Gorzelanny done

PITTSBURGH — Pirates starter Tom Gorzelanny will miss the rest of the season because of an injury to his left middle finger.

Gorzelanny left his start against the Houston Astros in the third inning Wednesday night with an irritation in his finger.

The left-hander was examined Friday, when it was determined that his season was finished.

Cavs sign West

CLEVELAND — Guard Delonte West signed a multiyear deal with the Cleveland Cavaliers on Friday, ending concerns the restricted free agent would hold out at training camp.

General Manager Danny Ferry didn’t disclose terms of the deal Friday.

The Cavaliers acquired West from the Seattle SuperSonics on Feb. 21 as part of a three-team, 11-player trade.

Sprint Cup qualifying washed out again

LOUDON, N.H. — Rain washed out NASCAR Sprint Cup qualifying for the second straight week. This time, though, Joey Logano gets to race.

A week ago at Richmond the rainout left the 18-year-old phenom out of the lineup and frustrated because he was entered in a fourth Joe Gibbs Racing car that had no owner points. This week, Logano is entered in the No. 96 Hall of Fame Racing entry, 39th in the owners points.

That gave Logano a guaranteed starting spot in the 43-car field for Sunday’s Sylvania 300.
