NHL news: Islanders extend Kyle Okposo<\/strong><\/p>\n

The New York Islanders have locked up one of their key prospects for the next five years. Kyle Okposo, their first pick in the 2006 draft, has an extension reportedly worth $14 million.

MLB news: Buster Posey breaks leg? \u00a0Mets to sell share of team to Einhorn; Wilson Valdez gets a pitching win<\/strong><\/p>\n

San Francisco Giants catcher Buster Posey was scheduled for an MRI after injuring his ankle during last night\u2019s loss to the Florida Marlins. Florida\u2019s Scott Cousins barrelled into him while scoring the game-winning run. Posey\u2019s foot stuck in the dirty and he twisted awkwardly as he fell.<\/p>\n

BREAKING NEWS<\/strong>: whispers are now suggesting Posey has a broken leg and torn ligaments. It\u2019s devastating news for the Giants and the 2010 National League Rookie of the Year.<\/p>\n

The New York Mets may finally have some financial relief; they agreed this week to sell less than 49 per cent of the team to David Einhorn for roughly $200 million. Einhorn, the president of Greenlight Capital Inc., won\u2019t receive a stake in the TV network SNY, which is owned by the Mets. \"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

He entered to toss a scoreless 19th inning after the Phillies had exhausted their bullpen. Valdez also became the first position player to start on the field and <\/em>win as a pitcher in 90 years. The last guy to do it was Mr. Babe Ruth in 1921.<\/p>\n
