NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The NFL says the Pittsburgh-Tennessee game originally scheduled for Sunday will be played either Monday or Tuesday due to positive coronavirus tests among the Titans.

By BETH HARRIS AP Sports Writer
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Jay Johnstone, who won World Series championships as a versatile outfielder with the New York Yankees and Los Angeles Dodgers while being baseball’s merry prankster, has died. He was 74. His daughter, Mary Jayne Sarah Johnstone, says her father died last weekend of complications from COVID-19 and he also had suffered from dementia in recent years. In the 1981 World Series, Johnstone had a pinch-hit, two-run homer in Game 4 that rallied the Dodgers to an 8-7 win over the Yankees.
Indians rally for 8-6 win over Pirates, could host playoffs
By BRIAN DULIK Associated Press
CLEVELAND (AP) — The Cleveland Indians could be staying home for the first round of the postseason. Carlos Santana had four RBIs and delivered a go-ahead, two-run double in the seventh inning as the Indians rallied for an 8-6 win over the Pittsburgh Pirates to put themselves in position to gain home-field advantage for their AL wild-card series. The Indians need the Chicago White Sox to lose to the Cubs to move into second place in the AL Central and fourth in the AL on the final day of the regular season. The Pirates held a 6-2 lead in the bottom of the sixth, when Franmil Reyes belted a three-run homer that chased starter JT Brubaker and began the comeback.
Steelers stay perfect, keep Texans winless in 28-21 victory
By WILL GRAVES AP Sports Writer
PITTSBURGH (AP) — James Conner ran for 109 yards and the go-ahead touchdown midway through the fourth quarter as the Pittsburgh Steelers stayed perfect by rallying past the Houston Texans 28-21. The Steelers improved to 3-0 for the first time in a decade by putting the clamps on the Texans in the second half. Houston managed just 51 yards and two first downs after halftime as an early 11-point lead vanished. The Texans dropped to 0-3. Steelers linebacker T.J. Watt collected a sack to win bragging rights over older brother J.J., a star defensive end for the Texans.
Neshannok traveled to Freedom tonight for a game between the Lancers and the Bulldogs. The Lancers got points on the board early with two touchdowns early in the game. On their next drive however, the bulldogs began to fight back, managing to secure an interception. Neshannok managed to stick Freedom to 4th down, but as the Lancers were expecting a punt, the Bulldogs pulled off a fake punt and got themselves a first down. Freedom scored on the next play setting the score to 13 – 7 in favor of the Lancers. Unfortunately for the Bulldogs, Neshannok came back with another score to put their lead at 20 – 7 at halftime. Freedom started the 4th quarter strong with a 73 yard touchdown pass to tighten the score to a single possession game. Unfortunately for the Bulldogs, Neshannok was not willing to give up their fight. The Lancers managed to spend the rest of the game putting more points on the board. The game ended with a score of 54 – 20, in favor of Neshannok.

Kuhl goes 7 sharp innings, Pirates beat slumping Cubs 7-0
JOHN PERROTTO Associated Press
PITTSBURGH (AP) — Chad Kuhl pitched seven sharp innings and Colin Moran and Bryan Reynolds hit home runs in the Pittsburgh Pirates’ 7-0 victory over the slumping Chicago Cubs on Thursday. Kuhl finished his comeback season on a strong note, allowing two hits, struck out five hits and three walks. He sat out last season while rehabbing after Tommy John surgery. The Cubs, who clinched a postseason berth Tuesday, are stumbling toward the playoffs with five losses in six games. They have scored two or fewer runs in each of the five defeats.
