• Anaheim Discovery Christian’s Bo Zheng and Valencia relay win Division 4 swim titles

  09-05-2025 07:29 via ocregister.com
  
  WALNUT — Bo Zheng gingerly climbed from the pool after surging late to capture the 200-yard freestyle. The Anaheim Discovery Christian swimmer wanted to protect his sore arm for a grueling race.
  Valencia’s girls competed in three relays and four individual events but still challenged for a CIF-SS runner-up plaque despite the small lineup.
  The CIF-SS Division 4 championships required plenty of grit from Zheng and the Tigers, and both responded Thursday at Mt. SAC.

  “We’ve seemed to bring out the best in them.”
  And the Diamondbacks brought out the worst in Yoshinobu Yamamoto.
  An early (very early) Cy Young Award frontrunner, Yamamoto gave up a grand slam to Gabriel Moreno and a solo home run to Ketel Marte as the Diamondbacks beat the Dodgers, 5-3, on Thursda

• Dodgers seek more efficiency, longer outings from starting pitchers

  09-05-2025 04:19 via ocregister.com
  
  PHOENIX — The math is simple. The solution is not.
  If the Dodgers are going to ask less of their relievers, who lead the majors in innings pitched (167) through Thursday, the only way to do it is to ask more of their starting pitchers, who have thrown the fewest innings in the majors (167).
  “It’s tough,” Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said. “Each night you look back and, whether it’s Roki (Sasaki) throwing 98 pitches in five innings and I don’t want t

• Is Pope Leo XIV — the Chicago-born new pontiff — a Cubs or White Sox fan?

  It didn’t take long for Chicago Cubs fans to welcome the first American pope into their arms, or for White Sox fans to claim him as their own.
  When Pope Leo XIV’s election was announced Thursday, ABC News reported Robert Prevost, of Dolton, was a Cubs fan.

• Alexander: Ducks face questions as Joel Quenneville takes over

  ANAHEIM — From a purely hockey standpoint, the Ducks’ hiring of Joel Quenneville to be the 12th head coach in the team’s history is a no-brainer.
  Anaheim has a roster of young talent ready to take the next step, and Quenneville has a proven ability to take such a collection of talent to greatness. He’s done it with the Chicago Blackhawks and the Florida Panthers, and he has three Stanley Cup rings as a head coach (and a fourth as an assistant in Colorado) to show for it.
