On May 8, 2001, Johnson became the third pitcher (and the first lefty) in MLB history to strike out 20 batters over nine innings. But unlike Roger Clemens and Kerry Wood before him, Johnson’s stellar effort wasn’t enough to secure a win in regulation for the Diamondbacks, who remained tied with the Reds 1-1 after nine complete. After fanning the Reds’ Juan Castros for his 20th strikeout to close out the top of the ninth, Johnson turned things over to the Arizona bullpen, which surrendered the lead in the 11th, only to have the offense bail it out with a comeback win in the bottom half of the inning....

It seems unlikely that McCain will win that woman’s vote. “Doing the hard thing could cost him the election,” concedes one McCain adviser, who declined to be named while discussing strategy. “But it’s that kind of conviction that makes great presidents.” McCain is gambling that, in the long run, a significant number of voters will come to value his willingness to stand his ground on a key issue, even if it’s unpopular....

Though the state police warned motorists to stay off the roads, McCain fired up a newer, slicker version of his “Straight Talk Express” bus early Saturday morning and set out for the ice-covered back roads of the influential primary state—his caravan led by a last-minute addition to the campaign: a massive snow plow with a license tag that read GITRDNE. Boarding the bus, McCain and his wife, Cindy, surveyed his new-and-improved Straight Talk Express....

For example, you don’t want to be on the road in the middle of nowhere when your child begins to have an asthma attack and realize that you didn’t bring their asthma relief medications, such as albuterol or Xopenex....

Chelsea, as they often do, eventually won the race to convince a then 15-year-old Gilmour to move to London on his 16th birthday, leaving Rangers desperately sad over losing a player they were close to throwing into their first team. The initial fee to add Gilmour to their already dominant academy ended up costing Chelsea more than £600,000 and his arrival helped see his side win an unprecedented quadruple at Under-18 level last season....

“I don’t understand why I would do that,” Thunberg said when Ellen asked the 16-year-old if she would sit down with Trump to discuss climate change. “I don’t see what I could tell him that he hasn’t already heard, and I just think it would be a waste of time, really,” she said. Thunberg’s interview with Ellen took place before the activist’s appearance at a Los Angeles strike Friday, where demonstrators were expected to call for California to phase out fossil fuel production....
