Bates made the announcement Monday on social media. The 6-foot-10 wing averaged 19.2 points and 5.8 rebounds in 30 games at Eastern Michigan last season. He made 40.5% of his shots overall and 33% of 3-point attempts for the Eagles. After graduating from high school in three years and being regarded as a basketball prodigy, Bates went to Memphis for one season and averaged 9.7 points. In 2019 as a high school freshman, the slender and skilled guard led Ypsilanti Lincoln to a state title and was named Michigan’s Division 1 Player of the Year by The Associated Press. His sophomore season was cut short by the COVID-19 pandemic and he attended Ypsi Prep Academy as a junior, his final year of high school. Bates initially committed to playing for Tom Izzo at Michigan State. He later de-committed and signed with Memphis and coach Penny Hardaway.

MLB – Major League Baseball Yesterday Baltimore Orioles 2, Detroit Tigers 1 Tampa Bay Rays 4, Chicago White Sox 1 Los Angeles Dodgers 7, Chicago Cubs 3 Orioles 2, Tigers 1 – F/10 – Orioles beat Tigers 2-1 in 10, run winning streak to 6 Adam Frazier dashed home on Mason Englert’s wild pitch in the bottom of the 10th inning to give the Baltimore Orioles their sixth straight victory, 2-1 over the Detroit Tigers. The Orioles won for the 10th time in 12 games, this time on a day when Detroit’s Eduardo Rodriguez retired the first 20 Baltimore hitters. The Tigers left 13 men on base, including three in the 10th after Orioles manager Brandon Hyde issued two intentional walks. Those allowed left-hander Keegan Akin (1-1) to face lefty hitters, and end the threat, and Englert was unable to do the same in the bottom half. Frazier pinch-ran as the automatic runner and moved to third on a sacrifice bunt. He scored when Englert’s first pitch to Jorge Mateo skipped away. Rays 4, White Sox 1 – Rays get 13th consecutive home win, beat White Sox 4-1 Zach Eflin pitched five effective innings in his return from injury and the Tampa Bay Rays hit two more home runs, beating the slumping Chicago White Sox 4-1 for their 13th consecutive home win to begin the season. Tampa Bay improved to 19-3 overall and tied the 2009 Los Angeles Dodgers for the second-longest home winning streak to start a season since 1901. The 1907 New York Giants opened with 15 straight wins at home. Luke Raley and Harold Ramirez went deep for the Rays, who have homered in each of their first 22 games — extending their major league record. Eflin allowed one run and three hits in a game that took only 2 hours, 2 minutes. Peter Fairbanks got his third save.

MLB – Major League Baseball Yesterday Baltimore Orioles 2, Detroit Tigers 1 Tampa Bay Rays 4, Chicago White Sox 1 Los Angeles Dodgers 7, Chicago Cubs 3 Orioles 2, Tigers 1 – F/10 – Orioles beat Tigers 2-1 in 10, run winning streak to 6 Adam Frazier dashed home on Mason Englert’s wild pitch in the bottom of the 10th inning to give the Baltimore Orioles their sixth straight victory, 2-1 over the Detroit Tigers. The Orioles won for the 10th time in 12 games, this time on a day when Detroit’s Eduardo Rodriguez retired the first 20 Baltimore hitters. The Tigers left 13 men on base, including three in the 10th after Orioles manager Brandon Hyde issued two intentional walks. Those allowed left-hander Keegan Akin (1-1) to face lefty hitters, and end the threat, and Englert was unable to do the same in the bottom half. Frazier pinch-ran as the automatic runner and moved to third on a sacrifice bunt. He scored when Englert’s first pitch to Jorge Mateo skipped away. Rays 4, White Sox 1 – Rays get 13th consecutive home win, beat White Sox 4-1 Zach Eflin pitched five effective innings in his return from injury and the Tampa Bay Rays hit two more home runs, beating the slumping Chicago White Sox 4-1 for their 13th consecutive home win to begin the season. Tampa Bay improved to 19-3 overall and tied the 2009 Los Angeles Dodgers for the second-longest home winning streak to start a season since 1901. The 1907 New York Giants opened with 15 straight wins at home. Luke Raley and Harold Ramirez went deep for the Rays, who have homered in each of their first 22 games — extending their major league record.

There will be a lot of sewer work in Benton Harbor in the coming years if all goes according to plan. At a meeting this past week, city commissioners approved a project planning document that will have the city seek around $20 million from the state Drinking Water Revolving Fund for sanitary sewer work. Elaine Venema of civil engineering firm Fleis and VandenBrink said work is needed throughout the city, not only on sewer lines, but on infrastructure like lift stations. “In 2017, 30% of the pipes, the wastewater gravity pipes, were over 100 years old, and another 30% were between 76 and 100 years old. So, that’s about 60% of the city’s wastewater infrastructure that’s probably beyond its useful life.” Venema said the city is on a good position to get loan forgiveness, or just to receive the funds in the form of a grant. The only way to know is to apply to the state. Mayor Marcus Muhammad said the need for the infrastructure work is critical and must be done. If all goes well, a project plan could come together this fall with construction starting in the fall of next year. It would take a couple of years to complete. Before anything is final, another approval would be needed from the city commission.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Max Muncy also homered for the banged-up Dodgers, who had dropped three of four. David Peralta and Miguel Vargas each had two hits. It was the first career grand slam and multihomer game for the 25-year-old Outman. The rookie outfielder also threw out a runner at the plate. Chicago had won a season-high four straight. Cody Bellinger homered against his former team for the second time this season, but Michael Fulmer struggled with his location in the ninth. Today L.A.

Hendriks announced Thursday on Instagram that he is cancer-free. Hendriks announced his diagnosis in January and completed his final round of chemotherapy two weeks ago. A three-time All-Star, Hendriks was third in the majors with 37 saves and made his third All-Star team last season. He led the American League with a career-high 38 saves in 2021, after leaving Oakland to sign a $54 million, three-year contract with the White Sox. MLB – Cubs place RHP Jameson Taillon on IL with groin injury The Chicago Cubs have placed right-hander Jameson Taillon on the 15-day injured list because of a left groin strain. Right-hander Javier Assad has been recalled from Triple-A Iowa. Assad is slated to start the opener of a four-game series against the Los Angeles Dodgers.

General manager Ryan Poles already made one huge splash when he traded the No. 1 overall selection to Carolina for receiver DJ Moore and moved down eight spots.
