Joey Cantillo whiffs 9 as Guardians sweep Marlins
Jul 12, 2026; Miami, Florida, USA; Cleveland Guardians pitcher Joey Cantillo (54) throws against the Miami Marlins in the first inning at loanDepot Park. Mandatory Credit: Jim Rassol-Imagn Images Brayan Rocchio and Chase DeLauter slugged home runs, and Joey Cantillo struck out nine batters in five innings, leading the Guardians to a 5-2 win over the host Miami Marlins on Sunday afternoon.
Guardians right fielder Kahlil Watson — Miami’s first-round pick in 2021 — also had a solid game, going 2-for-5 with one RBI, one stolen base and one runner thrown out at second base.
Cleveland pulled off a three-game sweep on the last day of contests prior to Tuesday’s All-Star Game.
Rocchio went 2-for-5 with two RBIs and two runs scored.
Cantillo (8-4) earned the win, allowing six hits, two walks and one run.
The Marlins had entered this series on a six-game winning streak. However, in this series, Miami scored a total of just five runs.
Tyler Phillips, Miami’s starter on what had been designated as a bullpen day, took the loss. Phillips (2-4) allowed two hits, one walk and two runs in one inning.
Marlins reliever Michael Petersen — who has pitched to a 3.07 ERA in 39 appearances — was pulled in the middle of the fifth inning due to an apparent right-hamstring injury.
It took Cleveland just seven pitches to score. Travis Bazzana drew a four-pitch walk, stole second and scored on Rocchio’s ground-ball single to right. Javier Sanoja, a 2025 Gold Glove utility player, made a strong throw home, but Bazzana beat it on a close play.
Later in the first inning, Rocchio scored on Kyle Manzardo’s opposite-field single to left.
In the bottom of the first, Liam Hicks appeared to have a double off the right-field wall. But Hicks stumbled rounding first, and Watson threw him out at second.
Miami wasted another opportunity in the second, loading the bases with no outs but failing to score. Cantillo got Esteury Ruiz on a popup before striking out Rece Hinds swinging at a changeup up in the zone and Brian Navarreto swinging at a changeup in the dirt.
Miami got on the board in the third as Heriberto Hernandez doubled and scored on Xavier Edwards’ two-out single.
Rocchio homered on a 98-mph Peterson fastball in the fifth inning, and the Guardians made it 4-1 on Watson’s RBI infield single in the seventh.
The teams traded homers in the ninth — DeLauter for Cleveland and Griffin Conine for Miami — but the Marlins did no further damage.

Bryson DeChambeau to debut set of 3D-printed irons at The Open
Jul 13, 2026; Southport, England; Bryson DeChambeau on the practice range during a practice round for The Open Championship golf tournament at Royal Birkdale. Mandatory Credit: Bill Streicher-Imagn Images Bryson DeChambeau will bring the latest in technology to a 137-year-old golf course this week, and into a major tournament that is even older.
DeChambeau is set to debut a full set of 3D-printed irons for 154th Open Championship, which starts Thursday at Royal Birkdale Golf Club in Southport, England, Front Office Sports reported Tuesday.
DeChambeau has used single 3D-printed clubs in the past, playing in this year’s Masters with a 5-iron built under computer control. According to the report, DeChambeau said the full set of irons was recently approved by the United States Golf Association.
A two-time U.S. Open winner (2020, 2024), DeChambeau did not make the cut in any of the three major tournaments already played this year. That comes after he had top-10 finishes at last year’s Masters, PGA Championship and Open Championship.
Currently a member of LIV Golf, DeChambeau won tournaments in Singapore and South Africa in back-to-back weeks in March.

Jun 25, 2026; Washington, DC, USA; Washington Wizards first round draft pick and number one overall pick AJ Dybantsa poses for a photo with his jersey during a press conference at InterContinental Hotel. Mandatory Credit: Amber Searls-Imagn Images The Washington Wizards decided they had seen enough from the top pick in the 2026 NBA Draft and shut down forward AJ Dybantsa for the rest of the NBA Summer League in Las Vegas, The Athletic reported Tuesday.
Dybantsa played two games in a Wizards uniform, averaging 25.0 points, 7.0 rebounds and 2.0 assists. The 19-year-old was the top pick out of BYU.
The Wizards also shut down second-year players Will Riley and Tre Johnson, who have also been productive. Riley averaged 25.0 points in two games and Johnson scored 26 points in the one he played.
The Wizards’ summer league players had five days of camp in Washington, D.C. before departing for Las Vegas.
The Wizards have not won more than 18 games in any of the past three seasons. Washington last made the playoffs in 2020-21 and last won a playoff series in 2016-17 when they advanced to the Eastern Conference semifinals.

Spain blank favored France to advance to World Cup final
July 14, 2026; Arlington, Texas, U.S.; Spain’s Mikel Oyarzabal and Unai Simon in action. Mandatory Credit: Tim Heitman-Imagn Images Spain are headed back to the World Cup final for the second time after denying France a third straight appearance with a 2-0 victory in a semifinal on Tuesday in Arlington, Texas.
Pedro Porro followed Mikel Oyarzabal’s penalty in the 22nd minute by doubling the count in the 58th.
Spain, the 2010 champion, will play in East Rutherford, N.J., on Sunday against the winner of the reigning champion Argentina-England match in Atlanta on Wednesday.
France will play in the third-place match in Miami on Saturday.
Spain have a 37-match unbeaten streak (30 wins, seven draws), tying Italy’s European record.
The best chance for France came in the 82nd minute when Spanish goalkeeper Unai Simon raced midway between the penalty area and the center circle to challenge Desire Doue for the ball.
Doue got to it but Simon ran back and cut the angle to make a save inside the box as two Spain defenders guarded the goal line. Simon (three saves) is the first men’s keeper to have six shutouts in a single World Cup.
Oyarzabal’s penalty in the 22nd minute put Spain ahead.
France trailed for the first time in the tournament when Oyarzabal scored his fifth goal of the World Cup with a shot to the upper right corner.
Lamine Yamal, a day after his 19th birthday, drew a foul by Lucas Digne on the right side of the box.
A long cross by Marc Cucurella was popped in the air by Digne. As he attempted a volley, Yamal snuck in behind him and as the ball hit his left shoulder, Digne kicked him in the left thigh, prompting Yamal to fall.
More misfortune befell France at the half-hour mark when veteran defender William Saliba left with an injury and was replaced by Max Lacroix, whose only action in the tournament was 90 minutes in the group finale vs. Norway.
Nearing 40 minutes in, Yamal set up an onrushing Fabian Ruiz but defender Dayot Upamecano was able to get a foot on the attempt to deflect the ball for a corner kick.
France were seeking to become the third nation to qualify for three straight finals, joining West Germany (1982, 1986 and 1990) and Brazil (1994, 1998 and 2002).
The French won the World Cup in 2018 and were runners-up to Argentina in 2022.
