Dear Abby: I can’t keep giving money to my depressed sister Throughout her adult life, even while she was married, she has never been able to make ends meet. (She doesn’t ask, but drops enough hints that I know things aren’t going well.) I have suggested repeatedly that she needs to find a better job. [...] I hate to see her struggle, and I don’t want her kicked out of her apartment. Ask her how many of the leads you gave her were followed up on. Because you say she is chronically depressed...

Monday night, in the A’s 14th home game, Davis finally backed up his words and hit his first two Coliseum home runs, but that was the extent of Oakland’s offense in a 4-3 loss to the Mariners. Davis doesn’t tend to hit cheapies — Monday’s shots were exhibits A and B — and a study showed that all of Davis’ 2015 homers would have been gone at the Coliseum, give or take a wind current or temperature drop. Last season’s 27 homers came in 392 at-bats, but he needed 39 at-bats for his first Coliseum homer... Читать дальше...

Greece’s national soccer team pulled a near-inconceivable upset at the 2004 European Championships, at 150-to-1 odds. The harsh reality of British soccer is that downtrodden teams get tossed out of the Premier League, banished to lower divisions until they right the ship. Just a year ago, in April, the Foxes were at the bottom of the standings and needed a miraculous finish to stay among the Premier League’s elite 20.

Cueto is stoic and tough enough to shunt aside a horrible inning quickly, as he did in Monday night's 9-6 comeback victory. Yet just as he did after a five-run first inning against the Dodgers in his second start... Читать дальше...
