[1/35] Aug 16, 2023; San Diego, California, USA; San Diego Padres starting pitcher Blake Snell (4) throws a pitch against the Baltimore Orioles during the first inning at Petco Park. Padres starter Blake Snell (10-8) gave up two runs on three hits and two walks with five strikeouts in six innings. That catch proved doubly important because the next hitter, Ryan Mountcastle, homered off Snell to bring the Orioles within 3-2. Grisham's 12th homer of the season, off Shintaro Fujinami with one out in the seventh, boosted San Diego's lead to 4-2. Later in the seventh, Tatis singled to left with two outs, ending Fujinami's night.

☆ Framber Valdez tosses no-hitter as Astros top Guardians
▼ + stars: | 2023-08-02 | by ( Field Level Media | ) www.reuters.com time to read: +4 min

August 2 - Framber Valdez tossed his first career no-hitter and faced the minimum 27 batters as the Houston Astros made a pair of third-inning runs stand in a 2-0 victory over the visiting Cleveland Guardians on Tuesday. Valdez threw five pitches in the seventh inning and 10 in the eighth, allowing him to enter the ninth with 81 on his ledger. When I got to the seventh inning, I thought to myself, 'OK, I think I can finish this game without any hits.' The last Astros pitcher to throw a solo no-hitter before Tuesday was Justin Verlander on Sept. 1, 2019, vs. the Blue Jays. The Astros provided Valdez the necessary run support in the bottom of the third, mustering two runs off Guardians rookie right-hander Gavin Williams with two outs.

Left-hander Tyler Anderson gave up one run on seven hits over 6 1/3 innings, and Carlos Estevez (5-1) earned the win. Yarbrough (4-5) needed just 78 pitches to complete seven innings, allowing a run on seven hits with five strikeouts and no walks.

The moment of triumph for HBO is coming at a time of transition for the network, which since last year has been run by a debt-ridden parent company, Warner Bros. The network is now part of a streaming service that removed its call letters (bye HBO Max, hello Max). HBO had the three most nominated shows: “Succession” (27), “The Last of Us” (24) and “The White Lotus” (23). It was in 1992, when NBC landed nominations for “I’ll Fly Away,” “L.A. Law,” “Law & Order” and “Quantum Leap.” All four series lost to that year’s winner, “Northern Exposure,” from CBS.

San Diego’s All-Star closer, Josh Hader, had worked on Monday and Tuesday and had not pitched on three consecutive days since 2021. Sensitive to overuse after his years in Milwaukee, he had declined an opportunity to do it in San Francisco last month. Yet with the Padres leading by 5-3 in the ninth inning on Wednesday, here came Hader. “He’s got a sense of where we are as a team,” Melvin explained afterward. In the long run, if I can’t provide for the team later because of injury, then it’s no use.”Though the Padres’ rotation led the N.L.

A soldier traumatized by war violence, he’s returned to the U.S. and fallen into an underworld of contract killing. Berkman’s good at it—too good, which is how he becomes the Los Angeles crime world’s preferred assassin, a job he’d like to stop but keeps doing because it’s all he truly knows.

Before he was an Emmy-winning actor for his critically acclaimed "Barry," Bill Hader struggled to get the career he wanted. Instead, it's been a matter of being in the right place at the right time. In a recent interview with the New Yorker, Hader recalls how he moved to Los Angles in 1999 with aspirations of one day being a director. He spent most of his 20s working as a production assistant, a postproduction assistant and then as an assistant editor on a reality TV show. The "Superbad" actor decided to take improv classes on the recommendation of a friend, and quickly saw his fortunes turn around.
