CFP Championship (New Orleans):
Juicy Landrum set an NCAA record by making 14 3-pointers for all of her career-high 42 points, leading the No. 7 Baylor to a 111-43 victory over visiting Arkansas State in women’s college basketball on Wednesday.
Landrum attempted all but one of her 24 shots from 3-point range as the Lady Bears (9-1) shot 46% from beyond the arc (15 of 33) and 59% overall. The senior guard also had eight rebounds and seven assists.
Trinity Oliver had the other 3 in Baylor’s 56th consecutive home nonconference win since a loss to UConn in January 2014.
Landrum, whose previous career high was 23 points, missed her only two-point attempt. The previous record for 3s was 13 by Lamar’s Moe Kinard in 2018. Landrum shattered the Baylor mark of nine 3-pointers held by Odyssey Sims and Mandy Hayworth.
Baylor never trailed, opening on a 10-0 run and scoring the last 17 points of the second quarter for a 58-19 halftime lead. An 18-1 run in the fourth quarter helped fuel the final margin of 68 points.
Baseball: The Red Sox will pay a record-$13.4 million luxury tax after failing to make the playoffs and the Yankees finished with a $6.7 million bill, likely a fraction of what they will pay next year. Three teams owe tax, according to end-of-year figures sent to clubs and obtained by AP. The Cubs must pay $7.6 million following a season that ended with a September fade and no postseason berth . ... The Brewers finalized a two-year, $20 million contract with OF Avisail Garcia, a move that could cause veteran Ryan Braun to see more time at first base. The deal includes a 2022 club option and could be worth $30 million over three years. Braun, who turned 36 last month, is the team’s primary left fielder. The team also agreed to a one-year deal with corner INF Ryon Healy that pays a $1 million salary in the major leagues and $250,000 in the minors . ... The Marlins agreed to a minor-league contract with former Dodgers OF Matt Kemp. A three-time All-Star, Kemp will receive an invitation to major-league spring training and have an opportunity to make the team . ... The Blue Jays finalized a two-year, $24 million with RHP Tanner Roark. He was 10-10 with a 4.35 ERA in 31 starts last season for the Reds and Athletics . ... The Reds finalized a two-year, $15 million contract with LHP Wade Miley . ... The Cardinals signed LHP Kwang Hyun Kim, 31, to an two-year, $8 million contract.

Soccer: Manchester City stayed on course for a third straight English League Cup title after Raheem Sterling scored two second-half goals in a 3-1 win at third-tier Oxford that proved tougher than expected for the Premier League champions. They were joined in the last four by fierce rival Manchester United and Leicester. United swept aside fourth-tier Colchester 3-0, while Leicester beat Everton 4-2 in a penalty shootout after being pegged back to 2-2 after 90 minutes.
