MLB-NEWS

Rockies cut ties with Reyes...Royals do the same with Infante

DENVER (AP) — The Colorado Rockies have designated shortstop Jose Reyes (RAY'-uhs) for assignment. That means the Rockies have 10 days to release him or trade him. The move could cost the club up to $34 million.

Reyes completed a 59-day suspension for violating Major League Baseball's new domestic violence policy after being suspended through May 31 for violating Major League Baseball's domestic violence policy.

Since returning from the suspension, Reyes has been assigned to Triple-A Albuquerque.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Kansas City Royals walked away from veteran infielder Omar Infante.

They walked away from a big pile of cash, too.

The Royals designated Infante for assignment, likely ending his rather unproductive tenure in Kansas City. Unless he is traded or claimed on waivers, both of which are unlikely, the Royals will owe him the remainder of the $7.75 million due this season, $8 million on his contract next season and a $2 million buyout for the 2018 season.

Royals GM Dayton Moore called it "a mistake you don't like to make."

NBA FINALS

Warriors lose Bogut

CLEVELAND (AP) — Golden State will be without center Andrew Bogut for the rest of the NBA Finals. He suffered a knee injury in Game 5 of the series and will need six to eight weeks to recover.

But Golden State will have Draymond Green back for tonight's Game 6 in Cleveland after he served a one-game suspension in Game 5.

Golden State has a 3-2 lead in the series as it tries for a second straight NBA title.

NHL-TRADE

Hurricanes and Blackhawks deal

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — The Carolina Hurricanes have acquired forwards Teuvo Teravainen and Bryan Bickell from the Chicago Blackhawks in exchange for two draft picks. Carolina sent a second-round pick in the 2016 draft, the 50th overall, and a third-round pick next year to Chicago, which saves significant salary-cap space.

Teravainen had 13 goals and 22 assists for 35 points in his first full NHL season. He had four goals and six assists during the Blackhawks' Stanley Cup run a year ago.

HOWE-FUNERAL

Funeral for Mr. Hockey

DETROIT (AP) — Hundreds of friends and acquaintances joined Gordie Howe's family at a funeral service to say goodbye to the hockey great.

The service followed Tuesday's day-long public visitation in Joe Louis Arena, where thousands of people waited to play their final respects to Howe.

Among those in attendance at the funeral service were NHL commissioner Gary Bettman and Hall of Famer Wayne Gretzky, who wore No. 99 as a player in honor of Howe, who wore No. 9.

Howe died last Friday at the age of 88.

NHL-PENGUINS PARADE

Fans turn out in Pittsburgh

PITTSBURGH (AP) — An estimated 400,000 fans gathered in downtown Pittsburgh for the 2016 Stanley Cup champion Pittsburgh Penguins' victory parade. Some began lining up 12 hours ahead of time in drizzle.

The parade came seven years to the day after a 2009 parade celebrating the team's last Stanley Cup championship. That parade drew nearly 400,000 people.

The Penguins clinched the championship with a 3-1 victory Sunday night against the San Jose Sharks.

NASCAR-LARSON PENALTIES

Larson team penalized

CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — Kyle Larson interim crew chief Philip Surgen has been fined $25,000 and the Chip Ganassi Racing team has lost 15 driver points and 15 owner points for infractions at the race in Michigan last weekend.

OLYMPICS-RUSSIAN DOPING

Doping officials charge Russians with continued cheating

UNDATED (AP) — The World Anti-Doping Agency has alleged that Russian athletes and government agencies continue to obstruct and deceive drug testers, even as Russia tries to regain its place in Olympic track and field. In a report published two days before a key vote on whether to readmit Russia's track team for the Rio Olympics, WADA said testers have been intimidated by officials from Russia's FSB security service and that packages containing samples have been tampered with by Russian customs services.

Athletes have repeatedly provided false information about their whereabouts and evaded drug testers at competitions, WADA said. In one case, an unnamed athlete in track and field attempted to give a fake urine sample using "a container inserted inside her body" but was discovered and tested positive when her real urine was examined.
