Kansas City hasn’t been flawless, of course — they’ve actually make a couple outs in key situations — but Ned Yost’s group has been pretty darn close, which is why the Royals are one win away from the World Series after a 2-1 victory in Game 3 on Tuesday night.

It definitely happened, and there’s no pretending that it didn’t, but don’t forget one very important fact: When Brad Ausmus came out of the dugout to take Max Scherzer out of the game, Baltimore already had a 4-3 lead, with a runner on second base who would come around to make it 5-3 and start the merry-go-round inning that doomed any chance of a Detroit comeback.

Baldwin recently spoke to ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos to discuss the fatal incident that occurred on the movie set and was asked if he pulled the trigger on the gun. “The trigger wasn’t pulled. I didn’t pull the trigger. I would never point a gun at someone and pull the trigger on them, never,” Baldwin said in response. The full interview is set to air on Wednesday night but a preview also showed Baldwin stating that he had “no idea” how a live bullet made it onto the movie set and into the prop gun....

Speaking to reporters on Capitol Hill on Tuesday, Ocasio-Cortez said it was “outrageous” for Republicans opposed to Trump’s impeachment to “protect the amount of lawlessness” that she said the U.S. leader has displayed. “We have to do our job and I think that once the House impeaches, the House has impeached the president and then that hearing goes to the Senate,” Ocasio-Cortez said. “If they want to fail it, then I want to see every Republican go on the record and knowingly vote against impeachment of this president knowing his corruption, having it on the record so that they can have that stain on their careers for the rest of their lives,” she said....

“Hospital workers do not have protective equipment. We don’t have the necessary ventilators…. What did the Senate majority fight for? One of the largest corporate bailouts, with as few strings as possible, in American history—shameful,” the freshman congresswoman from New York said in her attack on Republicans. “The option that we have is to either let [families] suffer with nothing or to allow this greed of billions of dollars, which will be leveraged into trillions of dollars, to contribute to the largest income-inequality gap in our future,” she continued....

The freshman lawmaker pressed the ex-vice president not to make false claims about his record, before going on to call him one of the “biggest champions” of the 2005 bankruptcy bill. She also said that he was “pressured” into dropping his support for the Hyde Amendment last year—legislation that bans federal funding for the majority of abortions. Joe Biden and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) went head-to-head in Washington last night for a CNN debate with no studio audience, owing to the ongoing COVID-19 epidemic....

The Times reported on Trump’s speech on the killings in Dayton and El Paso which left at least 31 people dead with the headline “Trump urges unity vs. racism.” While the president did denounce “racism, bigotry and white supremacy” during his speech, the headline was heavily condemned for not addressing Trump’s own inflammatory and racist rhetoric. The president has been heavily criticized and even accused of influencing the shooting at the El Paso Walmart, which left 22 people dead after the gunman expressed similar views and language to the president in an online manifesto published just before the attack at the city on the U....
