Buttigieg, a Democrat who is from Vice President Mike Pence’s home state of Indiana, spoke to the network before the only debate between Pence and Senator Kamala Harris. Like Harris, he had previously sought the party’s 2020 nomination. Fox News’ Martha McCallum asked Buttigieg about Harris’ views on policy issues that differ from former Vice President Joe Biden. The senator had been more supportive of Medicare for All during the Democratic presidential primaries....

In a CNN Town Hall, the openly gay Democratic presidential candidate was asked if he thought his sexual orientation was preventing some black voters from throwing their support behind him. Buttigieg redirected the conversation to his policy proposals, which he said would overcome any cultural resentment. “I think that a lot of these other factors start to wash away once voters understand what it’s going to mean for them that [I’m in the race] versus the others [who] are running for office,” he said....

MORE: 25 best baseball players not in the Hall of Fame During a pregame ceremony before the Reds played host to the San Diego Padres, baseball’s hit king was the 86th player added to the team’s hall. “I can honestly tell you, to date, this is the biggest thing that’s ever happened to me in baseball,” the 17-time All-Star and 1973 National League MVP said Saturday. Rose was the key cog in Cincinnati’s “Big Red Machine,” helping the team win three World Series titles....

The golden-locked Sumpter is an American, and the only cast member without a British accent. This is surely no accident; it serves to further offset his anarchic energy from the veddy British members of the Darling family whom he wafts off to Neverland. He’s a pretty-boy pagan Pan. He enters the film–literally bouncing off the walls and ceiling of the children’s bedroom in the Darling’s London townhouse–like a prepubescent glam rocker who knows all eyes are on him....

Robbins’ family confirmed to news outlet FOX 5 San Diego that he died by suicide. The actor, who had bipolar disorder, began voicing Charlie Brown in 1963 when he was just nine years old and went on to voice act in several more Peanuts cartoons. In 2015, Robbins served almost five years in prison when he was convicted of making criminal threats against a number of people, including San Diego County Sheriff William Gore....

Started in October last year, the petition has gained more than 90,000 signatures in the past week and is quickly approaching its new target of 150,000. The original target was 75,000. If approved, Trump Tower’s new address could be “725 President Barack H. Obama Avenue, New York, N.Y. 10022.” Gaining immense traction online, it is being signed nationwide either out of respect for the former president or as a jibe to President Donald Trump....

The Hurricanes goaltender left his team’s matchup against the Islanders with a lower body injury in Game 2 and did not return. However, the team listed him as day-to-day Monday. Canes coach Rod Brind’Amour called the day-to-day listing “good news.” However, it was reported Tuesday that Mrazek will likely miss Game 3 as the team allows him to take his time with his recovery. The 27-year-old Mrazek was fantastic for the Hurricanes in the opening game of the second-round series against New York....

A total of six active NFL players have appeared on the Manningcast of “Monday Night Football” in 2021; all of them have gone on to lose the next week. Perhaps that’s the reason Al Michaels, Phil Mickelson, Draymond Green and Philip Rivers are on this week. Unless Rivers comes out of retirement and plans to play by Sunday, there’s no threat of the curse affecting an NFL player in Week 11....

Coincidence? We thought not. And now we know not. The Denver Broncos’ quarterback was asked by MMQB.com’s Peter King why his side business is booming. Manning didn’t go right to pot with the “unplugged” interview, but just like he is on the field, he was plugged into a significant reason for his success. “There’s some different laws out here in Colorado,” Manning said. “Pizza business is pretty good out here, believe it or not, due to some recent law changes....

Chartered United Airlines flights reportedly began carrying doses of the vaccine to multiple areas around the country on Friday, with the first flight landing in Chicago that afternoon. While there is no authorized vaccine for the prevention of COVID-19, it is hoped the planes will help allow for quick distribution if the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) does approve the shots for use in the U.S., The Wall Street Journal reported....

“By doing so, we will be able to better understand the potential safety and efficacy of the vaccine in individuals from more ages and backgrounds,” the company said in an updated statement. Pfizer had already expanded Phase 3 of its trial to include children 16 and older, as well as people with chronic, stable human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), Hepatitis C, and Hepatitis B. Why Test a COVID-19 Vaccine in Children?...

It became a major concern toward the 18th hole as Mickelson and Koepka were both surrounded by fans as security became overwhelmed by the crowds hoping to catch a glimpse of Mickelson making history as the oldest PGA Champion. PGA of America CEO Seth Waugh apologized in a tweet Monday for the lapse of security, noting that he apologized personally to both Mickelson and Koepka for the crowds. “While we welcome enthusiastic fan engagement, we regret that a moment of high elation and pent-up emotion by spectators on the 18th hole during the conclusion of yesterday’s historic PGA Championship briefly overwhelmed security and made two players and their caddies feel vulnerable....

All manner of records were expected to tumble en route to Koepka defending his major title after he opened with a seven-shot lead over a field that wasn’t so much chasing as desperately clinging on for dear life. But in golf, as in life, there are no guarantees and Koepka had to ride out a storm after a back nine that saw him drop five shots in the space of seven holes and provide more than a glimmer of opportunity to good friend and gym buddy Dustin Johnson....

With the 2021 Masters in the rearview mirror, all eyes are now on Kiawah Island’s pristine Ocean Course in South Carolina as the world’s best compete for the Wanamaker Trophy just eight months after last year’s coronavirus-delayed PGA Championship. Collin Morikawa, the 2020 winner, is back to defend his title and is among the favorites to win in the midst of a strong 2021 season, which includes four top-10 finishes for the world No....

After shooting three straight 9-under 63s to open a seven-stroke lead, Reed had a 1-under 71 on Sunday at PGA West's to beat Ryan Palmer by two strokes. "A lot tougher than the first three rounds," Reed said. "My speed was off today. I left a lot of putts short. It seemed like the first three days the ball was just trickling over the front edge, and today it seemed like it came to a screeching halt....

Hull’s 3-0 defeat to Manchester City on Boxing Day left them bottom of the Premier League table, four points from safety, and Phelan has made it clear he will look to strengthen the squad when the transfer window opens in January. Last season’s regular right-back Moses Odubajo has suffered two serious knee injuries, which are likely to rule him out of the entire season, with Ahmed Elmohamady filling in thus far....

He has already collected a wealth of experience in his life, having been born in Brazil before moving to Portugal aged four. By the time he was 16, he had been snapped up by Manchester City, where he debuted as a 17-year-old, playing one of only five matches for the Citizens as a late replacement for David Silva in an FA Cup tie against Watford. Nevertheless, he found time to make history by netting, thereby becoming the club’s youngest ever scorer....

Reports surfaced Sunday night that Warriors assistant Luke Walton told Jackson he wasn’t interested in the Knicks job at this point — no surprise on Walton’s end, considering he should have his pick of whatever jobs come open in the NBA this summer. But the reported rebuff provided one more opportunity to poke fun at the Knicks, and Jackson apparently wasn’t amused. PHOTOS: The Zen Master, from player to coach...
