SAN FRANCISCO — The Darin Ruf trade is still paying dividends for the Giants.Saturday, the Giants signed Ruf to a minor league contract and will pay him only the league minimum salary after he was released by the Mets on April 2.“We love Darin,” said Giants manager Gabe Kapler. “Obviously, we have a lot of familiarity with him. With (injured outfielders) Mitch Haniger and Austin Slater needing a little time here and no timetable for them to actually go out on rehab assignments at this point, no specific date, it’s a good option for us to have some right-handed hitting depth in Triple-A.”Ruf was a key piece of the Giants’ attack against left-handed pitching from 2020 until last August, when they traded him to the Mets for J.D. Davis and pitching prospects Carson Seymour, Thomas Szapucki and Nick Zwack. Coincidentally, Seymour and Zwack were scheduled to be on the mound for Double-A Richmond in both games of a doubleheader on Saturday.Ruf struggled with the Mets, hitting just .1...Kurtenbach: A weird Warriors regular season comes down to one last game and a plethora of possibilities

Klay Thompson was feeling confident Friday night, even after a shaky Warriors victory in a must-win game over the Kings.“I don’t see a team who can beat us in a seven-game series when healthy,” Thompson said.The Warriors’ wing isn’t unjustified in holding that stance. The Warriors have never lost a Western Conference playoff series when the team’s star trio — Steph Curry, Draymond Green, and Thompson — are healthy.Heck, they’ve even won a few when they weren’t fully healthy.But that was a different time, and those were different teams.Those past Warriors squads never needed to win game No. 82 of the regular season to make the playoffs.These Warriors do.Related ArticlesGolden State Warriors | Warriors still pushing for playoff spot after 119-97 win in Sacramento Golden State Warriors | Light the beam?

CAIRO (AP) — Saudi Arabia on Saturday released over a dozen war prisoners to their rivals, the Houthi rebels in Yemen, a Houthi official said. The release came as Omani officials arrived in the Yemeni capital as part of international efforts to end Yemen’s years-long conflict.Abdul-Qader el-Murtaza, a Houthi official in charge of prisoner exchange talks in Yemen’s conflict, said 13 Houthi prisoners arrived Saturday in the capital, Sanaa.He said the prisoners were released in exchange for a Saudi prisoner the Houthis freed. He did not say when the rebels released the Saudi prisoner.Saturday’s release was part of a U.N.-brokered deal which Yemen’s warring parties stuck last month and includes the release of nearly 900 prisoners from both sides, el-Murtaza said.The U.N.-brokered deal is scheduled to be implemented this month.Yemen’s conflict began in 2014, when the Houthis seized Sanaa and much of the country’s north, ousting the internationally recognized government that fled to the s...Thompson scores go-ahead goal in Sabres 4-3 win over ‘Canes

BUFFALO, N.Y. (AP) — Tage Thompson scored the go-ahead goal 6:15 into the third period, Rasmus Dahlin had a goal, two assists and a key blocked shot and the Buffalo Sabres kept their slim playoff hopes alive with a 4-3 win over the Carolina Hurricanes on Saturday.Casey Mittelstadt scored twice and Buffalo improved to 6-1-1 in its past eight, with the win guaranteeing the Sabres remaining in contention through their game at the New York Rangers on Monday. A regulation loss, otherwise, would have put 10th-place Buffalo in position to be eliminated later in the day and extend its NHL-worst playoff drought for a 12th consecutive season.Buffalo (39-32-7) matched its most victories since finishing 39-32-11 in 2011-12.Buffalo rookie Devon Levi stopped 32 shots to improve to 3-1 in making his third start nine days.Sebastian Aho, with his Hurricanes-leading 35th goal, Seth Jarvis and Jesper Fast scored for Carolina.

The NBA has opened an investigation into Dallas’ decision to rest several players while the team still had a mathematical chance of making the play-in tournament.The league made the announcement Saturday, one day after the Mavericks held out Kyrie Irving for the full game, Luka Doncic for most of the game, and many other rotation players in what became a loss to the Chicago Bulls. The loss knocked Dallas out of postseason consideration.“The NBA commenced an investigation today into the facts and circumstances surrounding the Dallas Mavericks’ roster decisions and game conduct with respect to last night’s Chicago Bulls-Mavericks game, including the motivations behind those actions,” league spokesman Mike Bass said.Dallas was in an uphill spot for the last play-in berth in the West anyway. It needed to win Friday and Sunday, and hope that Oklahoma City would lose to Memphis on Sunday — just to get the No. 10 spot and still need two more road wins to make it to a Round 1 series a...Carballes Baena sets up unseeded Marrakech final vs Muller
