MLB: The American League pulled out a 2-1 victory over the National League last night on Robinson Cano’s home run off Wade Davis leading off the 10th inning. National League catcher Yadier Molina tied it with a sixth-inning blast, one inning after Miguel Sano hit an RBI single. It’s the fifth straight win for the A-L, which ties the all-time series at 43 wins apiece with two ties. Brewers closer Corey Knebel, the team’s lone representative, did not see action in the game.

NASCAR: Joe Gibbs Racing is replacing Matt Kenseth with Erik Jones in the No. 20 Toyota next season. The 45-year-old Kenseth is the oldest current driver for Gibbs and has 38 career victories, many coming since joining the team four years ago. The 21-year-old Jones is a Gibbs development driver and could have been lost to the team if he hadn’t placed somewhere on it for 2018.
