While a scuffling pitching staff is one reason the Los Angeles Angels have lost five in a row and nine of their past 10 games, the men charged with guiding them continue to preach patience. As visiting Los Angeles aims to avoid a three-game series sweep at the hands of the Chicago White Sox on Wednesday afternoon, Angels pitching coach Mike Maddux is quick to avoid jumping to conclusions. Even as opponents have had success against a staff that has squandered leads of six and four runs since Sunday. “I like the guys. They like themselves,” Maddux said. “We keep them positive. Our job is to motivate and instruct and teach, and we continue to do that. And all we

Torque travel to face Deportivo Riestra in Copa Sudamericana Group F on Wednesday, April 29, 2026, at Estadio Pedro Bidegain in Buenos Aires. Kickoff is set for 6:00 PM ET, and the group context gives this match a pretty clear edge in terms of urgency.

That makes the betting setup interesting. Grêmio are

Racing Club travel to face Caracas in Copa Sudamericana Group E on Wednesday, April 29, 2026, at Estadio Olímpico de la UCV in Caracas. Kickoff is listed for 6:00 PM ET, and this is a useful early group-stage measuring point because Caracas enter with four points through two matches, while Racing Club sit just behind them with three. That table context matters. Caracas have already shown they can compete in this group, drawing 1-1 at Botafogo and then beating Independiente Petrolero 1-0. Racing Club opened with a 3-1 road win over Independiente Petrolero, but the 3-2 loss to Botafogo left them needing a response. Racing are still the more talented side on paper, but this is not a simple favorite
