After taking two of three contests from the Pittsburgh Pirates to open a nine-game homestand, the Texas Rangers will welcome the Athletics to Arlington for the opener of a three-game series on Friday night.

He’s recorded seven doubles, four home runs and 11 RBIs in his first 25 games with the Rangers. After spending the first 10 years of his career with the Mets, Nimmo came to Texas in a November

April 24, 2026 By Scores And Stats | Serie A

Cremonese travel to Stadio Diego Armando Maradona to face Napoli on Friday, April 24, 2026, in the opening match of Serie A Round 34. Kickoff is set for 20:45 CET, with Napoli trying to steady themselves after a poor two-match stretch and Cremonese fighting to stay above the relegation line.

Nottingham Forest travel to the Stadium of Light to face Sunderland AFC on Friday, April 24, 2026, in a Premier League match with real stakes on both sides.

Sunderland are sitting 11th with a 12-11-10 record, while Forest enter 16th at 9-15-9 and still need points to feel safe. Sunderland are coming off a wild 4-3 loss to Aston Villa, but the bigger picture is still strong.

Montreal went 48-34-0 under Martin St. Louis and now gets the building change, which matters because Bell Centre can become a real momentum driver in playoff games. The Lightning are slight road favorites at
