Caitlin Clark Recruiting WNBA All-Star To Indiana Fever
Caitlin Clark is already getting started on her recruiting pitch to one of next season's top WNBA free agents.
While she wasn't able to participate in this year's All-Star festivities due to a groin injury, that didn't stop the Indiana Fever star from trying to sell one of her fellow all-league guards on the idea of getting used to the idea of playing at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
Commenting on Sabrina Ionescu's All-Star IG post: "looking real natural in that lockerroom."
Fans were loving the idea of them sharing the same backcourt online.
"Alright I can be delusional for this [expletive]," a user said.
"Cc audibled the blitz true qb1," another commented.
"Hey I'm not mad at Sabrina going to Indiana either," a fan replied.
"SPLASH SISTERS 🤝🏻"
"munching on Cheezits 😭😭" another person pointed out.
"Makings of a Dream Team," another user posted.
"😂😂🤣🤣"
"Teammates. It is inevitable," another fan predicted.
Before Caitlin Clark arrived on the scene it was Ionescu who was taking college basketball and the WNBA by storm — and she hasn't let up.
After feeling her way out in the first couple years, Sabrina has firmly established herself as one of the best guards and shooters in the W on one of the league's best teams.
Having the both of them on the same team would make for one of the most exciting tandems in all of basketball. But we'll just have to wait and see...Caitlin Clark Recruiting WNBA All-Star To Indiana Fever first appeared on The Spun on Jul 21, 2025

Home run leader Cal Raleigh gets day off for Seattle against the Brewers
Associated Press SEATTLE (AP) — Major league home run leader Cal Raleigh was rested for the Seattle Mariners' game against the Milwaukee Brewers on Wednesday. Mitch Garver started at catcher, batting sixth, and Jorge Polanco was Seattle's designated hitter batting fourth. Raleigh hit his 39th home run Tuesday night in the Mariners' 1-0 victory over the Brewers. It was his 132nd home run for Seattle, moving him into a tie with Ken Griffey Jr. for most homers by a player in his first five seasons with the Mariners. Raleigh homered twice on July 11 in Detroit to reach 38, which was the second-most in history before the All-Star break, before going on to win this year's Home Run Derby. ___ AP MLB: recommended Item 1 of 3

Verlander finds bottle of his favorite wine waiting at his locker after elusive 1st win with Giants
Associated Press ATLANTA (AP) — Justin Verlander had good reason to fear the worst when rain began to fall at Truist Park on Wednesday, sending fans scurrying for cover in the fifth inning when he still needed three outs to qualify for his elusive first win in a Giants uniform. San Francisco led 3-0 when the 42-year-old Verlander was forced to consider if bad luck again would extend a winless streak that already ranked as the longest in a season in Giants history. 'I didn't know. I figured something like that would happen,' Verlander said. 'This would be the game that gets rained out or we have a two-hour delay and they don't let me go back out.' Instead, there was no delay. Verlander pitched through the light rain to complete the fifth inning of San Francisco's 9-3 win over the Atlanta Braves. He allowed only one hit and overcame five walks, including three in the first inning, to throw five scoreless innings. Following the game, teammates who had been pulling for the three-time Cy Young Award winner's first win of the season placed a bottle of Verlander's favorite wine at his locker. 'It's awesome,' said Matt Chapman, whose two-run homer in the fifth helped put Verlander in position for the win. 'We've wanted so badly to get him that first win." When asked how he would celebrate it, Verlander said, 'I'll probably have a little bit of that (wine).' The win was more than a personal drought-breaker for Verlander. It gave the Giants the series win after Tuesday night's 9-0 victory ended a six-game losing streak. 'The division is still not out of reach,' Chapman said of the NL West race. The Giants are third in the division and began the day 2 1/2 games out of an NL wild-card spot. Verlander (1-8) was winless in his first 16 starts, the longest stretch by a Giants pitcher in a single season in franchise history. The right-hander finalized a $15 million, one-year deal with San Francisco in January and missed one month with a strained right pectoral muscle early in the season. He took a 4.99 ERA into Wednesday's game but had received only 26 total runs from Giants hitters in his 16 starts. 'It's been a tough stretch for me, physically and on the mound a bit,' Verlander said. The nine-time All-Star was in danger of not surviving the first inning. Thanks to the three walks, Verlander needed 40 pitches to make it through the inning, which ended with a fly ball to the warning track in center field by Michael Harris II. Giants manager Bob Melvin already was considering bringing a reliever into the game. 'To get through the first was huge for us,' Melvin said, adding that Verlander's first win was 'great.' 'We knew it every time he goes out there,' Melvin said. 'Guys try extra hard and for some reason it hadn't worked out.' Chapman was hit by a pitch on his left elbow in the seventh inning. Melvin said X-rays were negative. ___ AP MLB: recommended Item 1 of 3

The Blue Jays may have made history this week, but fans set a record of their own
Toronto Blue Jays fans set a record for most Loonie Dogs consumed at one of the team's games with a staggering 84,731 purchased. An investigation into loss-leader strategies and stadium economics reveals a promotion that's even smarter than it looks. An investigation into loss-leader strategies and stadium economics reveals a promotion that's even smarter than it looks. The record was broken on Tuesday night, which is when the Jays have been running a weekly promotion where attendees can buy a hot dog for a dollar across the ballpark. There were 42,326 people at the game, which averages out to almost exactly two hot dogs per person, a representative from the Rogers Centre told the Star. Attendees also set a record in 2024, with a total of 727,819 Loonie Dogs purchased over the course of the season. Hot dogs aren't the only record set at the Rogers Centre this week. On Monday night, the Jays beat the Yankees, earning their 11th straight home-win and beating out the team's 1985 record for the longest streak in franchise history. The Jays lost to the New York Yankees 5-4 on Tuesday but are still the top team in the American League East.
