Kansas State’s Will Brennan, Jake Scudder and Cameron Thompson were each named All-Big 12 Second Team while Brennan and Thompson were also selected to the All- Freshman Team, as the conference announced its end-of-season awards Tuesday. According to a release from K-State Athletics, Scudder becomes the second Wildcat to be named second team All-Big 12 in consecutive seasons (Jared King, 2011-12), as the senior first baseman was also named 2016 Big 12 Newcomer of the Year following his junior campaign. Brennan and Thompson are the eighth and ninth Wildcats to be selected to the Big 12’s All-Freshman Team since the…

(AP) Danny Duffy beat the Yankees for the second time in a week and rookie Jorge Bonifacio capped a three-run, seventh-inning rally with a go-ahead, two-run homer that led the Kansas City Royals (19-26) over New York 6-2 on Tuesday night. Lorenzo Cain, Whit Merrifield and Mike Moustakas also homered late for the Royals, who went deep four times in a span of nine batters. New York rookie Jordan Montgomery took a one-hit shutout and 2-0 lead into the seventh before a solo homer by Cain, who had been hitless in 14 at-bats. On the 22nd anniversary of Mariano Rivera’s…

Gregorius, Gardner and Carter homer, Yankees beat Royals 4-2 Didi Gregorius, Brett Gardner and Chris Carter homered, and the New York Yankees once again downed Jason Vargas by beating the Kansas City Royals 4-2 Monday night.

The Royals, with the worst record in the AL, have lost five of seven. Vargas (5-3) began the day with a 2.03 ERA, tied for second-best in the majors. But the lefty fell to 0-7 lifetime against…

Game one (AP) Mike Minor’s road back to the majors was not an easy one. Shoulder surgery kept him out of the majors for two years and resulted in a move to the bullpen. Minor got his first victory since 2014 with 1 1/3 scoreless innings for the Kansas City Royalsk, who beat the Minnesota Twins 6-4 Sunday in a doubleheader opener. Brandon Moss hit two of Kansas City’s four home runs, and Salvador Perez and Jorge Bonifacio each hit two-run homers to boost the sluggish Royals offense. Minor (1-1) relieved Jake Junis with a 5-2 lead in the fifth,…

The Bears won their seventh straight game and 10th in their last 11 games overall. The Wildcats plated 11 runs in the top of the third inning to take a 12-3 lead, but…
