Speaking Saturday, WNBPA VP Breanna Stewart said the league’s response was “pretty polar opposite” to the players union’s initial proposal.

The Yankees have spent three-plus weeks now being outplayed by their opponents — and beating themselves.

The 44-year-old singer styled the look with a green button down and white sunglasses.

Welcome to the Cam Skattebo-Tyrone Tracy Jr. Era. 

Villa Park, Birmingham
The biggest names in rock, from Metallica to Slayer, came to pay tribute to the men who created their entire genre – and even in old age, Sabbath’s sound has bludgeoning force

Fireworks burst over Villa Park’s pitch, Black Sabbath wave goodbye, and the inventors of metal leave the stage for the final time. It has not been an epic show – just War Pigs, NIB, Iron Man and Paranoid – but is the farewell this extraordinary band deserve, with an undercard of stadium-fillers and festival headliners come to pay tribute.

The returning Bill Ward adds the swing other Sabbath drummers have never managed, Tony Iommi churns out those monstrous riffs, Geezer Butler flits around them on bass, and Ozzy Osbourne … is Ozzy Osbourne, a baffled and discomfited force of nature.

Some two dozen girls still unaccounted for after summer camps swept away as Guadalupe River rises 26ft in 45 minutes

Rescuers by Saturday had begun the grim task of recovering the bodies of children and adults who were swept away in a deadly flash flood in Texas, caused by a powerful storm that killed dozens of people.

At an evening briefing, local officials said that 43 people had been confirmed dead, 15 of them children, with at least 27 girls from a summer camp still missing.

Brian Tarrence, 51, was last seen June 25.

CNN reporter Ed Lavandera found the desperate father, Ty Badon, calling out his daughter’s name along with his son along the receded waters of the river that Friday morning were inundated and swelled up to 26 feet after a once-in-a-century storm struck the area. 

Piers and Ruffin Boyett were fast asleep at Camp La Junta in Hunt, Texas, when they awoke at 4 a.m. Friday to rising flood waters.

The Mets thoroughly outplayed the Yankees again.

DHS Secretary Kristi Noem addressed the deadly Texas flood, promising to upgrade "ancient" National Weather Service systems for better early warnings.

Sitting next to Gov. Greg Abbott, Noem was asked by reporters why the National Weather Service's alerts about the heavy rainfall and flash flooding were "delayed," and said a situation was inherited.

Hutchins died on Wednesday after suffering a fatal ATV accident near Jenner's Malibu condo. She was 29.

Of course the Blackhawks did as little as possible around July 1 because of course the Blackhawks are going to tank for Gavin McKenna.

• Captain says England were not good enough on the ball

• Jess Carter: ‘We were a bit scared, not aggressive enough’

Leah Williamson admitted England were not good enough on the ball and said “cheap, one-versus-one defending” cost the Lionesses badly in their 2-1 defeat against France, but vowed her side would improve before facing the Netherlands on Wednesday.

The defending European champions looked second-best to France for large portions of their meeting in Zurich and the Lionesses captain said: “When you’re losing the ball really cheaply, and then you’re in emergency defending, and when you’ve done four or five counterattacks in a row against quality like that, it is tough, but we hold ourselves to higher standards, in the individual battles.

“The positive is that I’ve not seen us like that, in terms of turning over the ball so much, for a while now, so yes [while it is] really frustrating, I think that’s how we’ll take today. Tomorrow, back on it.”

Elon Musk launched the "America Party" Saturday, calling for an end to the “uniparty" system after President Donald Trump signed the "big, beautiful bill" into law.

The Islanders had two more contracts on their to-do list before Saturday’s 5 p.m. deadline for player-elected arbitration.

• Kipyegon runs final 300m in 44 seconds to set record

• Chebet is first woman to run 5,000m inside 14 minutes

Faith Kipyegon bounced back in spectacular style from the disappointment of failing to run a four-minute mile in Paris by shattering her 1500m world record in Eugene.

On a day when the women’s 5,000m world record also fell in the 50th running of the Prefontaine Classic, the 31-year-old Kenyan looked to be odds against to break her record at the bell. Yet Kipyegon was able to find an extra gear as she ran the last 300m in a staggering 44 seconds to break her previous world record by 0.36sec.

New Orleans Saints star running back Alvin Kamara threw such a terrible first pitch before the Chicago Cubs-St. Louis Cardinals game that he asked for a do-over.

Decision to play Chelsea forward left England outnumbered in midfield during damaging opening defeat at Euro 2025

The hour mark was approaching when Sarina Wiegman rolled the dice or, perhaps more accurately, reached for the comfort blanket. A salvage operation of this scale had not been part of anyone’s masterplan, but at least Ella Toone and Chloe Kelly knew exactly how to move the dial at a European Championship. They were the history makers at Wembley in England’s most recent appearance on this stage; if it was going to be anyone, it surely had to be them.

There were to be no heroics this time, even if Selma Bacha’s late clearance was ultimately all that came between Wiegman’s players and a draw. That statement is, in itself, illusory because the manager must face questions about her selection here. She had plumped for Lauren James’s explosive gifts in the No 10 position, sticking to the claim that the Chelsea forward was ready to ramp up her recovery from injury, but the call backfired badly. England were misshapen and leggy where it mattered; the game simply got away from them and so, with another ill-conceived step against the Netherlands, could their Euro 2025 campaign.

Justin Verlander didn’t try to hide from the results.

• Argentina 12-35 England

• Fly-half Ford scores 15 points on his 100th cap

George Ford marked his 100th cap in style as he kicked 15 points to steer England to a highly impressive 35-12 victory over Argentina in the opening game of their two-Test series. In front of a partisan full house at the Estadio Uno in La Plata, an hour’s drive south of Buenos Aires, the century maker displayed his customary calm to steer the tourists through troubled waters early on.

England were reduced to 13 when losing two players to the sin-bin before half-time, yet somehow made it to the interval ahead thanks to Ford’s drop goal. From there they were the only team in the contest. In a remarkable transformation Steve Borthwick’s team bagged four second-half tries, three in seven minutes between the 42nd and 49th minute.

• Quarter-final: Real Madrid 3-2 Borussia Dortmund

• G García 10, F García 20, Mbappé 90+4; Beier 90+2, Guirassy 90+8

Real Madrid have set up a date with Paris Saint-Germain in the Club World Cup semi-final, despite a chaotic last 10 minutes, giving Kylian Mbappé a chance to face his former side on a big stage after he scored a fantastic acrobatic goal in a 3-2 win over Borussia Dortmund.

Xabi Alonso’s Madrid looked entirely in control for the vast majority of the match, until a remarkable stoppage time made things nervy and Thibaut Courtois’s last-gasp save preserved the victory. That incredible conclusion to an otherwise pedestrian match also included a late red card given to Real Madrid’s Dean Huijsen, the impressive new arrival in central defence, who will miss the semi-final as a result of bringing down Serhou Guirassy right after Mbappé’s stupendous volley for Real Madrid’s third.
