Sports for 7/29

The Burlington Bees dropped a game to Midwest-League best Kane County last night in Geneva. The Bees only offense came from a seventh inning homer from Tim Arakawa. They play again tonight.

Former Burlington Bee Eric Hosmer hit a game-winning home run as Kansas City beat Cleveland 2-1. St. Louis Cardinals fell to the Cincinnati Reds 4-0. Chicago Cubs lost to the Rockies 7-2. Twins fell to the Pirates 8-7.

Patriots Quarterback Tom Brady’s appeal of his four game suspension for allegedly being aware that balls were deflated below regulation limits during the AFC Championship Game against the Indianapolis Colts has been denied by NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell. Brady will miss the first four games of the season after taking nearly every single snap last season.
