Here is the latest Mid-America sports news from The Associated Press

CINCINNATI (AP) — Jose Martinez drove in six runs and Yadier Molina homered in his return from a one-game suspension, powering the St. Louis Cardinals to a 13-4 victory. The loss left the Cincinnati Reds with their worst start since 1955, when they also opened 2-10. The Cardinals homered a season-high four times while piling up a season high in runs. The Reds have the worst mark in the majors at 2-10.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Shohei Ohtani hit a bases-loaded triple in a five-run seventh inning to help the streaking Los Angeles Angels beat the Kansas City Royals 7-1 for their fifth straight victory. Mike Trout homered for the Angels, and Ian Kinsler went deep on his first swing in his return to the lineup. Nick Tropeano pitched shutout ball into the seventh for his first major league win since 2016.

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Nebraska quarterback Patrick O’Brien plans to transfer. Former coach Mike Riley recruited O’Brien to play in a pro-style offense. New coach Scott Frost has brought his spread-option offense with him from Central Florida. O’Brien played in three games as backup to Tanner Lee last season.

LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) — University of Kansas officials say construction of a new multimillion-dollar indoor practice facility for football team will start soon. The university is planning a $26 million indoor practice area as part of a $300 million renovation project for Memorial Stadium. The project is funded entirely by private donations.

BELLEVUE, Neb. (AP) — The golf coach at Bellevue University in Nebraska recruited 61-year-old Don Byers to join the team after playing a round with him last summer. Byers is the oldest athlete in the NAIA since Alan Moore kicked an extra point for Faulkner University of Alabama in 2011, when he was 61. Byers’ first task was to lose 45 pounds so he could fit into his team-issued golf pants. His goal this spring is to make the starting lineup as one of Bellevue’s top five players.

Here is the latest Mid-America sports news from The Associated Press

ST. LOUIS (AP) — Matt Albers got his first save for Milwaukee, retiring Kolten Wong and Dexter Fowler to strand a pair of runners, and the Brewers beat the St. Louis Cardinals 3-2. Milwaukee had a two-run lead when Tommy Pham homered off Josh Hader leading off the bottom of the ninth, a play originally ruled a double but changed on a video review. Albers relieved and allowed singles to Marcell Ozuna and Jose Martinez, then retired Wong on a foulout and struck out Fowler.

ST. LOUIS (AP) — Cardinals catcher Yadier Molina dropped his appeal of his one-game suspension stemming from an altercation with Arizona Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo and sat out Wednesday’s game against Milwaukee. Molina was penalized for making contact with plate umpire Tim Timmons during Sunday’s dispute. Molina initially appealed the suspension after it was announced Tuesday and played in a 5-3, 11-inning win.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Kyle Seager hit a go-ahead homer with two outs in the eighth inning, and the Mariners held on to beat the Royals 4-2 on a warm, sun-splashed afternoon. James Paxton matched a career-best with 10 strikeouts over six sharp innings before turning it over to his bullpen. Nick Vincent earned the win for Seattle while Edwin Diaz handled the ninth for his fourth save.

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — Nebraska quarterbacks are excited about playing in Scott Frost’s spread-option offense. They are about to find out where they stack up as spring practice begins to wind down. Frost said he hopes no one decides to transfer but that opportunities are limited when it comes to playing time.

BELLEVUE, Neb. (AP) — The golf coach at Bellevue University in Nebraska recruited 61-year-old Don Byers to join the team after playing a round with him last summer. Byers is the oldest athlete in the NAIA since Alan Moore kicked an extra point for Faulkner University of Alabama in 2011, when he was 61. Byers’ first task was to lose 45 pounds so he could fit into his team-issued golf pants. His goal this spring is to make the starting lineup as one of Bellevue’s top five players.

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Creighton’s Ronnie Harrell Jr. is leaving the Bluejays to play his final season at the University of Denver as a graduate transfer. Harrell announced his decision on Twitter. Harrell is from Denver, and the Pioneers’ head coach is his cousin Rodney Billups. Harrell started 14 of 30 games as a junior and averaged seven points and better than six rebounds per game.
