The NBA Finals and Stanley Cup Finals both have the night off Tuesday in a case of bad timing. So the diamond will be the best place to find some action tonight.But we won't forget to check in on the ladies. Caitlin Clark might have the night off but you may have heard there are plenty of other good players in the WNBA. PITTSBURGH PIRATES AT ST. LOUIS CARDINALSPaul Skenes is just getting started and we will all be 20 years older when he finishes his career. In other words, he will be a dominating force on the mound for a long time.Skenes has lived up to his lofty billing through five major league starts, going 3-0 and striking out 38 and walking just six in 27 innings. He has limited opposing batters to a .212 average but has served up four homers.The Pirates are 4-1 when Skenes starts and the club has a different feel when the LSU product is on the mound. Call it an expectation that anything can happen, like when Skenes tossed six no-hit innings and struck out 11 against the Chicago Cubs in his second start.The Cardinals have dropped six of their past 10 games and inconsistent right-hander Miles Mikolas will be trying to match zeros with Skenes. Mikolas beat the Houston Astros in his last turn but has allowed five or more runs four times this season. That 5.32 season ERA is not going to cut it Tuesday night.Pirates money line, -130 (DraftKings) Stake SportsBook Bonus$100,000 Daily RaceSign up now to claimFor help with a gambling problem, call or text the NCPG – (1-800-522-4700) Play nowBet365 SportsBook BonusFirst Bet Safety Net $1000 or Bet $5 & Get $150Sign up now and get the choice of two incredible offers.New Customers Only.

A threesome atop the rotation of Zac Gallen, Merrill Kelly and Montgomery certainly sounds like one that can help lead a team to the postseason.But the signing of Montgomery has been a disaster so far. He missed spring training and has displayed that those seven weeks of building up arm strength and increasing pitch counts were something he badly needed. His horrid 6.80 ERA says it even louder.Over his past two starts, Montgomery has allowed 14 runs and 17 hits in just six-plus innings in losses to the New York Mets and San Francisco Giants. So it doesn't sound like a turnaround is about to happen even though he is 3-0 with a 1.93 ERA in three career starts against the Angels.Los Angeles has won four of its last six games, including a 9-7 win over the Astros on Sunday courtesy of Logan O'Hoppe's walkoff homer. The Angels scored four runs or less in 15 straight games before Sunday's breakout and you have to figure they can at least reach four on Tuesday.Angels +1.5 run line, -135 (DraftKings).

They have dropped three of their past four games and have a lackluster (for their talent) 5-4 record.Las Vegas players and coach Becky Hammon talked about needing to get their act together prior to Sunday night's road against the Los Angeles Sparks. The Aces even backed it up by scoring the first 14 points of the game before eventually trailing by double digits and losing 96-92.A'ja Wilson sure isn't the problem after scoring 31 points to set an NBA record of 14 straight 20-point outings. Minnesota will be looking to figure out how to slow Wilson down while getting red-hot Kayla McBride — 15 3-pointers over the past two games — open for long-range bombs.Minnesota is a solid 8-3 and McBride has scored 25 or more points in three of the past four games. Napheesa Collier also is excelling. But that 80-66 home loss to the Aces in late May makes it hard to see the Lynx leaving the court victorious in Vegas.Aces -6 spread, -112 (DraftKings).

Despite having rediscovered their form in recent weeks under Frank Lampard, the Blues fight for a place in the Premier League top four took a considerable blow at the weekend, with Isaac Hayden s late header condemning them to their first league defeat of 2020. However, due to Manchester United losing against Liverpool, that means the gap to fifth remains at five points. One of the Londoners main pro…
Dries Mertens told Napoli they must back up their 2-0 victory over Liverpool in Tuesday s Champions League opener.
For the second season in a row Jurgen Klopp s Reds were beaten at the Stadio San Paolo without scoring a goal.
But last time out the Partenopei failed to qualify from the group stage despite having earned a 1-0 home victory over Liverpool, who went on to win the tournament.
Mertens penalty gave Napoli a late lead and Virgil van Dijk s rare error ensured former Tottenham striker Fernando Llorente could add a second to settle matters.
We gave everything and ran so hard, the Belgium forward told Sky Sport Italia.
When you take three points at the end of a game like that, it all feels good.

While Manchester United might have had many believing they turned a real corner after their 5-0 romp against RB Leipzig last week, the Reds came crashing back down to earth at Old Trafford on Sunday evening.
Eventually hit with a 1-0 defeat at home against and watching the Gunners pick up their first victory in the red half of Manchester since 2006, the former Premier League champions still find themselves sat way down in 15th and many calling for a change in the dugout.
Only continuing to show a string of issues on home soil since returning from football’s enforced break over the summer, United have the feel of a club in a domestic crisis.

Paris Saint-Germain have signed utility player Alessandro Florenzi from Roma on a season-long loan with the option to buy.
The 36-cap Italy international emerged through Roma s academy in 2011 – initially as a midfielder – and has made 280 appearances for the Serie A club.
He was named captain in 2019 but spent the second half of last season on loan with Valencia, appearing 14 times in all competitions.
PSG boss Thomas Tuchel confirmed on Wednesday he was in the market for a new right-back and a deal has now been agreed with Roma.
The French champions, who have also been linked with Arsenal s Hector Bellerin, announced Florenzi s arrival on their official website on Friday.

Brighton and Hove Albion captain Bruno will retire from playing after this weekend s Premier League match against Manchester City.
The 38-year-old has made 234 appearances for Brighton since joining from Valencia in 2012, including 13 starts in the Premier League this season.
Bruno, a member of the Brighton squad promoted from the Championship in 2017, has been offered the chance to remain at the Amex Stadium in a non-playing capacity.
Sunday s meeting with title-chasing City will be Bruno s final game, and Pep Guardiola revealed he was keen to bring the former Espanyol defender to Barcelona when he switched from Almeria to Valencia in 2009.

Messi guided Argentina to their first trophy in 28 years – La Albiceleste dethroning defending champions and hosts Brazil in July s Copa final.

Barcelona took a giant step towards a successful season with a thrilling comeback win over Granada, Ronald Koeman said.
The Catalans claimed a remarkable 5-3 Copa del Rey quarter-final win on Wednesday after forcing extra time at Estadio Nuevo Los Carmenes.
Barca were trailing 2-0 as late as the 87th minute only for Antoine Griezmann and Jordi Alba to force the additional period, after Francisco Trincao, Lionel Messi and Ousmane Dembele had all hit the woodwork.
Griezmann made it 3-2 only for a Fede Vico penalty to level matters again, but Frenkie de Jong scored from a rebound and Alba smashed home a stunning volley to secure Barca s semi-final spot.
Koeman last week suggested his side were not ready to compete for the biggest trophies and the Barca boss …
According to , West Bromwich Albion are interested in signing Phil Jones from Premier League rivals Manchester United in the January transfer window. Newly-appointed West Brom manager Sam Allardyce worked with Jones when he was in charge of Blackburn Rovers, and the ex-West Ham United and Newcastle United boss wants to bring the central defender to The Hawthorns.
Jones has been on the books of United since 2011 when he joined from Blackburn. The England international central defender has won the Premier League title, the FA Cup and the UEFA Europa League once each with the Red Devils so far.
The 28-year-old has fallen down the pecking order at Old Trafford and has been struggling for playing time for United for a while. According to , Jones has not made a single competi…
Granit Xhaka marked his farewell appearance for Arsenal with a brace to help the Premier League runners-up finish their fine campaign with a 5-0 thrashing of Wolves.
Xhaka is set to depart the Emirates this summer to join Bayer Leverkusen and signed off a rollercoaster seven years in north London on a high with a first-half double, although he did later miss a great chance for his hat-trick.
It failed to spoil the perfect goodbye for the previously much-maligned former Arsenal captain with Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Jesus and Jakub Kiwior also on target to ensure Mikel Arteta’s men regrouped from their title disappointment at Nottingham Forest last weekend to secure a 26th league win of the season.
While Xhaka’s impending departure had yet to be confirmed, the huge…
