Last Night in Sports: June 6, 2026

Saturday belonged to the desert. Vegas dug out of a 4-0 hole and stole Stanley Cup Final Game 3 from Carolina 5-4 in double overtime, Shea Theodore burying the winner to push the series to 2-1. The NBA board was dark before Finals Game 3 Monday at MSG. Fourteen MLB games filled the rest of the night, headlined by a 13-run Astros line in Houston, a pair of road shutouts on the AL board, and a Pete Crow-Armstrong two-homer night that walked off the Giants in 10 at Wrigley. Rain wiped out Red Sox-Yankees in the Bronx.

NHL — Stanley Cup Final, Game 3

Vegas Golden Knights, 5 — Carolina Hurricanes, 4 (2OT). The Golden Knights rallied from a 4-0 deficit, with Carolina tying it late in regulation before Shea Theodore put it home in the second overtime. Series: VGK leads series 2-1. Game 4 is Tuesday in Las Vegas — Carolina now needs to flip a series it once had on the ropes.
