You're tuned in to Sports Desk, let's get into it.
Juan Soto is sitting out for the second consecutive day with the Mets, sidelined by illness, and New York will be watching closely — you simply cannot afford to have your marquee bat out of the lineup when you're chasing ground in a tight division race. The hope is he's back in the order sooner rather than later.
Shifting to college baseball, UCLA has earned the top overall seed in the NCAA tournament after one of the most dominant wire-to-wire regular seasons in recent memory. The Bruins have been the standard all year long, and now they'll carry that target on their back heading into regionals on the road to Omaha. The bracket is set and the competition is fierce.
And out of Colorado, Deion Sanders and his staff keep stacking the two thousand twenty seven recruiting class, adding cornerback Prince Washington out of Houston as the fifth commitment in just the past week alone. Washington becomes the fourth defensive back in that class, and the Buffaloes are clearly building something with real intention on that side of the ball.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
