Photo: Frank Franklin II/AP/Shutterstock/Frank Franklin II/AP/Shutterstoc I had just moved to New York when the last World Series between the Mets and Yankees took place, in 2000. Though I hadn’t lived in the city long, its baseball pecking order was clear enough to anyone. The series pitted the then-dominant Yankees (who had won three of the previous four World Series) against the plucky Mets (who trailed the Yankees in total World Series titles by … 23). The series, which the Yankees won 4-1, reflected that dynamic; it felt like a big brother allowing his tinier sibling a few meek swings at him before felling him with one straight jab.

It was a lunatic moment made even more surreal by the fact that Clemens both avoided an ejection and ended up tossing eight shutout innings, earning the win. (Seriously, I still can’t believe this happened.) … [Read more...] about It’s Not Too Early to Get Excited About a Subway Series

It was attacking bodily organs, including the heart — even in healthy, young athletes. Enough athletes with COVID were experiencing heart inflammation, called myocarditis, that doctors at the University of Maryland and other Big Ten schools didn’t want to take any chances. Myocarditis already was seen as one of the leading causes of sudden death in elite athletes, so doctors across the conference immediately imposed official protocols that kept some players off the fields for up to six months. Some grumbled, but everyone recovered. “They could be walking time bomb and we’d only find out retrospectively,” said Dr. Yvette Rooks, who oversees care for more than 530 athletes on 19 teams as head team physician at the University of Maryland, College Park. “Some had symptoms and many … [Read more...] about Doctors look to athletes for clues to COVID’s heart impacts

A horrific family tragedy was unfolding in Minnesota on Friday, with police reporting that a father was found dead of an apparent suicide before the mother and three kids apparently drowned in a lake. Authorities from an array of law enforcement and rescue agencies searching Vadnais Lake northeast of Minneapolis found the body of one child. “A horrible set of facts appears to be developing,” Ramsey County Sheriff Bob Fletcher told reporters.
