Former MLB outfielder Garret Anderson died of “acute necrotizing pancreatitis,” local reports citing the Orange County Sheriff-Coroner’s Office said.

The Los Angeles Angels announced the former star outfielder died late last week at the age of 53.

“Acute necrotizing pancreatitis” is a condition in which part of the pancreas dies, according to Cedars-Sinai. The California Post reported his death was ruled natural.

A three-time All-Star, Anderson is in the conversation for the greatest Angel in franchise history, nearing the top of the leaderboard in many stats.

“Garret will forever hold a special place in the hearts of Angels fans for his professionalism, class, and loyalty throughout his career and beyond,” the team said in a social media post. “We extend our heartfelt condolences to the entire Anderson family.”

A call was made for “medical aid” to Anderson’s home in the early afternoon of April 16 after Anderson suffered a medical emergency. The Angels announced his death the next day.

Anderson made his MLB debut with the California Angels in 1994 before becoming a true threat in the early 2000s. From 2002 to 2005, Anderson was named to all three of his All-Star Games, leading the majors with 56 doubles in 2002 and the American League in that same category with 49 the following season.

He is the franchise leader in hits, RBIs, doubles, and games played. His .296 average with the team is also the third-highest behind Vladimir Guerrero and Rod Carew, and he is second in runs with 1,024, behind only Mike Trout.

Perhaps the biggest hit of his career was his three-run double in Game 7 of that World Series, which made the score 4-1 Angels in the bottom of the third inning. That score would be the final.

The England and Wales Cricket Board has appointed former national selector Ed Smith to its board as a non-executive director.

Smith, who played for Middlesex and Kent and earned three Test caps, will join the ECB on 1 October when his one-year term as MCC President ends.

He served as England men’s selector from 2018 to 2021, during which they won the World Cup on home soil in 2019.

The ECB said that Smith’s role “will provide scrutiny and challenge, looking at the long-term strategy and governance of the whole game, including performance cricket”.

Smith’s appointment comes after England’s miserable Ashes tour, where their preparation, attitude and professionalism came under intense scrutiny after the 4-1 thrashing.

He will replace replace Baroness Zahida Manzoor, who has completed her three-year term.

England’s international summer begins with the women’s white-ball series against New Zealand on 10 May before the men face the same opponents in the first Test on 4 June.

Over the last few years, the Boston Celtics have lived and died by the 3-pointer, especially in the playoffs.

More often than not, it works. The Celtics had the fourth-best record in basketball this season, and their success from beyond the arc was a big reason why. They ranked third in 3-pointers made, fourth in 3-pointers attempted and eighth in 3-point percentage.

The issue is that when the threes aren’t falling, Boston has no idea how to win.

That’s what happened during Game 2 against the Philadelphia 76ers on Tuesday. The Celtics went up 13 points in the first quarter and should have rolled to an easy victory. Instead, they went cold from three and ended up losing by 14.

Chelsea have sacked head coach Liam Rosenior after less than four months in charge and on the back of losing five consecutive Premier League matches without scoring for the first time since 1912.

Rosenior arrived at Stamford Bridge in January, signing a five-and-a-half-year deal, but has won just 11 of his 23 games across all competitions.

After Tuesday’s 3-0 defeat at Brighton, Rosenior said the performance was “indefensible” and “unacceptable” as he faced angry chants from the travelling supporters.

They subsequently slipped to seventh in the Premier League standings in a further blow to their hopes of qualifying for next season’s Champions League.

“Liam has always conducted himself with the highest integrity and professionalism following his appointment midway through the season,” Chelsea said.

“This has not been a decision the club has taken lightly, however recent results and performances have fallen below the necessary standards with still so much more to play for this season.”

Day four of the 2026 Stanley Cup Playoffs certainly did not disappoint, with all four games coming down to the wire, and two requiring overtime. In the end, three teams found a way to even up their respective first-round series at 1-1 with clutch Game 2 victories, while the Presidents’ Trophy winners grabbed a 2-0 stranglehold.
