Maury Wills, who intimidated pitchers with his base-stealing prowess as a shortstop for the Los Angeles Dodgers on three World Series championship teams, has died. He was 89.

Wills died Monday night at home in Sedona, Arizona, the team said Tuesday after being informed by family members. No cause of death was given.

A mistrial was declared Friday in the child sex abuse case against former Texas Rangers pitcher John Wetteland.

The jury in Denton County (Texas) insisted it was deadlocked to the judge, who ruled on the mistrial after a day of deliberations.
