The Philadelphia Phillies' losing streak hit four games Saturday after a classic case of miscommunication between three fielders led to the Cleveland Guardians' lone run in a 1-0 victory. Cleveland scored with two outs in the sixth, when José Ramírez’s short fly fell between second baseman Bryson Stott, center fielder Brandon Marsh and right fielder Nick Castellanos. Rosario capitalized on the mistake, racing around from first and spoiling a strong outing by Philadelphia starter Zach Wheeler. The right-hander pitched seven innings, allowing five hits while striking out eight in his first loss since May 22, against Arizona. Castellanos blamed himself and Marsh for the ball dropping, explaining, “It’s our responsibility to take charge and not assume the infielder is going to make the play. Stott said he thought he heard one of the outfielders call him off “at the very end,” but stressed, “It was unfortunate, just one of those weird plays that we haven’t had all season.” Guardians rookie Tanner Bibee struck out eight in seven dominant innings as the Phillies fell two games out of a wild-card spot.

Daniel Weinman won the World Series of Poker's main event world championship on Monday in Las Vegas, earning $12.1 million along the way. Playing in the tournament for a 16th year, Weinman was tops in a deep pool of 10,043 players vying for $93.39 million. His victory came after just 164 hands at the final table. "I was honestly on the fence about even coming back and playing this tournament," the 35-year-old Atlanta native told reporters afterward. Weinman's final table featured Jan-Peter Jachtmann, who landed in fourth place and took home $3 million, as well as Toby Lewis, who finished seventh and secured $1.42 million. According to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, the main event's entry pool far outpaced the previous record of 8,773 set in 2006. "I've always kind of felt that poker was kind of going in a dying direction, but to see the numbers at the World Series this year has been incredible," Weinman said. "And to win this main event, it doesn't feel real. I mean, [there's] so much luck in a poker tournament. I thought I played very well." Steven Jones finished second, securing $6.5 million. And Adam Walton settled for third and a $4 million prize.
