Julie I'm Walker. Ukraine's president has hailed the country's soldiers from a Black Sea Island to mark 500 days of war. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has marked the day in a video from Snake Island, which has become the symbol of Ukraine's resilience in the face of the Russian invasion. Zelensky honored the Ukrainian soldiers who fought for the island and all other defenders of the country, saying that claiming control of the island is great proof that Ukraine will regain every bit of its territory. He added, I want to thank from here, from this place of the victory, each of our soldiers for these 500 days. On the day the invasion was launched, Russians the urged the Ukrainian military on the island to surrender. The response was one of defiance and resistance. The Russians had hoped to use it as a staging ground for an assault on Odessa, Ukraine's biggest port and the headquarters of its navy. The Ukrainian military recaptured the island a few later months in June 2022. I'm Karen Chammas. The White House says it's pushing for the release of an American Wall Street Journal reporter who remains jailed in Russia. Press Secretary Irene Jean -Pierre notes a grim milestone in the detention of Evan Gershkovich. 100 days since Evan Gershkovich was wrongfully detained by Russian authorities. The world knows that the charges against Evan are baseless. And White House National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan says, as Russia reported, the US has been in contact with Kremlin officials to press for his release and that Paul of Whelan and other Americans. We are prepared to do hard things in order to protect our citizens at our citizens home. The Kremlin earlier this week suggested there could be another prisoner exchange like the one for athlete Brittney Griner. But the White House response was I do not want to give the false hope. What the Kremlin said earlier this week is correct. There have been discussions. But those discussions have not. Produced a clear pathway to a resolution. The 31 -year -old Gershkovich was arrested on espionage charges in March. The Wall Street Journal reporter is being held in a prison notorious for its harsh conditions. Jackie Quinn, Washington. AP Sports, I'm Tom Merriam. Major League Baseball began its final weekend before the All -Star break with a matchup of the teams with the best records in each league. The National League leading Braves the edged American League leading Rays 2 -1. AP Steve Carney has the details. Sean Murphy's two -run race to 1 -0 deficit. Murphy's blast -off race starter Tyler Glass now his 16th of the season would be of one just two hits the Braves had in the game. Wanda Franco's solo homer in the first would be Tampa Bay's only tally off Charlie who Morton pitched into the seventh to earn his ninth win. Another big series began in Milwaukee as the NL Central leading Reds saw their two -game lead over the runner -up Brewers cut in half after a 7 -3 Milwaukee victory. Corbin Burns at yelled just three hits in six innings for a seventh win. I think we can all see that the team that we can be when we're catching fire and rolling so hopefully we can do it for these next two and then the three out of the break against these guys as well. The Phillies have now won 13th straight on the road after a dramatic 4 -3 win in Miami. Other winners included the Rangers, Blue Jays, Red Sox, White Sox, Orioles, Guardians, and Mariners from the American League and in the NL the Dodgers, Diamondbacks, Rockies, Mets, and the Cubs.

This year's NBA Eastern Conference final will feature a rematch of last year's the Celtics will play the heat starting Wednesday for a trip to the finals after blowing past the 76ers one 1288 in game 7 of their conference semifinal series. Jayson Tatum exploded for a game 7 record 51 points. Just being in another game 7, being able to come back home in front of our fans. I was really excited. Just for the moment. Stanley Cup playoffs, the golden knights are in the west finals for the third time in their 6th seasons by eliminating the oilers 5 to two in game 6. A hat trick for Jonathan Marshall. Baseball, the Blue Jays made it a three game sweep of the braves as Danny Jansen hit a two run single in the bottom of the 9th. It's a good team over there, so I had a feeling it was gonna be, you know, big blows going back and forth throughout the series and stuff. So just kept at it. The braves fourth straight loss combined with the Dodge's 5th straight win gave LA, the NL's best record. Tony Gosselin pitched the first 5 innings of Sunday shutout when over the Padres. They're a really good lineup, you know, can't take any pitches off, you know, top to bottom they all hit well. So we were fortunate enough to come out of this one without any without any runs. Another MLB Mother's Day action, the mets and national splitted double header, single game victories for the NL's cardinals, brewers, Diamondbacks, rockies, Marlins and pirates, and the ailes Astros, rangers, twins, tigers, guardians, and rays who beat the Yankees for the fourth time in 7 games over the last ten days for manager Kevin cash. I'm exciting ball games here. For 7, it seems like any team could win any of one of the ball games. Happy that we came up on top today. NASCAR, William Byron took advantage of a pileup to win the Goodyear 400 at Darlington in overtime. I don't think we really thought we could win in the first restart when there was that big wreck. Then we started to get a glimmer of hope, and then we started to go to work on, okay, what are the things we need to do to win it? Golfing was quite a day for Jason Day as he shot a final round 62 to win the Byron Nelson classic. Tom Arian AP sports.
