In his first at-bat, he hit a solo home run. latimes.com/sports/dodgers…
Video journalist @mrmarkpotts is a ballpark food connoisseur, so it was only right that we gave him the #WorldSeries assignment of eating the Boomstick, a 2-feet long hot dog. Follow this thread for the full review.
It’s the third inning and the #Dodgers are going with their third pitcher of the night, Victor González.
Speaking of things that come in three: this video series by @mrmarkpotts eating the Boomstick. Here is part two.
The #Dodgers brought out Dustin May in the fourth inning to relieve Victor Gonzalez. May gave up two runs, as the Rays take a 3-0 lead in Game 2 of the #WorldSeries.
Brandon Lowe’s second home run of the night pushes the Rays’ lead to 5-0 in fifth inning. The #Dodgers are having a hard time hitting against Blake Snell.
Joe Buck and John Smoltz have spent an indordinate amount of time talking about football and the NFC East, which has the same number of wins as the Rays have runs in this game— five.
L.A. prosecutors have filed charges against Marc Ching, alleging that the Hollywood-backed animal activist practiced veterinary medicine without a license and engaged in deceptive advertising at his for-profit pet food store. latimes.com/california/sto…
The criminal case comes after a Times investigation uncovered years of complaints by veterinarians that Ching persuaded pet owners to abandon prescribed treatment regimens and instead give their ailing dogs and cats products he sells at his business. latimes.com/california/sto…
The Times also exposed troubling financial practices by Ching’s animal rescue charity, the Animal Hope and Wellness Foundation, and raised questions about his rescue efforts overseas. latimes.com/california/sto…
"Outnumbered" co-host Melissa Francis has been off the air for 2 weeks.
Francis had been working without a contract for nearly a year, a source told us. She had filed a gender-based pay discrimination claim against the company that has been in arbitration latimes.com/entertainment-…

Exclusive: More women have come forward to allege medical abuse and forced sterilization by Dr. Mahendra Amin, the primary gynecologist for an immigrant detention center in Georgia. latimes.com/politics/story…
Many victims are coming forward for the first time to report their alleged mistreatment since a nurse at the Irwin County Detention Center filed a whistleblower complaint last month. latimes.com/world-nation/s…
Records reviewed by a team of medical experts reveal an “alarming pattern” in which Amin subjected women to the gynecological surgeries that were “medically unnecessary” or “overly aggressive,” often without informed consent, the new report says latimes.com/politics/story…
Due to COVID-19, the income USC receiver Munir McClain earned reselling high-end sneakers slowed. Money was tight.
So he applied for Pandemic Unemployment Assistance.
In California, the PUA benefits promised a minimum benefit of $767 per week
McClain pocketed the money, with plans to invest it in a new apparel brand he started with his siblings, BeenFree. latimes.com/sports/usc/sto…
The NCAA does not bar athletes from earning income, either from outside businesses or through self-employment. Its rules do not cover unemployment benefits, and such assistance would not affect an athlete’s eligibility, an NCAA rep told the Times. latimes.com/sports/usc/sto…
Pressed for time and short of cash, President Trump will confront Joe Biden tonight in their second and final #Debate2020 as the incumbent’s faltering campaign seeks a last-minute comeback before election day latimes.com/politics/story…
California election rules prohibit clothing, signs and swag urging support for a specific candidate at polling places, but state officials have decided no such ban exists on items emblazoned with the slogan “Make America Great Again.”
Last month, state elections officials made clear that gear bearing the Trump slogan would not be considered synonymous with showing support for the president’s reelection. latimes.com/california/sto…
“Examples of campaign slogans or political movement slogans include but are not limited to: Make America Great Again (MAGA), Black Lives Matter (BLM), Keep America Great (KAG), Vote for Science, and Build Back Better,” said the Sept. 28 guidelines. latimes.com/california/sto…
