Hall of Fame second baseman Ryne Sandberg has died after battling cancer
CHICAGO (AP) — Ryne Sandberg, a Hall of Fame second baseman who became one of baseball's best all-around players while starring for the Chicago Cubs, has died. He was 65. Sandberg was surrounded by his family when he died at his home on Monday, according to the team. Sandberg announced in January 2024 that he had been diagnosed with metastatic prostate cancer. He had chemotherapy and radiation treatments, and then said in August 2024 that he was cancer-free. But he posted on Instagram on Dec. 10 that his cancer had returned and spread to other organs. He announced this month that he was still fighting, while 'looking forward to making the most of every day with my loving family and friends.' ___ AP MLB:

American midfielder Johnny Cardoso uncertain for CONCACAF Gold Cup quarterfinal against Costa Rica
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — American midfielder Johnny Cardoso is uncertain for Sunday's CONCACAF Gold Cup quarterfinal against Costa Rica because of an ankle injury. The 23-year-old started friendlies against Turkey and Switzerland this month, didn't dress for the Americans' tournament opener against Trinidad and Tobago and made late-game substitute appearances in group stage games against Saudi Arabia on June 19 and Haiti last Sunday. 'We need to assess,' coach Mauricio Pochettino said Saturday. 'Today, he didn't participate with the team. He suffered a little issue in his ankle, and we'll see tomorrow if he can be on the bench or not.' The winner of Sunday's game plays Canada or Guatemala on Wednesday in St. Louis. ___ AP MLB:
