Nascar

Jeff Gordon has earned a chance to race for a fifth career title in his final season before retirement after gaining an automatic berth in NASCAR's championship race with a victory at Martinsville Speedway. Gordon's shot at claiming the Sprint Cup came in large part because of Matt Kenseth, who intentionally wrecked race leader Joey Logano with 47 laps remaining in apparent retaliation for an incident that occurred three races earlier.

Gordon, whose most recent championship came in 2001, won for the first time in 39 races.

World Series

The Kansas City Royals are World Series champions for the first time in 30 years. The Royals won it 7-2. Christian Colon's go-ahead RBI single in the top of the 12th.

Lorenzo Cain laced a three-run double in the 12th for Kansas City, which scored twice in the ninth inning to tie the game. The Royals captured their first World Series title since 1985.  Royals catcher Salvador Perez is the Most Valuable Player of the World Series. Perez hit .364 with three runs and an RBI in Kansas City's five-game win over the New York Mets.
