MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL

TAMPA, Fla. (AP) – Tampa Bay Rays owner Stuart Sternberg wants to make a historic neighborhood in Tampa the next home of the perennially low-drawing team, which wants to shift across the bay from St. Petersburg.

Sternberg said at a news conference that the Rays will focus their new ballpark search on the east side of the bay at a 14-acre site in Ybor City, just north of Ybor Channel.

It’s the first time the team has publicly stated its preference for Tampa over St. Petersburg, its home since the franchise started play in 1998.

Sternberg and baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred say Tropicana Field, the last fixed dome stadium in the major leagues Adrian Clayborn Color Rush Jersey , is inadequate. Tampa Bay drew a major league-low 1.25 million fans last year, including the team’s smallest crowd ever at the ballpark on the west side of the bay, 6,509 against Minnesota on Sept. 5.

Also Friday, a local businessman announced the formation of the Tampa Bay Rays 2020 organization and campaign to help gain support for the project from the public and business community.

The timeline of such a project is unclear. A new ballpark likely will cost more than $700 million.

COLLEGE BASKETBALL

COLUMBIA, Mo. (AP) – Missouri freshman Michael Porter Jr. is hopeful he will be cleared to return to practice from lower back surgery next week, providing a boost for a Tigers team aiming to reach the NCAA Tournament.

The 6-foot-10 Porter http://www.ravensauthorizedshops.com/authentic-lamar-jackson-jersey , the top prep prospect in the country last season, played in only two minutes of the Tigers’ season-opening win over Iowa State before having surgery in November.

Porter averaged 36.2 points and 13.6 rebounds per game as a senior in high school in Washington, and he was a McDonald’s All-American after signing with Missouri.

He was expected to miss the rest of this season after the procedure, called a microdisetomy, but he’s hoping to be cleared to return during a doctor’s visit next week.

”My rehab therapist things I’m good to go with practice except for the contact part,” Porter said. ”I’m hoping that the doctor clears me to do everything, contact included. That’s what I would love to hear http://www.vikingsauthorizedshops.com/authentic-brian-o_neill-jersey , but it’s not up to me. It’s up to me to work hard and to the doctor to tell me I’m ready to go.”

Porter said he has been watching closely how the Tigers play, and that he would need only a few practices to be ready to return.

AMES, Iowa (AP) – Iowa State quarterback Kyle Kempt has been granted a sixth season of eligibility by the NCAA.

The Cyclones announced the NCAA’s decision on Friday, saying the governing body granted Kempt an extension of eligibility after considering the totality of the circumstances surrounding his transfer from Oregon State and Hutchinson Community College in Kansas.

Kempt became an unlikely starter for the Cyclones midway through last season after Jacob Park left the team. Kempt started off his career with a 38-31 win at then-No. 3 Oklahoma and finished with a 66.3 percent completion rate, the best in school history.

Kempt was 161-of-243 passing for 1,787 yards and 15 touchdowns in just nine games.
