The Red Sox are 76-69 entering Wednesday’s game, nine games out of the second AL wild card with 17 to play, a disappointing follow-up to 2018’s 108-win team that beat the Dodgers in five games to capture its fourth title in 15 years. “No doubt, it has been a difficult season for all of us,” Kennedy said Tuesday on WEEI. “But we’re really confident in Alex Cora.” Cora will get a new boss this winter when the Red Sox hire a replacement for Dombrowski, who hired Cora in November 2017....
Federer then arrived two hours late for his post-match press conference, claiming he needed to digest the defeat before speaking to the media.

Speaking to Eurosport, Alex Corretja said the Swiss’ negative body language throughout the match was a worrying sign in the lead up to Wimbledon, which begins on Monday....
Maybe in theory. But in reality, this team has to have Alex Morgan.

Aunque ya hace años que Alexia ha demostrado su talento en los campos de España y Europa, no fue hasta noviembre de 2022 cuando llegó su reconocimiento internacional con el Balón de Oro, convirtiéndose en la primera futbolista española en obtener dicho premio. Ahora, ya tiene dos. Puede que el futuro de la jugadora esté un poco en el aire y que no sepamos cuándo la vamos a volver a ver dando toques al balón....
Wenger drops hint over future Chile star Alexis netted his 26th goal in all competitions this season in the 4-1 rout of Stoke City on Saturday, while his exquisite pass for Mesut Ozil to score established him as the only player to have double figures in the Premier League for goals and assists this term. The 27-year-old’s future beyond the end of the campaign remains in doubt, even though Wenger remains confident he will sign an extension to a deal that expires in 2018....
As a result, more and more players will be likely to choose United in Online Seasons. They are already a five-star team, and have upgraded from 84-rated Henrikh Mkhitaryan to 88-rated Sanchez. The Chile international is equal or better to Mkhitaryan in the majority of his stats, aside from defending, but is unlikely to be utilised in a role that requires him to track back too often in FIFA 18....
A 2-2 stalemate at Athletic Bilbao last time out in the league demonstrated Atletico’s character as they netted a late leveller, but they were dominated from start to finish at Alaves and looked utterly toothless in attack. Atletico pair Saul Niguez and Koke were often overrun, particularly in the first half, with Alaves enjoying complete control and going close to breaking the deadlock on numerous occasions. Deyverson was particularly culpable for wasting two fine opportunities, the second of which came just after Victor Laguardia struck the visitors’ crossbar....
His toughest opponents in WWE: “All of them. But if I had to give you two names, I would say John Cena would the number one. He is the face of the WWE and that is a man who never stops.

Known for his nagging medium-pace and his hard-hitting down the order, Morkel last represented South Africa in 2015, during a T20I against India. He played 58 ODIs, 50 T20Is and a solitary Test in an international career spread over a decade. Part of a cricketing family, Albie followed his brother Morne Morkel into retirement - Morne had announced his departure from international cricket last year.

Alcatel OneTouch Go Watch review: Price and availability Alcatel OneTouch hasn’t announced UK pricing information for the OneTouch Go Watch yet, but it’s set to be around 129 Euros so you can expect it to be pretty cheap. The slightly more premium Alcatel OneTouch Watch is only £99 so that should give you some idea of how low the price tag will be. It’ll hit the shelves at some point in November, but there’s no exact release date just yet....
Okay, okay. We get it. We know The Royals are offensively awful. We know the relievers aren’t nearly as solid as they were last year. We’ve all heard it…a lot…blah, blah, blah. We know Mike Moustakas is batting .156 while leading the team with 4 home runs. That Billy Butler and his 106 at bats have produced 4 doubles and one home run. And let’s not forget Bruce Chen who can’t pitch into the 5th inning!...

Many speculated that the movie would never be completed after cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and director Joel Souza were shot, but producers said Monday that the Western will merely take “a pause” from filming. “Although our hearts are broken, and it is hard to see beyond the horizon, this is, at the moment, a pause rather than an end,” an email from the producers to the crew read....
An investigation of the deadly shooting recently revealed that Baldwin had discussed his choice of weapon with Rust armorer Hannah Gutierrez-Reed via email, according to an affidavit from Detective Alexandria Hancock, which was included in a search warrant issued to acquire Baldwin’s cell phone on Thursday. “Alec said since they were in rehearsal, he assumed he had an empty gun, therefore when he shot the gun, Haylena [sic] was right in front of him,” Hancock wrote....
