Andrew Benintendi also singled to right to load the bases for Luis Robert Jr., who snapped an 0-for-16 slide with a two-run bloop double to right.Two more runs scored when Andrew Vaughn singled to center. Eloy Jiménez made it six hits in a row with a single to right-center.But the bats quickly cooled off and the four-run surge wasn’t enough to overcome a big game by former Sox infielder Josh Harrison, who had three hits and four RBIs to lead the Phillies to a 7-4 victory in Game 1 at Guaranteed Rate Field.“We gave a good effort, but at the end of the day we probably have to tack on there (in the third) and either tie it up or take the lead to be able to win that ballgame,” Sox manager Pedro Grifol said. “But our...Key defensive play lifts Medfield to high-scoring win over King Philip

MEDFIELD — In a game that saw 32 goals, it was a defensive stand at the end that helped Medfield escape with a 17-15 girls lacrosse victory over King Philip.The hold saw Medfield’s Kelly Blake force a turnover near the goal while the hosts held a slim 16-15 lead. The ensuing play saw them wear out the clock and fire home an insurance marker.“Kelly Blake has nice clean checks,” Medfield coach Mary Laughna said. “She read the girl’s stick well and just got it.”The first half saw 21 goals combined between the teams and four total lead changes. King Philip led for most of the half, taking an early lead and never allowing Medfield to get more than a two-goal advantage. Still, it was Medfield which took an 11-10 lead at the half.“We came out with high energy and we knew how competitive this game was going to be for us.” King Philip coach Kourtnie Wilder said. “It could have gone either way, but I’m really proud of our effort.”King Philip quickly retook the lead in the second half an...Inmate found dead in North County prison cell

SAN DIEGO -- Passengers traveling on Southwest Airlines Tuesday morning were shocked to learn all flights had been halted after a system-wide technical issue.“It happens so often that I’m used to it. I travel quite a bit, so 30-minute delay at this point - knock on wood,” said business traveler Heidi Caella at San Diego International Airport.At about 7 a.m. Tuesday, at the request of Southwest, the Federal Aviation Administration issued a nationwide ground stop for all Southwest flights, citing equipment issues. Southwest issued an apology saying they were working to fix the problem, which had to do with “a data connection issue resulting from a firewall failure.” The FAA canceled the pause about an hour later, but by then thousands of flights had been impacted across the country.

ATLANTA (AP) — Charles Stanley, a prominent televangelist who once led the Southern Baptist Convention, died Tuesday at his home in Atlanta at age 90, In Touch Ministries announced.No cause of death was announced.Born in rural Dry Fork, Virginia, Stanley was senior pastor of First Baptist Church of Atlanta for 50 years. The church grew rapidly after he became its leader in 1971, moving from central Atlanta to a suburban campus in 1997 to accommodate a growing flock in the sprawling urban area.“We are forever grateful for his enduring legacy of faithful leadership and spiritual guidance,” the church said in a social media post.But his greatest fame came from his role in hosting “In Touch with Dr. Charles Stanley,” a Christian teaching program that began airing on the newborn Christian Broadcasting Network in 1978. That led to the creation of a separate nonprofit, In Touch Ministries, that sent Stanley’s broadcasts across the nation and world through radio and television. It eve...Planning a trip?

SALEM, Ore.

Hundreds of people have invested thousands of dollars apiece in this budding industry, and some worry that the rollout is proceeding too slowly. “We thank you for your dedication to client safety and access as we move closer to opening service centers,” Oregon Psilocybin Services Manager Angie Allbee said in a statement Tuesday to three people who received the state’s first facilitator licenses.But to date, no service centers — where customers would access...‘Be skeptical’: Toronto police warn of ongoing pizza delivery scam
