Morgan was referring to the news the Trump administration had announced earlier that Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the leader of ISIS, had been killed—which happened on the same day Trump was booed during Game 5 of the World Series at Nationals Park in Washington, D.C. Morgan appeared perplexed at why Americans would boo the president in response to “a brilliant operation by American armed forces, a courageous, bold order to conduct the mission from the President of the United States, and a moment for America to show the world that when they said they’d get tough with terrorism, they meant it,” the British television personality said....

The 31-year-old left-hander has not appeared in the majors since 2013, when a shoulder injury ended his season.

Drummond was able to walk off with some assistance and was a bit sore after the game. He will not play in the Pistons' Wednesday game in Denver and is question for Friday in Phoenix. "Just a little bit of a scare," Drummond said on Sunday. "It's hard for me to make moves left and right sometimes, but it shouldn't be anything that should stop me from the next few days....

Production of oxytocin starts in the area of the brain called the hypothalamus. The hypothalamus is the bridge between the nervous system and the endocrine system, the body system that creates all of the hormones that the body needs. Once oxytocin has been produced, it travels to another part of the brain that is very close to the hypothalamus, called the pituitary, where it’s stored. After oxytocin is stored, it will stay there until it is ready to be released....

The incident brought a smile to Magee's face. Having been a teenager in MLS a decade ago, he surely knows that Fagundez is simply living as a teen — waiting for nobody, in a hurry to enjoy a life and career just beginning to blossom. Fagundez is the 19-year-old goal-scoring sensation who emerged last year to post the most productive season in the history of MLS for a teenager. His 13 goals and seven assists helped transform New England from a club that hadn't made the playoffs in years to one of the more exciting attacking outfits in MLS....

That’s the question many in the Pokémon community are asking after the latest Pokémon Presents online presentation. On Wednesday, The Pokémon Company held a 10-minute presentation where it announced its latest game, Pokémon Unite. While Pokémon Unite is a MOBA-style strategy game that the franchise hasn’t seen before, fans were seemingly left underwhelmed by the announcement especially with the lack of news and updates from Pokémon Sleep, causing the title to trend Wednesday morning....

On that cold night last February, Overly Manufacturing joined the most far-reaching economic trend of the 1990s, the restructuring of the American workplace. From Maine to California, regimented, standardized mass production is out. Flexibility, quality, low costs and quick response to customer needs are the orders of the day. To achieve those goals, employers big and small are enlisting Armed frontline workers as active participants in rethinking the business, organizing the work and even hiring new employees (page 48)....

That’s why Clint Young pretty much had to be in Kansas City on Tuesday for his team’s first playoff game since they won the 1985 World Series. See, Young grew up a Royals fan in the suburb of Independence, but earlier in 1985 his family moved out to Fresno, Calif., so the not-yet-driving teenager had to watch his team win the Fall Classic from what felt like a million miles away....

Making the College Football Playoff with two losses isn’t impossible, but it has not happened yet. To do so, it will take a wacky year — a Thanksgiving-size dose of chaos. For Baylor, Nebraska, and Texas A&M, the taste of their second loss spells almost certain doom for their playoff hopes. LSU too, saw their playoff dreams extinguished with their third loss (sorry Tigers, no team is going to qualify with three defeats)....

We’re not going with a huge game stack, instead opting for a couple mini-stacks (unavoidable on this small of a slate) and taking a little something from every game. Some of these picks are chalky, which, again, is almost unavoidable on a short slate, but by fading guys like Todd Gurley, Alvin Kamara, Kareem Hunt, Travis Kelce, and Julio Jones, we’re going enough against the grain to hopefully pay off if we hit....

The Seminoles are winning and haven’t lost all season, the only unbeaten Power 5 team. That has to count for something, doesn’t it? Or maybe the week after week of too-close-for-comfort wins is beginning to take its toll on a College Football Playoff selection committee that is splitting hairs between viable one-loss candidates that clearly are playing better than FSU (see: Baylor, TCU, Ohio State). A look at this week’s Four In, Four Out:...

Starting out as an actress probably helped. Wohl studied acting and gave that a shot, getting TV work several shows and movies, including CSI: NY and Law & Order, until she says, she “finally found a career that could get [her] less money.” A major turning point occurred in Wohl’s life after “I came back to New York from L.A. and I said, ‘I can’t keep both these things up....
