Schanuel walks with bases loaded in 9th to lift Angels over Rangers 6-5
Travis d'Arnaud hit an early two-run homer off Texas starter Jacob deGrom and finished with three RBIs.
Corey Seager launched a two-run shot off Yusei Kikuchi to put the Rangers ahead 2-0 two batters into the game. Josh Smith had an RBI double for Texas that tied it at 5 in the eighth.
Luis Rengifo doubled off Rangers reliever Chris Martin to open the ninth and went to third on Kevin Newman's one-out single to left field. Zach Neto was intentionally walked to load the bases.
Texas manager Bruce Bochy summoned Milner for a lefty-lefty matchup with Schanuel, who fought back from an 0-2 count before taking a 3-2 changeup below the strike zone for his second career walk-off RBI.
The Angels turned a 4-3 deficit into a 5-4 lead in the sixth when Rengifo singled with two outs, d'Arnaud hit an RBI double and LaMonte Wade Jr. followed with a pinch-hit RBI single.
But the Rangers tied it against reliever Sam Bachman with two outs in the eighth. Jake Burger reached on a wild pitch when strike three in the dirt got past d'Arnaud and then scored from first on Smith's double.
An anticipated pitchers' duel between All-Star starters didn't materialize, as deGrom gave up three runs and five hits in five innings while Kikuchi allowed four runs and six hits in five innings.

Chelsea beats Fluminense to reach final; Joao Pedro scores twice vs. boyhood team
João Pedro scored twice against his boyhood team in his first start for Chelsea, leading the Blues over Fluminense 2-0 Tuesday (July 9, 2025) to assure an all-European Club World Cup final. A 23-year-old who had been at Fluminense from about age 10 until leaving for Watford in 2020, João Pedro scored in the 18th and 56th minutes and refused to celebrate either goal in a sign of respect for his former club. He joined Chelsea from Brighton on July 2. Seeking its second world championship, Chelsea advanced to Sunday's title match against the winner of Wednesday's game between European champion Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid. CHELSEA ARE GOING TO THE FIFA CLUB WORLD CUP FINAL!! 🏆 @FIFACWC@ — DAZN Football (@DAZNFootball) July 8, 2025 European teams will win their 12th straight Club World Cup title and 17th in 18 tries, the lone exception a 2012 victory by Brazil's Corinthians over Chelsea, which won in 2021. Fluminense was initially awarded a first-half penalty kick but it was taken away in a video review. Chelsea's Moisés Caicedo injured his left ankle in second-half stoppage time. Ticket prices slashed A crowd of 70,556 was 10-15% short of capacity at MetLife Stadium, where it was 93 degrees (34 Celsius) at kickoff with humidity that made it feel like 104 (40). FIFA cut ticket prices from $473.90 to $13.40 last week. Chelsea went ahead after German Cano lost the ball to João Pedro, and he poked it to Pedro Neto, who dribbled down a flank and crossed. An attempted clearance went to João Pedro, who curled a 20-yard shot inside the far post. João Pedro took two steps to start to celebrate, then stopped and clasped his hands. Chelsea doubled the lead after Facundo Bernal lost the ball just outside the Blues' penalty area to Pedro Neto, who poked the ball to Cole Palmer. He beat three challenges and dished off to Enzo Fernández, who side-footed a pass to João Pedro. He cut around Ignácio and scored off the underside of the crossbar. Marc Cucurella cleared Hércules' shot off the line in the 27th and French referee François Letexier awarded a penalty kick in the 35th minute when René's free kick struck the left arm of defender Trevoh Chalobah. Letexier reversed his decision in a video review, concluding Chalobah's arm was in a natural position. Letexier reversing his PK decision at the recommendation of Colombian video assistant referee Nicolas Gallo. Chelsea has earned $88,435,000 to $103,815,000 for reaching the final, the amount depending on a participation fee FIFA has not disclosed. 'When I was young, I didn't have nothing, They gave everything to me.' — João Pedro on Fluminense. 'We depart with our heads held high.' — Fluminense coach Renato Gaúcho.

Best defense faces best offense as Lynx visit Mercury
The best defensive team in the league will meet one of the hottest offenses when the Minnesota Lynx visit the Phoenix Mercury on Wednesday. Best defense faces best offense as Lynx visit Mercury The Lynx have held opponents to 40.2 percent shooting from the field and 74.1 points per game, four points less than anyone else in the league. The Mercury scored at least 100 points in three of their last five and enter after highlight-reel games from Sami Whitcomb and Alyssa Thomas in a 102-72 victory over Dallas on Monday. Whitcomb had a career-high 36 points with seven 3-pointers, and Thomas had her 16th career triple-double and first with Phoenix 15 points, 15 assists, 10 rebounds. The Mercury averages 10.5 threes per game, the league high. "Our team is really bought into our spacing," Mercury coach Nate Tibbetts said. "We want to give each other room to be aggressive and play downhill. We want to shoot at the rim, and we want to shoot threes. People run hard because they know 'AT' is going to reward them. She has completely bought into being that playmaker for us." The Lynx have won three in a row, and they beat the Mercury twice in five days early in the season, starting with a 74-71 victory in Phoenix on May 30, when leading scorer Napheesa Collier was out with an injury. The Mercury shot under 40 percent from the field in both. "It is the key ingredient to our success," Lynx coach Cheryl Reeve said after an 80-75 victory over Chicago on Sunday, when the Sky shot 37.2 percent. "We are the best defensive team in the league. Our goal is to have the best combination of offense and defense. That gives you your best chance to compete for a title. In the beginning of the season, defensively we were a little slower starting. And, man, have we gotten to a great place." Lynx guard Courtney Williams, named to her second All-Star team, is averaging 13.5 points and has made 28 3-pointers, a pace that would break her career high of 45.7 percent three-point shooting set in 2023. "It's all about mental toughness," Williams said as the Lynx open a four-game, six-day road trip and will have played six games in 10 days when it concludes July 14. "Your body is going to do what your mind tells you to do. We don't make any excuses." Phoenix formally signed veteran forward DeWanna Bonner on Tuesday. The six- time All-Star began her career with the Mercury in 2009 and played 10 seasons with the club.

Dallas Mavericks' Anthony Davis Undergoes Eye Procedure: What Happened and What's Next?
Anthony Davis (Image via Getty) In a twist that even the most seasoned NBA fans didn't see coming, Dallas Mavericks star Anthony Davis recently underwent a surgical procedure to repair a detached retina—an injury that, if left untreated, can threaten vision and a player's career. The All-Star big man, acquired in a blockbuster trade with the Los Angeles Lakers for Luka Doncic, had already been under the microscope for his durability. Now, with this latest setback, the basketball world is buzzing with questions and concern. How Did Anthony Davis' Injury Happen? Anthony Davis ' eye woes aren't new. Throughout the 2024-25 season, he endured multiple blows to the face, including a memorable incident in November when, as a Laker, he was poked in the left eye by Raptors center Jakob Poeltl. That play forced him out of the game, and he was later diagnosed with a corneal abrasion. Unfortunately, repeated trauma to the same area appears to have culminated in the more serious detached retina that required surgery. What Is a Detached Retina? A detached retina occurs when the thin layer of tissue at the back of the eye pulls away from its normal position. This is a medical emergency, as it can lead to permanent vision loss if not treated promptly. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 20 Pieces of Clothing Older Women should Avoid Learn More Undo Symptoms often include flashes of light, new floaters, or a shadow over part of the visual field. For an athlete like Davis, the risks are even higher, given the physical nature of basketball and the frequency of facial contact. Anthony Davis' Surgery and Recovery Timeline The procedure to repair a detached retina is delicate but well-established. According to reports, Davis' surgery was successful, and he is expected to make a full recovery in time for the Dallas Mavericks ' training camp. While the timeline for his return is optimistic, medical experts note that recovery from such an injury can vary depending on the severity and the individual's healing process. Anthony Davis' Mavericks Debut: A Rocky Start Anthony Davis' arrival in Dallas was highly anticipated, but his debut was marred by injuries. After joining the Mavericks in February, he played just nine regular-season games and two playoff contests, limited by an adductor strain and later a knee issue. Despite these setbacks, Davis made his presence felt, averaging 20 points, 10.1 rebounds, 4.4 assists, and 2.2 blocks per game—a tantalizing preview of what a healthy Davis could bring to Dallas. The Bigger Picture: Davis' Durability and Dallas' Hopes Anthony Davis' injury history is well documented, and his latest eye procedure only adds to the narrative. Yet, Mavericks fans have reason for optimism. With a full offseason to recover and the addition of No. 1 overall pick Cooper Flagg, Dallas is poised for a fresh start. Davis, at 32, is still considered one of the league's elite big men when healthy, and his leadership will be crucial as the Mavericks build around their new core. Entertaining Takes: Social Media Reacts The NBA community, never short on opinions, had plenty to say. Some fans joked about Davis' long list of injuries, calling him 'street clothes Davis,' while others suggested it might finally be time for him to don protective goggles—a look he famously resisted since high school. Amid the banter, there's genuine hope that Davis' latest surgery marks the end of his injury woes and the beginning of a new chapter in Dallas. What's Next for Davis and the Mavericks? - Training Camp Return: Davis is expected to be ready for the start of training camp. - New Teammates: He'll be mentoring Cooper Flagg, the Mavericks' top draft pick. - Championship Aspirations: With Davis healthy, Dallas aims to make a deep playoff run in the 2025–26 season. Anthony Davis' journey has been anything but smooth, but his resilience and talent are undeniable. Mavericks fans—and NBA watchers everywhere—will be keeping a close eye (pun intended) on his comeback. If Davis can stay healthy, the sky's the limit for Dallas' new-look squad.
