Play It Forward: July 22-28 on your sports calendar: Volleyball in Long Beach, surf?s up in Huntington, and Cooperstown becomes a ghost town
How to plan out your lazy summer week ahead:
THIS WEEK?S BEST BET:
WORLD SERIES OF BEACH VOLLEYBALL, Long Beach, Monday-Sunday:
Sharknado warnings aside, this? week-long festival near Marina Green Park off Shoreline Drive has ?all things beach,? as the organizers call it. That?s the actual volleyball matches mixed in with music, sun screen and likely some adult beverages.?It will be the most extraordinary beach volleyball event in the history of the planet,? said creator Leonard Armato, the former AVP commissioner and CEO. ?It will ignite the entire volleyball community. Nothing like this has ever been done. It combines beach volleyball and beach lifestyles.?
Sanctioned by FIVB, the sport?s international governing body, it includes AAU youth tournament, a NCSVA college event, amateur co-ed four-person and six-man competitions, and concludes with a women?s semifinal and final on Saturday, a men?s semi and final on Sunday (Channel 4, 1:30 p.m.).
Kerri Walsh Jennings (playing with Whitney Pavlik), April Ross, Jen Kessy, Todd Rogers, Phil Dalhausser and Sean Rosenthal are the headliners among 128 pros attending from 16 countries. NBC Sports Network and Universal Sports also has coverage.

BEST OF THE REST:
MONDAY
MLB: DODGERS at TORONTO, 4 p.m., Channel 9:
These Blue Jays may have spent lots of off-season dough (like the Dodgers) but all they have to show for it is a sub-.500 mark and a last-place spot in the AL East ? despite an 11-game winning streak in mid-June. Blame Canada. The Dodgers will miss having to face R.J. Dickey or Mark Buehrle ? but that?s kind of a bad thing.
The series continues:
Tuesday and Wednesday,? 4 p.m., Channel 9
MLB: ANGELS vs. MINNESOTA, Angel Stadium, 7:05 p.m., FSW:
Best we can offer up here is a Surfing Rally Monkey Plush toy giveaway during Tuesday?s game.
The series continues:
Tuesday, 7:05 p.m., FSW
Wednesday, 12:35 p.m., FSW
THURSDAY
MLB: DODGERS vs. CINCINNATI, Dodger Stadium, 7:10 p.m., Prime:
Last time they gave out a Vin Scully bobble head, a rare rainbow appeared over the right-field pavilion. Here?s another Scully trinket giveaway on the first game of this set. Where do we look to the heavens this time?
The rest of the series:
Friday, 7:10 p.m., Prime
Saturday, 6:10 p.m., Prime
Sunday, 1:10 p.m., Prime
MLB: ANGELS at OAKLAND, 7:05 p.m., FSW:
Tired of watching ?Moneyball? show better dividends in the AL West than ?Arte-Ball?? Than we suggest don?t watching how these four games play out.
The series continues:
Friday, 7:05 p.m., FSW
Saturday, noon, Channel 11
Sunday, 1:05 p.m., FSW
GOLF:SENIOR BRITISH OPEN at Southport, England, first round, 9 a.m., ESPN2:
Royal Birkdale is the 11th different course to host this event in its 27th year. A year ago, Fred Couples birdied his last two holes, closing with a 25-foot putt, to secure a two-shot victory in Turnberry, Scotland.
ESPN2 has coverage Friday, Saturday and Sunday (9 a.m.)
WNBA: SPARKS vs. SEATTLE, Staples Center, 12:30 p.m., TWC SportsNet:
You?ve got something better to do on your downtown lunch break?
SATURDAY
SOCCER: GALAXY at COLORADO, 4 p.m., ESPN2:
Have you seen the rapidly developing stories about how a group of counties in Colorado are talking about colluding to break away and form their own state ? Northern Colorado ? as the nation?s 51st star on the flag? The MLS Rapids play in Commerce City, a suburb north of Denver and part of Adams County, which somehow is not part of the eight-county coalition that wants to pull out. The Rapids would still be drawing from fans in Greeley, which would be part of this new Northern Colorado annex. At least the team could market itself as being a multi-state attraction.
BOWLING: 70th U.S. OPEN from Columbus, Ohio, 9 a.m., ESPN:
Pete Weber won his fifth title last year ? his first was in 1988 ? with a 215-214 victory over Mike Fagan. Go ahead, pump your fist and shout it out.
SUNDAY
SOCCER: CONCACAF GOLD CUP FINAL, at Soldier Field, Chicago, 1 p.m., Channel 11:
The U.S. will plant a flag here if it gets past its semifinal on Wednesday at Cowboy Stadium in Arlington, Tex. (4 p.m., Fox Soccer Channel).
BASEBALL HALL OF FAME INDUCTION CEREMONY, 10 a.m.? MLB Network:
www.dodgersblueheaven.com
Since Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens and Mike Piazza were not given Hall passes in their first year of eligibility, they might as well hold this year?s ceremony in an Iowa cornfield. Where else would we find former New York Yankees owner Jacob Ruppert, former umpire Hank O?Day and former catcher/third baseman Deacon White ? all of whom died before 1940? For the first time since 1960, there are no living Hall inductees. ?This will definitely have a different flavor than when we have fans who come to celebrate living inductees,? Hall of Fame president Jeff Idelson told the Wall Street Journal. ?No one here expects our (attendance) numbers to be what they would be if we had a headline Hall of Famer.? Know who could have brought a crowd: Gil Hodges. If the Brooklyn Dodgers first baseman ever makes it in, you might even get Vin Scully there to accept it for him.
In a ceremony Saturday before Sunday?s event, former Dodgers team doctor Frank Jobe will be honored for his contributions to the game ? particularly the Tommy John surgery. We asked Dr. Jobe back in January of 2012 if he thought he was worthy of being inducted into the Hall ? which is still isn?t going to be, but will be getting recognition from the Hall in any regards. ?I?d be happy to accept it. I?m not sure if I know what ?worthy? means. It?s been a wonderful 38 years (since the John surgery) , and if (the Hall acknowledge) happened, that would be a beautiful thing. I?d be very proud and happy about it.?
U.S. OPEN OF SURFING, Huntington Beach pier, men?s and women?s final round,? noon:
Yup, 11-time ASP world champion Kelly Slater is back on board, along with Dane Reynolds, defending champ Julian Wilson and two-time champ and local star Brett Simpson. On the women?s side, it?s top-ranked Tyler Wright going against Courtney Conlogue and defending champ Lakey Peterson.
NASCAR: BRICKYARD 400 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway, 9 a.m., ESPN:
Defending champ Jimmie Johnson, who has won four of the last seven times at the famous track, is tied with Jeff Gordon, the inaugural Brickyard winner in 1994, for the most wins in the event?s history. Then there?s the Danica Patrick factor ? this is her first NASCAR race on the track where she?s also competed in seven Indianapolis 500s with the IRL.

GSK CEO to speak on China scandal
GlaxoSmithKline Chief Executive Andrew Witty will detail what action the drugmaker is taking in response to allegations of bribery against it in China when he presents quarterly results on Wednesday, sources familiar with the matter said.
Chinese authorities are investigating GSK deals with travel agencies worth up to 3 billion yuan ($489 million) that they allege were used to facilitate bribes. The scale of the payments has fueled debate as to whether GSK surveillance systems were up to the job of spotting wrongdoing.
Although an internal company investigation has yet to conclude, people familiar with the matter said Witty would discuss what may have gone wrong in the scandal, which has rocked GSK's reputation and left its management in China in disarray.
"He will give his perspective on what appears to have gone on and how it can be put right," one of the sources said on Sunday.

GSK has run into problems despite conducting up to 20 internal audits in China each year, resulting in the sacking of dozens of staff for misconduct. In 2012, GSK dismissed 312 staff for policy violations worldwide, according to its annual Corporate Responsibility report, of which 56 were in China.
Britain's biggest drugmaker, which has described the allegations against it in China as "shameful", has already hired Ernst & Young to conduct an independent review of its systems in the country and sent three senior executives to lead the response on the ground.
A company spokesman said it was also keeping all relevant regulators updated as appropriate. The charges from China could expose GSK to prosecution under Britain's Bribery Act and the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.
GSK declined to comment further ahead of the second-quarter results, which are due at 1100 GMT on July 24.
Despite the crisis, the company's shares have held up?reflecting the fact that China accounts for only around 3 percent of sales.

Bank of America Merrill Lynch analysts said in a research note that the financial impact of the affair was likely to be limited, although the issue would be a "key topic" at the results update.
Others snared in China
While the spotlight remains firmly on GSK, Chinese authorities are also probing other companies and individuals involved in the pharmaceutical sector as part of a broad-based drive to root out corruption.
Two people familiar with the situation said at the weekend that Shanghai police had arrested a British man, Peter Humphrey, who runs an international business risk advisory firm that has worked with drug companies including GSK.
Humphrey? the founder of ChinaWhys, which says on its website that it aims to guide multinationals through "the labyrinth" of risks and opportunities in China?could not be reached for comment.
Last week, Chinese authorities also visited the Shanghai office of Belgian drugmaker UCB. A UCB spokesman said the visit was part of a wider investigation that included other drug companies, although he did not identify them.

Local golf tournament remembers legendary coach
The 5th annual Ballard Lee golf tournament was held on Saturday at Clear Creek golf course in Bristol, Va.
The tournament is held in honor of former Virginia High basketball coach Ballard Lee.
Each year two students from Virginia High are awarded two $500 scholarships and a laptop computer.
Isiah Porter and Jessica Ritter were the recipients of the 2013 Ballard Lee scholarships.
Porter will attend Averett University in the fall.
" This means a lot to me and to know of the legacy of this man and to know that I got this scholarship, it's out of this world," said Porter.
Ritter will attend King University in the fall.
" King is expensive. It's going to help me a lot. I got a $500 scholarship, it's going to help with tuition, books and housing. The laptop I got will help with my studies," said Ritter.

Clemson Player Joins Suit Against NCAA
RALPH D. RUSSO
AP College Football Writer
?
NEW YORK (AP) - Six college football players have been added as plaintiffs to a high-profile lawsuit that claims the NCAA owes billions of dollars to former players for allowing their likenesses to be used without compensation.
?
The players are: Vanderbilt linebacker Chase Garnham; Clemson cornerback Darius Robinson; linebacker Jake Fischer and kicker Jake Smith from Arizona; and tight end Moses Alipate and wide receiver Victor Keise of Minnesota.
?
Former UCLA basketball star Ed O'Bannon is the lead plaintiff in the long-running legal battle that could fundamentally alter how the NCAA operates.
?
A federal judge in Oakland, Calif., on July 5 allowed the attorneys to update their lawsuit to fix legal technicalities,? including adding at least one active player to the lawsuit.
?
The judge is still mulling whether to turn the lawsuit into a class action.
