You're tuned in to Sports Desk, let's get into it.
The New York Liberty are headed to the Commissioner's Cup final, and Jonquel Jones made sure of it. The Liberty dismantled the Washington Mystics eighty-six to sixty-four, with Jones dropping a game-high twenty points. New York was dominant from wire to wire, and now they've got a championship game on the horizon.
Shifting over to baseball, Jackson Chourio is doing everything he can for Milwaukee, and it still isn't enough. The young Brewers outfielder launched two home runs on Saturday night, the second coming in the seventh during a comeback attempt, but the Brewers still came away with a loss. Chourio's breakout stretch deserves recognition even when the wins aren't following.
And in Minnesota, Ryan Kreidler came through when it mattered most. The Twins needed a hero in the eighth inning against St. Louis, and Kreidler delivered a two-out RBI double that gave Minnesota a five to four victory over the Cardinals. It was a quiet, gritty kind of win, the kind that keeps a team right where they need to be in a long summer of baseball.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
