Here is the latest Mid-America sports news from The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Chiefs had one of the most prolific offenses in NFL history last season. Now, with the addition of speedy rookie Mecole Hardman and two-time All-Pro running back LeSean McCoy, there is reason to believe they could be even better. The first big test comes Sunday when the Chiefs open the regular season at Jacksonville.
ST. LOUIS (AP) — Kevin Pillar had four hits, including a go-ahead, two-run homer in the eighth inning, and the San Francisco Giants rallied to cool off the St. Louis Cardinals 9-8. Brandon Crawford and Mike Yastrzemski also homered for San Francisco, which snapped a four-game losing streak. Paul Goldschmidt drove in four runs and Paul DeJong homered for St. Louis, which lost for just the fourth time in 18 games. St. Louis remained 2 1/2 games ahead of the Chicago Cubs in the NL Central.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Jorge Soler extended his team record with his 40th homer, Hunter Dozier and Alex Gordon had three hits each, and the Kansas City Royals beat the Detroit Tigers 5-4. The Royals are the last team in baseball history to have a player reach 40 home runs in a season. Prior to Tuesday, Mike Moustakas held the club record with 38 in 2017. Jakob Junis gave up four runs and seven hits over seven innings for Kansas City.
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Nick Foles will start the season on the injury report. The team listed Foles on its initial report with an abdominal oblique injury. But the Jaguars say he’s expected to play in the season opener against Kansas City. Foles had some soreness following training camp.
ST. LOUIS (AP) — The Missouri Supreme Court has ruled that a lawsuit filed over the Rams’ departure from St. Louis in 2016 will be heard in a St. Louis courtroom, a defeat for the NFL team’s owner who sought to send the case to arbitration. The court issued its ruling Tuesday in a lawsuit filed by St. Louis city and county and the St. Louis Regional Convention and Sports Complex Authority.
BOULDER, Colorado (AP) — Colorado tailback Alex Fontenot patiently waited for his chance to start. He made the most of it by erupting for three touchdowns and 125 yards against Colorado State. The stakes will be even higher this weekend as Fontenot and the Buffaloes host No. 25 Nebraska.

Here is the latest Mid-America sports news from The Associated Press
IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — An unknown walk-on player nicknamed “Shooter” is about to get his shot with the Iowa football team. Guard Kyler Schott is a sophomore who had zero NCAA scholarship offers coming out of his tiny eastern Iowa high school. He is now set to join the Hawkeyes’ starting lineup. Iowa has been forced to reshuffle the line after losing tackle Alaric Jackson to a sprained knee. Iowa hosts Rutgers on Saturday.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Jorge Soler broke the Kansas City home run record with his 39th homer of the season and Ryan O’Hearn hit a game-ending home run as the Royals beat the Detroit Tigers 6-5.
ST. LOUIS (AP) — Jack Flaherty pitched one-hit ball over eight innings, Marcell Ozuna homered and the St. Louis Cardinals _ with a fluky foul ball-turned-base hit _ beat the San Francisco Giants 1-0. Flaherty carried a no-hitter into the sixth inning and dominated with eight strikeouts and a walk. The 23-year-old right-hander threw a career-high 113 pitches, 84 for strikes, and lowered his ERA to 0.90 over his past 11 starts dating to July 7.
MANHATTAN, Kan. (AP) — There was a time when fast-paced, air-it-out spread offenses were a novel concept in college football. Kansas State remains decidedly old school. Their ground-based system under new coach Chris Klieman bludgeoned Nicholls State in the opener last weekend. Kansas State hosts Bowling Green on Saturday.
LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) — Kansas linebacker Thomas Patrick Barrett has been arrested at a student bar on suspicion of contributing to a child’s misconduct and displaying or possessing a fictitious or fraudulent ID card. The Lawrence Journal-World reports that the 20-year-old from Cleveland posted $1,500 bond and was released from jail a couple of hours after his early Sunday arrest at the Jayhawk Cafe, which is commonly known as The Hawk.
