    The Democratic elites have spoken: Kamala Harris for President.
    The California Democratic Party apparatus has coalesced behind the Vice President. National Party leaders have as well.
    But as I wrote earlier this month: If Harris is the answer, you’re asking the wrong question.
    I get it. In the wake of President Joe Biden announcing he won’t seek a second term, Democratic leaders are trying to head off a nasty fight at the upcoming convention, continue fundraising and wage a campaign.

    Back to school: 5 ways to intentionally support your child’s well-being
    As the back-to-school season rolls around, it’s easy for parents to become engrossed in the logistics of preparing their children for the new academic year.
    The to-do lists are long, and the days are often packed with shopping for supplies, organizing schedules and planning extracurricular activities.
    However, amid all this busyness, there’s a crucial aspect that often gets overlooked: your child’s mental and emotional well-being. In today’s high-pressure world, it&r

    USC notebook: Eric Gentry starts in place of Mason Cobb at linebacker
    LOS ANGELES – A week earlier, his return to form began with an exclamation point, just seven seconds remaining on a last-gasp LSU try when Mason Cobb dove across midfield for a game-sealing pick.
    It was a fitting end to one of the finest games of Cobb’s Trojans career, the Oklahoma State transfer coming to USC in 2023 and instantly stepping in as the program’s leading tackler but beset by injury and a doomed run defense. He played with abandon against LSU, running through offen

    Dodgers break out early to beat Guardians
    LOS ANGELES – The Cleveland Guardians have the best bullpen in baseball this season. Opposing teams aren’t eager to get into that bullpen – unless maybe if it happens in the first inning.
    The Dodgers chased Guardians starter Gavin Williams with a six-run first inning, creating dueling bullpen games Saturday night. The Dodgers’ relief relay won the duel, stranding 10 Guardian baserunners on the way to a 7-2 victory.

    Tyler Anderson gets no help as Angels bullpen falters against Rangers
    ARLINGTON, Texas — Tyler Anderson has been one of the few consistent bright spots for the Angels in 2024, and he shined again Saturday night at Globe Life Field.
    But just as his record indicates, he did not receive a whole lot of help.
    Instead of celebrating his 11th win, the Angels were left with a 6-4 loss after the Texas Rangers rallied to score three runs in the seventh.

    ARLINGTON — Several Los Angeles Angels may have played their final games in 2024.
    The Angels placed outfielders Jo Adell and Kevin Pillar on the 10-day Injured List before Saturday’s game against the Texas Rangers.
    Both left Friday’s game early with injuries. Adell left after his at-bat in the second inning with a left oblique strain and Pillar, who replaced Adell, was pulled before the ninth with a left thumb sprain. An MRI after the game revealed the strain.

    Sabalenka, a 26-year-old from Belarus, adds this trophy to the two she earned at the Australian Open Open each of the past two seasons, also on hard courts. And the victory allowed her to leave Arthur Ashe Stadium in a far better mood than when she was the runner-up to Coco Gauff at the

    Villa Park football stays cool after rough start, rallies to beat Upland
    ORANGE — The Villa Park football team put together a brilliant game plan for its nonleague game against Upland on Saturday at El Modena High School.
    And quarterback Nate Lewis, who is also the Spartans’ kicker, did an excellent job executing that plan, with support from running back Dominic Ancich and the offensive line.
    After a back-and-forth battle, the game was decided on a 40-yard field goal from Lewis with 33 seconds remaining, lifting the Spartans to a 34-33 victory.

    NEW YORK — Taylor Fritz got choked up when it hit him that he had reached the U.S. Open final.
    His explanation: “I cry at happy endings of movies and not at sad stuff. That’s kind of just how I am.”
    Imagine what the 26-year-old Californian’s reaction would be if he actually were to take home the trophy by beating No. 1 Jannik Sinner of Italy on Sunday in Arthur Ashe Stadium. That would make Fritz the first American man to collect a Grand Slam title in 21 years.
