Cade Horton tosses 2-hit ball over 5 innings as Cubs beat Orioles 1-0

Associated Press CHICAGO (AP) — Rookie Cade Horton tossed two-hit ball over five innings, and the Chicago Cubs overcame a terrific start by Trevor Rogers to beat the Baltimore Orioles 1-0 on Friday. The Cubs showed a video tribute of Ryne Sandberg and held 23 seconds of silence prior to their first home game since the Hall of Famer died. Former teammates Shawon Dunston, Jody Davis and Rick Sutcliffe then honored their friend by carrying a base onto the field and placing it at second. A few hours earlier, Commissioner Rob Manfred announced the 2027 All-Star Game will be held at Wrigley Field during a news conference at home plate with Chicago Cubs chairman Tom Ricketts, Gov. JB Pritzker and mayor Brandon Johnson. Ian Happ hit a sacrifice fly in the second inning against Rogers, and the Cubs started the weekend series on a winning note after losing two of three at Milwaukee. They began the day trailing the NL Central-leading Brewers by one game. Horton (5-3) delivered his third straight scoreless outing. Caleb Thielbar, newcomer Andrew Kittredge and Brad Keller each worked an inning. Daniel Palencia pitched around a two-out double by Adley Rutschman in the ninth, retiring Tyler O'Neill on a fly to deep left for his 15th save in 16 chances. Rogers (4-2) was a tough-luck loser for Baltimore. The left-hander matched a career high by going eight innings and allowed one run and four hits. He struck out eight and walked none. Key moment Carson Kelly singled leading off the second, took third on Pete Crow-Armstrong's double to deep center and scored on Happ's sacrifice fly. Key stat Horton has gone 17 2/3 innings without allowing a run. Up next The Cubs send All-Star LHP Matthew Boyd (11-4, 2.47 ERA) to the mound, and the Orioles go with RHP Tomoyuki Sugano (8-5, 4.38). ___ AP MLB: recommended Item 1 of 1

Indiana football: What we learned from the first week of fall camp

BLOOMINGTON — Indiana football was back on the practice field this week for the start of fall camp. Veteran linebacker Aiden Fisher told reporters after Thursday's practice that the continuity on IU's coaching staff and experienced roster has made this a 'seamless' offseason for the Hoosiers as they eye a return to the College Football Playoff. 'We are way further ahead than we have been in the past,' Fisher said, after Thursday's practice. Indiana retained all but one assistant coach from last year's staff while bringing back a veteran-laden squad that includes seven players who earned All-Big Ten honors last season. 'I think the staff, we know what to expect from one another,' Indiana coach Curt Cignetti said. 'The experienced guys that we have a long history with, the same. To bring in experienced guys from other programs is good.' Here's what stood out during the first week of camp: More: 5 (plus) Indiana football players with biggest breakout potential in 2025 Indiana offensive linemen Drew Evans and Kahlil Benson were full participants at practice on Wednesday and Thursday. They are looking to make up for lost time having missed spring camp while recovering from injuries. The Hoosiers didn't disclose Benson's injury, but Evans returned to action less than nine months after suffering an achilles injury. 'It is a credit to them and their hard work to get back on the field,' IU center Pat Coogan said, after Thursday's practice. 'During the spring they were there mentally and physically watching everything - obviously they couldn't do much skill wise and football wise.' Coogan, who exited spring as the starting center on the first-team offense, told reporters that he's been working alongside Evans to open fall camp. The former Wisconsin walk-on started nine games for the Hoosiers last season at left guard. 'Super strong guy and he knows his stuff really well,' Coogan said. 'Excited to keep growing that relationship with those interior guys.' More: 'I've watched it countless times': Indiana football not done learning from CFP loss to Notre Dame Baldwin is doing all the right things to earn early playing time. The 6-foot-2, 195-pounder looks the part, but his off the field approach is similar to the one Ponds relied on to win a starting role as a true freshman for Cignetti's staff at JMU in 2023. 'He brings a lot of energy,' Ponds said. 'He's a young guy, he's wanting to learn. He reminds me of myself kind of, he asks questions about everything, and he wants to learn. I see he's got a lot of potential in himself. I definitely see a little bit of myself in him.' He's in the mix at safety where the Hoosiers are trying to build around returning starter Amare Ferrell. Baldwin is looking to jump over some experienced names in the secondary that include Bryson Bonds along with sixth-year transfers Devan Boykin (NC State) and Louis Moore (Ole Miss). Bonds has played in 47 career games, but he's had a more prominent role on special teams than on defense, but Boykin and Moore both have starting experience. More: 'We are really playing for postseason opportunities': Indiana football's recent scheduling moves explained Coogan offered an interesting perspective on what helps Indiana offensive line coach Bob Bostad get the most from his players. The fifth-year senior played for three different offensive line coaches (Jeff Quinn, Harry Hiestand and Joe Rudolph) during his time at Notre Dame. 'He's very intentional with his work,' Coogan said. 'He's very intentional with what he wants to see out of his guys. There's no real gray area. He's detailed, he's very detail-orientated, his meetings are set up that way.' Bostad helped IU's offense make major strides over the past two seasons. The Hoosiers only gave up 21 sacks last year and averaged more than 150 rushing yards per game for the first time since 2018. They lost an expected starter (Nick Kidwell) before the season even started and had to replace Evans just days before facing Michigan. 'He knows how to work guys on the field as well,' Coogan said. 'The drills we do are very purposeful and they translate directly into how the defense is going to play in practice or a game. Everything has a purpose, I think that's why we see success at the line of scrimmage.' Bostad rivals defensive tackles coach Pat Kuntz as the most vocal of IU's assistant coaches at practice. He doesn't hesitate to stop the proceedings if he sees something he doesn't like, and a sternly-worded message is sure to follow. More: Indiana football announces first sell out for 2025 season

Fever vs. Wings prediction: WNBA odds, picks, best bets for Friday

New York Post may be compensated and/or receive an affiliate commission if you click or buy through our links. Featured pricing is subject to change. It looks as though fans will be deprived yet again of seeing Caitlin Clark and Paige Bueckers face each other in the WNBA. Clark is expected to miss her 15th game this season due to injury when the Indiana Fever visit the Dallas Wings on Friday. She also missed the July meeting. Clark and Bueckers last met in the 2024 Final Four with Clark's Iowa Hawkeyes outlasting UConn in a game that came down to the final seconds. WNBA fans are eager to see the first pro chapter of what is expected to be a long-standing rivalry. The All-Star guards have been chosen with the top draft pick in consecutive years. The Fever are three-point road favorites with a total of 169 points. As a handicapper, the key is to analyze the Fever in games that Clark has missed, as only those apply to this matchup. Indy has won three straight games and is 7-7 without its star guard, compared to 8-5 with her. The Fever are a better and more explosive team with Clark. However, they still maintain their high pace with Aari McDonald running the point in Clark's place. For example, they just scored 107 points in their last game. Indiana Fever guard Aari McDonald (2) brings the ball up court against the Chicago Sky during the first half at United Center. Kamil Krzaczynski-Imagn Images Dallas has shown improvement recently, but ultimately, this team is lottery-bound because of its bad defense. The Wings allow 86.4 points per game, which ranks fourth-worst. Injuries have also played a role, but Bueckers and Arike Ogunbowale are now healthy, and Dallas is making some noise. The Wings just beat the reigning champion Liberty by scoring 92 points and lost in the final seconds to the Atlanta Dream. Get the lowdown on the Best USA Sports Betting Sites and Apps I expect another competitive, back-and-forth game. Additionally, I anticipate a high-scoring showdown because both teams identify with their high-octane offense. That is furthered by Dallas recently incorporating a smaller starting lineup with the 6-foot-1 Haley Jones replacing 6-7 Li Yueru. I have a 58-47-1 ATS record in this Post sports section, and my next play is Over 169 points.
