Less time on Hall of Fame ballots — The Baseball Hall of Fame announced changes to its voting procedure on Saturday, including reducing the length of time a retired player can stay on the ballot to a maximum of 10 years. The current length is 15 years. In the new format, after 10 years the players would move to the Era Committee system for review in perpetuity. Players who already have passed the 10 years mark will be grandfathered in on the ballot, meaning Don Mattingly (15th year in 2015), Alan Trammell (14th) and Lee Smith (13th) will all be allowed to stay for 15 years.

The 17-year-old Superal won the par-5 36th hole with a birdie to pull even and ended the match with a par on the first extra hole — the par-5 14th on Forest Highlands’ Meadows Course in Flagstaff, Arizona — after Navarro drove into the water.

FOOTBALL

49ers RB out with torn ACL — San Francisco 49ers running back Kendall Hunter’s season is over before it began. The 49ers confirmed Saturday that Hunter tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee during Friday’s practice. Hunter began training camp as the No. 2 running back behind Frank Gore. Hunter’s knee buckled awkwardly as he tried to make a move during a non-contact drill. He was able to walk off the field on his own before an MRI confirmed the tear. Hunter’s injury leaves former Oregon Duck LaMichael James, rookie Carlos Hyde, rehabbing Marcus Lattimore and Jewel Hampton as the most likely candidates to fill the void behind Gore.
