So what do you know. We made it through April. What a bizarre month.
Taylor Ward outhomered a guy who hit 54 homers last year (Matt Olson). Maikel Garcia had more extra-base hits than Vlad Guerrero Jr.
Ronel Blanco has been the best starting pitcher on the Astros. The reigning National League Cy Young Award winner (Blake Snell) has been the worst starting pitcher on the Giants.

If you’ve ever cooked a complex meal with someone, you know the level of coordination required. Someone dices this, someone sautés that, as you dance around holding knives and hot pans.

How might a robot handle this type of interaction?
Research presented in late 2023 at the Neural Information Processing Systems, or NeurIPS, conference, in New Orleans, offers some clues.
COOPERSTOWN, N.Y. — There were Adrián Beltré and Joe Mauer. This was their first Hall of Fame election. They won’t need a second. On Tuesday, they became baseball’s newest first-ballot Hall of Famers. And that stamps them as baseball royalty, connected forever to this special stamp of greatness.
Beltré reeled in 95.1 percent of the vote. That’s the same percentage as a guy named Babe Ruth. If he ever needs to impress people at a party over the next 40
This year’s post-Christmas fixtures marked the halfway point of the Premier League season, and we were served up plenty of festive treats.
Manchester United battled back from two goals down to beat Aston Villa in a five-goal thriller at Old Trafford, while Liverpool maintained their title challenge with a 2-0 win at Burnley.
But it was a dismal Boxing Day for Newcastle as they lost 3-1 at home to Nottingham Forest, with Chris Wood scoring a hat-trick to haunt his
It looked like group therapy. One late summer day, Sadiq Khan, the mayor of London, sat with a group of faith leaders and clean-air campaigners in a small circle in the near-empty hall of a suburban church.
The moment was meant to be one of celebration, for Khan and for London. He was marking the creation of the largest clean air zone in the Western world through the expansion of restrictions on polluting cars to cover the entire British capital,

William appears at the end of the bed and the camera pans to a close up of
A strange thing happens when you hit your 60s. Having sailed through life in pretty good shape, suddenly your formerly healthy friends start falling apart – and you’re not looking so tip top either.
One friend’s breast cancer has returned, another had a massive heart attack and his veins are propped up with stents, two have prostate cancer (though thankfully caught early) and I’ve lost count of the number of hip and knee ops everyone’s now having.
Then there are
Theirs is a love story of our times. They met in a Liverpool nightclub. He was a footballer, on the way to becoming an England legend and national treasure; she was a model, and future Strictly champion.
Who would have guessed that, 18 years and four children later, Peter Crouch and Abbey Clancy would still be not only enjoying domestic bliss, but giving relationship advice?

Another dramatic weekend of Serie A action has thrown up yet more talking points.
Fierce rivals Inter Milan and AC Milan extended their perfect starts to the season with both clubs boasting three wins from three and topping the table at this early stage.
Jose Mourinho’s Roma, however, find themselves in the relegation zone and without their first victory this campaign. Again, they lacked quality in several crucial areas.
Mail Sport‘s ALVISE CAGNAZZO talks us through 10 things we
There are many astonishing things about Sally Challen’s (second) marriage, but it was the delivery of the vows that startled guests in the church.
‘When we’d gone to see the vicar about the arrangements, Dell said he didn’t want me to promise to ‘love, honour and obey’ him, so he asked if we could both say ‘love, honour and play’ instead,’ recalls Sally.
‘The vicar didn’t see why not, so we did. There were a few quizzical looks in the
