She just wants to play ball. Total coward, cheap shot to call her a coward for not being your puppet.This is the perfect response from Portnoy. Clark is focusing on playing her sport to the best of her ability and doesnt owe anyone her political thoughts.Photo by Soobum Im/Getty ImagesRegardless of how she personally feels, Clark isnt looking to add more division over a topic that has already been majorly polarising within the WNBA and has led to non-basketball-related questions dominating the discourse.What did Caitlin Clark say about the Sophie Cunningham controversy?After the Fevers 100-108 loss to the Minnesota Lynx on Sunday, Clark publicly addressed where she and the rest of the Fever stand relating to Cunninghams comments and the ensuing controversy.Its not a discussion we have in our locker room; its for the leagues and the governing bodies to find solutions. My focus is on basketball and how we can get wins.This debate is likely going to continue for the next few weeks until WNBA Playoff basketball can hopefully bring the attention back onto the court.The Fever are 19-11 this season and tied for fifth in the standings, hoping to make a deep Playoff run and return to the WNBA Finals.Read more:Caitlin Clark reaches another historic WNBA milestone despite Indiana Fever loss to Minnesota LynxWhy Kelsey Plum trade to Phoenix Mercury has been labelled a head-scratcherSophie Cunninghams pre-game photo with Riley Gaines draws strong reaction from fans

DENVER, CO - AUGUST 03: Kenny Piper #50 of the Tampa Bay Rays runs during the game between the Tampa Bay Rays and the Colorado Rockies at Coors Field on Monday, August 3, 2026 in Denver, Colorado. (Photo by Ray Bahner/MLB Photos via Getty Images) | MLB Photos via Getty ImagesThis game had a little bit of everything, and it really was not as close as the final score. This game was well in hand very early, but Coors did what it often does and made things interesting late. It is rather crazy this game was 13-9 with the wind screaming in from left field that actually supressed what would have easily been a three-run home run by Hunter Goodman. View LinkThis was one of several interesting plays disrupted by the wind in the outfield, but the most notable one as it would have plated the first three baserunners of the inning before an out was recorded in the 9th. These were the types of games Coors was infamous for before the humidor came into play, so it was comforting to see the Rays get out to an early lead the way they did.The matchup on paper could not have been better for the beleaguered Rays offense coming off a slumber of a weekend series. Michael Lorenzen was the starter for the Rockies and came into the outing with a 8.86 ERA at home, and that number only got worse when Junior Caminero hit this 442 ft laser beam the other way in the first inning:View LinkThe second inning was no better than the first as consecutive singles by Chandler Simpson and Richie Palacios brought Kenny Piper to the plate for his first major league plate appearance. Piper is the 56th different catcher to put on a Rays uniform in franchise history and he could barely contain his excitement for his first at bat, which resulted in him drawing a walk to load the bases:Taylor Walls would single to drive in the first two followed by a Yandy Diaz sacrifice fly to plate Piper. Walls would steal second and come around to score on the second of Jonathan Arandas four hits on the evening. Caminero would come up later and blast another long home run, this one into the teeth of that aforementioned wind from left field:View LinkThe offense would continue to pick up some runs off singles and baserunning while Ian Seymour kept the Rockies offense at bay through the first six innings. Seymour pitched about as well as one can in Coors striking out 9, walking none, while scatting seven hits over six complete inningsView LinkSeymour generated 18 swings and misses by Colorado hitters tonight, 11 coming off the changeup. He featured the pitch this evening, and aside from a hanging one which Ezequiel Tovar hit out, it was fantastic for him tonight. Michael Grove, Casey Legumina, and Kevin Kelly had to get the final nine outs and the former two made things interesting enough that Kelly was called in to throw one pitch to get the elusive final out of the 9th inning.The 9th inning saw Richie Palacios blast a no-doubt homer run to plate Cedric Mullins after his leadoff double, but the highlight of the inning belonged to Piper collecting his first major league hit:View LinkThe dugout was absolutely elated for him, which was heartwarming. Longtime fans might remember the 0 for 25 stretch Stephen Vogt had in his only season with the club and how he was thrown out at first by a hair in his final at bat of the season. It was great to see Piper get his first ht as a 28-year old who has spent the past five years in the organization while earning the admiration of his peers in that time.Piper was called up from Double-A Montgomery as an emergency backup plan for the trade deadline plans, and it worked out for all involved. He and the rest of the offense bankged out 15 hits and went 6 for 14 with runers in scoring position on the evening. This was a much needed outing after the offense was catatonic in the series against the White Sox and the club hopes to continue the effort against Gabriel Hughes Tuesday evening with new catcher Liam Hicks likely hitting cleanup and receiving new starter Freddy Peralta.

The Diamondbacks pursuit of a starting pitcher at the trade deadline hit a snag during the middle of the day on Monday, Aug. 3, when the New York Mets backed out of a potential deal that would have sent right-hander Clay Holmes to Arizona, multiple sources said.The Mets called off the trade due to concerns they had after reviewing medical records of a Diamondbacks prospect.The teams tried to rework the deal with different players involved but were unable to reach an agreement, sources said.As with all deals, the sides agreed on names but needed to review medicals before finalizing the trade. During the time the Diamondbacks were waiting on an answer from the Mets this was roughly three hours before the trade deadline on Monday afternoon other potential starting pitching targets came off the board in other trades, a source said. The Diamondbacks were left without the starting pitching upgrade they had hoped to land.Holmes, 33, posted a 2.39 ERA in nine starts for the Mets before landing on the injured list with a fractured fibula in his right leg. The Mets wound up trading Holmes, along with outfielder Tyrone Taylor, to the Chicago Cubs in exchange for infield prospect Jefferson Rojas.Diamondbacks general manager Mike Hazen seemed to refer to the failed trade during an appearance on the clubs broadcast on Monday night.This time of year, with the position this team is in, theres an aggressiveness thats and we were, I mean, we laid a lot of players out there that were available, but we just didnt get the deals done, Hazen said. We had some things go awry on us in the middle of the day. But theres no excuses.The club made only one deal Monday, acquiring outfielder Lars Nootbaar from the St. Louis Cardinals in exchange for two prospects and a player to be named later.This article originally appeared on Arizona Republic: Mets nixed trade of frontline starter to Diamondbacks, sources say
