FARGO, N.D. -- An ornate prize belt that has been awarded to some of Americas top professional athletes was stolen early Tuesday from the Roger Maris Museum inside a North Dakota shopping mall.Police say a burglar smashed a glass display case holding the Hickok Belt, which since 1950 has been awarded to athletes such as Muhammed Ali, Mickey Mantle, Sandy Koufax and Ben Hogan. Maris, who grew up in Fargo, won the belt in 1961 after he hit a then-record 61 home runs for the New York Yankees.Police said the investigation was ongoing and determined later in the day that Maris 1960 American League Most Valuable Player plaque also was missing.Chris Heaton, property manager of West Acres Mall, which houses the Roger Maris Museum, said he was deeply disturbed by the incident.We feel violated this morning, and Im sure many others in the community do as well, that something was stolen from Fargos favorite son, Roger Maris, Heaton said.Heaton said the leather belt has a look similar to those awarded to boxing champions. The original belts included a 4?-carat diamond and an 18-carat gold buckle. It is worth between $90,000 and $140,000, according to the website.We obviously consider everything in this case to be priceless, Heaton said.The incident happened about 2:50 a.m. Tuesday. Fargo Deputy Police Chief Joe Anderson said surveillance video shows a man dressed in dark clothing breaking out a glass entry door on the malls southeast side and heading directly to the display, about 100 feet from the door. The thief headed outside immediately after nabbing the belt and jumped into the passenger side of a vehicle.Heaton said security personnel at the mall arrived at the display two minutes after an alarm went off.Obviously, the amount of time that they were in and out would lead us to believe they knew what they were looking for, Anderson said. As far as their motive and what they plan on doing with that item, that will have to be determined through the course of the investigation.The Hickok Belt was first awarded by the Rochester Press-Radio Club in 1950 to Yankees shortstop Phil Rizzuto. Arnold Palmer won it the year before Maris. The award was discontinued in 1976 and revived in 2013, when LeBron James was honored by sports writers.Heaton said most of the items in the 32-year-old Fargo museum, including the belt, are on loan from Maris family members, who return to Fargo every summer for a charity golf tournament started by their father. Maris died in 1985 and is buried in Fargo.True to Rogers wishes, the museum is visible, accessible and free, Heaton said. And it speaks to the great amount of respect the people have for Roger Maris that this is the first security incident weve had in 32 years. Derrick Favors Jersey .

SHANGHAI --?Andy Murray admits his proximity to world No. 1 Novak Djokovic in the rankings has caused him to reassess his short-term targets.A straight-sets victory over Roberto Bautista Agut in the final of the Shanghai Masters, winning 7-6 (1), 6-1 in 96 minutes, gave the Scot his sixth title of the year.More importantly, it moved him to within 915 points of Djokovic, who lost to Bautista Agut in the semifinals.With Murray currently in top form, having won 20 sets in succession to take the China and Shanghai titles, he has now set his sights on the Serbians position at the top of the rankings -- although he admits overhauling the 12-time Grand Slam winner will be difficult.My goal wasnt to finish No. 1 at the end of this year, but in the early parts of next year, there is an opportunity, he said. 900 points doesnt seem like loads. But Novak will win matches. He is the best player in the world. I dont think he has lost an indoor [match] in a long time.Murrays form is on an upward curve, and the Olympic gold medalist is pleased with how changes to his game have made a difference.ddddddddddddIn the last few months, I have won a lot of matches and made improvements, he added.I have been moving forward better and changed the direction of the ball better. I have also come up with some bigger serves when I have needed them.Murrays victory in Shanghai was his 41st career title, and he won it with very little fuss once he had comfortably negotiated a first-set tiebreak.Things went with serve until Murray broke his Spanish opponent to take a 4-3 lead, but when Bautista Agut broke back and then made it 6-5, Murray took the first set to a tiebreak with a love game.He cruised through the tiebreak to make it 19 sets won in a row, before three breaks of service to one for his opponent in the second set eased the Briton into a 5-1 lead. From there he closed out the match with a number of 100 mph second serves and powerful groundstrokes.
