Sabalenka, coming off a recent injury layoff, struggled early in the match, dropping the first set as she worked to regain her rhythm. However, the Belarusian regrouped to take the next two sets, wrapping up the win in one hour and 58 minutes.  Sabalenka will next face Russia's Liudmila Samsonova. Earlier, Coco Gauff cruised past Moyuka Uchijima with a dominant 6-1 6-0 win in only 51 minutes. Gauff will next  face either home hope Zhang Shuai or Romania’s Sorana Cirstea.

(SOUNDBITE) (Portuguese) BRAZIL WINGER, ESTEVAO, SAYING:     "Of course, every top-level athlete tries to stay in the best possible condition, so I'm very happy to be doing a good part of that at Chelsea, helping my teammates, helping Chelsea. That goal (against Liverpool) was very important for me, not only for me, but for my family too, due to the adaptation and everything I'm experiencing now, which is all very new for someone so young. I'm very happy to be helping Chelsea, and when Chelsea wins, everyone is happy." 4.WHITE FLASH 5. (SOUNDBITE) (Portuguese) BRAZIL WINGER, ESTEVAO, SAYING:     "I am very happy for the warmth that Chelsea fans, Chelsea itself, have shown me. It's incredible! In this last game, I was warming up and I could see that people expect something from me, they expect something that I can deliver on the pitch. So I am very happy and I try to reproduce that on the pitch, to make them proud, because I see how much they value me, how much they want me to be there. So that's how I feel, you know? I don't want to disappoint them, I want to make them happy, make them proud in the best way possible, and the way I can do that is by scoring goals, helping the team win. I'm going to try my best to make them very proud!" 6. WHITE FLASH 7. (SOUNDBITE) (Portuguese) BRAZIL WINGER, ESTEVAO, SAYING:     “My adaptation is going much faster than I expected in England. It's a different country, a different culture, very different things, but thank God I've adapted as quickly as possible. I'm not fully adapted yet, but certainly more than I expected. So I'm very happy to have the opportunity to be playing, to be playing for a big club in Europe.” 8. WHITE FLASH 9. (SOUNDBITE) (Portuguese) BRAZIL WINGER, ESTEVAO, SAYING:     “I see it as motivation for me to keep improving in soccer.

Crawford, Eugenio Suarez and Cal Raleigh each belted home runs, sending the Seattle Mariners to an 8-4 victory over the Detroit Tigers following a nearly three-hour rain delay in Game Three of their American League Division Series on Tuesday (October 7). Seattle pitcher Logan Gilbert struck out seven and allowed only four hits over six innings in his second career postseason start. He combined with relievers Matt Brash, Eduard Bazardo, Caleb Ferguson and Andres Munoz to strike out nine. The Mariners, who lead the best-of-five series 2-1, can clinch their first trip to the American League Championship Series since 2001 with a win in Game 4 on Wednesday (October 8) in Detroit. The Tigers have dropped eight straight games at home and have not won in Detroit since September 6 against the Chicago White Sox. The Mariners jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the third inning. Victor Robles scored from third when the throw from Riley Greene in left field got away from catcher Dillon Dingler, allowing Robles to beat the tag at the plate. Randy Arozarena then singled to center to bring home Crawford. Seattle added a pair of runs in the fourth inning as Suarez hit his first home run of the postseason to center field off Detroit starter Jack Flaherty and Cal Raleigh singled up the middle to send Dominic Canzone home from second. Flaherty, who was making his 11th career playoff start, allowed three runs on four hits over 3 1/3 innings. Dingler scored to cut the deficit to 4-1 in the fifth inning when Kerry Carpenter grounded into a force out. Crawford pushed the margin to 5-1 in the sixth with his homer to right field off reliever Brant Hurter. He later flied out to left field in the eighth inning to score Luke Raley. Raleigh upped the lead to 8-1 in the ninth inning with his two-run shot to center off Brenan Hanifee that scored Arozarena. Detroit mounted a late rally on Spencer Torkelson's double that brought home Jake Rogers and Jahmai Jones, and Andy Ibanez's single that scored Torkelson.

VIDEO SHOWS: HIGHLIGHTS FROM GAME THREE OF AMERICAN LEAGUE DIVISIONAL SERIES BETWEEN TORONTO BLUE JAYS AND NEW YORK YANKEES COMPLETE SCRIPT TO FOLLOW SHOWS: TORONTO, ONTARIO, CANADA (OCTOBER 7, 2025) (MLB – See restrictions before use) SHOTLIST TO FOLLOW STORY: Aaron Judge hit a tying three-run homer in the fourth inning, Jazz Chisholm Jr. socked a go-ahead solo homer in the fifth and the New York Yankees avoided elimination in the American League Division Series with a 9-6 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays in Game 3 on Tuesday (October 7). The Yankees stormed back from a 6-1 deficit through 2 1/2 innings thanks to the homers from Judge and Chisholm off Louis Varland (0-1). New York forced Game Four at Yankee Stadium on Wednesday, when rookie Cam Schlittler will start for the hosts while the Blue Jays are expected to use a bullpen game. New York also overcame Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s third homer of the series. Guerrero went deep on Carlos Rodon's 2-0 changeup three batters into the contest and scored on a headfirst slide on a single by Ernie Clement in Toronto's four-run third. The Blue Jays led 6-3 with one out in the bottom of the fourth when New York's Austin Wells reached on a fielding error by third baseman Addison Barger. Trent Grisham walked, and Varland replaced Mason Fluharty on the mound. Judge swung and missed at a 100 mph fastball for an 0-2 count and took a timeout. On the next pitch, the AL batting champion and two-time MVP hit a fastball off the left field foul pole to forge a 6-6 tie. It was Judge's 17th career postseason homer. Before connecting, Judge was seen consulting with Giancarlo Stanton in the dugout during the pitching change. Judge ended the night 3-for-3 with a walk, his second career three-hit game in the postseason. He set a career playoff high with four RBIs. After Varland fanned Stanton for the first out of the fifth, Chisholm sent a 1-1 fastball into the second deck of right field seats for a 7-6 lead. Wells added an RBI single later in the inning. In the sixth, Judge was intentionally walked with the bases empty and one out. After Cody Bellinger doubled Judge to third, Ben Rice lifted a sacrifice fly. For the Blue Jays, Daulton Varsho hit an RBI single and Anthony Santander had a two-run single in the third. Rodon allowed six runs on six hits in 2 1/3 innings and was lifted after Santander's hit. After Rodon's short start, five New York relievers combined on 6 2/3 scoreless innings. Fernando Cruz got four outs, and Camilo Doval recorded three outs. Tim Hill (1-0) stranded Clement at second with the score tied in the fifth before pitching a 1-2-3 sixth. Devin Williams pitched a perfect seventh and got the first out of the eighth. David Bednar ended a five-out save by retiring Guerrero on a grounder to third base.
