Tampa Bay included outfielder Jose Siri, who missed the final three weeks with a broken hand. He then went 2-2 with a 7.96 ERA in his next five starts and was dropped from the Phillies' rotation. Texas said Hernández has a right shoulder injury and included Bush, who hasn't pitched a big league game since June 30 for Milwaukee. The 37-year-old right-hander Bush is the only player on the Rangers' roster who was also part of the 2016 team that was swept by the Rays. He had surgery in 2018 to repair and reinforce the partially torn ulnar collateral ligament in hopes of avoiding Tommy John surgery.

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — The mother of Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Josh Lowe and Texas Rangers first baseman Nathaniel Lowe will not make the trip to Tropicana Field for this week’s AL Wild Card Series featuring her sons because she is battling cancer and undergoing chemotherapy.

The US housing market is starting to flash a few rays of sunshine for prospective homebuyers. It comes as the housing market has been stuck, with sales activity stalling as high rates discourage buying and selling. In fact, the situation is so bad that Redfin CEO Glenn Kelman recently declared the market has hit "rock bottom." More precisely, the 30-year mortgage rate hit the highest level in 23 years, climbing further above 7%. In the existing home market, sellers are growing open to negotiating about the asking price, or offering concessions, like funding home repairs or a mortgage-rate buydown.

☆ Right again, Einstein! Study shows how antimatter responds to gravity
▼ + stars: | 2023-09-27 | by ( Will Dunham | ) www.reuters.com time to read: +5 min

Antimatter is the enigmatic twin of ordinary matter, possessing the same mass but with an opposite electrical charge. Under current theory, the Big Bang explosion that initiated the universe should have produced equal amounts of matter and antimatter. However, antimatter can be synthesized under controlled conditions, as in the ALPHA experiment, which used antihydrogen created at CERN. "The nearly complete absence of naturally occurring antimatter is one of the great questions facing physics," Wurtele said. "No matter how pretty the theory, physics is an experimental science," Fajans said.

Hydrogen bombs and atomic bombs are both nuclear weapons that can cause mass destruction. But just seven years later an even more destructive nuclear bomb was built — the hydrogen bomb. Whereas hydrogen bombs get their power from a combination of fission and its opposite — nuclear fusion — the binding of atoms. Hydrogen vs. atomic bombs: damage and destructionWhile atomic bomb blasts are measured in kilotons — 1 kt is equivalent to the explosive force of 1,000 tons of TNT — hydrogen bombs are often measured in megatons.

NEW YORK (AP) — Toronto Blue Jays slugger Vladimir Guerrero Jr. got good news Thursday when an MRI on his right knee showed inflammation and no structural damage. Guerrero was held of the starting lineup for the second straight night as the Blue Jays completed a three-game series with the Yankees. “I think having the MRI kind of give him peace of mind was a good thing,” Toronto manager John Schneider said. “It's very hard for me not being in the lineup but thank God we're in an OK position right now,” Guerrero said. He said he had been dealing with knee pain all season but woke up with the inflammation Tuesday.
