ST. LOUIS - Adam Wainwright has created many memories at Busch Stadium over the years, usually on the pitcher's mound. On Saturday evening, his second-to-last night as a big-league ballplayer, he treated fans once again, but elsewhere in the ballpark and without his baseball attire. Wainwright held a postgame concert at Freese's Landing after the St. Louis Cardinals' 15-6 victory over the Cincinnati Reds on Saturday. "I love you all so much. I'm so proud to be a St. Louis Cardinal for this long," said Wainwright to fans ahead of his big show.

Published Fri, 15 Nov 2024 20:32:32 GMT
Dear Amy: I am a 73-year-old man who was widowed four years ago.I’ve been dating “Maria” for over a year. She is 71 and was raised in Spain.Maria is a genuinely good person, and she is madly in love with me, to the point of smothering. (Her late husband was not very kind to her.)Maria has been professing her love for me since we began texting before our first date. (She is a neighbor of some friends of mine and apparently had her eye on me for a while.)She says I am the man of her dreams and that she wants to spend the rest of her life with me. And she says this with total earnestness and wide-eyed schoolgirl innocence.I do feel love for her, though not as intensely as she does for me. I’ve just never felt that special “click” with her.My dilemma is this: I want to date other women. I want to find one that I really click with and without having to always explain basic Americana (like baseball, “The Wizard of Oz”, the Emmy Awards, etc.). Maria never really imm...El invierno llega a Ucrania, pero Kyiv adapta sus tácticas

(CNN) — Ucrania pronto enfrentará su segundo invierno en guerra, y las audaces campañas de hace un año que lograron avances significativos en Járkiv y Jersón parecen un recuerdo lejano.El Ejército ucraniano está librando ahora una guerra de intenso desgaste contra fuerzas rusas más obstinadas y más grandes a lo largo de un frente de casi 1.000 kilómetros. Todavía sufre una escasez desesperada de poder aéreo y la acción ofensiva se verá interrumpida por el deterioro del tiempo.Es probable que los rusos lancen otra campaña para paralizar la infraestructura energética de Ucrania, hundiendo a su pueblo en un oscuro invierno. En el campo de batalla, los rusos se han adaptado. El presupuesto de defensa del próximo año será un 70% mayor que el de este año. Están en esto a largo plazo.Pero los ucranianos también se están adaptando, después de un comienzo vacilante de la contraofensiva.Como argumentaron Franz-Stefan Gady y Michael Kofman en The Economist, “la capacidad de los soldados ...Reportan al menos siete muertos en un incendio en una discoteca en Murcia

GUIDONIA MONTECELIO, Italy (AP) — Europe has history on its side as the Sunday singles matches begin in the Ryder Cup. No team has ever lost a five-point lead on the final day. Europe needs to win only four points from 12 matches to regain the Ryder Cup.The first match is compelling enough — Scottie Scheffler against Jon Rahm. Not only have they traded places as No. 1 in the world this year, this is a rematch from two years ago at Whistling Straits. Scheffler birdied the opening four holes in a 4-and-3 victory.Scheffler is No. 1 in the world. The last No. 1 player to lose in singles was Rahm two years ago.Also worth watching is Patrick Cantlay against Justin Rose. The European crowd has targeted Cantlay for not wearing a cap amid an unsubstantiated report that it’s a form of protest for not being paid. Cantlay said there’s no truth to that and simply the hat isn’t a good fit for him.Cantlay had the last word Saturday night. He birdied the last three holes to at lea...Flood Watch in Effect this Sunday

We’re nearing the light at the end of the tunnel as we welcome October with some big weather changes arriving early this week, but before then more storms will be possible this Sunday.With the potential for heavy rain with totals as high as 6 inches in isolated areas leading to the risk for flash flooding in spots, the National Weather Service has issued a Flood Watch for metro and coastal Miami-Dade and Broward Counties through 8PM this evening.The morning will feature sunshine with scattered showers rolling onshore. It’s not until the afternoon when it should turn more active with scattered to numerous thunderstorms developing across the area. This is when the flood threat will be the highest. It’s not until the evening gradually improving conditions should build in with fewer showers and storms.Overnight tonight will continue to feature the risk for some showers, especially by the coast, as a weak front crosses through the area and heads south.By Monday, South F...Revolution become 10th team in MLS history to go unbeaten in their first 15 home matches of a season

BALTIMORE (AP) — Ryan Mountcastle hit a tiebreaking RBI double in the seventh inning and scored on an infield hit to lead the AL East champion Baltimore Orioles to their 101st victory of the season, 5-2 over the last-place Boston Red Sox 5-2 on Saturday night.Baltimore (101-60), which hosts an AL Division Series starting Oct. 7, is finishing its winningest season since going 102-57 in 1979.“I want our guys to understand how great of an accomplishment that is,” manager Brandon Hyde said. “We won every series against the AL East. That’s an incredible accomplishment as well with all the talent, how good the teams are in our division.”After Boston’s Kutter Crawford allowed one hit in six innings, Josh Winckowski (4-4) gave up a single to Adley Rutschman leading off the seventh. Pinch-runner Jorge Mateo stole second standing up, and Mountcastle doubled to right with two outs for a 1-0 lead.Heston Kjerstad’s infield single that second baseman Pablo Reyes couldn’t field enabled Mount...Patriots-Cowboys preview: Mac Jones, Dak Prescott and what to watch for Sunday

Two years ago, the Cowboys pulled away from Foxboro with a shocking overtime win.The Pats had dropped a 35-29 finish to fall to 2-4. They eventually recovered and reached the playoffs. But somehow, now at 1-2, their future feels less certain than it did then.Back then Mac Jones was a rookie fresh off the first fourth-quarter comeback of his career amid one of the greatest seasons ever for a first-year quarterback. Today, Jones still lacks a signature win, with only one fourth-quarter comeback on his resume. The Patriots have again been installed as underdogs against Dallas in their first meeting since then.Dropping to 1-3 would only amplify pressure on Jones and the team, which escaped the Jets last weekend only by the mercy of a missed Hail Mary. A win in Dallas, of course, would represent much more.It would mean a statement made for a team proving itself in a pressurized season. Here’s what should make or break the Patriots on Sunday.When the Patriots runHello, old friend.Ez...NFL Notes: How the Patriots learned Christian Gonzalez is a budding star
Published Fri, 15 Nov 2024 20:32:32 GMT
Late in the first half of their loss to Miami in Week 2, the Patriots’ defensive staff approached rookie Christian Gonzalez with a laughable task: shadow 7-time Pro Bowler, 4-time All-Pro and likely future Hall of Fame wideout Tyreek Hill.At the time, Gonzalez was the only healthy cornerback atop their depth chart. The Dolphins led 10-3 and were about to open a 2-minute drill. That drive eventually finished with a touchdown, one Miami scored by pulling Hill away from Gonzalez and pitting him against safety Kyle Dugger.The Pats then trotted into their locker room, frustrated by their 14-point deficit; a starkly different feeling than what Gonzalez’s teammates experienced upon hearing his new assignment.“I was like, ‘Oh, here we go,'” Dugger remembered. “Because I know how talented (Gonzalez) is.”“Honestly, it was a no-flinch situation,” said Pats safety Jalen Mills. “All right, let’s do this.
