For the first time since June 6, the New York Yankees finally beat the Boston Red Sox. The Red Sox were unable to sweep the Yankees in the Bronx this weekend, losing Sunday’s series finale 7-2. The loss snapped Boston’s eight-game winning streak against New York — the franchise’s longest since 2009. While the Red Sox took three of four from the Yankees, they fell short of completing their first four-game sweep at Yankee Stadium since July 1939. New York bounced back after getting blown out 12-1 on Saturday, mashing four home runs (two apiece from Trent Grisham and Jazz…

Keion White wasn’t wearing sunglasses as the Patriots took the field under the lights against the Giants on Thursday night. That’s not to say White’s on the hot seat with New England nearing its roster cutdown, but there’s nevertheless something to the fact the once-expected starter wore his helmet and pads while other veterans didn’t. Playing 30 defensive snaps in the preseason finale served as the latest indication the third-year defensive end has slid down the depth chart. “I don’t think Keion White is in trouble (of making the roster), but I know that he’s been surpassed on the depth…
NEW YORK – Four-game sweeps are hard. Four-game sweeps on the road are near-impossible. At least, that’s the case for the Red Sox, who last swept the Yankees in a series longer than three games 31,458 days ago. July 9, 1939.

You have a great start, you have a crap start. That’s the roller coaster Dustin May has been riding on at the moment, and what an ugly one it was at Yankee Stadium. The Red Sox trade deadline acquisition had a rough go of it on the bump with three dingers given up. Trent Grisham had May’s number all day.This is how the Yankees win, they rely on the long ball to take them to victory. The Red Sox limited them a bunch in the first three games of the series, but couldn’t hang on for the fourth one. The…
TreVeyon Henderson led the Big Ten in yards per carry twice during his four-year career at Ohio State, including during his 2024 senior campaign (7.1 yards per attempt). Henderson finished with 1,248 yards on 183 carries in 2021 as a freshman and 1,016 yards via 144 rushing attempts last season.

The Patriots haven’t had a 1,000-yard rusher since Rhamondre Stevenson racked up…
By EDDIE PELLS It was an exercise in corporate branding that wouldn’t have raised an eyebrow in most pro sports. In college sports, it bordered on revolutionary.

The deal with a machinery company was the centerpiece of a partnership that, Gamecocks athletic director Jeremiah Donati explained, represented the “largest single financial investment into our athletics department…

Robinson, who was selected out of Texas A&M, started 11 games last season, splitting his time between left guard and right guard. He was a favorite of former Patriots head coach Jerod Mayo, who said Robinson had the chance to be a…
