• Alexander: Dodgers are rolling again, but it’s all about October

  12-06-2024 08:46 via ocregister.com
  
  LOS ANGELES — Last weekend’s series at Yankee Stadium featured a playoff atmosphere, and the Dodgers responded with playoff intensity and won two out of three from the team with baseball’s best record.
  And I’m sure, Dodger fans, that plenty of you watched that series and asked yourselves, “Where was that the last couple of Octobers?”
  That is the irritant among the fan base, and that discomfort will remain until it’s eradicated by a full-season championsh

• Angels lose ugly game to Diamondbacks

  12-06-2024 07:11 via ocregister.com
  
  PHOENIX — The Angels’ game was pretty ugly already, and then in sixth inning there was one of those moments that it became really difficult to watch.
  Catcher Logan O’Hoppe had to leave the game after a foul ball hit him squarely in the cup. O’Hoppe writhed in pain on the field, and a few minutes later gingerly walked to the dugout.
  There was no immediate word on whether O’Hoppe required further treatment.
  Beyond that disturbing moment, it was a rather nondescript pe

  LOS ANGELES — It takes a village, and on Tuesday night, the Dodgers assembled in the town square.
  With former shortstop Corey Seager in the house, the Dodgers showed they have moved on from their former star shortstop in a 15-2 victory over the Texas Rangers, even if they have yet to advance to a World Series without him.
  Mookie Betts, the Dodgers’ third shortstop since Seager departed via free agency after the 2021 season, hit a three-run double. Three left-handed power bats that ha

  SEATTLE — The first stop of the Sparks’ seven-game trip was always going to include a little extra emotion – for both sides.
  Nneka Ogwumike scored a season-high 26 points against her former team, Jewell Loyd added 21 points and the Seattle Storm pulled away to beat the Sparks, 95-79, on Tuesday night.
  Seattle scored on four straight possessions down the stretch to seal it. Skylar Diggins-Smith drove into the lane and passed it out to Ogwumike for a corner 3-pointer to make it 7

  An Orange County Superior Court judge who failed to turn over evidence as a prosecutor in a 2010 murder case indicated Tuesday, June 11, that the fault may have been with sheriff’s investigators.

  LOS ANGELES — Corey Seager walked back into Dodger Stadium on Tuesday with another World Series title to his credit, and if there was not a spring in his step, it was only because of his current bout with hamstring soreness.
  Once synonymous, Seager and the Dodgers are no more after seven wildly productive seasons and a World Series title in 2020.
  If his transition between organizations in the winter of 2021 was difficult, Seager said he couldn’t recall those emotions. He didn’t

  Stanford University infectious disease doctor Abraar Karan has seen a lot of patients with runny noses, fevers, and irritated eyes lately. Such symptoms could signal allergies, covid, or a cold. This year, there’s another suspect, bird flu — but there’s no way for most doctors to know.

  12-06-2024 01:26 via ocregister.com
  
  Shopping center landlords have found themselves in a wholly unfamiliar position: For the first time in 20 years, demand for retail space outstrips supply.
  That demand has soared recently and, after years of muted construction and a purge of weak-performing properties, met a retail market with less available space. Properties that survived the purge signed up tenants that would draw more shoppers and give them more reason to linger. That meant more restaurants and venues that promote recreational
