NEWARK, N.J. (AP) — Evgeni Malkin scored two goals and set up another to lead the slumping Pittsburgh Penguins to a 5-2 victory over the New Jersey Devils. Evan Rodrigues and defensemen Justin Schultz and Kris Letang also scored as the Penguins won for only the third time in 11 games. Matt Murray made 20 saves to help Pittsburgh reach 40 wins for the seventh straight season and 13th time since 2006-07. The only exception was the 48-game lockout-shortened season in 2012-13. Nikita Gusev and Miles Wood scored for New Jersey, which won its previous two games. Mackenzie Blackwood stopped 28 shots but the last-place Devils dropped to 6-3-2 in their last 11.

Humble Hayes; Pirates 3B prospect impressing as callup nears

Humble Hayes; Pirates 3B prospect impressing as callup nears
By WILL GRAVES AP Sports Writer
BRADENTON, Fla. (AP) — Pittsburgh Pirates third base prospect Ke’Bryan Hayes is trying to stay patient while waiting for a call-up to the majors. The 23-year-old is the organization’s top minor-league prospect. His rise through the ranks slowed a bit in 2019 after he struggled a bit at the plate at Triple-A Indianapolis. Hayes spent the offseason working on his swing and is hitting a solid .318 so far during spring training. Hayes is already considered one of the best defensive third basemen in baseball, something he picked up from his father Charlie, who played 14 seasons in the majors and won the 1996 World Series with the New York Yankees.

AVONDALE, Ariz. (AP) — Joey Logano raced to his second NASCAR Cup Series win in three weeks, holding off Kevin Harvick over the final two laps after an overtime restart Sunday at Phoenix Raceway.  Also the winner two weeks ago in Las Vegas for Team Penske, Logano has 25 career Cup victories. He overcame several tough moments, including a pit-road penalty for an uncontrolled tire and a broken jack during another stop. A late caution triggered the two-lap overtime shootout with Logano, Harvick and Kyle Busch all in a decent position to win. Logano had a good restart at the mile oval and was able to hold off Harvick. Busch was third.
