PREAKNESS

BALTIMORE (AP) -- Oxbow, a 15-to-1 longshot under 50-year-old jockey Gary Stevens, has captured the 138th Preakness Stakes in a huge upset, in the second leg of horse racing's Triple Crown at Pimlico Race Course. It's the sixth Preakness champion for Hall of Fame trainer D. Wayne Lukas.

"I get paid to spoil dreams," Lukas said after the race.

Stevens, a Hall of Famer who came out of a seven-year retirement this year, has now ridden winners in three Preakness Stakes. Stevens gunned Oxbow out of the gate early and was never seriously challenged. He hit the wire in a minute, 57.54 seconds to win by three lengths. Itsmyluckday ran second and Mylute was third.

Orb, the 3-year-old winner of the Kentucky Derby, never fired. Orb got boxed in along the backstretch and finished fourth at 3-to-5 odds.

There has not been a Triple Crown winner since Affirmed in 1978.

MLB-SCHEDULE

UNDATED (AP) -- The Yankees continued their domination of the Blue Jays with a 7-2 win. Robinson Cano (kan-OH') banged out a pair of home runs in the game as the Yankees beat the Jays for the ninth straight time at Yankee Stadium. In nine games played this season between the two teams, the Yankees have now won eight times. The American League Eastern rivals square off again tomorrow with CC Sabathia (suh-BATH'-ee-uh) of the Yankees facing R.A. Dickey.

-- For the second straight day Cleveland walked off with a walk-off win. This time the Indians won on a fielders choice by Mark Reynolds in the bottom of the ninth, beating Seattle 5-4. On Friday night Jason Kipnis hit a three-run home run in the bottom of the tenth for a win. This time it was Kipnis scoring the game winning run from third. The Indians have won 16 of their last 20 games.

-- The Cubs are all of a sudden a hot team. They beat the Mets 8-2 and have won five of seven. Winning pitcher Scott Feldman pitched shutout ball into the seventh inning and drove in two runs with a two-out double to key the win. Feldman has won four straight decisions.

Coming up tonight, Jordan Zimmerman of the Nationals is looking to become baseball's first eight-game winner. He and the Nats are in San Diego to face the Padres and left-hander Eric Stults. Zimmerman starts the day with a record of 7-1 with an earned run average of just 1.69.

Also tonight Lance Lynn of the Cardinals is looking for his seventh win against just one loss. The cards are home to Milwaukee.

NBA PLAYOFFS

UNDATED (AP) -- New York forced a sixth game in its best-of-seven NBA Eastern Conference semifinal with Indiana with an 85-75 win Thursday night. That sixth game will be played tonight in Indianapolis as the Pacers look to close the series out. Part of Indiana's problems in that Game 5 loss was the fact they turned the ball over 19 times.

The series winner will advance to the conference final against defending league champion Miami. The first game in that series will be Wednesday in Miami.

NHL PLAYOFFS

UNDATED (AP) -- The Detroit-Chicago NHL Western Conference semifinal is now tied at 1-1 as the Red Wings beat the Blackhawks in game 2, 4-1. Patrick Kane gave Chicago a 1-0 first period lead before Damien Brunner and Brendan Smith scored in the second period. The Red Wings now have a chance to take the lead when this series between Original Six rivals shifts to Detroit for Game 3 on Monday.

Coming up tonight in San Jose, defending league champion Los Angeles is out to take 3-0 lead over the Sharks. The Kings won the first game 2-0 and the second outing 4-3.

Game 4 will be played in San Jose Tuesday night.

Just hours before the game the NHL fined the Sharks $100,000 for general manager Doug Wilson's public comments about forward Raffi Torres' suspension. The NHL said the fine was issued for violation of rules prohibiting formal team statements to the media during the 48-hour period following a disciplinary decision. The rule calls for an automatic $25,000 fine, and the Sharks were docked an additional $75,000 under an article in the league's constitution because of the "inappropriate nature of the comments."

Torres was suspended for the rest of San Jose's second-round playoff series against Los Angeles on Thursday for an illegal check to the head of Kings forward Jarret Stoll during Game 1.

The Ottawa Senators have gotten some good news, the return of Jason Spezza (SPET'-suh). He hasn't played since Jan. 27 because of back surgery for a herniated disc. The Senators need him back on the ice as they trail Pittsburgh 2-0 in their Eastern Conference playoff series. He's slated to be in the lineup for Sunday's game.
