Three-goal second period gives Bruins Game 1 win over Panthers

SUNRISE — Last time the Boston Bruins and Florida Panthers faced off in the postseason, Florida was the scrappy underdog — the eighth seed who came back from a 3-1 deficit to send the Bruins — who notched a record-setting 135 points in the regular season — home earlier than anticipated. This season, the Panthers were the No. 3 team in the Eastern Conference, one spot ahead of Boston. That made no difference on the ice Monday as the Bruins started this series the way they began last year’s — with a series-opening victory. Boston took a series lead with a 5-1 win at Amerant Bank Arena in Sunrise. “We’ve...

Nick Gordon homers and gets 4 hits to lead Marlins past A’s 12-3

By MICHAEL WAGAMAN (Associated Press) OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — Nick Gordon had four hits, including his first home run in three weeks, and the Miami Marlins beat the Athletics 12-3 to end Oakland’s six-game winning streak Sunday. Josh Bell had a pair of RBI singles and Jonah Bride drove in two runs as the Marlins won for the third time in 12 games and avoided a series sweep. Miami got 14 hits and had eight players with at least one RBI, a stark difference from a day earlier when the Marlins’ bats were mostly muffled in a 20-4 loss to the A’s. “Super big,” Gordon said. “After last night, to bounce...

Lando Norris earns 1st career F1 victory by ending Verstappen’s dominance at Miami

By JENNA FRYER (AP Auto Racing Writer) MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. (AP) — Lando Norris should take a lesson from his last big party and perhaps tone down the celebration for his first career Formula 1 victory. His reaction following the Sunday victory in the Miami Grand Prix showed the British driver probably doesn’t plan to miss a beat. “Tonight’s going to be a great time,” Norris promised. “I’m just really proud. A lot of people, I guess, doubted me along the way. I’ve made a lot of mistakes over my last five years, my short career, but today we put it all together so this is all for the team. I...

Miami Grand Prix delivers on star power and race drama, and, shockingly, not in that order

MIAMI GARDENS – A sun-splashed weekend of fun, star-gazing and Formula One racing culminated Sunday in a stunning finish at the Miami Grand Prix. In a F1 shocker, Lando Norris, the 24-year-old British-Belgian driver for McLaren, won Miami Grand Prix 2024 at the International Miami Autodrome (Hard Rock Stadium) for his first-ever title. “What a race,” Norris said. “Finally, I managed to do it; I did for my whole team.” And in showing there’s something for everyone at this Miami event, there was even some pre-race news for Miami Dolphins fans. It was presumed that Max Verstappen, the Belgian-Dutch...

By MICHAEL WAGAMAN (Associated Press) OAKLAND, Calif. — Brent Rooker became the first Oakland player in nearly 30 years to homer twice in an inning, accomplishing the feat in the third inning to help the Athletics pound the Miami Marlins 20-4 on Saturday for their sixth consecutive victory. The Athletics’ only All-Star a year ago, Rooker drilled a two-run drive off Marlins starter Trevor Rogers (0-5), then added a three-run shot off Darren McCaughan in the 10-run inning. Oakland set season highs for runs and hits with 21. The rout came less than 24 after the Marlins shipped two-time defending...

By JANIE McCAULEY (AP Baseball Writer) OAKLAND, Calif. — The Miami Marlins are working on a trade that would send second baseman and reigning NL batting champion Luis Arraez to the San Diego Padres. The Marlins said Friday that the deal was pending a review of medical information before it could be finalized and formally announced. Miami changed its lineup minutes before first pitch in Oakland, pulling the 27-year-old Arraez out of the leadoff spot. Instead, he made his way through the visitor’s dugout at the Coliseum shaking hands and offering hugs and goodbyes with his now-former teammates,...

Dave Hyde: No-risk move for Odell Beckham Jr. gives Dolphins some good Plan B options

Say this for Odell Beckham Jr.: He makes everything more interesting. He gives this Miami Dolphins offense added options. He doesn’t have the electricity of his New York Giants youth. Nor does he come with the burdened payday he had last year in Baltimore. But his no-risk signing Friday with the Dolphins provides some interesting thoughts toward solving their primary problems last season: 1. Having a Plan B against good defenses. 2. Managing Tyreek Hill’s workload so he’s healthy in December and January. There’s Beckham Jr.’s role. There’s how he succeeds as a third receiver. There’s what he...
