Angels sink Red Sox in 10 on Christian Moore's 2-run HR

Reuters25-06-2025
June 25 - Christian Moore hit two home runs, including a two-run shot in the bottom of the 10th inning, to lead the Los Angeles Angels to a 3-2 victory over the visiting Boston Red Sox on Tuesday night.
Moore's second home run of the game came against Justin Wilson (2-1) with one out and drove in automatic runner Scott Kingery. It was his third home run of the season. Moore hit a solo homer in the eighth.
Boston's Marcelo Mayer collected three hits. His RBI single in the 10th inning drove in automatic runner Ceddanne Rafaela and gave the Red Sox a 2-1 lead.
Although he gave up two hits in the 10th, including Mayer's RBI hit, Reid Detmers (3-2) was credited with the win.
Boston starter Garrett Crochet pitched seven scoreless innings. He gave up three hits, walked three and struck out 10. He lowered his ERA to 2.06.
It was Boston's fourth consecutive loss.
The Angels trailed 1-0 until Moore homered against reliever Greg Weissert with one out in the eighth.
Boston scored its first run in the third. Mayer led off the inning with a triple and raced home on Nate Eaton's sacrifice fly.
Los Angeles shortstop Zach Neto came out of the game with an apparent injury after he made a fielding error that allowed Romy Gonzalez to reach base in the ninth.
Los Angeles starter Tyler Anderson exited with two outs in the fifth. He gave up a run on two hits, walked two and struck out five.
The Angels received a two-out double from Taylor Ward in the bottom of the fourth, but Ward became the final out of the inning when he was tagged out trying to get back to the base after rounding third on Logan O'Hoppe's single. Ward nearly ran through a stop sign and was tagged out by a diving Eaton.
The Angels are 4-1 against the Red Sox this season.

Joao Pedro says PSG ‘lost their heads' in brawl after Club World Cup final

Chelsea forward Joao Pedro felt Paris Saint-Germain briefly 'lost their heads' as frustration boiled over following the Club World Cup final. The Brazilian ended up on the ground after becoming involved in an incident with PSG coach Luis Enrique after the final whistle blew in Sunday's final in New York. PSG, the Champions League winners and strong favourites, crashed to a shock 3-0 loss at the hands of the Blues at the MetLife Stadium. Tempers frayed in the closing stages and the French side finished with 10 men after Joao Neves was sent off for pulling the hair of Chelsea's Marc Cucurella. Further scuffles then broke out after the game as personnel from both benches entered the field. The incident involving Joao Pedro, one of the Chelsea goalscorers, and Enrique appeared the most serious but neither party shared much detail on what occurred. 'I don't need to talk about them,' said Joao Pedro. 'Everyone wants to win the game and, in the end, I think they lost their heads. 'But this is football. This has happened. Now we need to enjoy it because we won the tournament, that's it. 'I don't want to talk too much about them because you know how it works. Football is this.' For his part, Enrique said he was trying to separate players and prevent a heated situation from becoming worse. Joao Pedro, Gianluigi Donnarumma and Achraf Hakimi were all involved in a confrontation before Enrique interjected. He appeared to raise an arm and Joao Pedro fell down amid the melee. Enrique said: 'I have no problem expressing my feelings at the end of the game in a high level of pressure. It's very stressful for all of us. It is going to be impossible to avoid that. 'Everybody was involved. It was not what was best and the end result of the pressure of the match. 'I have seen (Chelsea manager Enzo) Maresca. I saw he had pushed others and we had to separate all the players and I do not know where that pressure came from. 'But this is a situation we must all avoid, that goes without saying. My intention was to separate the footballers so the situation didn't become worse.'

WNBA first-round pick ruthlessly axed in shock move after loss to Angel Reese... midway through road trip

The WNBA can be ruthless for first-round draft picks who aren't up to snuff - with some being cut before they get much of a chance to establish themselves in the league. That was the case for Minnesota Lynx forward Alissa Pili - who was selected eighth overall in 2024, but is now searching for a new team. Pili has only played 36 games in her WNBA career, averaging just six minutes per contest. But the Lynx were particularly tough when they waived Pili in the middle of a road trip - forcing her to find her own way home. The Lynx play back-to-back road games against the Chicago Sky and have been traveling for over a week. The team went to Phoenix and then Los Angeles before their stop in the Windy City. Pili was waived after their most recent game against Angel Reese and the Sky on Saturday - an 87-81 defeat. Pili did not play in that contest, which came down to a coach's decision. Her last game was against the LA Sparks - where she played just a single minute. The 5-foot-11 forward hasn't been able to translate her game well from when she starred at the University of Utah. An All-American in her final year of college, Pili has only been able to average 2.2 points, 1.2 rebounds, and 0.1 blocks across her WNBA career. Now a free agent, Pili is free to sign with any team who has interest in her.
