White Sox erupt for 6 runs in sixth in win over Pirates
Tauchman and Lenyn Sosa each had three RBIs and Sosa also had three hits to lead the White Sox to their second win in a row following the All-Star break and their third win in the past five games.
The Pirates, who lost their second in a row and have lost 10 of their last 11 games, led 3-0 and rookie starter Mike Burrows took a no-hitter into the fifth inning.
But Chicago scored twice in the top of the fifth, ending Burrows' night after five innings. Burrows gave up two runs on three hits, struck out six and walked two.
Pittsburgh's bullpen then struggled for the second consecutive game as Caleb Ferguson (2-2) gave up four runs on four hits and recorded only one out.
Luis Robert Jr. continued his hot hitting with two hits, including an RBI single that scored Miguel Vargas, who had doubled two batters prior. Kyle Teel and Vargas each had two hits as well.
Austin Slater tied the game at 4 in the sixth with a pinch-hit single that scored Teel.
Isaac Mattson replaced Ferguson but hit Sosa with a pitch to load the bases with one out. After striking out Josh Rojas, Tauchman belted an 0-2 pitch deep to right field to bring home Robert Jr., pinch runner Brooks Baldwin and Sosa and put the White Sox ahead for good.
The comeback bailed out starter Adrian Houser, who gave up four runs (three earned) on 10 hits and one walk while striking out five over 4 1/3 innings.
Chicago relievers Tyler Gilbert (3-1), Steven Wilson, Brandon Eisert, Jordan Leasure and Wikelman Gonzalez held the Pirates scoreless over the final 4 2/3 innings.
Nick Gonzales and Bryan Reynolds led Pittsburgh at the plate with three hits each, while Andrew McCutchen and Isiah Kiner-Falefa each had two hits.
Ke'Bryan Hayes broke a scoreless stalemate in the fourth with a double into the right-center field gap, which allowed Bryan Reynolds and Nick Gonzales to score. Three batters later, Kiner-Falefa singled to drive home Hayes and give Pittsburgh a 3-0 lead.

Deion Sanders gives concerning update on mystery health issue
Even though he has made a return to campus while battling a mysterious health issue, University of Colorado head coach Deion Sanders has not made a full recovery. Sanders' health problem has not been publicly revealed, but it's serious enough that multiple people have shared their worry for the coach. In a recent video posted on his family's YouTube channel, Well Off Media, 'Coach Prime' was seen getting in an outdoor ice bath across from his daughter, Shelomi. Shelomi, a basketball player at Alabama A&M, managed to convince her dad to join her despite his protestations. 'You know I'm still going through something,' the 57-year-old football coach told his daughter. 'I ain't all the way recovered.' 'Coach Prime' managed to stay in the ice bath for only a few minutes before getting out and telling her that the cold temperatures were hurting him. While Deion was seen playing tennis and 'doing the best' he could in a run of over a mile, the admission that he's still recovering from this mystery ailment is still concerning. 'Coach Prime' missed some of the Buffaloes' football camps over the summer after this mysterious illness forced him to stay at home. When asked about what he was going through at Big XII Conference media day earlier in July, Sanders didn't delve into specifics. However, he told fans 'everything is okay'. The Pro Football Hall-of-Famer has dealt with many health issues in the past. Back in 2022 and 2023, Sanders had surgeries on his leg and foot - which included the amputation of two of his toes. Last year, Colorado went 9-4 under 'Coach Prime'. That season also saw wideout/cornerback Travis Hunter win the Heisman Trophy and get drafted second overall by the Jacksonville Jaguars. In addition to Hunter, Colorado players Shedeur Sanders (5th round, Cleveland), LaJohntay Wester (6th round, Baltimore), and Jimmy Horn Jr (6th round, Carolina) were drafted into the NFL.

First-round NFL Draft pick blows off training camp and returns to practice at alma mater
Cincinnati Bengals first-round draft pick Shemar Stewart was back at his alma mater on Monday as he continues to hold out of rookie training camp with the team's remaining roster set to arrive the following day. A 21-year-old defensive end from Texas A&M, Stewart has been holding out over language in his rookie contract and what he has described as 'unfair' treatment. Just last week, Texas A&M coach Mike Elko dismissed speculation Stewart could return to NCAA football amid the dispute, but that didn't stop him from posting a photo on Instagram from Monday's training session in College Station, Texas. Meanwhile, back in Cincinnati, Bengals executive Duke Tobin insisted the team is being fair to Stewart, whom he said is getting bad advice. 'He needs to be here,' Tobin told reporters of Stewart. 'I would encourage him to be here... He's listening to the advice he's paying for [from agents]. I don't understand the advice… We're treating him fairly.' Stewart, the 17th pick, skipped offseason workouts over the contract dispute stemming from various guarantees in the Bengals' offer. He's would get a signing bonus of $10.4 million if and when he does sign. 'In my case, I'm 100-percent right,' Stewart told reporters in June. 'I'm not asking for anything hasn't done before. But in [the team's] case, y'all just want to win an argument instead of winning more games, in my opinion.' Cincinnati did sign defensive tackles McTelvin Agim and Taven Bryan this week, but Stewart's absence coupled with veteran defensive end Trey Hendrickson's bitter contract dispute and the retirement of edge rusher Sam Hubbard leaves the Bengals' front seven a bit thin entering camp. Bengals owner Mike Brown addressed the dispute with Hendrickson and lived up to his reputation for refusing to trade holdouts. 'We are not going to trade Trey,' Brown said. 'We are working on getting it done.' Brown added that Hendrickson 'pushes hard, he gets emotional. 'We never have an easy time of it. And if there's one thing that is consistent, it always gets done. I think this one will too.' Hendrickson, an All-Pro defensive end, has been seeking an extension this offseason in Cincinnati, where receivers Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins recently signed new deals totaling a combined $276million. The 30-year-old signed an extension in 2023 that will keep him in tiger stripes through the 2025 season with a base salary of $15.8m, which counts for $18.6m against Cincinnati's cap number. However, despite being one of the best defensive ends in the league, that figure makes him only the 26th highest-paid player in that position, with the four top earners all raking in over $100m per year. And as Bengals beat writer Kelsey Conway reported in May, Hendrickson had no plans to line up for the team until his contract demands are met. 'Trey Hendrickson just finished talking,' Conway wrote on X. 'Plenty of takeaways but most importantly, Trey Hendrickson said he won't play the upcoming season on his current deal & wouldn't say one or the other if he would sit out games.' The Bengals are also working to replace veteran linebacker Germaine Pratt, who was cut earlier this summer. The 29-year-old Pratt led Cincinnati with 143 total tackles in 2024, including five tackles for a loss to go with a pair of interceptions and fumble recoveries. The inconsistent Bengals missed the playoffs at 9-8 last season while surrendering 348.3 yards per game – more than all but seven NFL teams.

World Athletics monitoring outstanding Grand Slam Track payments to athletes
Sebastian Coe says World Athletics is closely monitoring outstanding athlete payments from Michael Johnson's Grand Slam Track series, admitting: 'There is no point in pretending this is a satisfactory situation.' Johnson unexpectedly cancelled the final Los Angeles leg of his new four-meeting series last month following low spectator numbers at the opening three editions in Kingston, Miami and Philadelphia. The series announced a total prize fund of $12.6m (£9.3m) at its launch earlier this year, but a number of athletes are understood yet to receive payment. It is not unusual for a time lag between competition and remuneration but, given the abrupt end to the aborted first season, runners are increasingly concerned over individual payments that stretch well into six figures. 'It's not good,' said Lord Coe, the global governing body's president. 'The one thing that World Athletics has always stood strongly behind is the athletes. So yeah, this is not a good situation. It's a startup, but the athletes do need paying.' He added: 'For these things to work, they can't be vanity projects. They have to be suffused in practicality and deliverability. I just want the events that are going to add lustre, that we can find space for, and we will encourage them to at least have the courtesy of spending that kind of time and that kind of effort, both intellectual and resource, in making sure they work.' Grand Slam Track champions at each meet receive $100,000 (£74,000) in addition to substantial appearance fees. Britain's 400m Olympic medallist Matthew Hudson-Smith won the short sprint category in Kingston and Philadelphia, with Josh Kerr triumphing in the short distance category in Miami. While Grand Slam Track declined to comment, it is understood agents have been informed that their athletes will receive payment for the Kingston event by the end of this month, with later meet payments following before the end of September. The Guardian understands that some athletes have received appearance money from the opening meet. Asked if World Athletics has the power to intervene on athletes' behalf, Coe replied: 'Well, let's just watch this space.' Johnson's brainchild has been touted as a direct competitor to World Athletics' Diamond League circuit, which had stood unchallenged as the primary season-long athletics competition since it succeeded the Golden League in 2010. Speaking to the Guardian in April, Johnson denied fears that the $30m of investment in Grand Slam Track could run out before he is able to change the sport. 'We're in this for the long haul,' he said. 'Startups aren't profitable in year one. You know, if anybody comes to you with a startup, saying: 'Hey, we're going to be profitable in year one,' run away as fast as you can. But we will continue to grow.' Coe insists he remains fully supportive of privately funded athletics events. 'It was in everybody's interest for something like this to be successful,' he said. 'We're not the 'computer says no' command-and-control federation. Sign up to The Recap The best of our sports journalism from the past seven days and a heads-up on the weekend's action after newsletter promotion 'From the very moment I became president of World Athletics, I talked about the need to be more creative and partner – don't shy away from forming those relationships. So we were very clear that this had to be done properly and executed properly. Hopefully, [create] an additional attraction in the sport.' Meanwhile, Coe confirmed World Athletics remains committed to introducing DNA tests for all elite female athletes ahead of September's world championships. Coe initially announced the policy in March to 'guarantee the integrity of female women's sport'. It will involve a non-invasive one‑time cheek swab or dry blood test. Tests are due to begin in the coming weeks once the World Athletics Council has confirmed procedural regulations.
