NOTTINGHAM, England (AP) — Another week, another Arsenal collapse.Mikel Arteta has a job on his hands to make sure his team’s title challenge does not go the same way. It was a case of history repeating itself as the Premier League leaders let another two-goal lead slip and dropped valuable points for the second week in a row. A 2-2 draw with West Ham on Sunday followed the same score line against Liverpool seven days earlier. It’s a costly habit to pick up, especially at a time when the wins are rolling in for second-place Manchester City.While it all appears to be so easy for defending champion City, which recorded a 10th straight victory in all competitions by beating Leicester 3-1 on Saturday, Arsenal’s form is wobbling. As if back-to-back draws weren’t bad enough for Arteta, it is the nature of his team’s mini-meltdowns against Liverpool and West Ham that will be of most concern. On both occasions Arsenal was cruising. But at the London Stadium, ju...Reviewed call aids Nats’ rally in 7-6 win over Guardians

WASHINGTON (AP) — Washington tied the game on a reviewed call in the eighth inning, Joey Meneses followed with a go-ahead RBI single two batters later, and the Nationals defeated the Cleveland Guardians 7-6 on Sunday to avert a three-game sweep.Jeimer Candelario and Luis García homered for Washington, which snapped a four-game skid and won at home for only the second time in nine tries this season.Steven Kwan drove in two runs for the Guardians, who fell to 7-3 on the road.In the eighth, plate umpire Ryan Blakney initially ruled Stone Garrett was thrown out at home while tagging on Lane Thomas’ one-out fly to center, but replay officials ruled catcher Mike Zunino was blocking the plate and allowed the run to count and tie it at 6.Trevor Stephan relieved Nick Sandlin (1-1) after the replay ruling and walked Dominic Smith. Meneses then poked a single to right to drive in CJ Abrams.Mason Thompson (1-1) pitched a scoreless eighth, and Kyle Finnegan handled the ninth for his third ...Stars-Wild in NHL playoffs with top rookies from 2 years ago

DALLAS (AP) — Dallas Stars forward Jason Robertson is quick to point out that while he finished second behind Minnesota’s Kirill Kaprizov for the Calder Trophy, it wasn’t even a close vote to determine the NHL’s top rookie two years ago.Kaprizov, who got 99 of the 100 first-place votes back then, and Robertson are now the leading scorers on their respective teams. They face each other in the first round of the NHL playoffs, with the Central Division rival Stars and Wild opening their best-of-7 series Monday night.“He’s an amazing player,” Kaprizov said of Robertson, the 23-year-old who this season became Dallas’ first 100-point scorer (46 goals, 63 assists). “He gets opportunities from nothing.”Robertson said much the same about Kaprizov, whose 40 goals and 35 assists came in 67 games. He was back for Minnesota’s final two regular-season games after missing a month with a lower-body injury, and said he was starting to feel like himself again after that and a couple...Hospitalizan al presidente de Ecuador, Guillermo Lasso, por una infección en las vías urinarias, informa la Presidencia

SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — The Sacramento Kings are investigating allegations from a Bay Area hip-hop star that “racial bias” led to him being kicked out of his seat during a playoff game against the Golden State Warriors.The rapper E-40 said in a statement that he was heckled throughout the game Saturday night and addressed one heckler “in an assertive but polite manner” before security guards came and ordered him to leave the arena.“Unfortunately, it was yet another reminder that — despite my success and accolades as a musician and entrepreneur — racial bias remains prevalent,” he said in a statement. “Security saw a disagreement between a Black man and a white woman and immediately assumed that I was at fault.”The Kings said they are investigating the circumstances behind the ejection.“The Sacramento Kings take these claims seriously and are investigating the facts and circumstances regarding the situation, as we do anytime an accusation like this is ...Whitlock, Turner help Red Sox make short work of Angels, 2-1

BOSTON (AP) — Garrett Whitlock threw seven innings of one-run ball, Justin Turner hit a two-run homer and the Boston Red Sox beat the Los Angeles Angels 2-1 on Sunday in a game that lasted just under two hours. Boston honored their 2013 World Series championship team before the game, including new Hall of Famer David Ortiz, the 2013 World Series MVP. Los Angeles star Shohei Ohtani had his 36-game on-base streak halted; it had been the longest in MLB. Making just his second start after starting the season on the injured list while recovering from offseason hip surgery Whitlock (1-1) allowed three hits with five strikeouts and two walks. He’s the first starter of the season to go more than six innings.With regular closer Kenley Jansen unavailable after working the previous two games, Ryan Brasier got the final three outs for his first save. He struck out Mike Trout and got Ohtani to fly out to close the 1-hour, 57-minute game. Reid Detmers (0-1) was given the loss in an outing w...Rodríguez, Suárez spark Mariners to win over Rockies

SEATTLE (AP) — Julio Rodríguez isn't getting many hittable pitches in the early stages of his second season, meaning the ones that are left over the plate can't be missed.Especially when its a mistake with two strikes.Eugenio Suárez started Seattle’s big fourth inning with a solo home run, Rodríguez capped it with a three-run triple, and the Mariners rolled to a 9-2 win over the Colorado Rockies on Saturday night.“Every time they make a mistake, we've got to make them pay. I feel like that's where you've got to make your money,” Rodríguez said. “There's a lot of good guys out there and they have a lot of good control but they're human just like we are. Being ready for those mistakes is going to lead you to better results.” Nuggets finally at full strength as they open NBA playoffs Seattle won its third straight on the strength of one big offensive outburst against Colorado starter Ryan Feltner and a stellar outing on the mound from George Kirby.Suárez went opposite field with ...Beloved athlete among 4 people killed, over 15 teens shot at Sweet 16 birthday party in Alabama

(CNN) — A Sweet 16 party turned into a scene of carnage when four people were killed and at least 15 teenagers were shot and wounded, officials said.The deadly rampage happened in downtown Dadeville around 10:34 p.m. Saturday, the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency said Sunday.“There were four lives tragically lost in this incident, and there’s been a multitude of injuries,” Sgt.

(CNN) — Democratic Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand of New York on Sunday defended Dianne Feinstein and her ability to serve in the Senate amid calls from some Democrats for the longest-serving female US senator in history to step down.Gillibrand, who serves with Feinstein on the Senate Intelligence Committee, told CNN’s Jake Tapper on “State of the Union” that her colleague from California still asks “some of the most searing, pointed questions of anyone on that committee” and she considers her a “role model and a mentor.”Feinstein was hospitalized in March for shingles and has yet to return to the Senate. She said last week that she had asked to be “temporarily” replaced on the Senate Judiciary Committee while she is recovering but remains committed to returning to the chamber.“We have had so many senators who have had illnesses, whether it’s Mitch McConnell’s illnesses or senators who have had strokes,” Gi...Latest news
