After watching Manny Pacquiao beat Keith Thurman on Saturday night, Floyd Mayweather Jr. took to social media on Tuesday to criticize his former opponent and Pacquiao clapped back.

"I find it real ironic how every time Pacquiao's name is brought up in the media, my name is always attached to it," Mayweather wrote in a post on Instagram. "This man's entire legacy and career has been built off its association with my name and it's about time you all stop using my brand for clout chasing and clickbait and let that man's name hold weight of its own."

Later on Tuesday, Pacquiao responded via Twitter.

.@FloydMayweather You come to my fight and then use my name in a post but I'm the one that is trying to stay relevant? ? if you want to be relevant again... #MayPac2

The 40-year-old Pacquiao (62-7-2, 39 KOs) beat Thurman in Las Vegas by split decision last weekend for the WBA welterweight title, renewing some calls for the 42-year-old Mayweather and Pacquiao to fight again.

Mayweather (50-0, 27 KOs) earned a unanimous decision win over Pacquiao in their first fight in May 2015. Pacquiao said he was hampered by a right shoulder injury while landing only 81 punches in that bout. The massively hyped fight delivered a record 4.6 million pay-per-view buys but was largely panned by most boxing fans.

Last September, Mayweather posted on Instagram that he's "coming back to fight Manny Pacquiao this year another 9 figure pay day on the way" but the bout never materialized.

WASHINGTON -- The Colorado Rockies bring out the best in Trea Turner.

On Tuesday, the Washington Nationals shortstop hit for the cycle during an 11-1 win over Colorado, marking the second time in Turner's career that he has accomplished the feat against the Rockies. According to Elias Sports Bureau research, he's the third player in MLB history to hit for the cycle multiple times against one team. Fred Clarke of the Pittsburgh Pirates had two cycles against the Cincinnati Reds (1901, 1903), and Christian Yelich did it twice last year, also against Cincinnati.

"It's almost more funny than anything that I got lucky enough to get all the right hits," Turner said. "I think it's kind of a lucky stat, just because you've got to put the ball in the right place at the right time. And I ended up doing that."

Turner led off the bottom of the first with a solo home run to center field against Colorado starter Peter Lambert. In the second inning, he hit a grounder off Lambert for a single. Facing Lambert again in the fifth, Turner hit a liner down the right-field line that glanced off Charlie Blackmon's glove and rolled into the corner for a triple. After grounding into an inning-ending double play against lefty reliever Sam Howard in the sixth, Turner came up in the seventh against righty Jairo Diaz and laced an RBI double to the gap in right-center field. In doing so, he became the 26th player in major league history to hit for multiple cycles in his career.

"I think any time you can put your name next to somebody else who has done something pretty substantial in this sport, I think it's a compliment," said Turner, a 26-year-old speedster who is one cycle shy of matching the four players tied for the record of three career cycles: John Reilly, Babe Herman, Bob Meusal and Adrian Beltre. "It's a hard game, and to get four hits in one game is hard to do. To have four different ones is, I think, a little bit of luck. But also, at the same time, a little humbling to be with those guys."

"It's a feat that doesn't happen often," Nats manager Davey Martinez said. "To be able to do it twice -- that, to me, is a testament to how good a player Trea really is."

Turner is the fourth player to complete the cycle this season, joining the Indians' Jake Bauers, the Angels' Shohei Ohtani and the Twins' Jorge Polanco. His previous cycle came on April 25, 2017, at Coors Field. In 18 career games against Colorado, he is batting .386 with 16 extra-base hits.

Of the 10 cycles the Rockies have allowed in their history, Turner's is the first to be accomplished away from Coors Field.

Earlier this season, Turner missed six weeks due to a fractured right index finger that he suffered as the result of a hit-by-pitch. In 60 games with Washington this season, he's hitting .286 with eight home runs and 20 stolen bases.

INDIANAPOLIS – Sixteen-time NOS Energy Drink USAC National Midget Series winner Kyle Larson will compete in the first three events of Pennsylvania Midget Week.

The fifth edition of the five-night Keystone State sojourn begins at Grandview Speedway in Bechtelsville, Pa., on July 30.

Larson will also compete in a midget on July 31 at Action Track USA in Kutztown, Pa., and on Aug. 1 at Path Valley Speedway Park in Spring Run, Pa.

The Elk Grove, Calif., native will compete for Keith Kunz/Curb-Agajanian Motorsports in the three races, the same team with whom he’s won all but one of his USAC midget races with.

His most recent USAC midget win came in June at The Dirt Oval at Route 66 in Joliet, Ill.

Larson’s car will have a different look to it compared to normal, as the team honors Ken Brenn, a five-time winning USAC National Midget car owner, five-time ARDC Midget champion car owner (1963-64, 68-69, 71), ARDC president, safety innovator, racing promoter and namesake of the Grandview opener, the Ken Brenn Midget Masters event.

A five-time Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series winner, Larson has made three NOS Energy Drink USAC National Midget starts this year, including his June win at Joliet.

The other two appearances came during Indiana Midget Week. He finished third in his first outing at Gas City I-69 Speedway, then proceeded to set a new one-lap track record the following night at Lincoln Park Speedway.

At Lincoln Park, Larson was contending for the win on the final lap when he flipped over the turn two cushion.

TORONTO -- The 3-year-old boy hit by a foul ball in Cleveland last weekend is showing no signs of serious injury, the Indians said Tuesday.

The boy, identified by the team as Henry, was hit by a line drive off the bat of Indians All-Star shortstop Francisco Lindor in the sixth inning of a 5-4 win over Kansas City on Sunday. An adult holding the child left the seating area immediately afterward.

The Indians said in a statement the boy was released from a hospital on Sunday evening.

"The Indians organization and Francisco Lindor are very thankful Henry is doing well," the team said Tuesday.

Protective netting at Progressive Field runs to the end of each dugout. Lindor's line drive landed several sections beyond the netting and was about 12 to 15 rows into the stands.

On Monday, the Chicago White Sox became the first team in the major leagues to extend protective netting from foul pole to foul pole for their game against the Miami Marlins.

The Washington Nationals were among other teams to announce this season that they planned to extend their netting. It was in place at Nationals Park on Monday when the game against Colorado was rained out.

Several fans, including a 2-year-old girl in Houston, have been injured by foul balls this season.

Commissioner Rob Manfred recently said extending protective netting down foul lines is a ballpark-to-ballpark decision because of differing configurations. Before the 2018 season, MLB introduced regulations mandating netting extend to the far end of each dugout.

WASHINGTON -- Nationals ace Max Scherzer is expected to return from the injured list Thursday.

"He felt good today," manager Davey Martinez said of Scherzer, who threw a bullpen session Monday prior to the opener of a four-game series between the Nationals and Rockies getting rained out. That contest has been rescheduled as part of a doubleheader on Wednesday, with the finale coming Thursday afternoon.

Assuming Scherzer doesn't suffer any setbacks between now and then, he would take the hill in the finale.

Scherzer has been dealing with an inflamed bursa sac below his right shoulder and has not pitched since July 6, when he tallied 11 strikeouts over seven scoreless innings against the Kansas City Royals. One week later, the Nats placed him on the injured list, retroactive to July 10.

On Tuesday, Martinez said the Nationals considered the calendar for the remainder of the regular-season schedule, as well as the postseason, before landing on Thursday as the likely return date for Scherzer.

"We actually sat down and looked at the schedule, and that's basically how we came up with Thursday," said the Nats' second-year skipper. "I went all the way 'til the wild-card game. I'm hoping that we're not the wild-card team. But we sat down and mapped everything out from that day."

Washington began the day 6.5 games behind the first-place Atlanta Braves in the National League East, and in possession of the top wild-card spot in the NL. If Scherzer is able to go on Thursday, he would then line up to start in all three of his team's remaining series against the Braves, as well as in Washington's lone remaining series against the third-place Phillies. He'd also be in position to take the mound in a potential NL wild-card game.

A three-time Cy Young winner, Scherzer has been one of the game's most durable hurlers, having made at least 30 starts in all 10 of his full seasons since debuting in 2008. Since signing a seven-year, $210 million contract with the Nationals prior to the 2015 season, the 34-year-old righty had made only one other trip to the injured list, in August of 2017.

This season, Scherzer is 9-5 with a 2.30 ERA. In 129.1 innings, he has recorded 181 strikeouts, most in the National League. In June, prior to hitting the shelf, he went 6-0 with a 1.00 ERA and was named the NL Pitcher of the Month.

British number three Dan Evans coasted into the second round of the Atlanta Open with a 6-1 6-1 win against Taiwanese qualifier Jason Jung.

The 29-year-old world number 55, who reached the third round at Wimbledon this month, needed only 57 minutes to beat the 30-year-old world number 138.

In the pair's first meeting, Evans, seeking his maiden ATP title, served out to win on his third match point.

He plays American Tennys Sandgren or Moldovan sixth seed Radu Albot next.
