TORONTO: The Los Angeles Dodgers, fueled by a three-run third inning and another dominant pitching performance from Yoshinobu Yamamoto, beat the Toronto Blue Jays 3-1 on Friday to force a decisive World Series game seven. The defending champion Dodgers had to dig deep to thwart the Blue Jays’ ninth-inning rally bid and knot Major League Baseball’s best-of-seven championship series at three games apiece. They kept their bid for the first title repeat in 25 years alive while the Blue Jays will be aiming to claim their first title in 32 years when they host game seven on Saturday. Dodgers pitcher Tyler Glasnow, scheduled to start game seven, stepped in with Blue Jays runners on second and third with no outs in the ninth. He induced a fly out from Ernie Clement before Andres Gimenez hit into a game-ending double play – Dodgers left fielder Enrique Hernandez fielding Gimenez’s line drive and firing the ball to second base, where Miguel Rojas caught Addison Barger for the final out. “That was crazy,” Mookie Betts said of the game-ending double play. “I thought it was a bloop hit and I saw Kike running to catch it and I turned to look and I saw he was halfway.

RIYADH: The WTA Finals are back in Riyadh for a second straight year, with the top eight women of the tour ready to do battle one last time this season.

They will go through a round-robin stage, with the top two in each group advancing to Friday’s semifinals. Aryna Sabalenka is the top seed and headlines the Stephanie Graf Group alongside defending champion Coco Gauff, Jessica Pegula, and Jasmine Paolini, while second-seeded Iga Swiatek is in the Serena Williams Group with Madison Keys, Elena Rybakina and Amanda Anismova. Seven of the eight players spoke to the press on Friday, with Paolini forced to skip her media duties citing illness.

PARIS: Paris St. Germain forward Desire Doue suffered a right thigh muscle lesion and will be out for several weeks, the French side said on Thursday. The 20-year-old left the pitch in the 62nd minute during the 1-1 draw in Lorient on Wednesday, after halting his run and screaming out in pain.
BELGRADE: Serbia appointed former Real Oviedo manager Veljko Paunovic as their new national team coach on Thursday, following Dragan Stojkovic’s resignation after a shock home defeat by Albania this month.
