' family. In a video posted to Instagram by new Colorado defensive lineman Tawfiq Thomas, he showed off a new Apple Watch, which was gifted to him by Shilo Sanders. Thomas can be heard in the video shouting, "Apple Watch after workout, Yes sir, Shilo! Yes, sir Shilo!" The gesture isn't surprising considering Sanders was the Buffaloes' defensive leader the past two seasons, but the fact that he is gifting the watches to players who weren't even his teammates speaks volumes. Deion Sanders is establishing a culture in Boulder, and his sons are taking that to heart, helping to leave a legacy that will hopefully continue for years to come. Shilo is now in the NFL with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Still, he is showing that he wants Colorado's current roster to feel his support, which can undoubtedly pay huge dividends when trying to keep a roster intact during the ever-evolving college football landscape. Colorado will need a strong locker room this season as they enter 2025 with the Big 12's toughest conference slate and one of the toughest overall schedules in the conference. The Buffaloes will open their season with a Friday night home game against Georgia Tech on Aug. 29. Follow Charlie Strella on X, Threads and Instagram.

College World Series will feature some Pac-12 nostalgia. ‘This is for the West,' UCLA coach says
OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — The ghosts of the old Pac-12 will be lurking at Charles Schwab Field this weekend when the College World Series opens. Oregon State, UCLA and Arizona will be back in Omaha, where they combined for seven of the 24 national baseball championships won by the conference. 'This is for the West,' UCLA coach John Savage said. The Pac-12 went all but dormant last July when 10 of its members dispersed to other conferences. The Pac-12 will ramp up again in July 2026 with holdovers Oregon State and Washington State joined by five members of the Mountain West Conference and one from the West Coast Conference. No. 8 national seed Oregon State (47-14-1) is in the first of two years as a baseball independent and had only 19 regular-season home games because of scheduling challenges. The Beavers played eight more at home in the NCAA Tournament — the maximum possible — after coming out of the loser's bracket to win their regional and beating Florida State in a three-game super regional. UCLA (47-16) was the Big Ten regular-season co-champion, made it to the conference tournament championship game and was 3-0 in its regional before it swept UTSA in its super regional. Arizona (44-19) tied for fourth in the Big 12, won the conference tournament and went 3-0 as the No. 2 regional seed in Eugene, Oregon. The Wildcats had to go to North Carolina for their super regional and lost 18-2 in the opener. They won the next two, beating the Tar Heels 4-3 in the finale after erasing a 3-1 deficit in the eighth inning. Three other former Pac-12 schools — Arizona State, Oregon and Southern California — didn't advance past regionals. Oregon State plays Louisville (40-22) and Arizona meets Coastal Carolina (53-11) on one side of the CWS bracket. UCLA squares off with either Duke (41-20) or Murray State (43-15) and LSU (48-15) takes on Arkansas (48-13), the only remaining SEC teams, on the other side. For LSU coach Jay Johnson, it will be old home week in Omaha. He's a California native who lived his entire life in the West before the Tigers hired him in June 2021. He coached at Nevada and Arizona, leading the Wildcats to the '21 CWS. 'I know the brand of baseball out there, something I'm proud of,' Johnson said. 'It's where I really cut my teeth against some of those great coaches, and it'll be fun to see them out there' in Omaha. Oregon State coach Mitch Canham was the catcher on the Pat Casey-coached teams that won national championships in 2006 and '07 at Rosenblatt Stadium. Casey and the Beavers also won the title at the current CWS stadium in 2018, when Canham was managing in the minor leagues. 'Omaha is in the Beaver blood, man,' Canham said. 'It'll be the first time stepping in that stadium for me and each and every one of these guys, other than Zak Taylor,' referring to his director of baseball development who played on the 2018 team. Canon Reeder, who hit a three-run homer in the Beavers' 14-10 win over Florida State on Sunday, said he and his teammates formed a unique bond through the challenges of a season spent mostly on the road. 'To be in the position where we are, you have to take a step back and appreciate what you've done and where we've come this season,' he said. 'Job's not finished. There's eight teams left and we want to be the last one standing.' Arizona coach Chip Hale, an infielder on the Wildcats' 1986 championship team and in his fourth season as coach, said he's impressed with how his team responded to the ups and downs of the first year in the Big 12. The Wildcats opened 0-3, won 17 of their next 18 and lost five of six late in the season. 'We hit some real roadblocks along the way and it ended up being a blessing to us because we got hot at the right time,' Hale said. The CWS berth is especially meaningful to Mason White, who leads the Wildcats with a .332 batting average, 19 homers and 72 RBIs. He grew up a fan in Tucson, recalling that he watched every game when Arizona won the 2012 title and in 2016 when it lost to Coastal Carolina in the CWS finals. His father, Ben White, played for Arizona from 1993-96 and his grandfather, Tim White, lettered in 1968. 'To be a third-generation guy to go to Omaha, I'm the first one of my dad and grandpa to get to go,' he said. 'It's almost like a dream. I just can't believe it.' ___ AP Sports Writer Brett Martell is Baton Rouge, Louisiana, contributed to this report. ___ AP college sports:
