LEADING OFF: Detmers tries to match Vander Meer, 3 twinbills

AP News A look at what's happening around the majors today:

___

AND FOR AN ENCORE

Reid Detmers has a chance to match Johnny Vander Meer's feat of consecutive no-hitters when he starts for the Los Angeles Angels at the Texas Rangers.

The 22-year-old left-hander pitched his gem in a 12-0 win over the Tampa Bay Rays on May 10 in just his 11th big league start.

"Since the day after, I've treated it like the next start," Detmers said Monday. "Just trying to push it off to the side as much as I can and just go about my business. I'm preparing just...

Fowler back home in Oklahoma still trying to find his form

AP News TULSA, Okla. (AP) ??" Rickie Fowler stood for nearly 20 minutes answering still more questions about his game and how can he get it back to where it used to be when he was a force in golf and notably in the majors.

Every now and then he'd cross his arms, or scratch his elbow, subconciously flashing the Olympic rings tattoo across his right forearm.

That tattoo is a link back to 2016 in Rio de Janeiro, when Fowler represented the United States at the Olympics and was at the top of his game in a three-year run that saw him reach as high No. 4 in the world. A zest for fun...

Houston RHP Odorizzi stretchered off in Boston, to get MRI

AP News BOSTON (AP) ??" Houston Astros right-hander Jake Odorizzi collapsed with a leg injury running to cover first base in the fifth inning Monday night against the Boston Red Sox and was taken off the Fenway Park field on a stretcher.

The team said he had "left lower leg discomfort," and manager Dusty Baker said Odorizzi would get an MRI. The pitcher was on crutches, in a boot and in good spirits after the game, Baker said.

"He's probably doing better than it looked like on the mound," Baker said.

Odorizzi, who entered the game with a 15 2/3 inning shutout streak,...

Epicenter is 6-5 favorite for Preakness without Rich Strike

AP News BALTIMORE (AP) ??" Kentucky Derby runner-up Epicenter was set Monday as the 6-5 morning line favorite for the Preakness Stakes, which will be run without Rich Strike.

The surprise Derby winner at 80-1 is not in the field of nine for Saturday's $1.65 million race. Rich Strike's owner felt the two-week turnaround did not give the colt enough rest and plans to enter him in the Belmont.

Kicking off the Preakness draw at a Baltimore-area restaurant, emcee Britney Eurton talked about Rich Strike pulling off "one of the greatest upsets in sports history. Though we might not...

Buck, Aikman excited about 'starting over' with ESPN

AP News It's been two months since Joe Buck jumped from Fox to ESPN. It wasn't until Monday that the gravity of moving into the "Monday Night Football" booth hit him.

Buck and Troy Aikman made their first trips to ESPN headquarters in Bristol, Connecticut, to meet with executives and future co-workers who are preparing for the upcoming season.

"It literally dropped out of the sky. The more I get around it, Troy and I were just blown away. We were in a conference room an hour ago with 20-plus people from all different parts of the support staff for 'Monday Night Football,' and I...
