Then the Pittsburgh left fielder really did some damage. Dickerson hit two first-pitch home runs, rookie Nick Kingham overcame another rain delay to pitch six shutout innings and drive in two runs, and the Pirates beat the Reds 6-2 Saturday for their season-high eighth straight win. Dickerson homered on the first pitches he saw from DeSclafani (4-3) in the third and fifth innings for his seventh career multihomer game, helping the Pirates to their longest winning streak since an eight-game stretch Sept....

Speaking at the Municipal Transit Utility in La Crosse, Biden mentioned that he used to drive a bus when he was studying law at Syracuse University in New York. It’s a story he has told several times. The president was introduced by a bus driver named Laurie and addressed her as “one bus driver to another.” He went on to tout the bipartisan infrastructure bill recently agreed between Democrats and some Senate Republicans....

During an appearance on Barstool’s “Going Deep” podcast, Harrison claimed Mike Tomlin gave him “an envelope” following the hit on Massaquoi, suggesting the Steelers coach covered Harrison’s $75,000 fine from the NFL. (It was later reduced to $50,000.) MORE: Tomlin “excited” about having Ben Roethlisberger back at QB “I ain’t gonna lie to you, when that happened, right?” Harrison said. “The G-est thing Mike Tomlin ever did, he handed me an envelope after that....

The Deadman debuted in WWE in 1990, and his character quickly became a significant attraction. The following year, he wrestled Hogan at Survivor Series for the WWF Championship. During the match, Ric Flair appeared and slid a chair into the ring, allowing Taker to deliver a Tombstone to his opponent for the win. During the spot, The Hulkster allegedly suffered an injury after his head hit the chair. The Phenom rewatched the footage and realized that Hogan’s head seemingly never hit the chair....

Strzok’s comments come a month after the FBI raided Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort residence where they found confidential and classified documents. Attorney General Merrick Garland confirmed last month that he personally approved the decision to seek a search warrant for the raid.

Argentine football icon Diego Maradona has denied feeling depressed after the death of his father, saying that he will go “for FIFA” in a video he posted on Facebook. “I know that they’re saying lots of things. Nobody can know what I’m feeling inside over the death of my father. They cut off a love from me that I thought was eternal and that can’t be forgotten so easily,” Maradona said, reports Efe....

Costa will likely depart Chelsea for good in the next week as transfer deadline looms after a summer of controversy which sees him in a self-imposed exile from the London club. And, while Morata’s display wasn’t perfection, it forms part of a promising start to life in English football for the 24-year-old. The Blues dominated throughout the match but were slow on the break, while Morata lost a few physical battles with Everton’s bruising three-man defence....

But, now times have taken an about turn, Mourinho got himself fired. Ole Gunnar Solskjaer was appointed as the Manchester United caretaker manager. If the last two matches are of any indication, Pogba is playing better football under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. Manchester United has won their both matches under Gunnar Solskjaer where they have played more eye-catching football. Pogba has turned out to be the protagonist character in both matches providing two assists and two goals....

Thanks to a quicker and bouncier pitch, India were restricted to 148 for five. Despite a poor start, the hosts were able to chase it down with two balls to spare. Kuldeep Yadav returned 0-34 from his four overs and was rendered ineffective, after England’s pacers had reduced India to 22-3 with a short ball plan. Conditions were different today. Kuldeep’s a very good bowler and he’ll bowl well the majority of the time....

Digimon Survive Part 5 opens with a flashback/nightmare sequence of Shuuji interacting with his father. Seems he has some rather huge confidence issues, likely reinforced by his father’s disdain for him and abandonment of him. RELATED: Digimon Survive: How To Befriend Agumon School - Opening After Shuuji wakes, the game cuts to the group meeting in the Cafeteria, as per normal, to discuss their plans. Minoru reckons the best course of action is pursuing the kidnappers to question them about the boundary between worlds and the Caretaker, but opinions are understandably split when it comes to doing something that risky....

That’s Branson’s kind of talk. Over the last 34 years he’s built a £4 billion-a-year enterprise and one of the world’s best-known brands by playing the eternal upstart. Nearing 50, he’s still the consumer’s open-collared champion, taking on the corporate suits. His business choices aren’t always well thought out. But lately he’s shrugged off questions about cash flow at sprawling, privately held Virgin Group and devised a line of attack that seems perfect for him: cyberspace....

Whyte (28-3, 19 KOs) has taken part in PPV main events against the likes of Anthony Joshua, Joseph Parker, Derek Chisora (the rematch), Oscar Rivas, and, most recently, Tyson Fury. On November 26, Whyte will face unbeaten American Jermaine Franklin at the Wembley Arena in London. The main event, plus undercard action, will be broadcast by DAZN. While the money for this encounter will earn Whyte significantly less than what he’s accustomed to as a PPV attraction, a victory will position the Jamaican-born Londoner for a money-spinning rematch with Joshua....

On Saturday, craving a little miso myself, and figuring I could be as daring as the clerks and shoppers in the usual lunch crowd, I went to Itsu. But by then the door was locked and a scrawled sign was posted where the menu used to be: “As a result of the Russia/KGB business, we are temporarily closed while Scotland Yard investigate. Sorry!!” Litvinenko had died. The poison used on him was determined, at last, to be the radioactive isotope polonium 210....

The winning numbers for Wednesday’s game were 11, 15, 43, 55 and 61, while the Powerball was 10 and the Power Play was 3x. The latest round saw no winners of the top prize, but one player in California (who didn’t purchase the Power Play option for $1) matched the five white balls, winning the second prize of $1 million. Two other second prize winners (one in Connecticut and another in Pennsylvania) did opt for the Power Play, which raised each of their earnings to $2 million....

The Left quickly began using the tragedy as an excuse to take revenge on its political enemies for daring to support President Trump and his policies. At the top of the list is the Left’s favorite whipping boy: evangelical Christians. Never-Trumpers predictably and enthusiastically joined the Left and other media elites who piously blame all the rubes who eat at Olive Garden for falling for Donald Trump’s rhetoric. Washington Post contributor and former George W....

Although Patrice Evra’s performances so far have meant that Englishman would likely have been surplus to requirements at Old Trafford, there is still a growing feeling that United might live to regret not signing Baines, who is four years the Frenchman’s junior. United’s summer dealings were far from ideal, and their pursuit of the Evertonian is one that left most fans looking bemused. The fact was that Baines favoured a move to United, but a doomed joint bid for Marouane Fellaini and him meant that they finally had to split their bids at the last minute and ended up paying £4....

The highly-anticipated - and much-delayed - movie is based on a novel by Joyce Carol Oates and contains fictionalized versions of events from Monroe’s life. Blonde explores Monroe’s marriage to Arthur Miller but also reimagines some other romantic connections, including those with Charlie Chaplin’s son, Charlie “Cass” Chaplin Jr., and actor Edward G. Robinson’s son, Eddy Robinson, Jr. While Blonde’s director, Andrew Dominik, has recently described the movie as “all fiction,” fans are still curious as to what the truth is about Monroe and Chaplin Jr....
