The Astros-Tigers winner faces AL Central champion Cleveland in a Division Series starting Saturday, and the Orioles-Royals winner plays the AL East champion New York Yankees.

Xander Schauffele led the way with five birdies in eight holes to lead a lot of red scores on the board for the U.S. team. It had a four-point lead going into the singles sessions and the outcome was never really in doubt. The final was 18 1/2 to 11 1/2. That’s the largest margin for the Americans on the road. Sam Burns capped off an unbeaten week. The Internationals’ only victory since these matches for players from everywhere but Europe came in 1998 at Royal Melbourne.Chiefs WR Rashee Rice could be lost for season with knee injury after collision with Patrick MahomesINGLEWOOD, Calif. (AP) — Kansas City’s Rashee Rice might be lost for the rest of the season after suffering a knee injury on a bizarre play against the Los Angels Chargers. Rice was carted to the team bus after the Chiefs’ 17-10 victory with his right knee in a brace that had a dial for range-of-motion control. The wide receiver was hit by his own quarterback, Patrick Mahomes, while both players were pursuing Chargers cornerback Kristian Fulton during an interception return. Coach Andy Reid said Rice will have an MRI on Monday. Reid was not optimistic about the results.Marlins part ways with 2023 NL Manager of the Year Skip SchumakerMIAMI (AP) — The Miami Marlins have parted ways with Skip Schumaker, ending the 2023 NL Manager of the Year’s two-season stint with the team. The Marlins went 146-178 under Schumaker, who was hired in 2022 as the franchise’s 16th manager. His contract was for two years with a club option for the 2025 season, which the team voided earlier this year. In his first season, Schumaker led the Marlins to their first playoff appearance in a non-pandemic year since 2003. They made the postseason despite a minus-57 run differential and eventually were swept by the Phillies in their NL wild-card series.Chastain passes Truex on late restart to win NASCAR Cup Series race at Kansas SpeedwayKANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) — Ross Chastain took the lead from Martin Truex Jr. on a late restart and won the NASCAR Cup Series race at Kansas Speedway on Sunday. William Byron was unable to chase down Chastain after he took the lead with 20 laps to go, though the Hendrick Motorsports driver still wound up with the best finish among the 12 to qualify for the second round of the postseason. The retiring Truex, who was eliminated last week at Bristol, finished third in what was his last race at Kansas. Ryan Blaney had a loose left wheel in the final stage but rallied to finish fourth, giving the defending champ’s postseason hopes a big boost.The final day for the Oakland Athletics arrives ahead of next season’s move away from the BaySEATTLE (AP) — The name Oakland being attached to the Athletics will ended Sunday after the final out of their season finale against the Seattle Mariners.

A’s manager Mark Kotsay says his jersey is going to the Baseball Hall of Fame, while Brent Rooker and Seth Brown are keeping theirs. The A’s played their final home game in Oakland on Thursday and will play next season in Sacramento. Oakland lost its final game of the season 6-4 to the Mariners.
