ROYALS TOP ORIOLES 1-0

BALTIMORE (AP) — Bobby Witt Jr. hit an RBI single in his playoff debut to back Cole Ragans’ six sharp innings and help the Kansas City Royals return from a nine-year postseason absence with a 1-0 victory over the Baltimore Orioles in Game 1 of their AL Wild Card Series.

Witt is a 24-year-old shortstop who led the majors with 211 hits and a .332 batting average this season.

He singled to left field Tuesday off a 95 mph, first-pitch cutter from 2021 NL Cy Young Award winner Corbin Burnes with two outs in the sixth.

Maikel Garcia came around to score after drawing a walk, stealing second and moving to third on a groundout.

Ragans left after 80 pitches because of cramping in his left calf.

Lucas Erceg earned the save.

MILLER SUSPENDED FOR 4 GAMES

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) — Buffalo Bills edge rusher Von Miller was suspended four games by the NFL on Tuesday for violating the league’s personal conduct policy.

The NFL did not reveal the reason for the suspension, which comes as Buffalo prepares to play at the Houston Texans on Sunday.

Miller is the NFL’s active leader in sacks.

He’s eligible to rejoin the Bills ahead of their home game against Miami on Nov. 3.

Miller was accused last November of assaulting his pregnant girlfriend at their home outside Dallas during the Bills’ bye week.

No charges have been filed, and Miller said in July he considered the case closed.

GONZAGA SET TO JOIN PAC-12

By The Associated Press

Basketball powerhouse Gonzaga will become the latest member of the rebuilt Pac-12 Conference.

The school announced the move on Tuesday.

Gonzaga will move from the West Coast Conference, where it has dominated for most of the last quarter century into a conference that was being rebuilt around football, but should be pretty stout on the basketball court.

Gonzaga will become the eighth Pac-12 member along with holdovers Washington State and Oregon State, and fellow newcomers Boise State, San Diego State, Fresno State, Utah State and Colorado State from the Mountain West.

Adding Gonzaga still leaves the Pac-12 in need of another football-playing member for College Football Playoff purposes.

Meanwhile, UTEP has agreed to join the Mountain West.
