NEW YORK (AP) — Detroit pitcher Matt Manning’s right foot was broken Wednesday night when he was hit by a 119.5 mph comebacker off the bat of Giancarlo Stanton in the Tigers’ 4-3 loss to the New York Yankees.The 25-year-old right-hander will miss the rest of the season. He missed 2 1/2 months this year after being hit on the foot by a comebacker off the bat of Toronto’s Alejandro Kirk.“I was just annoyed that it was the same foot, same spot basically,” Manning said. “There are really no positives out of this. It’s unlucky. It happens. I guess pretty cool to get hit by an MVP. I don’t know.”Stanton’s hardest-hit ball this season rebounded off Manning’s foot, struck the pitcher on the backside and was gloved by Manning, who threw to first for the final out of the first inning. Manning immediately was attended to by an athletic trainer and manager A.J. Hinch, who said it was a different spot.Manning was struck by Kirk’s 97.3 mph comebacker on April 1...Andrew Vaughn has double, homer, 2 RBIs and two runs scored as White Sox beat Royals 6-4

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Andrew Vaughn doubled, homered, drove in two runs and scored two as the Chicago White Sox beat the Kansas City Royals 6-4 Wednesday night to snap a five-game losing streak. Elvis Andrus had four hits, and Yoan Moncada and Oscar Colas also went deep for the White Sox.“We’ve got some guys who’ve got some talent,” Chicago manager Pedro Grifol said. “They’ve got to stay away from the ground. There’s no money in the ground. We’ve got to put the ball in the air. Crooked numbers happen when you get the ball up in the air and you’ve got that kind of pop.”Chicago starter Touki Toussaint (3-7) gave up two runs and two hits with six strikeouts over six innings. Bryan Shaw got the last three outs for his second save of the season.“I think I was just executing pitches when I needed to,” Toussaint said. “I don’t think anything particularly was working. I was behind a lot of guys, but I was able to get weak contact when I needed to....Abreu hits grand slam and 3-run shot, Astros complete sweep with 12-3 win over Rangers

ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — José Abreu hit a grand slam and a three-run homer, those among five more long balls for Houston in the pivotal three-game AL West series, and the Astros completed a sweep over the slumping Texas Rangers with a 12-3 victory Wednesday night. Abreu’s grand slam in the third inning was Houston’s third homer against Texas starter Max Scherzer, while fellow three-time Cy Young Award winner Justin Verlander (11-7) settled in after giving up a long ball on his first pitch that was the only earned run he allowed over seven innings. Houston hit 16 homers in the series — its most ever in any three-game span — while outscoring Texas 39-10 in their final head-to-head matchup this regular season. Yordan Alvarez and Michael Brantley also went deep against Scherzer, and Houston tacked on two more homers in the ninth off reliever Brock Burke. Abreu had a three-run blast and matched his career high with seven RBIs, and Chas McCormick also went deep. The sweep put the reigning ...Sentencian a 8 años de prisión al expresidente de Guatemala Otto Pérez Molina por cargos de corrupción

Austin Hays’ 2023 season was beginning to mirror his 2022 one.Last season, the outfielder was perhaps the team’s best player through June with an .810 OPS. But he struggled throughout the second half as he battled through multiple injuries, including a wrist injury he suffered in late June. He hit just .219 after the injury.This year, Hays was even better in the first half. He wasn’t just the Orioles’ offensive leader, he was one of the best outfielders in the major leagues. His .314 batting average and .853 OPS earned him an All-Star Game nomination. Although, again, he stumbled to begin the second half as his numbers plummeted.But his monster performance Wednesday in Baltimore’s 10-3 win over the the Los Angeles Angels — 4-for-4 with a home run and four RBIs — was the latest example that Hays has broken out of his slump and is back to the hitter he was in the first half.The 28-year-old accounted for six of the Orioles’ 10 runs and on...Lowry: U.S. has issues, but it’s not the Roman Empire

An op-ed in The New York Times warns, as the headline puts it, “America is an empire in decline” and finds a precedent in imperial Rome.The piece, written by the co-author of a new book, “Why Empires Fall: Rome, America, and the Future of the West,” shows that the cottage industry in comparisons between the United States and Rome is as robust as ever.Both conservatives and progressives are prone to their own versions of this narrative, tending to emphasize either moral decline or imperial overstretch respectively.But the most important thing to know about us and our supposed imperial forebear is that we aren’t Rome and aren’t experiencing any of the most direct, spectacular causes of its fall.It is true that Rome’s fall — a long, messy process — didn’t unfold with the pleasing cinematic simplicity the popular imagination might believe; the extent of the barbarian population transfers have been exaggerated; and the eastern half of the empire lived on for another 1,000 years.Still, th...Latest news
