San Francisco Giants third baseman Matt Chapman was placed on the 10-day injured list Tuesday with a sprained right hand after a weekend injury against Atlanta.

Chapman hurt his hand in the eighth inning Sunday when he dived back to first base on a pickoff attempt.

The 32-year-old Chapman is batting .243 with 12 home runs and 30 RBIs in 65 games during his second season with the Giants, who signed him in September to a $151 million, six-year contract through 2030.

He hit a two-run homer in the bottom of the ninth inning of a 3-2 win over the Braves on Saturday.

Softball

WCWS breaks viewership records >> The Women’s College World Series has set viewership and attendance records.

ESPN said in a news release that the average of 1.3 million viewers across 15 games on its platforms was the most-watched World Series ever, surpassing the record set in 2021.

Game 3 of the championship series, Texas’ 10-4 win over Texas Tech for its first national title, was ESPN’s most watched NCAA softball game ever with 2.4 million viewers.

NFL

Vikings extend TE Oliver >> The Minnesota Vikings agreed to terms on a three-year contract extension with tight end Josh Oliver, enhancing their commitment to a key part of their running game.

Oliver had career highs last season with 258 receiving yards and three touchdowns while expanding his involvement in the passing attack along with his role as a run blocker.

Broncos sign RB Dobbins >> The Denver Broncos beefed up their offensive backfield, agreeing with free agent running back J.K. Dobbins on a one-year deal worth up to $5.25 million.

A 2020 second-round pick by Baltimore, Dobbins has an extensive injury history, including an ACL tear in 2021 and a torn Achilles tendon in 2023, but he’s been productive when healthy.

Minicamp updates >> Defensive lineman Trey Hendrickson was not at the opening day of the Cincinnati Bengals minicamp as he seeks a new contract.

Hendrickson is expected to be fined for his absence. Hendrickson was an All-Pro selection last season after he led the league with 17 1/2 sacks.

• Aaron Rodgers might be ready to take the practice field for the Pittsburgh Steelers. T.J. Watt is not.

The star outside linebacker skipped the start of mandatory minicamp on Tuesday. Watt likely is eyeing a new deal as he enters the final year of his current contract.

The seven-time Pro Bowler and 2021 NFL Defensive Player of the Year’s decision to skip minicamp is a change from Watt’s approach in 2021, when he did a “hold in” during both minicamp and training camp before agreeing to a contract on the eve of the regular season.

• Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence wore a protective sleeve on his throwing arm during the start of a three-day, mandatory minicamp because of “general soreness.”

Lawrence has missed eight games over the past two seasons, including seven in 2024.

NHL

Canadiens’ Hutson wins Rookie of the year >> Montreal Canadiens defenseman Lane Hutson won the 2024-25 Calder Trophy as the NHL’s rookie of the year.

Hutson led rookies in scoring with six goals and 60 assists in his inaugural NHL season as the Canadiens made a surprise return to the playoffs this season.

His 60 assists matched Larry Murphy (1980-81) for the most by a rookie defenseman, while his 66 points trailed only Murphy, Brian Leetch (1988-89) and Gary Suter (1985-86) for the most by a rookie blueliner.

Boxing

Alvarez, Crawford to fight for unified super middleweight title >> Boxing’s most-anticipated fight in years, Canelo Alvarez against Terence Crawford, will be in Las Vegas on Sept. 13 after much speculation that it would take place in Saudi Arabia.

The fight for the unified super middleweight championship is part of Alvarez’s reported $400 million, minimum four-fight deal with Riyadh Season. One of those fights can be in another location, and Las Vegas has become the boxing home for the Mexican champion.

Alvarez (63-2-2) unified the division by defeating William Scull by unanimous decision in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on May 3.
