Minnesota Lynx center Janel McCarville will not play for the team this summer. Her agent said it's to save her body from wearing down.

The 32-year-old McCarville may return to the court later this year, but overseas.

The Minnesota Twins return home after a road trip, and have played better than expected so far this year.

And the Preakness is being run in Baltimore this weekend.

MPR's Cathy Wurzer spoke with Howard Sinker, a digital sports editor for the Star Tribune, about those sports stories.
