You're tuned in to Sports Desk, let's get after it.

Boston handed New York another beating Saturday, making it three straight as the Red Sox took it four to one at Fenway. Jake Bennett was sharp through six and a third, and Masataka Yoshida set the tone immediately, going deep off Gerrit Cole to lead off the game. The Yankees have now been outscored sixteen to five across the first two games of this series, and Cole looked like a man who'd rather be anywhere else on earth.

Shifting to Pittsburgh, the Penguins made a move at the NHL draft that nobody saw coming — they selected both Marcus and Liam Ruck, twins out of Osoyoos, British Columbia, keeping the brothers together under one roof. It's a rare call by any front office, but Pittsburgh clearly decided the chemistry between these two was worth building around from day one.

And over at Wimbledon, Venus Williams says she simply cannot wait to share the doubles court again with Serena. The sisters have won that title together six times, and the prospect of one more run at the All England Club has the tennis world buzzing heading into the grass court season.

That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
