Colts QB Anthony Richardson is day-to-day after injuring finger

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson is considered day-to-day with a dislocated pinkie, a person with knowledge of the injury told the Associated Press on Friday. The person spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity because the team hadn’t yet made an official statement. It’s unclear when Richardson will practice next. Indy did not hold practice Friday and is scheduled to do so Saturday in Westfield, Indiana, a suburb on Indianapolis’ northwest side.

Pirates’ Skenes gives up seven hits for first time

PITTSBURGH (AP) — It took 47 major league games before Pittsburgh Pirates ace Paul Skenes gave up seven hits to an opposing lineup. Skenes’ record streak of allowing six or fewer hits ended at 46 starts Thursday in a 7-0 victory over the Cincinnati Reds. According to OptaStats, the longest such streak to begin a career (excluding openers) previously belonged to Shohei Ohtani, who went 31 starts from 2018-21 for the Los Angeles Angels. Skenes (7-8) yielded seven hits over six innings Thursday night. He struck out eight and lowered his ERA to 1.94, lowest among qualified ...

Patriots unveil statue of ex-QB Tom Brady

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — Tom Brady’s statue weighs six tons and rises 17 feet off the ground, from the bottom of the six-sided base — one for each of the New England Patriots’ Super Bowl victories — to the tip of the bronze fist raised in celebration. For a player who was too slow and immobile coming out of college to merit more than a No. 199 draft pick, that seems just about right. “When I was drafted, I just hoped to make the team. I never dreamed I’ll be standing here two and a half decades later, made of bronze and frozen in time,” Brady said Friday night at a ...

Fleetwood finds his groove at PGA Tour playoffs

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) — Tommy Fleetwood had another big closing stretch Friday with four straight birdies, giving him a 6-under 64 and the 36-hole lead in the FedEx Cup St. Jude Championship with his sights set on an elusive PGA Tour title. So much attention is on the top 50 in the FedEx Cup who advance out of the first postseason event. Fleetwood is already locked in all the way to the finale at the Tour Championship. What he cares about is winning. “It hasn’t happened for me yet out on the PGA Tour, but I would much rather be up there and not quite get it done than not there at ...
