Padres get by Giants in 10th inning again

Padres get by Giants in 10th inning again

Reuters7 days ago

June 4 - Manny Machado's fourth hit tied the game in the ninth inning, Jake Cronenworth delivered a two-out RBI single in the 10th and the San Diego Padres stunned the host San Francisco Giants with a second straight extra-inning win Tuesday night, 3-2.
Cronenworth's hit came off the fifth Giants pitcher, Spencer Bivens (1-2), who had retired Gavin Sheets and Xander Bogaerts with extra-inning runner Jackson Merrill advancing only as far as third base.
Cronenworth then hit Bivens' next pitch into right field for what turned out to be the game-winner.
The Giants got the potential tying run to third with one out in the 10th, via a sacrifice by Casey Schmitt. But Jeremiah Estrada, pitching for the second consecutive night, retired Heliot Ramos on a grounder to a drawn-in Bogaerts at shortstop before getting Jung Hoo Lee to ground to shortstop to end it.
Yuki Matsui (1-1), who pitched a scoreless ninth, was credited with the win. Estrada notched his second save.
Trailing 2-0 and down to their final out in the ninth, the Padres rallied into a tie on Machado's bases-loaded, two-run single off Giants closer Camilo Doval.
For the second consecutive night, the Giants saw a shutout pitching effort from their starter go for naught. Landen Roupp, who had pitched into the seventh just twice previously in his two-year career, allowed just four hits and two walks in 6 1/3 shutout innings. He struck out five.
Roupp pitched much of the game with a lead thanks to Ramos' 11th homer of the season, in the third off Padres starter Ryan Bergert. Patrick Bailey had led off the inning with a double.
Making his first big-league start, Bergert kept the visitors in the game by limiting the Giants to just those two runs in five innings. He allowed six hits and two walks, while striking out two.
Machado, who went 4-for-4 with a walk and two RBIs, and late-game San Diego substitute Brandon Lockridge, who had two singles, were the only players with multiple hits. In winning their fourth straight over the Giants this season, the Padres did not record an extra-base hit.

Josh Allen breaks his silence on wedding to Hailee Steinfeld and shows off his ring to reporters

Josh Allen has broken his silence on his wedding to Hailee Steinfeld, telling reporters at Bills practice that it was 'the most important decision' of his life. Allen and Steinfeld tied the knot late last month with a beautiful ceremony at the San Ysidro ranch in Montecito, California. And Allen returned to Bills minicamp on Tuesday showing off a black wedding band as he spoke about a huge offseason which has also seen him win the MVP and sign a record-setting contract with $250million guaranteed. 'They've all been big, none other than marrying my best friend, and she makes everything easier,' he told reporters of the accomplishments. 'So I don't really focus on the other stuff. That was the most important decision I'll make in my life, and I made the right one.' Allen was in good spirits during the press conference but was otherwise hesitant to talk too much about his wedding day, which he and Steinfeld largely kept under wraps beforehand. Nonetheless, he proudly flashed his wedding band as he took to the field for Bills minicamp in Orchard Park, New York. Allen's lavish wedding took place at the celebrity favorite San Ysidro ranch, which has previously seen Chris Pratt, Gwyneth Paltrow and Jessica Simpson marry on its grounds. Along with Steinfeld's dad Peter, her mom Cheri and brother Griffin were among the guests looking on, as were Allen's parents Joel and LaVonne, and his siblings Jason, Nicala and Makenna. The couple were seen celebrating saying 'I do' with a kiss in front of a clapping crowd of guests, with a dark suit-clad Allen seen looking proud as he made his way back down the aisle. Allen and Steinfeld were engaged during the Bills bye week in November, when the quarterback proposed on a California cliff overlooking the Pacific Ocean. The two were first linked in the spring of 2023, when they were photographed dining together in New York City. Steinfeld has since begun attending Bills home games, and the couple hosted a Halloween party. The couple also walked the red carpet together at the NFL Honors ceremony in February, when Allen credited Steinfeld upon accepting the league's MVP award. While the couple did their best to keep details of their special day private, Allen's teammate Dion Dawkins previously revealed the date in an on-air TV slip-up. Allen's black band was visible as he practiced for the Bills on Tuesday at minicamp Speaking on Good Morning Football back in March, Dawkins was asked about the wedding and immediately began to share more details than perhaps the bride and groom would have liked. 'Josh Allen is one of those guys and he sealed that deal,' Dawkins told presenter Kyle Brandt, before adding: 'Soon to come, May 31st.' The budding presenter - who is good friends with Allen himself - then looked back in shock at the announcement of the date. After Buffalo's mandatory minicamp wraps up on Thursday, Allen will be able to enjoy some time off with Steinfeld before training camp begins on July 24.

FACT FOCUS: A Craigslist ad is not proof of paid protesters in LA. It was posted as a prank

As demonstrations in Los Angeles over immigration raids unfolded in recent days, social media users falsely cited a Craigslist ad as evidence that protesters had been paid to participate. 'We are forming a select team of THE TOUGHEST dudes in the area,' the ad, which is no longer live, read. 'This unit will be activated only when the situation demands it — BUT YOU GET PAID EVERY WEEK NO MATTER WHAT. high-pressure, high-risk, no room for hesitation. We need individuals who do not break, panic, or fold under stress and are basically kickass dudes.' It offered $6,500-$12,500 in compensation per week. But the ad was a prank, it is not related to the Los Angeles protests. Here's a closer look at the facts. CLAIM: A Craigslist ad seeking 'the toughest badasses in the city' is proof that Los Angeles demonstrations over immigration raids are made up of paid protesters. THE FACTS: This is false. The ad, which appeared in Craigslist's Los Angeles section for general labor jobs, was bait for a prank show and had nothing to do with the protests in Los Angeles, the ad's creator told The Associated Press. It was posted on Thursday, the day before the protests began. In a livestreamed episode on Friday, the show's hosts called and spoke with people who responded to the ad. 'I literally had no idea it was ever going to be connected to the riots. It was a really weird coincidence,' said Joey LaFleur, who posted the ad on Craigslist. The ad was developed as part of a new prank show called 'Goofcon1,' said LaFleur, who hosts the podcast with Logan Quiroz. On their show Friday, the day protests began, they spoke live on the phone with people who responded during Goofcon1's third episode. LaFleur noted during the episode that he also posted a more 'militaristic' version of the ad in Craigslist's Austin section, but didn't get many responses. Screenshots of the ad were used in social media posts on multiple platforms, cited as proof that those involved in the Los Angeles protests had been paid. The posts gained tens of thousands of likes, shares, and views. 'CALIFORNIA RIOT IS A FUNDED OPERATION,' reads one X post sharing the ad. 'Destabilizing the Trump administration and the United States in general is the goal. Then, they receive billions of federal funding to 'fix' the damage and pocket the money.' A TikTok video sharing the ad viewed approximately 14,100 times called protesters 'paid agitators' who are turning 'what was initially a peaceful protest of just marching into a full-blown riot.' Others pointed to the ad as evidence that the protests 'aren't organic' or have been faked by Democrats. After screenshots of the ad spread on social media, LaFleur posted about the confusion on his Instagram story multiple times. 'Accidentally goofed the entire nation on the latest @goofcon1,' one post reads. In another, he muses: 'I don't really know what to do with any of this. I guess get on Newsmax, or something. If I get on Newsmax, that could be funny.' False claims about paid protesters regularly spread around demonstrations, especially those that attract national or international attention. Similar false claims spread widely in 2020 during demonstrations over George Floyd's death at the hands of Minneapolis police. ___
