BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) \u2014 Field hospitals set up in Bismarck and Fargo in preparation for a spike in coronavirus cases have been disassembled. Hundreds of cots and medical supplies were put in place at the University of Mary Fieldhouse in Bismarck and at the Fargodome early this spring in case regular hospitals weren\u2019t able to handle all the coronavirus cases. About two dozen people are currently hospitalized with COVID-19 in North Dakota, well below the state\u2019s hospital bed capacity. The Bismarck Tribune reports state officials say the cots are in storage and could be reassembled in as little as 48 hours if needed.<\/p>\n

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) \u2014 Sister Thomas Welder, the longtime former president of the University of Mary and winner of North Dakota\u2019s most prestigious award, has died. She was 80. The school announced Monday that Welder died at her monastery home south of Bismarck. She had recently been diagnosed with kidney cancer. Welder began her career as a music teacher at the university in 1963, when it was named Mary College. She became the school\u2019s fifth president in 1978 and held that position for 31 years. During her tenure, the school earned university status, nearly tripled its enrollment and moved up from NAIA to NCAA Division II athletics. North Dakota Gov. John Hoeven bestowed on her the Theodore Roosevelt Rough Rider Award in 2004.<\/p>\n

BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) \u2014 State officials say North Dakota has collected about $43 million in online sales taxes since they were authorized two years ago. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled in June 2018 that states can force online shoppers to pay sales taxes. North Dakota began collecting from remote sellers that fall. State Tax Commissioner Ryan Rauschenberger says the court\u2019s decision leveled the playing field for local sellers who were no longer at a competitive disadvantage with their online competitors. The Bismarck Tribune reports North Dakota cities and counties that impose local sales taxes have received nearly $15 million through the first half of this year.<\/p>\n

TALLADEGA, Ala. (AP) \u2014 Ryan Blaney held onto the lead after a restart with two laps to go, earning his second straight win at Talladega Superspeedway on a day that began with NASCAR drivers throwing their support behind Bubba Wallace. Blaney nipped Ricky Stenhouse Jr. at the finish line for his fourth win and first since Talladega in October, albeit this time before a mostly empty venue. It was a race marked by support for Wallace instead of another Big One at Talladega, though there was mayhem behind Blaney on the final lap and he also pushed Erik Jones into the wall near the finish.<\/p>\n
MLB-CONTRACT<\/p>\n
Player\u2019s association rejects MLB schedule<\/p>\n
NEW YORK (AP) \u2014 Major League Baseball plans to unilaterally issue a 60-game schedule for its shortest season since 1878 after the players\u2019 association rejected a negotiated deal of the same length, putting the sport on track for a combative and possibly unhappy return to the field amid the coronavirus pandemic.<\/p>\n
Six days after baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred and union head Tony Clark negotiated to expand the playoffs from 10 teams to 16, widen use of the designated hitter to National League games and introduce an experiment to start extra innings with a runner on second base, the deal was rejected by the union.<\/p>\n
MLB asked the union to respond by 5 p.m. EDT today as to whether players can report to training by July 1 and whether the players\u2019 association will agree on the operating manual of health and safety protocols. The schedule would be the shortest since the National League\u2019s third season.<\/p>\n
Given the need for three days of virus testing and 21 days of workouts, opening day would likely be during the final week of July. MLB already has started to investigate charter flights that could bring players back from Latin America, another person told the AP, also on condition of anonymity because no announcements were made.<\/p>\n
MLB-CHICAGO-CROCHET<\/p>\n
White Sox announce deal with 1st-round draft pick Crochet<\/p>\n
CHICAGO (AP) \u2014 The Chicago White Sox have signed first-round draft pick Garrett Crochet to a minor league contract that includes a signing bonus worth $4,547,500. Crochet went No. 11 overall in the June 10 amateur draft.<\/p>\n
The 20-year-old left-hander made one start before his junior season at Tennessee was canceled because of the COVID-19 pandemic, striking out six in 3 2\/3 scoreless innings.<\/p>\n
The 6-foot-6 Crochet is known for his blazing fastball. He went 5-3 with a 4.02 ERA in 18 appearances with the Volunteers during his sophomore season, averaging 11.2 strikeouts per nine innings.<\/p>\n
In other MLB draft news:<\/p>\n
\u2014 The Chicago Cubs have signed first-round draft pick Ed Howard to a minor league contract that includes a $3,745,500 bonus. The 18-year-old shortstop was a prep star at Mount Carmel High School on Chicago\u2019s South Side. He also started for the 2014 Jackie Robinson West Little League team that advanced to the finals of the Little League World Series. Howard had committed to the University of Oklahoma. He received a signing bonus equal to his assigned slot value.<\/p>\n
NASCAR-TALLADEGA-NOOSE<\/p>\n
Blaney wins, race starts with show of solidarity<\/p>\n
TALLADEGA, Ala. (AP) \u2014Ricky Stenhouse Jr. edged Ryan Blaney to win the second stage of a rain-delayed race at Talladega Superspeedway in Alabama. The day began with a show of support for driver Bubba Wallace. Fellow drivers lined up and pushed his car to the front of pit road in a show of solidarity. The entire 40-driver field and all their crew members followed. After the car came to a stop, Wallace climbed out, sat on the window ledge and sobbed. Richard Petty, his Hall of Fame team owner, gently placed a hand on Wallace\u2019s shoulder.<\/p>\n
The move came one day after a crew member found a noose in his garage stall. Wallace is the only fulltime Black driver in the top NASCAR series. Two weeks ago, he successfully pushed NASCAR to ban the Confederate flag at its facilities.<\/p>\n
The move came one day after a crew member found a noose in his garage stall. Wallace is the only fulltime Black driver in the top NASCAR series. Two weeks ago, he successfully pushed NASCAR to ban the Confederate flag at its facilities.<\/p>\n
The FBI is investigating the discovery of a noose found in the Talladega Superspeedway garage stall of Bubba Wallace. President Steve Phelps says security has been stepped up for Wallace since the noose was found on Sunday.<\/p>\n
\u2014 A makeshift noose was found hanging from a tree at the Sonoma Raceway in California and officials say they’re investigating the incident. Raceway President Steve Page says \u201cpiece of twine tied in what appeared to be a noose\u201d was found hanging from a tree Saturday behind a former administrative office. Page says the incident is under investigation by the Sonoma County Sheriff\u2019s Department. Sonoma Raceway was closed over the weekend due the coronavirus pandemic.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Police are looking into an incident in which a plane pulled a banner with the words \u201cWhite Lives Matter Burnley\u201d on it over Manchester City\u2019s Etihad Stadium at the start of a Premier League match between the teams. The aircraft came into view moments after players and coaches from both clubs took a knee at kickoff in support of the Black Lives Matter movement. It circled the stadium for several minutes. Police in Lancashire say they will be \u201cfully investigating\u201d the incident. Burnley has vowed to \u201cwork fully with the authorities to identify those responsible and issue lifetime bans.\u201d<\/p>\n
NBA-RAPTERS ARRIVE IN FLORIDA<\/p>\n
Raptors to bring preps for restart of NBA season<\/p>\n
MIAMI (AP) \u2014 The Toronto Raptors arrived in southwest Florida on Monday, set to begin their preparations for next month\u2019s restart of the NBA season. If the Raptors return to the NBA Finals, they could be in Florida for nearly four full months.<\/p>\n
The reigning NBA champions will start training for the season restart later this week at Florida Gulf Coast University in Fort Myers, making that school their home base until they head north to the Disney complex near Orlando, Florida, around July 7.<\/p>\n
What awaits the Raptors is a different setup than what will be the case for the other 21 NBA teams that will be participating in the restart at Disney. Other teams will be working out at their home facilities, but as the NBA\u2019s lone team from outside the U.S., the Raptors would have had some logistical difficulties in having players gather in Toronto to prepare for the trip to Disney.<\/p>\n
Elsewhere in the NBA:<\/p>\n
\u2014 The Dallas Mavericks will be without veteran guard Courtney Lee when organized workouts resume. The Mavericks say Lee injured his left calf during the NBA hiatus and won\u2019t be available when workouts are scheduled to start up again July 1. Lee had become a part-time starter after Jalen Brunson injured his right shoulder. After playing in only 10 of the first 50 games for the Mavericks this season, Lee appeared in 14 of their last 17. That included March 11 against Denver in the final NBA game completed before the season was put on hold because of the coronavirus.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Washington Wizards forward Davis Bertans will skip the Florida-based resumption of the NBA season. He is the first known example of a healthy, eligible player sitting out. Bertans can become an unrestricted free agent this offseason and is expected to command a big contract as one of the league\u2019s top 3-point shooters. The Wizards are allowed to sign a replacement player for Bertans as early as Tuesday.<\/p>\n
\u2014 The Detroit Pistons introduced Troy Weaver as their new general manager. The former Oklahoma City Thunder executive joins a Detroit team that was interested in him previously \u2014 and he takes over a GM spot that was vacant for a couple years. Pistons owner Tom Gores said the team tried to talk to Weaver a couple years ago, but the Thunder weren\u2019t ready to let him go. Detroit has not had an official GM since shaking up its front office in 2018. Ed Stefanski, a senior advisor to Gores, has been running the front office. Gores says Weaver will work with Stefanski and coach Dwane Casey.<\/p>\n

Veteran NHL forward Chris Thorburn announces retirement<\/p>\n
UNDATED (AP) \u2014 Veteran forward Chris Thorburn has announced his retirement after playing more than 800 NHL games since 2005. Thorburn spent his last time on the ice celebrating the St. Louis Blues winning the Stanley Cup last season. Despite playing just one game for the Blues in 2018-19, he was the fourth player handed the Cup. Thorburn played 801 regular-season games for the Buffalo Sabres, Pittsburgh Penguins, Atlanta Thrashers\/Winnipeg Jets and Blues. He skated in four playoff games with Winnipeg in 2015. The 37-year-old from Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario, finishes his NHL career with 53 goals, 81 assists and 968 penalty minutes.<\/p>\n
UNDATED (AP) \u2014 Cade Cunningham, one of the nation\u2019s top basketball recruits, has chosen to remain at Oklahoma State despite the program being banned from the 2021 postseason. Cunningham won the Naismith High School Trophy given to the nation\u2019s best player. The 6-foot-7 point guard was a key piece of Oklahoma State\u2019s highly ranked recruiting class. Many wondered what the one-and-done prospect would do. Cunningham announced in a video he posted to social media that he would stay.<\/p>\n
Earlier this month, an NCAA infractions committee panel handed down numerous penalties related to findings that former assistant coach Lamont Evans accepted up to $22,000 in bribes intended to help steer athletes to certain financial advisers. Oklahoma State is appealing.<\/p>\n
VIRUS OUTBREAK-SPORTS<\/p>\n
2 virus cases following Djokovic\u2019s charity event<\/p>\n
ZAGREB, Croatia (AP) \u2014 Another tennis player has tested positive for the coronavirus after taking part in an exhibition series organized by Novak Djokovic in Serbia and Croatia. Viktor Troicki says he and his pregnant wife have both been diagnosed with the virus.<\/p>\n
The former top-20 player from Serbia played against Djokovic in Belgrade during the first part of the two-leg tour. The top-ranked Djokovic was the face behind the series of exhibition events that started in the Serbian capital and then moved to Croatia last weekend. He left Croatia after the final was canceled and was tested in Belgrade. Those results are expected later today.<\/p>\n
Borna Coric, ranked 33rd in the world, and three-time Grand Slam semifinalist Grigor Dimitrov, said they also tested positive for COVID-19.<\/p>\n

\u2014 Ravens coach John Harbaugh is confident his team\u2019s training camp will begin as scheduled next month despite the coronavirus pandemic. Speaking on a video conference on Monday, Harbaugh said he expected the NFL would have a plan in place that would enable teams to start practicing in late July. Harbaugh said they\u2019ll just have to be very adaptable, and flexible and smart about what they\u2019re going to do and that testing was the main thing. The Ravens have replaced 13 scheduled on-field practice sessions with virtual classes so far this offseason.<\/p>\n
\u2014 When Brooks Koepka goes for a historic three-peat in the PGA Championship, there won\u2019t be anyone at Harding Park to cheer him on.

It\u2019s the first major of a golf calendar reconfigured because of the COVID-19 pandemic. The U.S. Open is scheduled for September and the Masters is in November. The British Open was canceled. No one has ever won the PGA Championship three straight times in stroke play.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Jonquel Jones, the star center for the Connecticut Sun, has decided not to play in the WNBA this season because of concerns about the coronavirus pandemic. Jones led the Sun to the WNBA Finals last year, averaging almost 18 points and more than 10 rebounds in the postseason. She becomes the first WNBA player to cite the virus in opting out of the upcoming season. Renee Montgomery, the former UConn guard now with the Atlanta Dream, had previously announced she will skip the season to focus on social justice issues.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Atlanta United president Darren Eales says the team remains on pace to begin full team training on Tuesday, assuming there are no more positive tests for COVID-19. Eales says the two players who have tested positive are in isolation but are expected to be with the team for the MLS Is Back Tournament in July at Walt Disney World. He says the tests of asymptomatic players are evidence the protocols set up by MLS \u201care working.\u201d The players who tested positive last week have not been identified.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Iowa\u2019s athletic department says nine athletes, coaches or staff have tested positive for COVID-19 in the last week. That accounts for nearly one-quarter of the 40 tests conducted in that time frame. Since the beginning of the return-to-campus protocol May 29, there have been 12 positives among 386 tests.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Wisconsin officials say that two Badgers\u2019 athletes have tested positive for COVID-19 and are self-isolating. Those positive results came from the 117 athletes who participated in the school\u2019s initial campus screening.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Two Rutgers football players have tested positive for the new coronavirus. Coach Greg Schiano discussed the test results Monday during a conference call. It was his first media availability since the team was allowed to return to campus last week for voluntary workouts.<\/p>\n

In world and national news…<\/p>\n
WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 Dr. Anthony Fauci is returning to Capitol Hill at a fraught moment for the nation\u2019s pandemic response. Coronavirus cases are rising in about half the states and political polarization is competing for attention with public health recommendations. The government\u2019s top infectious disease expert is testifying Tuesday before a powerful House panel, along with the heads of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Food and Drug Administration. The nation is emerging from weeks of stay-at-home orders and business shutdowns. But that’s being done in an uneven way, with some states far less cautious than others.<\/p>\n

ATLANTA (AP) \u2014 Rayshard Brooks is to be remembered at the Atlanta church where the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. once preached. The private funeral for the man who was fatally shot by a police officer is to be held Tuesday at Ebenezer Baptist Church. The Rev. Raphael Warnock is to deliver the eulogy. Officer Garrett Rolfe fatally shot Brooks in the back after Brooks fired a Taser in his direction while running away after a struggle with officers outside a Wendy\u2019s restaurant on June 12. Rolfe is white. Brooks was Black. King\u2019s daughter, the Rev. Bernice King, also plans to deliver remarks at Brooks\u2019 funeral.<\/p>\n

WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 Protesters tried to pull down a statue of President Andrew Jackson near the White House Monday night before being dispersed by police. WUSA-TV in Washington reports that police used pepper spray to move protesters out of Lafayette Square, where the Jackson statue is located. Videos posted on social media show that the protesters climbed on the statue and tied ropes around it, then tried to pull it off its pedestal. The 19th century president\u2019s ruthless treatment of Native Americans has made his statue a target of demonstrators protesting the United States\u2019 legacy of racial injustice. The Jackson statue remains on its pedestal.<\/p>\n

BALTIMORE (AP) \u2014 A Baltimore restaurant issued an apology after video showed a Black woman and her son being denied service because of the boy\u2019s clothes despite a white child being served while dressed a similar way. On Monday, Ouzo Bay owners Atlas Restaurant Group said they were disturbed by the incident and placed the manager seen in the video on indefinite leave. The video posted by Marcia Grant shows her son being denied service because he was wearing athletic shorts and sneakers. A white boy who had been served was wearing a similar outfit. The unidentified manager told Grant the shorts weren’t the same. Atlas says it is immediately changing its dress policy. Grant didn\u2019t immediately respond to comment requests.<\/p>\n

TOKYO (AP) \u2014 Global shares have advanced, tracking gains in Asia and on Wall Street overnight. Benchmarks rose in Paris, London and Tokyo on Tuesday and U.S. futures also pushed higher. Investors are weighing risks that rising numbers of cases could pose for a global recovery as the number of coronavirus infections surpasses 9 million worldwide. Asian markets initially opened lower, spooked by reported comments by White House trade adviser Peter Navarro suggesting the U.S. trade deal with China was in trouble. But President Donald Trump said the agreement was still on. Comments by either side suggesting progress or problems with the trade agreement have added to the uncertainties prevailing in the midst of the pandemic.<\/p>\n
