Things then look good when Arizona puts seven runs on the scoreboard in the top of the

third to lead eight to nothing yesterday.

The birds were just getting started and they came rolling back to beat the diamond

backs with a 10-9 victory.

Carrad Caining got the win in relief and closer Devon Williams slammed a door for his 13th

save.

Jake Bowers drove in the winning run in the bottom of the eighth, capping a four run rally

for the victory.

There's no game today and a Milwaukee Brewers will open a series at Pittsburgh starting

tomorrow evening.

Packers back up quarterback Malik Willis showed his performance last week was no fluke by

leading his new team to a 30-14 win yesterday against the Titans.

Willis ran for one touchdown and threw for another while starting quarterback Jordan

Love remained on the sidelines.

All pro quarterback, all pro quarterback, Jair Alexander, at the first pick six of his

NFL career as Green Bay built a 17-7 first period lead.

The Packers had eight sacks and Xavier McKinney's interception in the closing meds.

He had the team seven picks in the first three games.

Green Bay stays at home next weekend, welcoming the Minnesota Vikings to Lambo Field.

Intercepting passes isn't the only way the Green Bay Packers defense bothers opposing

quarterbacks.

When the Packers aren't picking off throws, sometimes it's because they're making sure

quarterbacks can't even pass the ball.

Green Bay sacked Willis eight times as it just mentioned in yesterday's victory at Tennessee

that gave the Packers two straight wins without injured quarterback Jordan Love.

Green Bay has shown an impressive ability to produce big plays under new defensive coordinator,

Jeff Hathley.

The Wisconsin volleyball team has buried memories of its own three-start after sweeping

Texas A&M, Saturday, three sets to none.

That six wins in a row for the Badgers, Julia Orzal showed she has recovered from an ankle

injury by contributing a season high 15 kills in the victory.

Sir Franklin had 14.

Wisconsin has defeated three ranked or teams receiving pole votes while finishing on top

in the last half dozen starts.

The Badgers next matches against the border rival Minnesota on Wednesday.

The arrival of NIL money for players and an ever busier transfer portal has made the

off season much busier for the Wisconsin head coach basketball.

I mean, sorry, Wisconsin had basketball coach Greg guard.

Entering his tenth season, guard says it's great to return to the court for practice.

The Badgers are a team in transition, losing six players from last year's roster,

including starters Chucky Hepburn and AJ Store.

Guard says he and his coaches have been impressed by Junior's wing Xavier Amos,

who possesses more skill than anticipated.

Some new players have been battling further roles during practices in Madison.

And going back to baseball, this is the 24th season in a row that there will not be a repeat

World Series champion.

There are any in champions Texas Rangers won't even be in the playoffs.

They will instead finish with a losing record after a year,

winning the franchise's first title.

The New York Yankees were the last team to win consecutive championships,

three in a row from 1998 through 2000.

They even made it back to the fall classic in 2001 when Arizona had a walkoff win in Game 7.

Only five teams have even played in back-to-back World Series since then.

And former Southern California football star Reggie Bush has filed a lawsuit against the NCAA,

the Pac-12 and his school, in a bid to recoup money made on his name, image, and likeness

during his career with the Trojans two decades ago. Bush was one of the most exciting players

in recent college football history during his three years at USC from 2003 through 2005.

While winning two national titles and the Heidspin, he went on to an 11-year NFL career.

Bush is still pursuing the separate defamation lawsuit he filed against the NCAA last year

over the governing body's 2021 characterizations of the circumstances that led to Bush's troubles.
