LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) — Bellarmine's Chancellor Dugan has retired after winning more than 500 games in 34 seasons as a head coach.
Dugan posted a 509-472 career record at three different schools. She went 159-73 at Southern Indiana from 1991-99, 161-217 at Florida Atlantic from 1999-2012 and 189-182 at Bellarmine from 2012-25.

She capped her college career by leading Bellarmine's transition into Division I. Bellarmine went 18-15 this season and won an Atlantic Sun Conference Tournament game for the first time in program history.
Her Southern Indiana teams reached the NCAA Division II Tournament in 1995, 1997 and 1998. She then headed to the Division I ranks at Florida Atlantic and helped the Owls earn an NCAA Tournament berth in 2006. Bellarmine reached the NCAA Division II Tournament in 2016 and 2017 before starting its transition to Division I.
″Chancellor Dugan is another local coach who wanted to come home and make an impact in the community she grew up in, and she did just that with great energy and passion,' Bellarmine athletic director Scott Wiegandt said in a statement. 'Coach Dugan built a championship-caliber team in a short amount of time and returned it to the national stage in Division II. She was then steadfast in her commitment to seeing the D1 transition through and developing the program in the NCAA's highest level. She unquestionably achieved that goal and is leaving the program on a high note.'

Kyle Teel gets a new shirt as he joins the Chicago White Sox for big league debut
CHICAGO (AP) — Kyle Teel has a new collared shirt and his own big league opportunity. Teel, one of baseball's top prospects, was brought up by the Chicago White Sox on Friday. The 23-year-old catcher singled, walked twice and scored in a 7-2 victory over the Kansas City Royals in his major league debut. Advertisement Teel was acquired in the Garrett Crochet trade with the Boston Red Sox in December. He batted .295 with eight homers and 30 RBIs in 50 games with Triple-A Charlotte. When Chase Meidroth, another prospect who was acquired by the White Sox in the Crochet deal, was brought up in April, Meirdroth told Teel he might need a collared shirt for his major league arrival, and Teel gave the infielder one of his own. So Charlotte manager Sergio Santos returned the favor when he broke the news to Teel that he was going to Chicago, handing over a new shirt. Teel was the No. 14 pick in the 2023 amateur draft out of the University of Virginia. His arrival marks a positive moment for a last-place White Sox team in the middle of a painful rebuilding process. Advertisement Teel walked in his first plate appearance in the second. He was caught stealing home for the final out of the inning. He lined a single into left field in the fourth for his first big league hit. He also walked and scored on a wild pitch in Chicago's five-run eighth inning. The White Sox also optioned catcher Korey Lee to Charlotte before their series opener against the Royals, and right-hander Ryan Cusick was designated for assignment. The 26-year-old Lee was sidelined by a sprained left ankle before he was activated by the White Sox on May 27. He is batting .250 (7 for 28) in 14 games with Chicago this season. ___ AP MLB: The Associated Press

D-backs catcher Gabriel Moreno leaves game in the 6th
CINCINNATI (AP) — Arizona Diamondbacks catcher Gabriel Moreno left Friday night's game against the Cincinnati Reds after being struck on his right hand by a wild pitch from right-handed reliever Cristian Mena. With the Diamondbacks leading 3-2 in the sixth, Mena's pitch bounced in front of home plate and hit Moreno on his throwing hand. After consulting with the training staff, Moreno made a few throws but couldn't continue. Manager Torey Lovullo said X-rays were negative. 'Taking him out of the game was precautionary, the trainer recommended it after watching him throw the ball' Lovullo said. 'There's substantial swelling in that area. We'll see how he wakes up and feels tomorrow.' Jose Herrera replaced Moreno behind the plate. Moreno was 0 for 2 and looking to extend his seven-game hitting streak. He was batting .281 with four homers and 17 RBIs in 49 games.

AJ Singer's 10th-inning single gives Oregon State 5-4 win over FSU after trailing by 3 in the ninth
CORVALLIS, Ore. -- AJ Singer's 10th-inning single lifted Oregon State to a come-from-behind 5-4 victory over Florida State on Friday in the opening game of the Corvallis Super Regional. The Beavers (46-13-1) were down to their last strike in the ninth inning before Jacob Krieg's two-run single tied it up at 4-4, capping a three-run rally. Earlier, Wilson Weber doubled leading off the ninth and later scored on a wild pitch. In the bottom of the 10th, Aiva Arquette led off with a double and took third on a single by Gavin Turley. After an intentional walk loaded the bases, still with nobody out, Arquette was forced out at home by the catcher for the first out. Singer then drove the first pitch into center field and Turley scored the winning run. Myles Bailey's go-ahead solo home run in the sixth cleared the bleachers and left the ballpark, giving the Seminoles a 2-1 lead. Florida State (41-15) added a run on a single by Max Williams in the seventh and another on Brody DeLamielleure's two-out single in the eighth for a 4-1 lead. Oregon State starter Dax Whitney struck out 10 in 4 2/3 innings but left after throwing 97 pitches and allowing one run. He has 22 strikeouts over two NCAA Tournament starts. Kellan Oakes (4-0) pitched the 10th inning and got the win. Starter Joey Volini allowed one run in 7 2/3 innings for Florida State. John Abraham (4-1) took the loss. Both teams had a runner thrown out at the plate in the early innings. In the second inning, Oregon State shortstop Arquette threw out James Hankerson Jr. at the plate on a relay from center fielder Canon Reeder. Hankerson was trying to score from first on a double by Hunter Carns that scored Drew Faurot for the first run of the game. In the third inning, Oregon State's Tyce Peterson was thrown out at home by FSU shortstop Alex Lodise on a relay from left fielder Chase Williams. Peterson was trying to score from first on a double by Krieg.
