ARLINGTON, Texas — The Angels’ rollicking blowout victory in Tampa now seems so long ago. Since the day the Angels blasted six homers and scored 11 runs, their offense has been largely dormant. The Angels lost, 3-1, to the Texas Rangers on Wednesday night, losing for the fourth time in five games since that victory in Tampa. The Angels have scored 11 runs in the last five games, including just one in the first two games against the Rangers. They have hit .218 with a .631 OPS on those games. Part of the problem is that they’ve been without Logan…
LOS ANGELES — Clayton Kershaw’s first competitive game in 8½ months went as well as the Dodgers could have hoped after the veteran breezed through three innings for Triple-A Oklahoma City on Wednesday afternoon. In his first rehab outing since offseason surgery on his left big toe and left knee, Kershaw delivered three scoreless innings, allowing two hits with no walks and two strikeouts against the Tacoma Rainiers. Kershaw reached 89 mph among his 30 pitches, 22 of which were strikes. “I think a guy like Clayton is more of how he feels,” Manager Dave Roberts said when asked what…
By WILL GRAVES, AP National Writer Donald Trump, the candidate, pledged to get “transgender insanity the hell out of our schools” and “keep men out of women’s sports.” Donald Trump, the president, wasted little time delivering on his promise to address a topic that seemed to resonate across party lines. Trump issued an executive order on the day his second term began that called for “restoring biological truth to the federal government” and signed another on Wednesday titled “ Keeping Men Out of Women’s Sports. ” The federal government now has wide latitude across multiple agencies to penalize federally funded…
INGLEWOOD — Clippers star Kawhi Leonard could easily be bitter by now. Knee injuries, especially at this time of the year, have played havoc with his career to the point that he has appeared in just two postseason games over the past two seasons. Yet, the 33-year-old forward is just as excited to face the Denver Nuggets in the first round of the Western Conference playoffs as he was to play in the 2001 NBA Finals during his rookie year with the San Antonio Spurs. “I love the game. I love the game, and I have a passion for it…
By AMANDA SWINHART and PATRICK WHITTLE MORGAN, Vt. (AP) — Making maple syrup in New England’s fickle spring weather can be an unpredictable business. Now President Donald Trump’s ever-changing tariff policies are adding anxiety about an industry that depends on multinational trade. “Any kind of disruption with our cross border enterprise, we feel it,” said Jim Judd, a fourth-generation sugarer who owns Judd’s Wayeeses Farms in Morgan, Vermont. “It’s uncertain enough making maple syrup.” Judd, who has been making Vermont’s signature product since the 1970s, says multiple countries contribute to each container of the sticky sweetener. Stainless steel fixtures used…
By THALIA BEATY NEW YORK (AP) — The nonprofit Vera Institute of Justice says staff from Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency contacted them to assign a team to the organization and told them they planned to similarly install teams with all nonprofits receiving funds appropriated by Congress. Nick Turner, president of the New York-based criminal justice nonprofit, said Wednesday the nonprofit’s attorneys asked the DOGE staffers what legal basis they had to investigate a nonprofit and informed the staffers that the U.S. Department of Justice recently terminated grants to Vera. The DOGE staffers then withdrew their request to assign…
EL SEGUNDO — The Minnesota Timberwolves using 37-year-old Joe Ingles on their scout team to play the role of Lakers star Luka Doncic in preparation for Saturday’s playoff opener was far from just Internet fodder. “It’s hard to replicate everything [Doncic] does,” Timberwolves coach Chris Finch said after his team’s practice on Tuesday. “We have Joe Ingles kind of simulating things, who gives us a comp on size and IQ for sure, but it’s certainly tough. And then you got to try to simulate LeBron [James] and other guys around.” But the Timberwolves also aren’t alone in using players who…
By Patrick Clark and Jennifer Epstein | Bloomberg Zillow Group is setting new rules for marketing properties on its websites and apps, escalating a fight between the online real estate company and brokerage giant Compass over how US homes are sold. Sellers’ agents wanting to market their properties on Zillow’s sites must follow a new standard requiring that the listings be available widely, according to a statement issued April 10. If a for-sale home is online and hasn’t been posted to a multiple-listing service within 24 hours, that listing will be banned from Zillow. The new rule, slated to take…
By ALANNA DURKIN RICHER, MARK SHERMAN and MICHAEL KUNZELMAN, Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) — A federal judge’s ruling that the Trump administration appears to have willfully violated his order to turn around planes of migrants headed for El Salvador increases the prospect of officials being held in criminal contempt of court and potentially facing possible prosecution. U.S. District Judge James Boasberg said in his ruling on Wednesday that probable cause exists to hold the administration in contempt over its defiance of his order in the case involving migrants sent to a notorious El Salvador prison. The judge is giving the…
