    Taylor Ward’s 2-run double rallies Angels past Yankees
    ANAHEIM — In the end, the Angels turned the tables on the New York Yankees.
    Taylor Ward’s two-out, two-run double against Yankees closer Clay Holmes in the eighth inning put the Angels on top in their 4-3 victory on Tuesday night.
    Ward had gotten the chance to hit in the inning because of an error by Yankees first baseman Anthony Rizzo.
    For much of the night, the Yankees were clinging to a one-run lead they had built on two runs scored after misplays by Angels infielders.

    DALLAS — Karl-Anthony Towns scored 20 of his 25 points in the second half and the Minnesota Timberwolves held off the Dallas Mavericks, 105-100, on Tuesday night to avoid a sweep in the Western Conference finals.
    Anthony Edwards had 29 points, 10 rebounds and nine assists as the Wolves stayed alive in their first trip to the conference finals in 20 years, and just the second in the franchise’s 35 seasons.

    INDIANAPOLIS — The Sparks were so dominant during a momentum-shifting portion of the second half that they were able to withstand a 30-point night from much-hyped rookie Caitlin Clark.
    Kia Nurse scored 22 points and Aari McDonald added a season-high 21 points to rally the Sparks to an 88-82 victory over the Indiana Fever on Tuesday night, handing Clark her third straight home loss.

    Gavin Stone dominates for 7 innings as Dodgers sweep doubleheader against Mets
    NEW YORK — Gavin Stone strolled through the New York Mets’ lineup like a tourist visiting Central Park – without the fear of getting mugged.
    The rookie right-hander allowed just three hits over seven scoreless innings as the Dodgers completed a sweep of their doubleheader with the New York Mets, winning the nightcap, 3-0, on Tuesday.
    The Dodgers rallied for five runs in the final three innings to win the opener in 10 innings, 5-2.

    Taylor Ward has become the consistent run producer in Angels’ lineup
    ANAHEIM — After a tumultuous couple of years, Taylor Ward is happy that this season has been blissfully uneventful.
    The Angels outfielder began the 2022 season on a hot streak, but then he crashed into the outfield wall and suffered a shoulder injury that sapped his power for months. Last season he was in a slump in the first half, and he heated up just in time for a season-ending injury. He suffered multiple facial fractures when he was hit by a pitch.

    NEW YORK — After the rain, the dam burst.
    Given the gift of an unexpected day off – complete with a free night in New York City – by Monday’s rainout, the Dodgers slept off the lingering effects of a five-game losing streak and slowly came back to life, scoring five times in the final three innings of a 5-2 victory over the New York Mets in 10 innings in the first game of Tuesday’s doubleheader.

    NEW YORK — An unexpected day off complete with a free night in New York City thanks to Monday’s rainout was just the remedy the Dodgers needed to shake off the lingering effects of a five-game losing streak and sweep Tuesday’s doubleheader with the New York Mets.
    The Dodgers scored five times in the last three innings to take the opener, 5-2 in 10 innings, then rode seven scoreless innings from rookie right-hander Gavin Stone to a 3-0 shutout win in the nightcap.
