Fastest, fastest, fastest, fastest – that was Maverick Viñales’ CV during preseason last year as he got on the Movistar Yamaha for the first time. And the Spaniard won the first two races, too, before then going on to finish the season in third overall. After a winter of keen development for Yamaha – including a private test at Sepang in November - will Viñales come out the blocks swinging once more? And if he does, what does that tell us about the season as a whole? Source link

Red Sox Notes: David Ortiz, David Price Enter All-Star Break With A Bang
BOSTON — David Ortiz always has had a flair for the dramatic, so it was only fitting that he’d do something special to cap off the first half of his magical 2016 campaign. The Red Sox designated hitter delivered the goods again Sunday, hitting a two-run, opposite-field home run off Tampa Bay Rays pitcher Jake Odorizzi to help lift Boston to a 4-0 win at Fenway Park.
