■ Hockey: NHL commission­er Gary Bettman said Mitchell Miller is not eligible to play in the league, one day after the 20-year-old defenseman signed an entry-level deal with Boston. Arizona picked Miller in the 2020 draft’s fourth round, but the Coyotes relinquish­ed his rights because he bullied a Black classmate with developmen­tal disabiliti­es in middle school.

■ Soccer: At Los Angeles, Gareth Bale tied the score 3-3 with a header in the eighth minute of stoppage time, backup goalkeeper John Mccarthy stopped two Philadelph­ia shots in the shootout, and Los Angeles FC beat the Union 3-0 on penalty kicks to win its first MLS Cup title.
