Bo Bichette had four hits and three RBIs as the New York Mets defeated the Seattle Mariners 7-1 on June 3 in Seattle. Bichette’s 19th career four-hit game — and his first as a Met after signing a three-year, $126 million contract this offseason — included a broken-bat single in the fourth inning that broke a 1-1 tie and a sacrifice fly in the eighth. Freddy Peralta (4-4) threw six strong innings, allowing one run on six hits with six strikeouts. Relievers Joe Gerber, Brooks Raley and Luke Weaver kept Seattle hitless over the final three innings to close the game. Jared Young and A.J. Ewing each had two hits, while Mariners starter George Kirby was chased after four innings (now 5-5). J.P. Crawford supplied Seattle’s lone run with a leadoff homer. The Mets head to San Diego Friday with RHP Christian Scott lined up to start; the Mariners begin a 10-game road trip with RHP Bryan Woo scheduled to start.

The Los Angeles Rams acquired two-time Defensive Player of the Year Myles Garrett from the Cleveland Browns in a blockbuster deal finalised June 1–2, 2026. Los Angeles sent edge rusher Jared Verse plus a 2027 first-round pick, a 2028 second-round pick and a 2029 third-round pick to Cleveland. Garrett, 30, set the NFL single-season sack record (23) in 2025 and has 125.5 career sacks; he waived a no-trade clause to join a Rams team built to win immediately. Browns general manager Andrew Berry said the offer — a young, cost-controlled starter in Verse and three premium picks — met multiple short- and long-term objectives and was “too great” to refuse, rejecting suggestions the move signals tanking. Verse, 2024 Defensive Rookie of the Year, initially said he was upset but pledged to work. Financial details increase the stakes: Garrett’s 2026 cap hit was modest ($8.14m) but his contract escalates into large payments in 2029–30 under a four-year, $160m extension; Verse carries a roughly $4.1m cap hit and is under team control. Rams coach Sean McVay and media reports have fuelled speculation that retired Rams great Aaron Donald may consider an unretirement to pair with Garrett.

PARIS, June 3 — The French Open produced more shocks on Wednesday as qualifier Maja Chwalinska and Russia’s Diana Shnaider advanced to the women’s semi-finals while world number one Aryna Sabalenka suffered a stunning collapse. Poland’s Chwalinska beat Russia’s Anna Kalinskaya 7-6(3) 6-3 on Court Philippe Chatrier to become only the second qualifier in the Open era to reach the Roland Garros semi-finals; her run guarantees a career-changing payday (about $870,000) and a jump into the top 30. Earlier, 25th-seed Diana Shnaider rallied from a set and a double break down to topple Sabalenka 3-6 7-5 6-0, with the world number one conceding a deep mental collapse after losing 12 of the last 13 games. The shock results leave the women’s draw without a former major champion in the last four — the first time since 1977. On the men’s side, Matteo Arnaldi progressed to the semi-finals after Matteo Berrettini retired with a hip problem while trailing 7-5, 5-2, setting up an all-Italian semi with Flavio Cobolli. Windy conditions and the decision to keep Chatrier’s roof open drew criticism after several matches were disrupted.

The Toronto Blue Jays reacquired right-hander Simeon Woods Richardson from the Minnesota Twins for cash considerations, sources reported June 3-4, 2026. Woods Richardson, 25, was designated for assignment by Minnesota after a difficult start to the season in which he went 0-7 with a 7.74 ERA in 12 appearances (10 starts). The right-hander, a second-round pick in 2018, has a 12-17 major-league record with a 4.76 ERA across 65 games and 61 starts. He previously pitched in Toronto’s minor-league system from 2019-21 and was part of the 2021 trade that sent him to Minnesota in the deal for José Berríos. The move returns a familiar arm to a Blue Jays staff that has been depleted by injuries to key starters — including Dylan Cease, Max Scherzer, Shane Bieber and the season-ending absence of Berríos — and is intended to add depth and low-cost rotation/bullpen flexibility. Reports from AP, Sportsnet and TSN confirm the transaction as a cash-only deal with no players exchanged.

The U.S. Women’s Open opened Thursday at Riviera Country Club in Pacific Palisades, Los Angeles, the first time a USGA women’s championship has been staged at the 100‑year‑old venue. The 81st Open (June 4‑7) features a 156‑player field competing for a $12 million purse. World No. 1 Nelly Korda arrives as the favourite after reclaiming the top ranking and winning the Chevron Championship plus multiple LPGA events this season; she was runner‑up at last year’s Open. Defending champion Maja Stark seeks a repeat while managing the pressure that followed her 2025 victory. Other leading contenders include Jeeno Thitikul, Lydia Ko, Minjee Lee, Rose Zhang and two‑time Open champion Yuka Saso. Michelle Wie West is using a final exemption to return from retirement, and recent amateur champion Megha Ganne makes her pro debut. NBC/Peacock and USA Network carry coverage as Riviera — a regular PGA Tour site and future 2028 Olympic course — provides a high‑profile stage for women’s golf.

Cristopher Sánchez’s historic consecutive scoreless-innings run ended at 50 2/3 on June 3, 2026, when Jackson Merrill delivered a two-out RBI single in the seventh inning against the San Diego Padres at Citizens Bank Park. The left-hander worked seven innings, struck out eight and allowed one run and four hits with one walk, earning the decision as the Philadelphia Phillies beat the Padres 3-2. Sánchez’s streak — the longest ever by a left-hander, third-longest in the Live Ball Era (since 1920) behind Orel Hershiser (59) and Don Drysdale (58), and fifth-longest in major-league history including the pre-1920 era — began April 30 and included a franchise-record run that surpassed Grover Cleveland Alexander’s 41 scoreless innings. Sánchez, named National League Pitcher of the Month for May, entered the start with an MLB-low 1.47 ERA and moved to 7-2 after the win. The Phillies provided late support with J.T. Realmuto and Kyle Schwarber homering in the seventh; Jhoan Durán closed for the save.
