WEEKEND PREVIEW: THE BEST OF THE WEEKEND IN SPORTS
Mystics at Connecticut Sun
Will a win Sunday in the last regular season game for the Mystics be a precursor to an unexpected run through the WNBA playoffs?
3M Performance 400
No Chevrolet has won at Michigan since Jeff Gordon in 2001. We’re not sure whether that means anything. A sleeper for Sunday: Bill Elliott (seven wins there).
Little League World Series
Mark Waguespack and Canaan Cropper lead Salisbury, Md., tomorrow against a team from Chandler, Ariz., in the first game of pool play.

Cincinnati Masters
Nadal, Roddick and Djokovic are gone, but world No. 1 Roger Federer is still on track to win his final tune-up event before the U.S. Open.
