The MLB All-Star break didn’t seem to fix the Boston Red Sox’s problems. Boston lost by 23 runs to the Toronto Blue Jays on Friday in one of the biggest blowouts in MLB history. That’s bad on its own, but the loss is even worse when grouped with the Red Sox’s two previous losses to the New York Yankees where Boston lost by a combined 24 runs six days before the Blue Jays game. The Red Sox’s -47 run differential over that three-game stretch is the worst by any MLB team since 1900, according to Source link

In one year, LeBron James is scheduled to hit NBA free agency. There will be many teams interested in the talents of the Los Angeles Lakers star, but we can probably cross the Boston Celtics off the list. James did not have very nice things to say about the Celtics, particularly their fanbase, during an episode of his talk show “The Shop” released Friday. Specifically, he identified TD Garden has his least favorite place to play after soccer player Marcus Rashford discussed Premier League… Source link

The New York Yankees-Boston Red Sox rivalry has seen some of baseball’s best moments … and whatever happened on Friday at Fenway Park. With two runners on and one out in the third inning, Yankees outfielder Joey Gallo hit a fly ball to right field. It was not a very good fly ball. It should have been well within range for any right fielder worth his salt; MLB’s Statcast gave it an xBA of .010. Basically, a one percent chance of being a hit. That routine fly ball turned into an adventure,… Source link

In 2009, Detroit native Aswad Thomas, a former NCAA Division III college basketball standout, was just three weeks away from playing professionally in Europe when gun violence derailed his career and nearly killed him. “I was shot twice in my back,” he told Yahoo News. “That incident changed my life.” Thomas recalled learning from doctors and therapists of the physical challenges he would endure after suffering collapsed lungs and a dislocated shoulder, but said he was never told of… Source link

Nathan Eovaldi‘s bad day on Tuesday was one fan’s very good fortune. The Boston Red Sox entered the second inning at home holding a 1-0 lead over the Astros. They left trailing, 9-1 after a record-tying outburst sent five home runs into the Fenway Park stands en route to a 13-4 Houston romp. Eovaldi surrendered all five. One lucky fan caught two of them.

China has slammed Australia for opposing its security pact with Solomon Islands, calling it a colonialist myth-driven violation of sovereignty and saying Canberra had no right to lay down any “red line”. This came as Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison said a Chinese military base in the South Pacific nation would be a “red line” for his government, days after Beijing and Honiara confirmed the signing of the deal without revealing details. Talk of China building a naval base on Solomon… Source link

The U.S. economy added nearly half a million jobs in March. The Dow Jones industrial average is within 6% of its record high. And U.S. households accumulated roughly $2.5 trillion in excess savings throughout the pandemic. Still, despite all the good news, predictions of an impending recession are widespread on Wall Street. Billionaire investors, former Federal Reserve officials, and now even investment banks have repeatedly warned that the economy may hit a wall in 2023. What’s driving the… Source link

The priciest tickets to college basketball’s most obscenely expensive game sold seven months ago during a charity auction benefiting cancer research. A close friend of Mike Krzyzewski forked over an eye-popping sum of money to secure four courtside tickets to the retiring Duke coach’s final home game on Saturday against North Carolina. Before anyone else at the V Foundation’s dinner gala could raise a numbered paddle to bid on the tickets, Michael Marks walked on stage unannounced with a… Source link

Contracts on Wall Street’s key benchmarks crawled in post-market trading Monday after U.S. stocks closed lower to end a choppy session wrought by mixed corporate earnings and renewed Federal Reserve worries ahead of a fresh inflation report due out this week. Futures on all three main indexes were flat ahead of overnight trading after equities extended a streak of volatility that has become the norm this year so far. In Monday’s main session, the S&P 500 faltered after its best weekly rise… Source link
