Deadspin | Galaxy rally from 2-0 deficit, earn draw with FC Dallas Apr 18, 2026; Frisco, Texas, USA; LA Galaxy forward Joseph Paintsil (28) dribbles the ball as FC Dallas forward Petar Musa (9) defends during the first half at Toyota Stadium. Mandatory Credit: Chris Jones-Imagn Images The visiting LA Galaxy erased an early 2-0 deficit with a pair of late first-half goals and then choked off the FC Dallas offense in the second half to earn a 2-2 draw on Saturday night in Frisco, Texas. Lucas Sanabria got LA (2-3-3, 9 points) on the board and Joseph Paintsil equalized three minutes into first-half stoppage time. It appeared that Dallas (3-1-4, 13 points) snapped the tie when Kaick tallied in the 75th minute, but the goal was nullified for offsides. Petar Musa collected a brace for Dallas, giving him nine goals on the year and enabling him to take the MLS goal-scoring lead over Inter Miami’s Lionel Messi and Nashville’s Sam Surridge. But the Galaxy kept him in check after halftime. Musa needed just seven minutes to start the scoring, with the help of a horrific turnover by LA captain Maya Yoshida. Attempting to boot the ball laterally to a teammate in his end, Yoshida instead squibbed the ball right to Musa. Given plenty of time and space to make his move, Musa measured goalie JT Marcinowski and calmly booted the ball into the lower left corner from just outside the box. Dallas controlled the ball for most of the half, bolstering its advantage in the 38th minute via a nice buildup inside the Galaxy zone. Logan Farrington crossed from the left side and a sliding Musa poked it past Marcinowski. Sanabria pulled one back in the 43rd minute as his shot from the top of the box deflected off the shoe of a Dallas defender and eluded goalie Michael Collodi at the right post. Paintsil, playing his first match of the year after sitting out the first eight with injury, made it level via a fine feed from Gabriel Pec. Left open in the box, Paintsil wired a shot over Collodi and under the crossbar. Dallas tried 11 shots to LA’s nine as it stretched its unbeaten string to five matches. Both teams got five shots on frame. –Field Level Media #Deadspin #Galaxy #rally #deficit #earn #draw #Dallas

Deadspin | Behind Kevin Gausman, Jays strive to stop skid in matchup vs. D-backs Apr 7, 2026; Toronto, Ontario, CAN; Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Kevin Gausman (34) delivers a pitch against the Los Angeles Dodgers in the first inning at Rogers Centre. Mandatory Credit: Dan Hamilton-Imagn Images The Toronto Blue Jays will turn to right-hander Kevin Gausman in an attempt to escape an early-season funk when they meet the Arizona Diamondbacks in the finale of a three-game set in Phoenix on Sunday afternoon. The Diamondbacks secured the series win with a 6-2 victory Saturday on Corbin Carroll’s grand slam that broke a tie in the eighth, keeping each team on its current path. Arizona has won four games in a row and 10 of its past 13, and has not lost a series since being swept by the Los Angeles Dodgers to open the season. Carroll’s homer secured the Diamondbacks’ 10th comeback win of the season. “We’ve played a lot of (close games),” Carroll said. “Maybe when you are in those situations, you know you don’t have to press.” The Blue Jays have lost four straight games, six of their past seven, and have not won a series since a season-opening sweep of the Athletics. Toronto has played through injured-list stints to George Springer, Alejandro Kirk and Addison Barger this year. Gausman (0-1, 2.42 ERA) will oppose Arizona right-hander Ryne Nelson (1-1, 3.54) on Sunday. Gausman has given up three runs or fewer in each of his four starts this season but remains winless despite his low ERA. In two of Gauman’s starts, the Blue Jays have managed just one run. “We’re not scoring, but we’re definitely not scoring when he’s out there,” Toronto manager John Schneider said. “I feel like he’s been as steady as he has ever been here. So looking for him to continue do that. “He’s in a good place. Physically his delivery is sound. That’s the only time Kevin has been in trouble, with his delivery, and that’s been really good.” Gausman gave up one run and three hits, striking out 21, over his first two starts, both no-decisions. He gave up three runs and six hits in his last outing, when he went five innings of a no-decision in the Blue Jays’ 9-7, 10-inning victory at Milwaukee on Tuesday. Gausman has been successful against the Diamondbacks, going 6-2 with a 3.23 ERA in 10 career appearances (nine starts). Nelson, meanwhile, has been betrayed by his defense at times. He has given up 14 runs in four starts, but only eight runs were earned. Atlanta scored five unearned runs off him in his second start, a 17-2 loss on April 2. Nelson gave up two runs (one earned) over 5 1/3 innings in his most recent outing, a no-decision in a 9-7 loss at Baltimore on Monday, when the bullpen could not hold a 7-1 lead. Nelson has increased his slider and curveball usage this season to complement his high-90s fastball. Against the Orioles, he had seven strikeouts — three on a fastball, three on a slider, and one on a curve. “He’s had success pitching with velo (velocity) and only velo, but we want to allow him to go out there and change speeds, side-to-side as well as up-and-down,” Arizona manager Torey Lovullo said. “It’s a very conscious effort to have him pitch a little bit more than just going out there and let it eat with straight veto for 100 pitches.” Nelson is 1-0 with a 2.45 ERA in three career outings (all starts) against the Blue Jays. –Field Level Media #Deadspin #Kevin #Gausman #Jays #strive #stop #skid #matchup #DbacksApr 7, 2026; Toronto, Ontario, CAN; Toronto Blue Jays starting pitcher Kevin Gausman (34) delivers a pitch against the Los Angeles Dodgers in the first inning at Rogers Centre.

When it rains, it pours. In the 19th iteration of India’s summer cricket carnival, Chennai Super Kings captain Ruturaj Gaikwad has had a woeful batting run. CSK’s poor start to the IPL 2026 season (two wins in six matches) has piled on the misery.

Ruturaj, in the company of the new Super King Sanju Samson, was expected to carry the batting unit. But, with returns of 82 runs in six innings at a strike-rate of 112.33 and an average of 13.67, the 29-year-old has failed to lead from the front.

Having decided to return to the top of the order — he had preferred to walk out at No. 3 in the previous season — Ruturaj has often had starting trouble.

He has been dismissed for single digits thrice and scored more than 20 just once.

He has survived the PowerPlay only twice and even in one of those knocks, he was back in the dugout two deliveries after the field restrictions were eased.

Also read | Jasprit Bumrah a ‘fighter’, have no doubts about him — Paras Mhambrey

The opener has fallen prey to different types of bowlers — thrice to pacers, twice to left-arm spinners and once to a leggie — and the dismissals suggest he has to work on his technical shortcomings.

In Super Kings’ 180-plus run chases, Ruturaj’s returns of 174 in 13 innings at 126.08 have not been good enough in an era where elite batters and teams are mastering the art of hunting down huge targets.

The CSK skipper needs to shed his conservative approach and return to his combative self which has elevated him to where he is today.
