Giants call up RHP Carson Seymour for major league debut
June 27 - The San Francisco Giants recalled Carson Seymour to the major leagues for the first time on Friday and optioned right-hander Sean Hjelle to Triple-A Sacramento.

Seymour, 26, is a former sixth-round draft pick by the New York Mets in 2021, who was traded to the Giants a year later. He was 3-8 with a 3.89 ERA in 15 starts for Sacramento this season.
Hjelle, 28, is 1-1 with a 6.75 ERA in nine appearances (one start) for the Giants this season. Over four seasons in San Francisco, he is 7-8 with a 4.97 ERA in 90 appearances (one start).

FIFA's Wenger promises better pitch quality at 2026 World Cup
MIAMI, June 28 (Reuters) - FIFA's Global Football Development chief Arsene Wenger acknowledged that the quality of pitches hosting Club World Cup matches in the U.S. was not good enough, but insisted it would be better when the country co-hosts the 2026 World Cup. The pitches, often very dry and sprinkled with water during cooling breaks or at halftime, have been widely criticised, mainly by coaches and players of the European teams taking part. "I've been personally on the pitch at Orlando," former Arsenal manager Wenger said on Saturday. "It's not at the level that the European clubs are used to because it's not perfect, but that will be rectified for the World Cup next year." Paris St Germain coach Luis Enrique raised the issue early in the expanded Club World Cup tournament. "The ball bounces like a rabbit," Luis Enrique said after his team's opening 4-0 win over Atletico Madrid. "Today, for example, the field used to be artificial turf, and now it's natural grass laid over it, which means it has to be watered manually. It's a big problem for the way we play." "FIFA really needs to take this seriously. Not just the stadium fields but also the training pitches. If we're calling this the best club tournament in the world, it should have world‑class facilities. I can't imagine an NBA game played on a court full of holes."

Chelsea vs Benfica live: Latest team news and updates as Club World Cup knockout stages begin
Chelsea and Benfica tussle for a quarter-final place as the Club World Cup knockout stages continue. The expanded tournament has been beset with problem but the relative success of the South American sides has created some intriguing round of 16 encounters. Chelsea might have thought they were destined for a date with Bayern Munich when they suffered defeat to Flamengo but Benfica's success against the Bundesliga winners instead meant they topped their group, setting up this clash in Charlotte. Enzo Maresca would have been encouraged by how his weary squad bounced back from their loss, with Liam Delap on the scoresheet for the first time in a Chelsea shirt against ES Tunis. Benfica have plenty of experience within their ranks, including Angel Di Maria, who will return to boyhood club Rosario Central when the Portuguese side are knocked out of this tournament. Liam Delap scores first Chelsea goal as Blues progress to last 16 Liam Delap scored his first Chelsea goal as the Premier League side reached the last 16 of the Club World Cup with a 3-0 win over Esperance Tunis. The former Ipswich forward struck just moments after defender Tosin Adarabioyo had opened the scoring in first-half stoppage time of their final Group D game in Philadelphia. Tyrique George scored a third in time added on at the end of the game after Chelsea had a penalty awarded for handball overturned by VAR. The result means the Londoners will now face Benfica – surprise winners of Group C ahead of Bayern Munich – in the next round in Charlotte on Saturday.
