• Bottom of lineup sparks Dodgers to victory over A’s

  15-05-2025 07:03 via ocregister.com
  
  LOS ANGELES — Even a lineup with some of the top players of a generation could use a little assistance now and then.
  The Dodgers turned to Hyeseong Kim for a home run on Wednesday and Miguel Rojas for a pinch-hit RBI double as the No. 9 spot delivered in a 9-3 victory over the visiting Athletics.
  Shohei Ohtani hit his own home run and Andy Pages and Max Muncy also went deep, but it was the last spot in the order that was a difference-maker Wednesday, with more help for the big bats on the

  LOS ANGELES — Rotating forwards Cengiz Ünder and Jeremy Ebobisse into the starting lineup paid off Wednesday for the Los Angeles Football Club.
  Each attacker scored, as did fellow forward Denis Bouanga, and LAFC stymied the surging Seattle Sounders, 4-0, splitting the regular-season series with the team that beat the Black & Gold in last year’s MLS Cup playoffs. Midfielder Yaw Yeboah also connected on his first goal with LAFC (6-4-3, 21 points), punctuating the club’s

  15-05-2025 06:07 via ocregister.com
  
  SAN DIEGO — The Angels’ bats went silent again.
  After a couple of weeks of improving offense, the Angels lost, 5-1, to the Padres on Wednesday night, dropping the rubber game of the series.
  The Angels had scored at least four runs in seven of their previous 10 times, but this game brought back memories of the recent three-week stretch when their offense could barely muster a whimper.
  The Angels had four hits, including Taylor Ward’s 10th home run of the season.

  Three years after a shooting at a Laguna Woods church left one dead and five others wounded, the suspected killer has signaled a not-guilty-by-reason-of-insanity defense in state court and the question of whether to seek the death penalty appears to be on the minds of prosecutors in federal court.

However, homeless housing providers can be compelled to accept residents who are actively using hard drugs.
