Baseball United announced that the league's co-owner and Seattle Mariners Hall of Famer Felix Hernandez will be the honorary general manager for its Dubai franchise, the Dubai Wolves.
Officially, the Peter Gerhardsson era started when he first took charge of the Sweden women's national team in autumn 2017, marking his first match with a win over Croatia to get the Blågult's qualification bid for the 2019 Women's World Cup off to the perfect start. Yet, inheriting a team that was entrenched in the typical Swedish 4-4-2 and playing a style the coach likened to an old-fashioned English system, it would take almost four years for the squad to finally begin looking like the real (attacking) deal under the 63-year-old.
Loose forward Kazuki Himeno was on Tuesday named Japan captain for the Rugby World Cup as the Brave Blossoms seek to replicate their impressive performances on home soil four years ago.

Canada's national women's baseball team ended its 2023 Women's Baseball World Cup Group A qualifiers run on a high note Sunday night.
The penultimate stage of a major tournament is familiar territory for Sweden and although they have failed to clear that hurdle several times recently, that strong pedigree could serve them well against Spain in their Women's World Cup semi-final. The two teams will vie for a spot in the final at Auckland's Eden Park on Tuesday, setting up a showdown in Sydney with either co-hosts Australia or European champions England for the chance to be crowned a first-time World Cup winner. "It's going to be a high-pressure Spain and high-pressure Sweden," Sweden coach Peter Gerhardsson said. "For me, it's lovely football." Sweden are the highest-ranked nation remaining - at world number three - and are appearing at their fifth World Cup semi-final. They have played in all nine editions but only reached the final once, when they lost to Germany in 2003. The Scandinavians have not won a major trophy since the inaugural 1984 Euros, when only four teams took part. They also reached the semi-finals of last year's Euros and the 2019 World Cup, and have been runners-up at the last two Olympics. Sweden won all three group games this tournament and dispatched two World Cup winners - the United States and Japan - in the knockouts. They will be confident of continuing that momentum against Spain, who have never reached the last four of the showpiece tournament. "We have the benefit of experience," captain Kosovare Asllani said. "We have gone far in the last few tournaments but I am particularly pleased with the way we have done it this time. "We have won our matches in different ways and it shows the strength of this team."
