GENEVA (AP) — European nations agreed Thursday to boycott the World Cup and all other FIFA competitions to protest Gianni Infantino’s plan to sell stakes in soccer’s biggest tournament to private equity investors. The North American soccer body rejected his plan later the same day.“UEFA and its national associations will not participate in FIFA competitions,” the European soccer body said after an urgent online meeting of its 55 member nations.The next scheduled FIFA tournament is within weeks in Europe — the Women’s Under-20 World Cup hosted by Poland from Sept. 5 — and the four British federations comprise FIFA’s only bidder to…

After dropping game one in Norfolk (Orioles AAA) following a six-game win-streak, the WooSox are back on top on Wednesday. They enjoyed not only another solid five-inning start from Blake Wehunt, who is impressing with a small sample size in Triple-A thus far, but also twin sixth inning home runs from their infielders, Bret Harris and Vinny Capra (the latter was the DH last night.) Those two long balls broke a 2-2 tie and put Worcester up for good, as the bullpen perfectly navigated the waters following Wehunt’s exit. Braiden Ward also was notably a speed demon on the basepaths,…

It’s been a rough couple of months to be a Celtics fan. Boston fumbled away a 3-1 lead in Round 1 against Philadelphia, spoiling what had otherwise been a highly enjoyable 2025-26 season. The Knicks won a championship and haven’t stopped parading around in the aftermath. The Celtics traded former Finals MVP Jaylen Brown to a division rival, and those Sixers signed LeBron James in the aftermath to create a potential super team. The East as a whole looks as good on paper as it has in decades. The duck boats that flowed through downtown Boston just two years ago…
The Red Sox found themselves in another gritty, low-scoring clash with the Athletics in a post-midnight win (East Coast time) Wednesday night. While Boston left 13 men on base, they did enough with a big swing in extra innings to preserve a 4-2 victory.Here’s three takeaways from Wednesday night’s win.Boston’s left-hander continued to creep further into game action and gave the Red Sox over 90 pitches and finished five innings, capping the night in style with an ABS-assisted strikeout to strand two runners.Sandoval allowed two earned runs on a pair of solo shots while he racked up seven strikeouts.

If you haven’t paid close attention to the Boston Red Sox farm system this year, now is a good time to catch up. The Red Sox have the prospect capital to swing a major deal ahead of the Aug. 3 MLB trade deadline. Twenty-year-old Franklin Arias — MLB’s No. 3-ranked prospect, per Baseball America — headlines a group that could help bring a big bat to Boston. Arias was called up to Triple-A Worcester last week, and while his promotion was well-deserved and overdue, the timing of it was curious. Are the Red Sox trying to showcase their No. 1…
BOSTON (WHDH) – The Boston Red Sox newly acquired infielder Curtis Mead has landed on the 10-day injured list with a broken left wrist after he was hit by a pitch in his first game with the team on Monday. A league source confirmed to 7NEWS that Mead has opted to not have surgery on his wrist, and the initial timetable for his return is six to eight weeks. Just more than eight weeks remain in the regular season. The 25-year-old infielder came over to the Red Sox in a trade with the Washington Nationals, who received 24-year-old rookie LHP…
With Curtis Mead hitting the IL with a potentially season-ending broken wrist, he’s joining a small group of hitters who played only a single game for the Boston Red Sox. Granted, Mead is expected to return for the 2027 season (if not later this year, possibly). But with Marcelo Mayer, Franklin Arias, and other trade options all available this winter, plus a looming lockout, it’s always possible this is it for Mead and future plans send him to another city. 39 position players are on the one-game wonder list for the Red Sox. The below isn’t a complete list, but…
