(AP Photo/Pamela Smith) NEW YORK (AP) — Zach Pop signed a one-year contract with the New York Mets and joined their bullpen Saturday before a Subway Series game against the Yankees. The right-hander made four relief appearances for the Seattle Mariners in June before getting designated for assignment last weekend. Rather than accept an outright assignment to the minors, he elected free agency on Wednesday. Advertisement Right-hander Austin Warren was optioned to Triple-A Syracuse after throwing 34 pitches over 1 2/3 innings in relief Friday for the Mets during their 6-5 victory over the crosstown-rival Yankees. Right-hander Tyler Zuber was designated for assignment to clear a spot for Pop on the 40-man roster. Pop permitted one run over 4 1/3 innings in his first three outings with the Mariners but then was tagged for eight runs — seven earned — in one inning June 26 at Minnesota. He gave up six hits, two walks and two homers in that game. The 28-year-old Pop grew up in Canada before going to college at Kentucky. He is 8-5 with a 4.75 ERA and one save in 162 major league games over five seasons with Miami, Toronto and Seattle. Advertisement In other news, Mets ace Kodai Senga was set to make a rehab start Saturday night for Double-A Binghamton against Hartford. Senga, one of 13 Mets pitchers on the injured list, was expected to throw 60-65 pitches and could return to New York's injury-ravaged rotation next weekend in Kansas City just before the All-Star break. Senga strained his right hamstring covering first base on June 12 and the Mets went into a 3-14 tailspin afterward. The right-hander is 7-3 with a 1.47 ERA in 13 starts this season. Right-handed starter Tylor Megill (elbow sprain) is beginning to play catch. Lefty reliever Brooks Raley (Tommy John surgery) has been pitching well during his minor league rehab assignment but isn't expected back until after the All-Star break, manager Carlos Mendoza said. ___ AP MLB:

Alvin Kamara's first pitch was so bad the Cubs gave him a re-do
New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara got the rare second chance on his whiffed first pitch at Saturday's Chicago Cubs game. Kamara's first attempt on the mound took a skip in the wrong direction and went away from the plate. The Cubs mascot had a hard time catching the ball on the other side. Advertisement However, Kamara was determined to get it right and delivered a much better pitch down the middle to cheers from the Wrigley Field crowd. It's not often that somebody gets another opportunity for a first pitch, but Kamara made sure that his second attempt counted. You have to appreciate the commitment! We're sure Kamara will knock it out of the park on his next first pitch. These are harder than they look!

Tearful champion Krejcikova knocked out of Wimbledon
Barbora Krejcikova had to compose herself several times in the third set [Getty Images] Barbora Krejcikova's Wimbledon title defence came to a tearful end as physical struggles hampered her in a three-set defeat by American 10th seed Emma Navarro in the third round. The 29-year-old Czech, who had come into the tournament after an injury scare, had seemed to be in control of the match but became increasingly distressed after being taken to a third set in a 2-6 6-3 6-4 defeat. Advertisement She bent over several times behind the baseline at the end of points and had the trainer on midway through the third set to have her blood pressure taken. When she was one game from defeat, she leaned against the back of the court and cried. Wiping away tears as she held serve to stay in the match, the end came in the following game when she netted as the American, 24, booked a fourth-round meeting with 18-year-old Russian Mirra Andreeva, who is the seventh seed.
