Here is the latest Mid-America sports news from The Associated Press

CARSON, Calif. (AP) — Patrick Mahomes’ first Week 1 start could not have gone any better. The second-year quarterback became the third player in Chiefs’ history to throw for four touchdowns in an opener. Before Kansas City fans begin running wild with Mahomes mania, coach Andy Reid and Mahomes are quick to point out there are still plenty of things to work on after a 38-28 victory Sunday over the Los Angeles Chargers.

CARSON, Calif. (AP) — Patrick Mahomes’ first game as the Kansas City Chiefs’ permanent starting quarterback was impressive to everyone, including Philip Rivers. Mahomes’ veteran counterpart with the Los Angeles Chargers effusively praised the second-year pro after he led the Chiefs to a 38-28 win. Mahomes passed for 256 yards and four touchdowns in just his second NFL start, and his first after the Chiefs traded Alex Smith and went all-in on their first-round pick.

DETROIT (AP) — The St. Louis Cardinals scored five runs in the seventh inning after the game at Detroit was delayed when a squirrel ran on the field. The Cardinals went on to win 5-2. The episode was sure to revive memories for St. Louis fans of the 2011 Rally Squirrel at Busch Stadium, which showed up during the playoffs during the Cardinals’ run to the World Series.

MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Willians Astudillo hit a two-out, two-run homer in the bottom of the ninth inning that gave the Minnesota Twins a 3-1 victory over the Kansas City Royals. Max Kepler doubled off Jason Hammel with two outs in the Twins ninth. Astudillo then hit a drive deep to left field for his third home run of the season.

CARSON, Calif. (AP) — Tyreek Hill scored three touchdowns, Patrick Mahomes passed for his first four NFL scores and the Kansas City Chiefs opened the season with a 38-28 victory over the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday. Hill had a 91-yard punt return for a score and a 58-yard TD reception during the first quarter before adding a 1-yard reception for a score in the fourth quarter to put the game out of reach.

Hill also had 169 yards on seven receptions, which is the second-most yards by a Chiefs receiver in an opener, according to Pro Football Reference. Carlos Carson had 173 yards receiving against New Orleans in 1985.

Mahomes, who moved into the starting spot after Alex Smith was traded to Washington in the offseason, was 15 of 27 for 256 yards as the Chiefs extended their winning streak over the Chargers to nine.

Chiefs: Continue their road trip next Sunday at Pittsburgh. Kansas City has dropped three of its last four to the Steelers in the regular season.

DETROIT (AP) — The St. Louis Cardinals needed something to get them going on Sunday against the Detroit Tigers. Out of nowhere — again — a squirrel appeared.
In an episode sure to revive St. Louis fans’ memories of the 2011 Rally Squirrel, this game at Comerica Park was scoreless going into the seventh inning. That’s when a squirrel took up residence between second and third base.

There was a delay and, with some prompting from the Tigers infield, the critter moved into foul territory and eventually made its escape in right field. The Cardinals wound up scoring five times in the inning and avoided a series sweep with a 5-2 victory.

“I don’t think you can discount that factor,” manager Mike Shildt said. “The squirrel shows up and we score five runs. We only had six in the whole series before that.”
During the 2011 NL Division Series, a squirrel cut across the diamond at Busch Stadium, running right past home plate during a game against Philadelphia. The Cards went on to win the playoff series and later the championship — their World Series rings even depicted a squirrel.

“I don’t necessarily believe in superstitions like that,” said Cardinals shortstop Paul DeJong, who had a hit in the seventh. But he added: “Maybe you could call it the Rally Squirrel.” The Cardinals lost the first two games of the series in walk-off fashion and didn’t have a baserunner until the sixth against Michael Fulmer.

St. Louis, which has a one-game lead for the second NL wild card spot, won for the third time in eight games.
UP NEXT
Cardinals: Return home for a three-game series against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Adam Wainwright (1-3, 4.00 ERA) starts Monday for the Cardinals against Pittsburgh’s Trevor Williams (12-9, 3.15).
