Abrams came up with two out in the fifth and hit a solo homer to left center off Kyle Hendricks to tie the score at 1. In the top of the seventh, Washington's Daylen Lile walked with one out off Ryan Zeferjahn (5-1) and stole second. Two pitches later, Adams ripped an RBI single to center to give the Nationals a 2-1 lead. Washington's Michael Soroka allowed one run and two hits over six innings. He struck out five and walked one. Hendricks gave up one run and five hits over five innings for the Angels. He struck out five and walked none. Los Angeles plated a run in the second as Ward walked and Adell singled off Soroka to put runners at the corners. O'Hoppe then grounded into a double play to score Ward. --Field Level Media

Astonishing fight breaks out during car race as rival families brawl on track... before one driver launches flying kick
An astonishing brawl erupted at a stock driving race on Saturday night following a controversial ending at Bowman Gray Stadium. The race involved two sets of families - Zack Staley and his son, Kyler, and Brad Lewis and his daughter Emilee. Things kicked off on the final lap of the race, when Zack deliberately slowed down to try and block Lewis from winning as he was neck-and-neck with Kyler. It initially appeared that Kyler had won the race, though Lewis was subsequently given the checkered flag and tensions boiled over soon after. Kyler got out of his car in anger and angrily approached Lewis' car before the driver wheeled away on a victory route. But Emilee's car was at a standstill, and Zack then raced across the field before delivering a stunning flying kick to her vehicle. Zack was grabbed off of the vehicle by a police officer and event staff before Kyler was pinned on the ground after fighting another man A police officer and multiple track crew jumped on him to pull him off the vehicle as he attempted to rip the metal off of the car. Meanwhile, Zack's son had attacked a non-driver on the track who had been standing alongside Emilee, before Kyler was wrestled and pinned to the ground by several staffers. The announcers of the event were left stunned by the violence. 'We got headlocks, we've got birds, we've got Ric Flair chops,' one said. 'Doesn't matter if it's a female or male, they're at it tooth and nail.' Zack delivered one more parting gift even as he walked away from the scene, as he flashed his middle finger in the air. The broadcast then switched to a shot of the chaos on the track, where a large group of people had congregated due to situation.

Jake Paul versus Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. There has been plenty of trash talk in the build-up to this with Paul stating this one will not go past the fifth round, while Chavez has promised to knockout his opponent. 18 minutes ago By Jack Figg Zurdo wants Opetaia He calls out IBF champ Jai Opetaia for a unification bout. Zurdo says: "That's the fight that I want. I'm the king." 21 minutes ago By Jack Figg Ramirez vs Dorticos The judges score the bout 115-112 (x2) and 117-110... and STILL the unified WBA and WBO cruiserweight champion... Gliberto Ramirez. Laughable scorecards there, even with the point off. Zurdo did come back strong but I feel the challenger has been hard done by there. 23 minutes ago By Jack Figg Ramirez vs Dorticos – Round 12 Massive counter shot bounces off Zurdo's chin - great shot. Dorticos pushes the pace to the final bell and possibly may have done enough to take that. It will be tight on the cards, Dorticos started well, had a point off while Zurdo came back into it but the challenger may have pulled it off in the final two rounds. Let's see if the champ gets the classic favourable decision. 27 minutes ago By Jack Figg Ramirez vs Dorticos – Round 11 Dorticos is warned AGAIN for low-blows. This time gets away with it. It's back and forth action, nip and tuck with one round to go. Dorticos raced to an early lead but Zurdo has fought back and with the point off, it's all to play for. 32 minutes ago By Jack Figg Ramirez vs Dorticos – Round 10 Point deducted from Dorticos for low-blows! Now the fight is up in the air. This changes things. Dorticos ups the work rate towards the end of the round but with two to go his early lead is under threat. 37 minutes ago By Jack Figg Ramirez vs Dorticos – Round 9 Lovely exchanges on the inside with Ramirez getting the better of it. The pair go blow for blow now on the inside, Ramirez starting to land with the left hand. Ramirez slips on the canvas and the crowd get very excited - but nothing to see here. 41 minutes ago By Jack Figg Ramirez vs Dorticos – Round 8 Another left hand snaps Dorticos' head back, Ramirez starting to come on stronger now. Ramirez letting his hands go a little more now, maybe Dorticos is starting to tire. Better rounds for the champion, who maybe has come into the fight just in time. 45 minutes ago By Jack Figg Ramirez vs Dorticos – Round 7 Big left hand from Zurdo lands and the two exchange blows on the inside. Better work from Ramirez but he's been far too economical with his combinations. Good shot at the end likely wins him the round but it's been a rare sight of success. 49 minutes ago By Jack Figg Ramirez vs Dorticos – Round 6 Lovely one-two combination from Dorticos to open the round. Zurdo pushes forward but it's Dorticos who is landing the better shots. He could be on the way to a massive upset here. 52 minutes ago By Jack Figg Ramirez vs Dorticos – Round 5 Zurdo pushing the pace but not landing all that much. Dorticos is controlling the action at range and frustrating the champion. Heading into six rounds and the champion needs to get going. 56 minutes ago By Jack Figg Ramirez vs Dorticos – Round 4 Huge left hand from Zurdo on the inside, more like it from the champion. Better round for Ramirez who started to let his hands go a little. Dorticos needs to get behind that jab again. Today, 03:35 By Tom Sheen Big one up next We've got one more fight until the main event with Gilberto Ramirez defending his WBA and WBO titles against Yuriel Dorticos! This is expected to be a thriller with Zurdo at the top of his game and Cuban Dorticos a KO specialist. We can't wait for this one - and then Jake Paul and Julio Cesar Chavez Jr will be coming to the ring after that. Today, 03:27 By Jack Figg IT'S ALL OVER! Big combination from Curiel with Rodriquez on the ropes and that's all she wrote! Took a while for Curiel to get going but when he did - it was all she wrote. Rodriguez sporting a bruised face, probably the right call from the referee. Today, 03:26 By Jack Figg Curiel vs Rodriguez – Round 4 Lovely combination from Curiel, from head to body but Rodriguez covers up nice. Down goes Rodriguez after a right hook from Curiel - what a shot!
