Hours before their winner-take-all Game 5 against the San Francisco Giants, the Dodgers called an audible, announcing Thursday morning that Corey Knebel, not Julio Urías, will start in the biggest game of their season.

latimes.com/sports/dodgers…
Urías is not injured or otherwise unavailable. He will pitch Thursday night at some point. This is just another example of Major League Baseball in 2021.

latimes.com/sports/dodgers…
Knebel will serve as an opener, forcing the Giants to either tailor their lineup, or at least the top of it, to face the right-hander to avoid giving the Dodgers the matchup advantage for an inning or yield a mismatch.

For nearly two weeks, an overpowering foul smell — likened to rotten eggs, a dead body and poop — has been wafting from the Dominguez Channel.

"It’s like we’re gonna be known as that stinky city now, and I don’t want that," says Otilia Marquez.

The stink has been the butt of plenty of online jokes: "If you can’t smell the air in Carson you DEFINITELY have COVID," one Twitter user quipped.

Others have suggested filling the Goodyear Blimp, which has a base in the city, with Febreze. Image
Los Angeles County officials say the smell is caused by hydrogen sulfide — a flammable, colorless gas known as “sewer gas” — coming from decaying vegetation in the channel that has built up because of the drought. Image
