The New York Yankees were no-hit by the Houston Astros Saturday afternoon at Yankee Stadium. It was the third no-hitter in the majors this year. Right-hander Cristian Javier led the way, throwing the first seven innings. The only baserunners were a walk in the first inning and an error by Alex Bregman. Familiar Mets foe Hector Neris threw the eighth inning, walking a pair but keeping the no-hitter intact. Ryan Pressly finished it off. He struck out Anthony Rizzo and Josh Donaldson, then got Giancarlo Stanton to ground out. It came just two days after Pressly gave up four runs in the bottom of the ninth to the Yankees in the Astros’ collapse. Of the three no-hitters throwing in MLB this year, two of been of the combined variety. The other, of course, was accomplished by the Mets with Tylor Megill, Drew Smith, Joely Rodriguez, Seth Lugo and Edwin Diaz.

That’s the best record of any team to ever be no-hit, per the…

Lea Turner, a 37-year-old single parent, is chatting with her six-year-old son, Dexter, while lovingly decorating her home, bought in March this year. They talk about his new private school, where he is thriving, having qualified for the rugby and football teams, doing well academically and making lots of new friends. It wasn’t always like this. This is the first place Lea has truly called home with her son. Having only ever lived in rentals until now, she had never felt secure. Enduring a slug infestation, a broken boiler that a bad landlord would not replace, and someone wanting their house back, Lea and her son had lived in five different houses before Dexter was five years old. Each time they were forced to move, incurring huge additional costs that hadn’t been budgeted for. Now closer to friends and family in Greater Manchester, having moved from Northampton where she lived for eight years, Lea tells Metro.co.uk: ‘Knowing we now have a beautiful home that’s much larger than the small rentals we used to be in, and it’s all ours – it feels like we can finally set down roots and exhale.’ So, how did she ditch renting and buy a…

The social media landscape is constantly changing, and LinkedIn is no exception. To keep up with the latest trends and changes in LinkedIn, you need the right tools. Here are our picks for the most popular tools and apps to manage LinkedIn profiles and company pages in 2022. Why LinkedIn?

Billionaire LinkedIn founder and prolific political donor Reid Hoffman is sounding the alarm about what he says are the schemes Republicans have planned for 2024 should former Republican President Donald Trump lose his expected second presidential run.Hoffman announced the plans on a Zoom call he organized with more than a dozen other liberal-minded billionaires in which he shared a slide presentation detailing how Republicans plan to use the 2022 midterms to "install Trump in 2024."The presentation laid out a hypothetical scenario in which the GOP uses its expected 2022 midterm Congressional gains to pass legislation in 2023 that would allow the 2024 vote of Trump-unfriendly areas of the country to be invalidated.In response, Hoffman is calling upon the ultra-wealthy to donate millions to counteract these expected moves with a slate of combative initiatives, many of which divert political focus from federal midterm races to state and local level races instead. u201cThe strategy has diverted some of the focus away from federal races toward governor and secretary of state races, election-administrator contests and measures aimed at protecting ballot access and tabulation.nhttps://t.co/XynnSzkK06u201d — The Washington Post (@The Washington Post) 1655913189 The sobering headline of one of Hoffman's slides obtained by the Washington…
