Dodgers lose to the Phillies<\/p>\n
From Maddie Lee<\/a>: Emmet Sheehan<\/a> backpedaled down the mound, watching the ball fly just over the left-field wall.<\/p>\n His start Monday, much like his season, had its ups and downs. But just when it seemed he\u2019d found a groove, he gave up a momentum-swinging solo home run to Philadelphia\u2019s Brandon Marsh in the sixth inning of the Dodgers\u2019<\/a> 10-7 loss to the Phillies<\/a>.<\/p>\n It was Sheehan\u2019s first start since the All-Star break, pushed back because of a rainout Saturday in New York. He gave up six runs in 5\u2153 innings, raising concerns again over his inconsistency. While the Dodgers (63-38) weather the loss of Shohei Ohtani<\/a> from the rotation, they need steadiness from the rest of their starters.<\/p>\n \u201cCertainly, he\u2019s getting a lot of opportunity,\u201d manager Dave Roberts said of Sheehan. \u201cIt\u2019s not the consistency that any of us like or want, Emmet included. Until there\u2019s another alternative, we\u2019re going to keep running him out there.\u201d<\/p>\n Continue reading here<\/a> <\/p>\n Shaikin: Why Dodgers aren\u2019t panicking over their $60-million bet on Kyle Tucker<\/a> <\/p>\n Dodgers box score<\/a> <\/p>\n MLB standings<\/a> <\/p>\n Go beyond the scoreboard <\/p>\n Get the latest on L.A.’s teams in the daily Sports Report newsletter.<\/p>\n By continuing, you agree to our Terms of Service<\/a>, which include arbitration and a class action waiver.

Pinch-runner Oswald Peraza scored from second base and pinch-runner Jose Siri reached third.<\/p>\n Continue reading here<\/a> <\/p>\n Angels box score<\/a> <\/p>\n MLB standings<\/a> <\/p>\n Lakers sign Matisse Thybulle<\/p>\n From Broderick Turner<\/a>: The Lakers<\/a> have signed forward Matisse Thybulle to a one-year, $3.3-million contract, people familiar with the deal but not authorized to speak publicly told The Times Monday.<\/p>\n Thybulle, who spent last season playing for the Portland Trail Blazers, made the NBA\u2019s all-defensive team twice over his seven-year career. He is a defensive wing player that the Lakers sought to surround Luka Doncic<\/a> and Austin Reaves<\/a>.<\/p>\n Thybulle averaged 5.8 points per game last season and shot 43.3% from the field, 39.8% from three-point range, in 30 games.<\/p>\n Continue reading here<\/a> <\/p>\n World Cup: Team Argentina sullied its reputation<\/p>\n From Kevin Baxter<\/a>: This summer\u2019s World Cup<\/a> will be remembered for a lot of things.<\/p>\n It was the first to be played in three countries, the first with 48 teams, and the overall attendance nearly doubled the previous record<\/a>. Norway\u2019s Erling Haaland and Cape Verde\u2019s Vozinha were captivating while Egypt and Canada both won World Cup games for the first time, advancing to the round of 16.<\/p>\n And Spain, glorious Spain, gave up just one goal in eight games to dethrone the reigning champions<\/a> and become the first nation in history to own both the men\u2019s and women\u2019s World Cup titles<\/a> at the same time.<\/p>\n But the tournament will also be remembered for a classless and churlish Argentina, which forever stained itself with a thuggish performance in the game and an ungracious one afterward.<\/p>\n If La Albiceleste had simply kept its composure, it would have secured a place next to Brazil and Germany, the only other countries to reach three finals in four World Cups, as one of the greatest teams of all time. Instead, some of its players turned the postgame handshakes into a brawl, with Argentine midfielder Leandro Paredes drawing a red card for grabbing Spain\u2019s Eric Garcia by the throat and shoving him to the turf.<\/p>\n It was believed to be the only red card ever handed out after a World Cup final, and the ignominy it brought was well-deserved. But the childishness was just beginning. When Spain assembled on the podium to accept the World Cup trophy, which had been Argentina\u2019s moments earlier, the South Americans turned their backs.<\/p>\n More than an hour later Lionel Messi<\/a>, who has cemented his stature as the greatest player in World Cup history, soiled that status by leading the players out of the locker room and through a back exit to the team bus, avoiding the media many had been so eager to speak with during the team\u2019s unbeaten run to the final.<\/p>\n Continue reading here<\/a> <\/p>\n Despite some irritating flaws, 2026 World Cup a rousing success for FIFA, U.S. and fans<\/a> <\/p>\n This day in sports history<\/p>\n 1876 \u2014 Princeton takes the team championship in the first IC4A (Intercollegiate Association of Amateur Athletes Association) track and field meet.<\/p>\n 1957 \u2014 Lionel Herbert wins the PGA championship with a 2-1 final round victory over Dow Finsterwald.<\/p>\n 1957 \u2014 Althea Gibson becomes the first Black player to win a major U.S. tennis tournament.<\/p>\n 1963 \u2014 Jack Nicklaus wins the PGA championship by two strokes over Dave Ragan to become the fourth golfer to win the three major United States titles.<\/p>\n 1968 \u2014 Arnold Palmer becomes the first PGA golfer to earn $1 million over his career despite losing by one stroke to Julius Boros in the PGA championship.<\/p>\n 1974 \u2014 Sandra Haynie edges Carol Mann and Beth Stone by one stroke to win the U.S. Women\u2019s Open championship.<\/p>\n 1979 \u2014 Spain\u2019s Seve Ballesteros captures the British Open by three strokes over Ben Crenshaw and Jack Nicklaus.<\/p>\n 1985 \u2014 John Henry, the greatest money winner in horse racing history, is retired.
