Wemby was kicked out of Game 4 after he was given a Flagrant 2 foul for the elbow on Reid

Andy Ibezs time with the Mets hasnt quite gone as planned.Ibez was picked up off waivers from the Athletics just over a week ago to help provide a boost for New Yorks shorthanded offense against left-handed pitching.The 33-year-old went hitless over his first two appearances, and on Sunday afternoon he hurt them with his defense as he received just his third start of the season at the hot corner.The infielder committed not one, but two throwing errors in what ended as a 5-1 loss.I just threw a little bit wide and it got away from me, he explained via a translator postgame. Its one of those things where you dont want it to happen, but its baseball.The first ended up prolonging the fourth inning by just one batter, but the second provided to be much more costly.He allowed Ildemaro Vargas to reach leading off the sixth, then the Diamondbacks made him pay a few batters later, as back-to-back two-out run-scoring knocks put this one away for good.The Mets' offense didn't do themselves any favors either, managing just four walks and four hits, but miscues like that cant not continue to happen.Those are routine plays, Carlos Mendoza said. You expect those plays to be made, its as simple as that.Unfortunately for the Mets, too often this season those plays have not been made.They'll need to sharpen things up moving forward as they look to shake off their early-season skid.

San Antonio Spurs star Victor Wembanyama was ejected for throwing an elbow out of frustration at the throat of Minnesota Timberwolves forward Naz Reid early in the second quarter of Game 4 of their rugged second-round NBA playoff series on Sunday night.Wembanyama was whistled for an offensive foul as soon as he struck Reid, who had swarmed the NBA Defensive Player of the Year outside the paint along with teammate Jaden McDaniels after the 7-foot-4 Wembanyama rebounded a missed 3-pointer by the Spurs.After a video review of the play, with the fans at Target Center chanting, Kick him out! Kick him out!, the foul was upgraded to a Flagrant 2 for excessive contact above the neck. That penalty triggers an automatic ejection, immediately swinging the balance of a pivotal game in the series toward the Timberwolves. The Spurs took a 2-1 lead with their 115-108 win in Game 3 on Friday.When the penalty was announced, Wembanyama appeared to ask teammate Harrison Barnes: What does that mean?After he slapped hands with each of his Spurs teammates on his way off the floor, with the arena sound system blaring Michael Jacksons Beat it!, Reid sank both free throws to give the Timberwolves a 38-34 lead. Wembanyama finished with four points, four rebounds and three fouls in 13 minutes.With Reid, Julius Randle and McDaniels in their frontcourt, the Timberwolves have had plenty of muscle and tenacity to send at Wembanyama, even if hes been good enough offensively to overcome it. He had 39 points on 13-for-18 shooting from the floor in Game 3.___AP NBA: https://apnews.com/hub/NBA
