    Angels win in Houston after fan pulls ball from Mike Trout’s glove
    HOUSTON — The most memorable out of Tyler Anderson’s gem was an out that he didn’t even get.
    Anderson took a no-hitter into the sixth inning and recently homer happy Angels hit two more in a 4-1 victory over the Houston Astros on Saturday night.
    The lasting image of the game, though, will be an Astros fan grabbing a foul ball out of Mike Trout’s glove as he tried to make a catch.
    Trout leaped and reached over the wall to snag a ball hit by Yainer Diaz. Before he pulled th

    Drummond: PYLUSD trustees are looking at budget stabilization plan for district
    A “budget stabilization plan” designed to reduce or eliminate deficit spending in the Placentia-Yorba Linda Unified School District was presented to trustees at a meeting earlier this month.
    The plan, according to Joan Velasco, interim assistant superintendent of administrative services, relies heavily on personnel reductions because 85% of the district’s expenses are employee salaries and benefits.

    Why delinquent student loan borrowers may struggle to get a mortgage
    Delinquent student debt could soon create a new hurdle to homeownership in an already challenging marketplace.
    On May 5, the Department of Education will resume collections on defaulted federal student loans, according to its April 21 announcement. The pandemic stalled collections haven’t happened in March 2020.
    More than 5 million borrowers have not made a monthly student loan payment in over 360 days and sit in default. Four million borrowers are in late-stage delinquency (91-180 days).

    Crimea is a focus of discussions to end Russia’s war in Ukraine. Here’s why it’s so coveted
    By The Associated Press
    Russia’s illegal seizure of Crimea from Ukraine 11 years ago was quick and bloodless. But Kyiv — and most of the world — never recognized Moscow’s annexation of the strategic peninsula, which is now a major focus of U.S.-led efforts to end Russia’s war in Ukraine.

    LOS ANGELES — In the span of three days, the Kings-Oilers series has run the gamut.
    First, we wondered if the Kings had it in them to smash the Edmonton curse. Now, with a power play that is percolating at 50% (5 for 10 in the first two games) after going 0 for the series a year ago, we wonder if a roster with two of the game’s very best offensive players can hope to contain the upstarts from L.A., or whether there are other, less pleasant surprises still in store for the Kings once
