Scottie Scheffler and the rest of golf’s best players have gathered again at Augusta National for the Masters which begins this morning at 7:40 at Augusta.

Former major league relief pitcher Octavio Dotel was among the dead after a roof collapsed at a nightclub in his native Dominican Republic where he was attending a merengue concert.

Juan Soto hit a go-ahead double in the third inning and Kodai Senga combined with a standout bullpen for New York’s second shutout in four days, a 2-0 win over the Miami Marlins that extended the Mets’ winning streak to five.

Alex Ovechkin scored his record-breaking 895th career goal, but the New York Islanders beat the Washington Capitals 4-1.

Aaron Judge became the third-fastest New York Yankees player to reach 500 extra-base hits with a three-run homer in the first inning of a 9-7 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks, trailing only Joe DiMaggio and Lou Gehrig.

Pete Alonso launched a three-run homer that tied the score with two outs in the eighth inning and the New York Mets scored twice in the 11th to beat the Miami Marlins 6-5.

A federal judge has dismissed New York City Mayor Eric Adams’ corruption case. Judge Dale E. Ho on Wednesday granted the Justice Department’s extraordinary request to set aside criminal charges so the mayor could aid President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown. But the judge denied prosecutors the ability to potentially bring the criminal case back after the mayoral election. The order to dismiss the case “with prejudice” spares Adams from having to govern in a way that pleases Trump or potentially risk having the charges revived. The Justice Department’s push to end the case caused a rift between its leadership in Washington and prosecutors in New York. Adams had pleaded not guilty to bribery and other charges.

Alex Ovechkin moved four goals away from breaking Wayne Gretzky’s NHL record 894 after scoring the 891st of his career in the Washington Capitals 4-3 victory against the Bruins in Boston on Tuesday night.

Three No. 1 seeds -- UCLA, South Carolina and Texas -- and No. 2 seed UConn are in the Women’s Final Four.
