The visiting Pittsburgh Pirates will turn to right-hander Carmen Mlodzinski on Sunday afternoon as they look to complete a sweep of the Milwaukee Brewers. Mlodzinski (1-1, 3.28 ERA) will oppose Brewers left-hander Kyle Harrison (1-1, 3.06). The Pirates scored three runs in the 10th inning en route to a 6-3 victory Saturday, fueled by RBI singles from Bryan Reynolds and Nick Gonzales. It was Reynolds’ 51st RBI in 102 career games against Milwaukee, which lost its fourth straight contest. The Pirates have clinched their third straight series victory against a National League Central rival this season. “In division, to be able to win series is really important,” Pirates manager Don Kelly said following Saturday’s game. “We need to continue to

Josh Jung is having an April to remember for the Texas Rangers, who will face the Athletics in the rubber match of a three-game series on Sunday afternoon in Arlington, Texas. Jung continued his hot streak with a go-ahead, two-run homer in the sixth inning of Saturday’s 4-3 victory. The win moved Texas one game over .500 and into a tie for first place in the American League West with the Athletics. After going 0-for-17 in March, Jung is batting .371 with four homers and 14 RBIs in 20 April games. He said after Saturday’s contest that he remains focused on improving his approach at the plate. “I think I could (improve) every night,” Jung said. “There’s a couple of

This Sunday Night Soccer spot matters more than it might have a few weeks ago. Real Salt Lake head to Dignity Health Sports Park for a 4:00 p.m. PT kickoff in Carson, with both clubs trying to climb in the Western Conference. RSL come in sixth in the West on 16 points at 5-2-1, while the Galaxy are 11th on nine points at 2-4-3 and still trying to steady themselves after a rough start to the league campaign. The match streams on Apple TV. The short-term form gives this a little tension. LA returned from a three-match road stretch with a win at Austin, a draw at Dallas after coming back from 2-0 down, and then a 2-1 loss at

Werder Bremen travel to MHPArena for Bundesliga Matchday 31 on Sunday, April 26, with kickoff set for 15:30 CEST. Stuttgart come into the match on 56 points from 30 games, one point behind fourth-place Hoffenheim and still very much in the Champions League race. Werder sit 15th on 31 points from 30 matches, so they are not in full panic mode, but they are still too close to the bottom to treat this like a free swing. In the U.S., the match is listed on ESPN+. The timing matters. Stuttgart just went 120 minutes in the DFB-Pokal semifinal and beat Freiburg 2-1 in extra time on April 23, which puts some real workload stress on this spot. At the same
