Brewers 5, Tigers 0 – Priester and Hoskins help Brewers end 3-game skid with 5-0 victory over Tigers
Quinn Priester and four relievers combined on a one-hitter and Rhys Hoskins broke out of his early-season slump to help the Milwaukee Brewers snap a three-game skid by beating the Detroit Tigers 5-0 on Tuesday. Priester held the Tigers hitless until he allowed a leadoff double to Gleyber Torres in the sixth. Hoskins had been 8 for 44 with just one extra-base hit in his first 15 games of the season before going 3 of 4 with a homer on Tuesday. Jared Koenig, Abner Uribe, Nick Mears and Grant Anderson didn’t allow Detroit any baserunners the rest of the way.

Athletics 12, White Sox 3 – Tyler Soderstrom hits a pair of 3-run home runs and the A’s beat the White Sox 12-3
Tyler Soderstrom hit a pair of three-run home runs, his major league-leading seventh and eighth homers of the season, and the Athletics beat the Chicago White Sox 12-3. Soderstrom went deep with nobody out in the first off White Sox starter Sean Burke (1-3) for a 3-0 lead. Andrew Vaughn, just 6 for 53 to begin the season, answered with a three-run shot off Jeffrey Springs (3-1) in the bottom half to tie it. The Athletics took the lead for good in the second on an RBI double by Gio Urshela. Shea Langeliers, who had three hits, added a solo homer in the third for a 5-3 lead.

Cubs 2, Padres 1 – F/10 – Cubs hand Padres 1st loss in 12 home games, 2-1 on Hoerner’s triple in the 10th
Nico Hoerner’s triple leading off the 10th inning drove in automatic runner Dansby Swanson, and the Chicago Cubs beat San Diego 2-1. It was the Padres’ first loss in 12 home games. Hoerner’s opposite-field liner to right-center off Yuki Matsui rolled to the wall. The Padres had runners on first and third with two outs in the bottom of the inning before Caleb Thielbar got three-time batting champion Luis Arraez to fly out to left to get his first save. Ryan Pressley earned the win in the matchup of NL division leaders. San Diego slugger Manny Machado homered after two Cubs players dropped pop fouls during a nine-pitch at-bat against Shota Imanaga in the fifth.

Hockey – Judge rejects defense that Gaudreau brothers contributed to their deaths
A judge has upheld all charges against the driver charged with killing hockey players Johnny and Matthew Gaudreau while they bicycled in New Jersey. The ruling comes after defense lawyers Tuesday argued that the brothers may have contributed to their deaths by cycling while intoxicated. Judge Michael Silvanio says that’s not relevant under New Jersey criminal law. And witnesses tell police they were riding single-file on the edge of the road when driver Sean Higgins swerved around another vehicle and hit them last August. Prosecutors say Higgins was impaired by alcohol and fueled by road rage.

NFL – Kyler Gordon says Bears "showed how much" they valued him in $40M extension
Cornerback Kyler Gordon says the Chicago Bears “showed how much” how much they valued him in negotiating a three-year, $40 million contract extension. The deal was finalized on Tuesday. Gordon is guaranteed $31.25 million under the extension. He was the first player drafted by general manager Ryan Poles when he was taken in the second round in 2022. Gordon has five interceptions and 17 passes defended in three seasons. He had three interceptions as a rookie and two more in 2023. Gordon played in a career-high 15 games last year and broke up five passes. Gordon is part of a secondary that includes cornerbacks Jaylon Johnson and Tyrique Stevenson, along with safeties Kevin Byard and Jaquan Brisker. Johnson agreed to a four-year, $76 million contract extension in March 2024.

NFL – Dolphins pursuing trade options for All-Pro cornerback Jalen Ramsey
The Miami Dolphins are pursuing trade options for All-Pro cornerback Jalen Ramsey, general manager Chris Grier confirmed on Tuesday. Ramsey did not ask for a trade, and he didn’t ask for more money, Grier clarified, but after weeks of conversations with Ramsey’s representation, both sides agreed it would be best to potentially move on. Grier declined to go into detail about the contents of those discussions and did not give a clear reason for potentially parting ways with Ramsey, who was acquired from the Los Angeles Rams in 2023 and given a three-year, $72.3 million contract extension ahead of the 2024 season.

NCAA – Objectors have final say and $2.8 billion NCAA lawsuit settlement goes to judg

Attorneys and objectors to the so-called House settlement involving the NCAA and the nation’s five largest athletic conferences have filed the final briefs sought by U.S. District Court Judge Claudia Wilken.
