CLEVELAND -- LeBron James and his Cavaliers teammates will be at the White House on Thursday.An unexpected guest will be there, too.The visit by the reigning NBA champions will coincide with President-elect Donald Trumps meeting with President Barack Obama to discuss the handover of power and transition following a shocking election that left James -- and millions of Americans -- wondering about the future.Gov.

NEW YORK -- With the Yankees a season-high nine games back in the AL East and Carlos Beltran out of the starting lineup because of a leg injury, New York manager Joe Girardi sounds more concerned about a slow start that has turned into a half season of struggles.After improving to one game over .500 last weekend -- their season high was 4-2 in April -- the Yankees (37-39) had lost three straight going into Wednesdays game against the Texas Rangers.Theres a sense of urgency, Girardi said. As days tick away, you start to run out of time, and you dont want to bury yourself.Baltimore is playing extremely well. Boston has run into a few bumps here, but theyve played well. Torontos played well. And so you cant mess around too long and expect to be there.Beltran left Tuesdays game in the first inning with a tight right hamstring. Girardi said he was worried and was not sure whether Beltran would be available to pinch hit.Its not as sore as it was last night, the manager said. I dont think Im going to have Belt tomorrow, either.The 39-year-old Beltran is the Yankees top batter, hitting .297 with 19 homers and 53 RBI.You want to feel goood that when you put him out there hes going to be OK, Girardi said, but in the situation that were in, you cant necessarily always wait as long as you want.ddddddddddddSlumping Alex Rodriguez, benched against right-handed starters earlier this week, replaced Beltran as the Yankees designated hitter. New York starts a trip Friday with an interleague series against the Padres -- meaning there will be no DH.Its probably easy to manage if hes DHing, but were going to San Diego, so thats a concern, Girardi said.First baseman Mark Teixeira, who started four straight games after coming off the disabled list, was given a night off from the starting lineup.Girardi said he did not want to start Teixeira in five consecutive games following his knee injury. Rob Refsnyder replaced him at first.This kids had to adapt to a lot: a couple different position changes, Girardi said. But hes really pushed himself on here because hes made himself more versatile and he gives you really good at-bats and runs the bases well. ' ' '
