(AP Photo/Godofredo A. Vásquez) NEW YORK (AP) — Already off to a strong start this season, the San Diego Padres are getting healthier, too. Baseball's top bullpen received a boost Wednesday when the Padres (23-12) reinstated Sean Reynolds from the 15-day injured list. Second baseman Jake Cronenworth is expected back Friday — and pitcher Yu Darvish is scheduled to face hitters Thursday for the first time in his recovery from right elbow inflammation. Advertisement 'It's a substantial step," manager Mike Shildt said before the rubber match of a three-game series at Yankee Stadium. The welcome news comes after 22-year-old All-Star center fielder Jackson Merrill returned from the injured list Tuesday night and went 2 for 4 with a double in the cleanup spot against New York. 'Picked up right where he left off,' Shildt said. Darvish threw a bullpen Tuesday at the club's spring training complex in Arizona. The five-time All-Star has been sidelined all season, and it's still too soon to project a timeline for his return. 'Tomorrow's a good indicator,' Shildt said. 'It'll get more crystal from there.' Advertisement Cronenworth, however, played the second of back-to-back rehab games Wednesday for Triple-A El Paso. He went 1 for 2 with a walk and scored twice against Round Rock after going 1 for 2 with a two-run homer and three walks Tuesday night. Following a day off Thursday, the two-time All-Star is likely to come off the 10-day IL in time for Friday night's series opener at Colorado. 'That's where we're trending,' Shildt said. Cronenworth has been out since April 9 with a fractured right rib after getting hit by a pitch. He will probably wear a piece of equipment to protect his ribs when he returns, Shildt said. Advertisement Reynolds was looking to make his 2025 debut after recovering from a stress reaction in his right foot. The rookie right-hander threw 5 1/3 hitless innings in four rehab outings for El Paso. The 6-foot-8 Reynolds reached the majors for the first time last season and was extremely effective in nine appearances, racking up 21 strikeouts and a 0.82 ERA in 11 innings. His four-seam fastball averaged 96.9 mph. 'He's ready to compete for us,' Shildt said. San Diego's bullpen entered Wednesday with the lowest ERA (2.34), WHIP (1.01) and opponents' batting average (.191) in the majors — even after Adrian Morejon and Wandy Peralta were tagged for a combined 10 earned runs and seven hits in the seventh inning of Tuesday night's 12-3 loss to the Yankees. Advertisement To open a roster spot for Reynolds, the Padres optioned right-hander Ryan Bergert to Triple-A, where he will build his pitch count back up to resume his regular role as a starter. The 25-year-old Bergert went 1-0 over four scoreless relief appearances for San Diego in his first taste of the major leagues. 'I thought Bergert was outstanding. It's hard to break into the big leagues,' Shildt said. 'Really pleased for him. Happy about how he's progressed, how he accepted that role.' ___ AP MLB:

(AP Photo/Ashley Landis) HOUSTON (AP) — Golden State's Draymond Green spent the last two days embarrassed after losing his poise early in a Game 6 loss to the Houston Rockets. He told the team in a meeting before Game 7 that he'd set a much better tone on Sunday night. Advertisement He did just that, keeping his cool to help the Warriors advance to the Western Conference semifinals with a 103-89 win. 'He said: 'I've got to be poised and I have to be better and we're gonna come in here tomorrow and get it done,'' coach Steve Kerr said. 'I think his emotional stability tonight, just his poise from the start I thought it set a great tone.' In Game 6, Green picked up an offensive foul at the 8:53 mark of the first quarter for shoving Jalen Green. The play went to review and the foul was determined to be a flagrant-1. The four-time NBA champ believes that play contributed to how things went down in the 115-107 loss Friday night and said that was the reason they got 'bullied.' Advertisement 'I pouted way too much last game,' Green said. 'So, I spent the last two days embarrassed just at what I gave to the game, what I gave to the world.' To make sure he kept his emotions in check this game the notoriously fiery player spent time at the spa, meditated and listened only to slow music in the last two days. Only songs from artists such as Brent Faiyaz, SZA and 90s R&B stars were on his playlist leading up to this game. 'I know I can ratchet my intensity up,' he said. 'I know I'm gonna be... (intense), and I felt like I was going too far.' He said he was dying to get back on the court and show that he could be a much better leader as the Warriors tried to advance to the next round. And Green delivered a strong defensive performance with no emotional lapses that cost the team Sunday night. Advertisement 'I wanted to come out and prove again just who I am with poise but with the same fire and same tenacity,' he said. 'I think I delivered that and gave our guys something to follow.' ___ AP NBA:

(AP Photo/Godofredo A. Vásquez) HOUSTON (AP) — Fred VanVleet combined for 55 points in the last two games to lead the Houston Rockets back from a 3-1 deficit and force a deciding Game 7 against the Golden State Warriors on Sunday night at home in their first-round playoff series. Now the question becomes if Postseason Fred and these scrappy, young Rockets can win a third straight game to finally vanquish longtime playoff nemesis Stephen Curry and Co. and advance to face Minnesota in the Western Conference semifinals. Advertisement After making just 6 of 29 3-pointers in the first three games of the series, VanVleet has gone 18 for 27 in the last three. He's led the Rockets in scoring three times this postseason after doing so just eight times in the entire regular season. The 31-year-old had his best game yet Friday night, scoring 29 points with eight rebounds and eight assists to lead Houston to the 115-107 victory to extend the series once again. VanVleet, who helped the Raptors beat the Warriors for the title in 2019, is ready for the challenge of Game 7. 'It's going to take everybody. It's not really just about me,' he said. 'As a guy that's been there, we have enough to get it done, it's just a matter of can we play at a high enough level all at the same time? We've been able to do that over the last couple games, but we've got to stay focused and do it one more time.' Advertisement For most of the Rockets, who are in the postseason for the first time since 2020, this will be their first Game 7. Things are very different for the Warriors, who have loads of experience in such contests. Seven Warriors have played in a Game 7, led by Curry and Draymond Green, who have been in five apiece. Curry has averaged 32.6 points in those games, highlighted by a 50-point outing to down Sacramento in 2023. Curry said things change when you get into elimination games in the playoffs. 'It's not just the points on the board, it's the feeling, it's the vibe, morale, momentum,' he said. 'You got to dig deep to win these type of games. Thankfully we have another opportunity to go do it. We're very confident that we can go do it.' Advertisement The Warriors are playing their fifth Game 7 since 2015 and have gone 3-1 in the previous four. It's the fifth time they're playing Houston in the postseason and have won each of the first four meetings. One of those series wins came in a Game 7 in Houston when Curry had 27 points, 10 assists and nine rebounds in the 101-92 victory in 2018 that sent Golden State to its fourth straight NBA Finals. Houston missed 27 straight 3-pointers in that game in an epic collapse that still haunts Rockets fans, though no player on the current roster was part of that team. Golden State Warriors at Houston Rockets Advertisement When/Where to Watch: Game 7, Sunday, 6:30 p.m. ET, TNT Series: Tied 3-3 BetMGM Sportsbook: Rockets by 2.5. What to Know: The Rockets have a chance to become the 14th team in NBA history to overcome a 3-1 deficit in a best-of-seven series. Houston has done it twice, most recently in the 2015 conference semifinals against the Clippers. The Warriors were on the wrong end of such a comeback, losing the 2016 NBA Finals to LeBron James and Cleveland after having a 3-1 advantage. … Steven Adams has been a wild card in this series for the Rockets as coach Ime Udoka has employed his double big lineup with Alperen Sengun. Adams, who averaged just 13.7 minutes a game during the regular season, played 31 minutes in Game 6 to help Houston win. He had a season-high 17 points in his most minutes since 2023 as Golden State coach Steve Kerr employed the Hack-a-Shaq tactic of fouling him to slow down the Rockets. Adams, a career 53% free-throw shooter, was 9 of 16 from the line Friday night. He leads the Rockets with 21 offensive rebounds and eight blocks in this series. … Green was miffed that the Rockets seemed to come up with most loose balls in Game 6. He was asked why he thinks that was the case. 'It can be due to whatever,' he said. 'The reality is the person who wants the ball more will get it. Right now, seems like they want it more.' … Kerr is looking for his team to focus on ball security after Golden State has averaged 15 turnovers in its three losses in the series. 'We're in a rush,' he said. 'We got to slow down a little bit.' ___ AP NBA:

(AP Photo/Godofredo A. Vásquez) SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Jordan Beck hit a tying double in the eighth inning and Hunter Goodman singled home the go-ahead run two batters later as the Colorado Rockies rallied past San Francisco 4-3 on Thursday night to deny Justin Verlander his first win with the Giants. Colorado came back against reliever Tyler Rogers (2-1) and snapped a 12-game skid at Oracle Park, where San Francisco had owned the longest active home winning streak against one opponent. Advertisement Angel Chivilli (1-2) got four outs for the win and Zach Agnos worked a perfect ninth for his second save. Verlander struck out four and pitched into the seventh but remains without a win since joining San Francisco. Wilmer Flores and Mike Yastrzemski each hit an RBI double in the sixth to put San Francisco ahead 3-1. The Giants have their first three-game losing streak this year, leaving the Chicago Cubs and New York Mets as the only teams not to drop three straight. The 42-year-old Verlander, who signed a $15 million, one-year contract in January determined to show he can still pitch at an elite level, has made seven starts for the Giants. But the three-time Cy Young Award winner and nine-time All-Star is yet to reach the win column. Advertisement He didn't come through in the home opener April 4 and has struggled to get run support. Heliot Ramos hit his first career leadoff homer against Rockies starter Kyle Freeland, but Colorado tied it on an RBI single by Brenton Doyle in the third. San Francisco placed infielder Tyler Fitzgerald on the 10-day injured list with a fractured left rib and recalled infielder Brett Wisely from Triple-A Sacramento. Key moment Colorado's Ryan McMahon homered in the seventh to make it a one-run game. Camilo Doval relieved Verlander one out later and retired the next two batters. Key stat The Giants have lost five of Verlander's seven starts, scoring 13 total runs in those defeats and only 15 in all his outings combined. Up next RHP Antonio Senzatela (1-4, 5.22 ERA) pitches Friday night for Colorado opposite Giants LHP Robbie Ray (3-0, 3.73). ___ AP MLB:
