Baltimore: Coby Mayo hit a three-run home run Monday, lifting the Orioles to a 3-2 win over the visiting New York Yankees in the opener of a three-game series. Mayo's blast came in the seventh inning after Ryan Weathers carried a no-hit bid into the frame, and Baltimore had only three hits in the victory. Sterling and Lockport logged high-school baseball and tennis victories Monday, including Sterling’s 4-1 tennis win and Lockport’s 5-2 baseball win; Sterling coach Mike Gottemoller recorded his 100th dual win. Mount Pleasant’s Courtney Poulich was named Horizon League Softball Player of the Year this season after totaling 24 home runs and 82 RBIs, and the Horizon League Tournament begins this week.
