PHOENIX (AP) — Will Smith’s been a really good relief pitcher in the big leagues for 12 years.He’s also got a knack for being in the right place at the right time.The left-handed reliever became the first player in MLB history to win three World Series in a row with three different teams after the Texas Rangers beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 5-0 on Wednesday night to clinch the franchise’s first title.“As a kid, in your front yard playing catch, when you’re first falling in love with baseball, it’s always 3-2, bottom of the ninth, Game 7 of the World Series,” Smith said after Game 4. “You always dream of being in these situations. So to be lucky enough to do it three years in a row, it’s something I don’t take for granted.”Smith — a 2019 All-Star selection who grew up in Georgia — was a key piece of Atlanta’s bullpen in 2021 when the Braves won the title, throwing four scoreless innings during the World Series. He was also on the Houston Astros’ roster f...

Tate Reeves and Democratic challenger Brandon Presley insulted and spoke over each other several times Wednesday night in their only debate of a rough-and-tumble campaign season, presenting sharply contrasting plans for the state.The televised debate happened six days before the general election in a deeply conservative state where Republicans have held the governor’s office for the past 20 years.Presley said state government “is bought and sold to the highest bidder,” with Reeves demanding campaign contributions before meeting with people.Reeves said that Presley, a utility regulator, has taken questionable campaign contributions from “solar panel buddies … that have tried to run the oil business out of America.”The debate was held before a small audience in the WAPT-TV studio in Jackson.

Snyder later said he had his mind in 2024 as soon as he won the final in Chile.“My next thing is just take a little break and get back on the main train,” Snyder told The Associated Press after his title bout. “We’ve got the holidays, then there’s a couple of tournaments, one in January, one February. I need to get ready for the Olympic trials, April 19th and 20th. That’s what I’m going to be looking forward to getting ready the most.”Snyder has been affected by injuries during...
