Manchester United opened their Premier League campaign with a nightmare at Hull, and Wayne Rooney is already calling for the club to rediscover their edge. The Red Devils looked disjointed and vulnerable against a newly-promoted side, raising serious questions about identity and intensity heading into the early weeks of the season.
Shifting to the transfer wire, Barcelona appear to be making a late move for Sporting CP defender Goncalo Inacio, with the twenty-four-year-old conspicuously left out of Sporting's matchday squad Saturday. Milan had been considered the frontrunners, but the Catalan giants are now pushing hard, and this one could move fast.
And in baseball, a rough night in San Diego as Padres starter Casey Mize exited Saturday's game against Minnesota after spraining his right ankle — not on the mound, but slipping down the dugout steps. It's a brutal, freak moment for a pitcher the Padres need healthy down the stretch of a playoff push.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
