SILVERSTONE, England (AP) — Lando Norris nearly delighted the British Grand Prix crowd with pole position. There was just one problem: Max Verstappen.“It’s always Max. He always ruins everything for everyone,” Norris joked after the Dutch driver beat his time for his fifth pole position in a row on Saturday.The British crowd roared in celebration when Norris briefly took over the top spot late in the qualifying session, before Verstappen went yet faster to take it back by .241 seconds.The result may be routine in Formula One — Red Bull has taken pole in nine out of 10 races — but it followed a session of tension, another failure for Verstappen’s teammate Sergio Pérez, and a moment of jeopardy for the Dutch driver himself.Verstappen made contact with the pit wall and broke his front wing while leaving his garage during a red-flag stoppage in the first part of qualifying. “I just understeered and it just didn’t grip,” he told the team over the radio.Red Bull replaced the wing an...As the summer heats up, so does the job market for teens

This week’s jobs report showed there are far more openings than people to fill them. Now, more businesses are turning to teens to fill open roles this summer.“I don’t know really any industry that’s not actively hiring right now, for big and small roles,” said Patrick Morrissey, the Chief Growth Officer with recruiting firm HireVue.With increasing minimum wages in the D.C. area, your teenager can take advantage and make money while also gaining valuable experience that can pay off in the future, according to Morrissey. He said customers who use HireVue are willing to pay more for better talent.“What we hear from our customers … they’re willing to pay more because they just need good talent and need that talent to show up to work,” Morrissey said.While most summer jobs for high school and college students tend to be waiting tables, working cash registers or babysitting, Morrissey said that is not the case in this job climate.“From a teen pers...Iowa Republicans set Jan. 15 for their caucuses, the first election-year contest as the GOP picks a presidential nominee

DETROIT (AP) — The Detroit Tigers juggled their roster before Saturday’s game against the Toronto Blue Jays.Detroit activated outfielder Riley Greene from the injured list. Greene, who was sidelined since May 31 with a stress reaction in his left fibula, led the team in most offensive categories before the injury.The Tigers also activated pitcher Beau Brieske (elbow) from the 60-day injured list. He went 3-6 with a 4.19 ERA in 15 starts last season, but will pitch out of the bullpen at this point.Detroit optioned pitcher Alex Faedo to Triple-A Toledo after he gave up seven runs in Friday’s 12-2 loss to the Blue Jays.The Tigers also designated infielder Jonathan Schoop for assignment to make room for Greene on the active roster and Brieske on the 40-man roster. The 31-year-old is hitting .213 with no home runs in 55 games this season.___AP MLB: https://apnews.com/hub/mlb and https://twitter.com/AP_SportsSourceLIV Golf London Par Scores

Published Tue, 05 Nov 2024 05:41:10 GMT
The Chicago Cubs and shortstop Dansby Swanson are playing it safe with his injury.Ahead of the four-day All-Star break beginning Monday, Swanson went on the 10-day injured list before Saturday’s 6-3 loss at Yankee Stadium because of his bruised left heel. The Cubs recalled infielder Miles Mastrobuoni, who started Saturday at third base.The move is retroactive to Thursday, setting up Swanson to return as soon as July 16 versus the Boston Red Sox at Wrigley Field. Swanson hasn’t played since he sustained the injury Wednesday in Milwaukee.“I mean, unfortunately we’re in this position,” Swanson said Saturday. “I feel like it was almost in a way like a good insurance policy to not lose some of the retroactive days. So it stinks, but we have to make the best decision possible for the group.”The timing sets up Swanson to potentially miss only two games after the All-Star break — if he doesn’t need any more time for his heel to recover.A...Giancarlo Stanton’s two-homer day fuels Yankees’ offense in win over Cubs

Between injuries and offensive struggles, little has gone Giancarlo Stanton’s way this season. That wasn’t the case in the Yankees’ 6-3 win over the Cubs on Saturday, though.Stanton carried the Yankees’ offense while enjoying his first multi-dinger game since May 12 of last year with two very different home runs.The first, a 118.1-mph solo shot in the opening frame, traveled 447 feet to the Audi Club in left field. The luxury seats, which are behind glass, hang above the second deck.Cubs left fielder Ian Happ took a few steps in reaction to the moonshot, but he quickly paused to watch the ball sail over his head.While Stanton’s initial blast had an expected batting average of 1.000, his second home run was the ultimate porch job.After review, Stanton came away with a two-run homer by lofting a pitch 322 feet to right field. He doinked the ball off the very bottom of the right field foul pole. Hit at 91.3 mph, the expected batting average was just .050.T...Red Sox Notebook: Alex Cora cautiously optimistic about Tanner Houck’s progress

Less than a month after taking a line drive to the face, Tanner Houck is healing, working out, and ready to start throwing next week.The 27-year-old right-hander suffered a facial fracture while pitching against the Yankees on June 16. He was fortunate to escape further damage, but the surgically-inserted plate will remain in his cheek for the rest of his life.Originally slated to begin the season in the bullpen, the Red Sox moved Houck back to the rotation when several starters weren’t ready for Opening Day. It proved to be a blessing in disguise, as the 27-year-old righty immediately and consistently proved himself.His 5.05 ERA and 4.42 FIP across 13 starts don’t tell the full story of his value this season. While his fellow starters began the season unable to pitch deeper than three or four innings, Houck has consistently gone the distance. In 10 of his 12 starts before his injury, he went five or more innings. Both of his last two games were against the New York Yank...Charles Manson cult follower Leslie Van Houten likely close to freedom

LOS ANGELES (AP) — California’s governor announced Friday that he won’t ask the state Supreme Court to block parole for Charles Manson follower Leslie Van Houten, paving the way for her release after serving 53 years in prison for two infamous murders.In a brief statement, the governor’s office said it was unlikely that the state’s high court would consider an appeal of a lower court ruling that Van Houten should be released.Gov. Gavin Newsom is disappointed, the statement said.“More than 50 years after the Manson cult committed these brutal killings, the victims’ families still feel the impact,” the statement said.Van Houten, now in her 70s, is serving a life sentence for helping Manson and other followers in the 1969 killings of Leno LaBianca, a grocer in Los Angeles, and his wife, Rosemary.Van Houten could be freed in about two weeks after the parole board reviews her record and processes paperwork for her release from the California Institution for Women in Corona, her attorney ...Latest news
