On Friday, the Bulldogs managed only one hit and lost to Deposit/Hancock 3-0 in the Class D semifinals at Binghamton's NYSEG Stadium. Photo by Jennifer Rizzo

As John Sterling would say, Gardner planted it just over the right field fence at Citi Field to give the Yanks a 3-1 lead. They would go on to win 4-1. Photo by Newsday
Bottom: It seemed like a foregone conclusion to many NBA fans before the series began. On Friday in Cleveland, it became a formality, as the Golden State Warriors beat the Cavaliers 108-85 to sweep the Cavs and win their third NBA title in four years. Stephen Curry (center) led all scorers with 37 points in the win. Kevin Durant (far right) had a triple-double with 20 points, 12 rebounds, and 10 assists was named Finals MVP. Photo by USA Today
