BERLIN -- Bayer Leverkusen coach Roger Schmidt was helpless to intervene on Tuesday as his side slumped a 4-3 defeat on penalties at third-division Sportfreunde Lotte in the second round of the German Cup.Schmidt was watching TV coverage on a tablet from the team bus as Lotte goalkeeper Benedikt Fernandez saved Julian Baumgartlingers spot kick and then Luka Tankulic fired the home side, which had played 40 minutes with 10 men, into the third round.The 49-year-old Leverkusen coach was serving the first of his two-game ban for shouting an insult at Hoffenheim counterpart Julian Nagelsmann during their sides Bundesliga game on Saturday. The final two games of a previous five-game ban that Schmidt was given in February for another pitch-side offense had been suspended.Kevin Volland opened the scoring with his first Leverkusen goal midway through the first half, only for the home side to draw level through Roberto Hilberts own goal after the break.Leverkusen was given a boost with over 10 minutes of normal time remaining when Lotte defender Tim Wendel was sent off for a second yellow card, but the visitors were unable to make it count until early in extra time, when Volland grabbed his second.Lotte, which upset Werder Bremen in the first round, equalized 10 minutes later through Kevin Freiberger on a counterattack to force the penalty shoot-out.Volland and Charles Aranguiz both missed for Leverkusen, while Lotte only got going at the third attempt. There were no mistakes after that until Fernandez proved the hero, injuring himself in the process.Bundesliga sides Hertha Berlin, Hamburger SV and Borussia Moenchengladbach had no problems against lower-league opposition later.In another penalty shoot-out, 1860 Munich defeated second-division rival Wuerzburger Kickers 4-3 after their game ended scoreless.Here are the other matches on Tuesday:---EINTRACHT FRANKFURT 4, INGOLSTADT 1 on penalties (0-0 after extra time)Japan midfielder Makoto Hasebe fired Frankfurt into the next round with the decisive spot kick in the penalty shootout.The home side needed only four penalty-takers with the visitors missing two.Frankfurt played extra time with a player less after Marco Fabian was shown his second yellow card late in normal time.---FREIBURG 3, SANDHAUSEN 4 on penalties (3-3 after extra time)Second-division Sandhausen caused another upset in knocking out Bundesliga side Freiburg, which needed a questionable penalty to force the game into extra time.Nils Petersen scored from the spot to level it at 3-3 after referee Tobias Stieler awarded the home side a penalty when Sandhausen defender Philipp Klingmann tumbled with Janik Haberer. If anything, it was the Freiburg midfielder who committed the foul.Haberer went on to miss the decisive spot kick as the underdogs triumphed.---HALLESCHER FC 0, HAMBURGER SV 4Bottom of the Bundesliga, Hamburg took out its league frustrations at third-division Hallescher FC, with Bobby Wood grabbing two goals for the visitors in the first half.Wood had also scored both of Hamburgs two league goals, but fears of an overreliance on the American forward were eased when Pierre-Michel Lasogga scored before the hour-mark and Luca Waldschmidt wrapped it up late within a minute of coming on as a substitute.---ST.

The teams, and a few thousand fans, waited nearly four hours from the 7:05 scheduled start time before an announcement was made shortly before 11 p. A panel of ESPN baseball experts is forecasting Washington Nationals starter Max Scherzer to comfortably win the NL Cy Young. In the AL, the voting was much tighter, with Rick Porcello, Corey Kluber and Justin Verlander all getting significant support. Which one will win when the honors are announced Wednesday between 6 p.m. and 7 p.m. ET?We had 27 experts pick who they think will win each award. The voting breakdown for the awards is listed below, as well as the votes of our experts.Who will win the AL Cy Young Award?1. Rick Porcello Boston Red Sox VOTES: 11After a disastrous first season in Boston, Porcello bounced back, going 22-4 with a 3.15 ERA in 2016. He finished in the top five in the AL in ERA (5th at 3.15), WHIP (2nd at 1.01), innings pitched (4th at 223) and WAR (5th at 5.0).2. Corey Kluber Cleveland Indians VOTES: 9With injuries to Carlos Carrasco and Danny Salazar, the Indians needed Kluber to be an ace in 2016, and he was. Kluber finished 18-9 and inside the top five in strikeouts (5th with 227), ERA (4th at 3.14) and WAR (2nd at 6.5).3. Justin Verlander Detroit Tigers VOTES: 7Verlander had his best season since 2012, posting an AL-best WHIP of 1.00 and finishing 16-9. He also led AL pitchers in WAR (6.6) and strikeouts (254), and was second in ERA (3.04).Who will win the NL Cy Young Award?1. Max Scherzer Washington Nationals VOTES: 20If you want league-leading numbers, Scherzer has them, as hhe topped the NL in wins (20), starts (34), innings (228 ?) and the majors in Ks with 284.dddddddddddd Add his record-tying 20-strikeout game on May 11 (against his old team, the Tigers), and youd think Scherzer has the right combo of feats and highlights to earn his second Cy Young Award -- which would make him the sixth pitcher to win it both leagues (joining Roger Clemens, Pedro Martinez, Randy Johnson, Gaylord Perry and Roy Halladay).2. Jon Lester Chicago Cubs VOTES: 4The Cubs veteran lefty was second to Scherzer in wins, second to Hendricks in ERA and third in the NL in OPS against. In that sense, Lesters case is a combination of some of the merits of the other two, without being as strong, but perhaps his best talking point was being the No. 1 starter on the best team in the league, leading the Cubs in starts and innings pitched.3. Kyle Hendricks Chicago Cubs VOTES: 3Hendricks did more than provide hope for finesse right-handers with a 16-win season. He dominated in 2016, winning the MLB ERA title with the best single-season mark (2.13) by anybody not named Kershaw, Greinke or Arrieta in the past 10 years. Add in his MLB-best 188 ERA+, lowest OPS against (.583) and lowest well-hit average allowed (.089) among ERA title qualifiers, and he clearly belongs in the conversation. ' ' '
