Through their first 18 games of September, the Red Sox had only scored more than seven runs once. In Sunday’s split doubleheader with the Minnesota Twins, they did so twice and came away

In the first inning of Sunday’s afternoon matchup with the Twins, Red Sox manager Alex Cora didn’t hold back as he let the umpires know exactly how he felt about a call. With one out, Red Sox starter Nick Pivetta threw to second in an attempt to pick off Byron Buxton.

Mikel Arteta has said he expects 100 Premier League games to feature at least one sending off this season after Leandro Trossard was dismissed in Arsenal's 2-2 draw at Manchester City.

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta says he expects “100 Premier League games” this season to see players sent off for delaying restarts after Leandro Trossard received a second yellow card for the offence during Sunday’s 2-2 draw with Manchester City.

There were a number of flashpoints both throughout and after the game, though one of the standouts is surely Leandro Trossard ’s red card. The forward was sent off for a second booking in first-half stoppage time for kicking the ball away after referee Michael Oliver had blown the whistle for a foul.
