Cal Raleigh is on another level right now. The Seattle Mariners catcher went deep in his very first at-bat Tuesday night, extending a remarkable run that ties a franchise record — four consecutive at-bats with a home run. That is not a slump you want to pitch into.
Shifting across the Atlantic, Raheem Sterling is set to appear in court next month after being charged with dangerous driving. The former England international crashed his car into motorway barriers back in May, and now faces formal legal proceedings. A difficult situation off the pitch for a player already navigating an uncertain club future.
And in the transfer market, Tottenham are moving fast on Omar Marmoush. The Egyptian forward is undergoing his medical at Spurs today after the North London club reached a full verbal agreement with Manchester City. Roberto De Zerbi is already at the stadium, and all signs point to this deal getting done before the day is out.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
