Entering the bottom of the ninth in their game against the Mariners Monday night, the Royals had already weathered a strange series opener.
Kansas City got 6 2/3 no-hit innings from pitcher Brady Singer, his third career no-hit bid of five innings or more, only to watch Seattle explode for six runs in the eighth and ninth.

As fans and media outside of the 49ers facility wondered whether or not Brock Purdy would be the starting quarterback after his emergence late last season, those in and around the franchise have never had a doubt.

The NBA’s No. 1 overall draft pick, Victor Wembanyama, is used to turning heads based on his sheer talent and size. But on Monday, the Spurs rookie center became a hot topic on social media for a different reason… his new hair style.

Immediately, social media picked up on it with mixed reactions – some even wondering if Wembanyama lost a bet.
