However, the third game proved to be a lopsided affair with Dawid Malan’s 99* helping the 2010 T20 World Cup champions seal the deal in the 18th over itself.

The event, the first at the newly built Donald Trump ballroom at the Trump National Doral resort, had a special guest — the Donald.

He did make a little bit of a gaffe when welcoming the crowd and saying, “Congratulations, Kevin, where the hell is Kevin, where is Kevin, what a race that was,” during his welcome....

Musk took ownership of Twitter on Thursday night, only hours before a Friday deadline for the purchase.

Unless the front office tries to play games with his service time, Jimenez should suit up for the parent club next month, never to again wear a minor-league uniform. He’s listed at 6-4, but he told Sporting News before a recent interview that he’s actually 6-5. If you’re standing next to him, you might think he’s underestimating that size. The White Sox acquired Jimenez in a rare deal of significance between the two Chicago clubs in July 2017....
