On Saturday, the NFL Network reported that tight end Stephen Carlson and the Chicago Bears have agreed to a one-year contract. Carlson, a graduate of Jamestown High School, broke into the NFL in 2019 and played two seasons with the Cleveland Browns, recording six receptions for 62 yards and a touchdown. File photo

Harrison Bader, who was scheduled to have the day off, entered the game as a pinch-hitter and went 2-for-2. His second hit was a two-out, two-run single to cap a three-run Yankee rally and give his team a 3-2 victory. Photo by USA Today
