In a sight all too familiar to Yankees fans, a New York pitcher has been suspended after violating the league’s policy on domestic violence / personal conduct.
The organization announced Wednesday that 31-year-old Jimmy Cordero is suspended for the rest of the year after “violating Major League Baseball’s Joint Domestic Violence, Sexual Assault and Child Abuse Policy.”
Prior to tonight’s game, the Yankees recalled RHP Randy Vásquez (#98) from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.
Chet Holmgren did not play a single game during the 2022/23 NBA regular season, so a lot of fans have forgotten about the former No. 2 overall NBA Draft pick. It might sound silly to say, but it’s true.
Holmgren spent all of last year on the bench, and had not graced the court since August until Monday, which, in a lot of ways, shifted the hype from the one-and-done Gonzaga star to Victor Wembanyama. 7-foot-1 Holmgren will essentially begin his rookie year alongside the 2023 No. 1 pick, who also stands above seven feet.

Georgia Hall understands giving back will only help keep the women’s game playing at venues like Pebble Beach for future major championships.
There is a reason Georgia Hall is a fan favorite on the LPGA Tour.
The 2018 Ricoh Women’s British Open champion loves giving back to her community and growing the women’s game. It’s easy to understand why Hall is beloved on the LPGA Tour. She is also one of the best female golfers in the world.

Despite the recent shakeup, Big 12 commissioner Brett Yormark wants the conference to stay at 14 teams, hinting that it could once again expand.
“I’d like to stay at 14 [teams] even with the departure of Texas and Oklahoma, candidly,” Yormark told Spencer Linton of BYU Sports Nation. “We’ll see if that’s a possibility or not. But I love 12.
Ja Morant has been mostly quiet on social media since the NBA announced his 25-game suspension in June for holding a gun on an Instagram live stream.

Veteran guard Isaiah Thomas tweeted Wednesday that Morant “will have his best season yet… on some MVP s—” with Derrick Rose “connected to his hip all year long.
Both Peyton and Eli Manning know what it’s like to grow up in the shadow of a famous father. Each struggled at times to break free from the legacy of College Football Hall of Fame quarterback Archie Manning, a legend at Ole Miss who went on to have a lengthy NFL career.
However, being on the other end of the equation is a new—and occasionally humbling—experience for two of the most distinguished siblings in the history of sports.
On Saturday, a viral photograph made the rounds comparing Peyton and Eli’s physiques with that of their nephew Arch, now a quarterback at Texas.
