After a spring training session in Maryvile, Ariz., infielder Scooter Gennett discovered a stray dachshund wandering around. Gennett managed to scoop the dog up and take it to a local vet, where it will be cared for. The Brewers rescued a stray at spring training last year, naming him Hank. The dog became the unofficial mascot of the team and even won Dog of the Year at the World Dog Awards....
“The Election Integrity Act expands access to the polls and ensures the integrity of the ballot box. Then, why did MLB move the All-Star game yesterday? Because Joe Biden and Stacey Abrams have spent days lying to Georgians and the American people,” he said. Kemp accused the president of not reading the bill. He also attacked Abrams, saying she has been profiting off the uproar surrounding the legislation. “The truth is that Joe Biden hasn’t read the bill and Stacey Abrams is raising millions off the fake outrage that she has created....
It’s no surprise, though, that IMS officials have covered seats at this mammoth facility. The only question is why fans have stopped coming to see NASCAR, which this weekend makes its 21st annual stop at the track. Most tracks that play host to Sprint Cup races have seen attendance declines over the past six years. Few are as drastic as Indianapolis. In 2006, NASCAR estimated the Cup race attendance at 280,000....
In a Reddit thread called r/weddingshaming, a Redditor posted a photo of the bride’s note. The note reads: “Friday and Saturday June 18th and 19th we will be hosting our wedding ceremony and reception. Please do not camp here! We have an entire guest list arriving for the weekend to celebrate so if you decide to anyways we will set up around you and do it anyway. Make sure you have a gift and a dish for the BBQ....
The 55-second clip, posted on the r/Austin Reddit page, shows an overview of Austin taken from a high point. For the first 18 seconds, repeated bursts of red and blue light, emanating from a position within the city, can be seen. There follows a pause of around 14 seconds, after which the flashes resume from the same location. It is unclear exactly what caused the flashes of light, but there was speculation on social media they could have been triggered by power transformers failing....
Every season one player or another will get caught for trying to gain an edge. Maybe it's PEDs, maybe it's giving signs from second base or flashing a light from the scoreboard. Maybe it's even a pitcher putting a foreign substance on the ball to make it dance. Almost 100 years ago in the 1919-20 season, MLB managers were upset that pitchers were dominating their hitters. It wasn’t because they all threw 95 mph....
In an official statement released to Wall Street analysts this morning, Home Depot said that it was paying the former salesclerk, Lucas Rekson, 24, the unprecedented sum on the condition that “he never shows up to work again.” The $12 million severance package for Rekson of the company’s Torrance, Calif., store is believed to be the largest of its kind ever for a low-level, incompetent employee, industry experts said....
It could be felt in New York in December, too. It goes without saying that Hurts’ performance vaulted him straight into the early Heisman Trophy conversation – which comes easy knowing Oklahoma quarterbacks Baker Mayfield and Kyler Murray won the prestigious award the last two seasons. That Heisman drama could last in both Norman and Tuscaloosa all season, and we could have that Jalen or Tua discussion again. We are here for it....

Matt Kenseth was leading when a caution flag flew for rain on Lap 117. Kenseth maitained the lead when the field pitted, followed by Jamie McMurray, Brad Keselowski, Kurt Busch and Dale Earnhardt Jr. The race was red-flagged at 3:44 p.m. ET. PHOTOS: Bristol crashes The rain lasted about an hour and drivers were called back to their cars at 5:10 p.m. Before they could fire engines, it started raining again, however, leading to another long delay....
Dartmoor, a spot favored by visitors for the moors and open spaces of its national park, now has a more dubious distinction: as a center of foot-and-mouth disease. Hiking trails are closed; visitors are staying away and fields are unsettlingly vacant as farmers are forced to shoot potentially infected herds of cattle and sheep before consigning them to huge funeral pyres. The implications for Britain’s tourist industry are obvious. Less clear, however, is how the country’s struggles to contain the virus afflicting its livestock will impact upon its upcoming general election....
The Tate Modern is part of the booming British art world. Suddenly London has a museum, the galleries, the collectors and the hot artists to rival New York for the top spot. The blocks around Cork Street in the Mayfair district brim with arrogantly pristine showrooms for high-end contemporary art. Advertising mogul Charles Saatchi isn’t the only notable patron anymore; he’s got adventurous and acquisitive company in such moneyed couples as the Stoutzkers (who’ve bought a Chris Ofili to go with their Francis Bacon), the Ritblats (Mr....
The 15-time major winner begins the final major of the season at 3:10 p.m. local time (10:10 a.m. ET), almost nine hours after Darren Clarke hits the first tee shot of the tournament at Royal Portrush Golf Club, Northern Ireland. In theory, playing in the afternoon should be more comfortable for Woods, who has struggled when facing unseasonably cold weather at the last two majors. Rain and winds are expected throughout the weekend at Portrush, with temperatures forecast to be in the 50s to low 60s range....
Speaking to a crowd gathered outside the Stanley Mosk Courthouse in Los Angeles, California, Rosengart thanked Britney Spears “for her strength,” Judge Brenda Penny “for her courtesy in welcoming my firm and I into this case,” Spears’ fans and supporters for their “overwhelming” outreach and support of himself, his firm, and “most importantly, Britney.” The attorney, who has had many other celebrity clients in the past, including Steven Spielberg, Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Sean Penn, reiterated his intention, as he has “said in court last week and outside,” to end Britney Spears’ father, James “Jamie” Spears’ control of her life by removing him from her conservatorship....

The episode, simply titled “Brodie,” is a compilation of testimonials from those who worked closely with the 41-year-old, interspersed with clips from Huber’s classic segments with The Dark Order. There are even never-before-seen outtakes from Brodie Lee’s segments that are just as funny as the actual bits themselves. Huber died Saturday night after two-plus months of being off of AEW television. In a statement on Instagram, Huber’s wife explained that the professional wrestler succumbed to a non-COVID related lung issue....

For example: Allergic asthma: An allergy activates the immune system, causing the release of chemicals that lead to inflammation and cause constriction of the airways....

But Denver safety Justin Simmons blocked the kick and defensive back Will Parks scooped up the ball and returned it the other way for 2 points to give the Broncos a 25-23 lead.
