There's more home talent baseball action going on today and tomorrow. In fact, right now,

Middleton is playing at Casanovia in home talent action. Coming up on Sunday, Wisconsin

Dells will be at Sock Prairie for a double header, Ashton at Cross Plains, Mesa,

Mainey at Middleton and Readsburg at Wanakee. Also in the Western section,

Dodgel is playing at Blanchardville today. Tomorrow, Bellville is at Sholesburg, Benton,

Muscaday is at Hollandale for a double header. That game originally slated for Muscaday

has been moved and they'll play two seven inning games tomorrow.

Wyoda plays at Verona, Pinebluff Mount Horror, that are Guile and Arena at Ridgeway.

I swear the Brewers are currently trailing the Cubs in the eighth inning with one away. The Cubs

are up five to three. Cubs got off to a quick two-nothing lead on two pitches. They had a two-nothing

lead right away. The Brewers have battled back at times, but Chicago has maintained a lead

currently up in that ballgame again five to three. The Reds defeated the Cardinals,

nine four today in baseball and the White Sox 11-3 over the Rockies.

LeBron James is not opting into what would have been a $51.4 million deal over the coming

season. The person spoke to the Associated Press on the condition of remaining anonymous today

because neither James nor the Lakers revealed the decision publicly.

The move is among those coming just ahead of the NBA's free agency period, which formally opens

at 6 p.m. Eastern time on Sunday, though at least $1.2 billion in contracts have already been

agreed upon because of new rules that allowed teams to speak with their own players earlier than

usual. It is appeared that LeBron James will opt out of the deal to sign another contract with

the Lakers. Bob a Wallace refused to discuss the details of the physical altercation and late

May, the lead to the suspension of Eric Elmore of the Joe Gibbs racing team. Wallace spoke today

after qualifying for Sunday's Cup Series race at the Nashville Super Speedway. He briefly

addressed the altercation that was first reported by the athletic on Thursday.

India pulled off a sensational seven-run win against South Africa in a gripping final of the 2020

World Cup on Saturday, South Africa playing its first ever ICC tournament, needed a run-a-ball

30 to win to the contest. Defending champion Italy has crashed out of the European

Championship with a two-nothing defeat to Switzerland and Berlin. It was a small Texas university

going to court to object to the $2.77 billion settlement proposal that would erase a set of

antitrust claims against the NCAA and the nation's largest conferences and cleared the way for

schools to begin steering millions of dollars directly to athletes as soon as the fall of 2025.

Houston, Christian, filed its motion and federal court in California, arguing the settlement would

divert funds from academics and marginalized and underserved populations as well as putting big

money college sports over the needs of non-athlete students. Also long time ESPN college basketball

analyst Dick Vitale said on social media he has been diagnosed with cancer for a fourth time.

Vitale announced today that a biopsy of a lymph node in his neck showed cancer,

he is scheduled to have surgery on Tuesday. Orlando Sapeta, the slugging first baseman,

nicknamed Baby Bull, who became a hall of femur along the way. Among the early Puerto Ricans

to star in the major leagues has died. He was 86. The Giants and his family announced his death

Friday night and a moment of silence was held on the scoreboard at Oracle Park midway through a

game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. With a look at WRCO sports, I'm Phil Ne.
