For proof, just see Bregman’s social media feed. Hours after Boston beat Houston 7-5 to even the best-of-seven series at a game each, Bregman shared video Monday on Instagram of the Astros hitting back-to-back-to-back home runs against Game 3 Red Sox starter Nathan Eovaldi from a game in June. “Lil pregame video work,” he wrote. Eovaldi will oppose Dallas Keuchel in Houston on Tuesday after Rick Porcello was used in relief during Game 2, when the Astros took their first loss of the postseason....

Three NFL general mangers told Bleacher Report on Thursday that they would not sign Grimes because of his wife’s antics. PHOTOS: NFL players’ wives, girlfriends | Free agency winners, losers The GMs fear Miko Grimes will make news off the field and be a distraction, according to the report, and she was the primary reason Miami asked her husband to take a pay cut and, ultimately, cut him. Miko has threatened reporters in the past, and she vulgarly criticized them again Wednesday on Twitter after her husband was cut....

The Reds had won four league games on the bounce before heading to west London, boosting hopes that a poor start to the campaign was little more than a blip. However, they reached half-time 2-0 down thanks to an Ibrahima Konate own goal and a Yoane Wissa strike, and were fortunate that the linesman’s flag spared them the concession of two further goals. Hopes of an unlikely comeback were fuelled shortly after the break when Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain netted and Darwin Nunez had a goal ruled out....

The visitors made it four consecutive league wins by recovering from a goal down to beat Leicester City at Anfield on December 30, helped by Foxes defender Wout Faes’ generosity as the hapless Belgium international scored two first-half own goals to gift the Reds a 2-1 victory. Brentford were more convincing on the same night, winning 2-0 at West Ham United to make it five matches unbeaten in the top flight with a second successive away triumph....

Brewers pitcher Corbin Burnes recorded his 52nd strikeout of the season Thursday against the Cardinals. He did that without having recorded a single walk, which surpassed Jansen’s mark of 51 straight strikeouts without a walk to begin a season. MORE: Padres fan starts brawl after punching out Rockies fan Burnes’ mark didn’t end at 52, either. He eventually extended the streak to 58, which set another MLB record. Prior to Thursday, the record for consecutive strikeouts without a walk at any time was 56 by Curt Schilling and Gerrit Cole....

Really cheap. It cost them only $1 to make the trade, according to The Associated Press. Seriously. One-dollar deals happen from time to time in MLB. In fact, one occurred earlier in 2021, when the Mets acquired Cameron Maybin from the Cubs for that price. And for the Brewers, in particular, they’re nothing new.

Williams slammed Abbott on Wednesday night’s episode of The 11th Hour for vetoing Senate Bill 474, known as the Safe Outdoor Dogs Act, which would have made it illegal to chain up dogs and leaving them outside without drinkable water, shelter or adequate shade. The bill would have also handed powers to rescue groups to scan pets for microchips and given tax breaks to pet rescue organizations. But, the Republican Governor said earlier this week in a statement: “Texas is no place for this kind of micro-managing and over-criminalization....

Decker, a three-time Olympian, was tied up by Finland defender Ronja Savolainen and fell with her left leg trapped with 10:58 left in the first period. She was unable to put weight on her leg and was wheeled off the ice on a stretcher. MORE: Olympic women’s hockey bracket, explained: How group play, standings work for 2022 tournament Decker was later seen with a walking boot on her left leg, with ESPN reporting she is out for the tournament....

Jennifer Toegel of Daytona Beach, Florida, told Newsweek she first began to specialize in wedding photography after finding herself drawn to “the drama of it all.” “I love my job, and creating dramatic wedding imagery,” she said. So she was the perfect person to have on hand when a photo shoot with newlyweds Amy Vargo and Kevin Cohen took a dramatic turn. When it comes to the most important elements of a good wedding, finding the right photographer ranks pretty highly....

In 2020, Brie Larson is most well-known for her role as Captain Marvel in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. But Larson isn’t a stranger to the gaming world, either, and not by a long shot. Animal Crossing: New Horizons has broken sales records, and Larson is one of many who fell victim to its addictive qualities during her lull of work. Aside from recently showing off an adorable new island tour to her fans and revealing which Animal Crossing villager is her favorite, she also appeared in the in-game talk show Animal Talk hosted by Gary Whitta on Twitch....

As tensions between Armenia and Azerbaijan over the Nagorno-Karabakh region erupted into war last fall, the United States was conspicuously absent from diplomatic efforts to quell the fighting. From the campaign trail, Biden called on the Trump administration to collaborate with European partners to de-escalate the conflict, which was accompanied with an expression of concern that American and European passivity granted Moscow a free diplomatic hand in the region. European and American involvement remained marginal, however, and the war in Nagorno-Karabakh ended with a Russian-brokered ceasefire....

Roshan Singh, who was working as the Physical Education instructor at a school, persuaded a local college to start the RJS boxing club for young people. He motivated many of his school students, including girls, to join. When he found that some students were hesitant or too poor, he gave them boxing gloves from his own money, just so they could get in and begin. The girls soon proved to be as good as the boys in the ring, but they had a tougher battle outside....

When Lewis Hamilton recorded the first of his eight British Grand Prix victories to date, part of the reason why his performance was so celebrated was because of the conditions. Hamilton showed superb skill on a track that carried pools of water at the start, and a decision to switch his McLaren tyres to intermediate-wet proved pivotal in the race. The winner changed his tyres again before the end, sticking with the same compound, and ended up crossing the line first by a colossal 68 seconds....

It’s not usual to have certain things happen. People get hit by golf balls; shots go awry; and photographers tick off players with heavy fingers on the trigger.

But that was as close as Johnson would get. After going 30 holes without a bogey, he bogeyed three straight on the front nine just as Sergio Garcia and Rickie Fowler, two other heralded players in search of their first major, were surging....

Mickelson had eight birdies and no bogeys through his first 17 holes. He was left with a 20-foot putt for birdie on 18 to shoot 62, but the ball took a late, hard right break and skimmed around the hole. Instead, Mickelson had the 28th round of 63 in a major championship. He held a three-shot lead over early finisher Patrick Reed and Martin Kaymer. Defending champion Zach Johnson was among nine players at 4 under....

While a TV character might get relief from the symptoms of hyperventilation using the method, it doesn’t always work in real life. It’s possible that the trick can work in some cases of true hyperventilation, but it’s not the ideal treatment. Even more importantly, in some instances, it may be dangerous. If you think you’re hyperventilating but are actually experiencing symptoms of a more serious medical condition, you may be putting your health—if not your life—at risk....

Game of the Week New Orleans Saints at New England Patriots (Sunday, 4:25 p.m., FOX). This road trip is a little different for Drew Brees. Brees, as both a Chargers and Saints quarterback, has never lost to Tom Brady’s Patriots. When the Saints won the Super Bowl in 2009, they ripped New England, 38-17, in Brees’ first 5-TD game in the NFL. While many teams fold in the face of Brady and Bill Belichick, there will be no fear or holding back from either Brees or Sean Payton....
