Bo Naylor helps Guardians slip past Astros 4-2
June 8 - Bo Naylor hit a home run among his three hits as the Cleveland Guardians snapped a three-game losing streak with a 4-2 victory over the visiting Houston Astros on Sunday afternoon. It was the second three-hit game of the season for Naylor and seventh of his career. Gabriel Arias doubled twice and scored a run for Cleveland. Cade Smith (2-2) struck out three during 1 2/3 scoreless innings of relief to pick up the win. Emmanuel Clase pitched around two singles in the ninth to pick up his 14th save. Jake Meyers went 4-for-4 with a stolen base and Cam Smith had a two-run double for Houston, which had a three-game winning streak snapped. Steven Okert (1-2) allowed two runs (one earned) on two hits and a walk over one inning while striking out two. Cleveland took a 2-0 lead in the second inning on Naylor's eighth home run of the season, a 429-foot drive to right, two batters after Arias doubled. It was Naylor's first extra-base hit against a left-handed pitcher this season. Houston tied it 2-2 in the seventh on a two-run double into the gap in left-center by Smith, driving in Yainer Diaz and Meyers, who singled. The Guardians went back in front 4-2 in the bottom of the seventh, taking advantage of a throwing error by Okert in the process. Johnathan Rodriguez led off with a single and was replaced by pinch-runner Nolan Jones. Naylor followed with a bloop single to left to put runners at first and second. Will Wilson then laid down a sacrifice bunt but Okert threw wildly to first allowing Jones to score what would prove to be the winning run and Naylor to advance to third. Steven Kwan followed with a sacrifice fly to center to drive in Naylor. Houston got the tying runs on base in the ninth against Clase with back-to-back one-out singles from Diaz and Meyers. But Clase bounced back to get Smith on a fly out and Jacob Melton in a ground to first to earn the save. --Field Level Media

UA System Board of Trustees votes to move forward with 3 ‘major' UAH facilities projects
HUNTSVILLE, Ala. (WHNT) — The University of Alabama in Huntsville hopes to grow in leaps, bounds and even jumps with a new three-part facilities project recently approved by the UA System Board of Trustees. On Thursday, UAH announced that the UA System Board of Trustees approved plans for three 'major facilities projects' in the April 4 board meeting.

The Board additionally advanced one project— the new UAH Track and Field Complex— and approved initial plans for the reconfiguration of the University Fitness Center. For the Track and Field Complex, the Board granted Stage III approval, in which the architectural designs were approved. For this complex, Chapman Sisson Architects' designs were approved. Former Deshler hoops star transferring from UNA to UAH In Stage III approval, UAH can now go forward with advertising and bidding the project and plans to seek Board approval of the construction contract at a Board meeting in the future. Stages I and II were approved by the Board in September 2023, with Stage II being revised and approved in November 2024. The Track and Field Complex will transform a field and parking lot on the west side of John Wright Drive, across from Charger Park, into UAH's first on-campus track. UAH Director of Athletics Dr. Cade Smith expects the complex to strengthen an already outstanding program. 'Our track and field program has had a great deal of success under Coach David Cain's leadership… including the recent Gulf South Conference Indoor Championship for our men and strong national finishes and multiple All-Americans at the NCAA Championships. All of this has been accomplished without an on-campus track and field facility,' Smith said.

Along with an NCAA-compliant, 400-meter, 8-lane running track with a high-performance surface designed for shock absorption, the project will include jumping, vaulting and throwing event venues. The complex will also feature the following amenities: Entry plaza Parking area for visiting teams and officials Press box with a 500-seat main section of bleachers Home and visiting team locker rooms Concessions Field house with equipment storage The project will be delivered in packages to provide flexibility in scheduling as funding becomes available. The budget for the project is $14,210,602. Onto the University Fitness Center, the Board approved Stages I and II at the April 4 meeting. They approved the preliminary project scope and budget and enabling UAH to contract with Chapman Sisson Architects to design and administer the project. The project has a budget of $1.2 million. The UFC, located at 500 John Wright Drive, was listed as a top priority for improvement in the FY2025 UAH Annual Consolidated Capital Projects and Facilities Report. The 2024 UAH Campus Master Plan had already identified the need to update aging facilities and infrastructure to current campus standards.
