Inter Miami acquire M Rodrigo De Paul from Atletico
July 26 - Inter Miami acquired Argentine midfielder Rodrigo De Paul from LaLiga powerhouse Atletico Madrid. The MLS club announced the move late Friday, with De Paul arriving on loan through 2025 with a purchase option that could make the deal permanent through 2029. De Paul, 31, will not occupy a designated player spot on the roster as he reunites with fellow 2022 FIFA World Cup champion Lionel Messi. "Assembling a team that inspires our fans to dream continues to be one of our primary aspirations, so we're thrilled to sign a player of Rodrigo's caliber. He is a winner who has conquered the world stage; his ambitions match ours at Inter Miami, and we are hungry to achieve these goals together," Inter Miami CF managing owner Jorge Mas said. "Several of the best players in global futbol have already chosen Inter Miami as their home, and Rodrigo joining our roster is another landmark as we continue on this journey to change the trajectory of the sport in this country and make our fans proud." De Paul has accumulated 57 goals and 74 assists in nearly 500 professional matches with Argentina's Racing Club (2012-14), Italy's Udinese (2016-21) and Spain's Valencia (2014-16) and Atletico (2021-25). "Rodrigo is a player I've admired for many years. As a leader he has brought so much to the teams he has played for -- especially with his national team Argentina," Inter Miami co-owner David Beckham said. "He brings experience, passion and quality to our team and to our city. I'm excited to welcome another World Cup-winning player not just to Inter Miami, but also to MLS." Internationally, he has been capped 78 times by Argentina. In addition to the World Cup, he helped the team win Copa America championships in 2021 and 2024. De Paul became known for his role as an enforcer for Messi. "What brings me to Inter Miami is the desire to compete, win titles, to write the pages in the club's history," De Paul said. "It's a club that is shaping up to be great, to have a long history, so that many people follow this incredible team." --Field Level Media

Phillies offense continues to roll in win over Yankees
July 26 - Bryce Harper homered in the third inning and Kyle Schwarber hit a two-run double one pitch after an error by second baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. in the seventh as the visiting Philadelphia Phillies rolled to a 9-4 victory over the struggling New York Yankees on Saturday afternoon. The Phillies sent the Yankees to their seventh loss in 10 games following a five-game winning streak July 6-11. Philadelphia also earned the win after the Yankees held Aaron Judge out of the lineup because of a right elbow injury. Harper tagged New York's Marcus Stroman (2-2) for a 425-foot drive into the right-center field seats with two outs after the right-hander struck out Trea Turner and Schwarber. Schwarber followed up his second two-homer game this season with a double during a four-run seventh off Allan Winans. Schwarber's hit gave the Phillies a 9-1 lead and occurred after Chisholm booted a grounder by Turner for New York's 10th error in its past five games. Turner opened the game with a ground rule double and scored three batters later on an RBI single by J.T. Realmuto, who hit the tiebreaking three-run homer in the seventh off Luke Weaver Friday. Turner drove in a run with a ground ball to shortstop in the fourth when the Phillies drew four walks. The shortstop added an RBI double in the sixth off Yerry de Los Santos for a 5-1 lead before reaching on Chisholm's misplay. Edmundo Sosa blasted a two-run homer in the seventh off as the Phillies totaled 13 hits, giving them 27 in the series. Sosa exited with a back contusion after the seventh following a collision with left fielder Brandon Marsh while fielding a pop up by Chisholm. Philadelphia's Ranger Suarez bounced back from Sunday's rough outing against the Los Angeles Angels and held the Yankees to one run on seven hits in 5 2/3 innings. The left-hander tied a season-high with eight strikeouts, walked one and threw 108 pitches. Jasson Dominguez had an RBI single in the fourth off Suarez, who held Paul Goldschmidt, Cody Bellinger and Giancarlo Stanton hitless in eight at-bats. Ben Rice scored on a balk in the eighth before Alan Rangel struck out Goldschmidt. Stanton hit a two-run homer in the seventh for the Yankees, who are getting outscored 55-38 since the All-Star break. Stroman endured the worst of his five starts since returning from a left knee injury. The right-hander allowed four runs on five hits in 3 2/3 innings. --Field Level Media
