Their semi-final win at Nottingham on Saturday afternoon was far from plain sailing, though. They suddenly have serious injury issues in their forward lines. Marco Vallerand was stretchered off after colliding with the rink boards, and Brett Neumann was also hurt in the semi. Neither will be available for the culmination of Sheffield’s attempts to win the Grand Slam. Sheffield were already without Mark Simpson, too, and he remains a doubt to return, while skipper Robert Dowd is playing through...

Christian Walker hit two home runs, including a game-ending two-run shot in the 10th inning, as the Arizona Diamondbacks stung the Los Angeles Dodgers by picking up a 4-3 victory in Phoenix on Tuesday. Six Arizona pitchers held the Dodgers to zero RBIs through nine innings as the Diamondbacks won for just the second time in their past six games. The victory came after a one-hour, 55-minute delay at the outset, as a colony of bees formed on the netting behind home plate. A beekeeper removed the...

Christian Walker hit two home runs, including a game-ending two-run shot in the 10th inning, as the Arizona Diamondbacks stung the Los Angeles Dodgers 4-3 in Phoenix on Tuesday. Six Arizona pitchers held the Dodgers to zero RBIs through nine innings. The victory came after a 1-hour, 55-minute delay at the outset, as a colony of bees formed on the netting behind home plate. A beekeeper removed the cluster to a standing ovation, and he stayed to throw out the first pitch before play ultimately...
But the Brackley Town boss insists preparations stay the same this week ahead of the huge showdown with Boston United at St James Park (kick-off 3.30pm). The Saints marched into the showpiece last Sunday as they secured a 1-0 win against Chorley in the semi-final thanks to a 76th-minute goal from Riccardo Calder. Boston made their way through by claiming penalty shootout wins at Alfreton Town and Scunthorpe United, the team who had finished the regular season in second, a place above Brackley....

I allowed myself to play Fire Emblem Engage on the easiest possible mode, and it finally got me back into gaming. The first time I picked up a Fire Emblem game back in 2010, a friend told me that the only correct way to play is in Classic mode with permanent death. For some reason, I took that to heart, and I played each subsequent game ready to restart my console during every skirmish and story battle so that I didn’t lose any of my friends. Due to unexpected upheavals in my personal life over...
Kawhi Leonard slowly walked onto the American Airlines Center court past the media and over towards where Paul George was talking to Clippers coach Tyronn Lue. Leonard tapped Lue on the hand and kept walking until he disappeared out of sight. A few minutes later, Leonard reappeared, sitting in a chair to put on his sneakers to get ready for practice. It was not going to be a contact practice, but it was another step towards helping Leonard get his game back in gear. Lue said Leonard didn’t have...
Both Andre Drummond (left ankle) and Ayo Dosunmu (right quadricep) were sidelined at the end of the regular season and heading into the play-in game. By game time against Atlanta, however, both were cleared, giving coach Billy Donovan some much needed depth.
Sheffield Wednesday’s relegation rivals could be without a key man for their huge final day clash with leaders Leicester City. The relegation picture still isn’t decided ahead of the final weekend of the season. Wednesday have given themselves a huge shot at survival, only needing a point to ensure they can’t be caught by Birmingham City in the final relegation spot. The Owls may not even need a point if Birmingham or Plymouth Argyle fail to win. It’s a similar story for Blackburn Rovers, who...
