A federal judge ruled that Trump overstepped his authority when he attempted to send National Guard troops to Portland, Oregon. The judge’s decision permanently prohibits such troop deployments. Thank you Judge Karin J. Immergut!

A 14-word replacement for most op-eds, substacks, etc about this moment.
The GOP could stop ALL of this, right now—if a handful of Sens or Reps could step outside the cult.
It would take four in the Senate, four (maybe five) in the House, to change history.
Until then, they're all to blame.

Cora reiterated tonight his belief that the Red Sox have "the best defensive outfield in the big leagues." By the numbers entering tonight, the Sox OF leads MLB in Statcast Runs Prevented (20) and OAA (22). FanGraphs has them first (by a lot) in DRS with 38.

Stunning turn here as Romy Gonzalez hits a grand slam to put the Red Sox in front 6-5.
Again, Rob Refsnyder hit a foul pop up that should have ended the inning. The Phillies let it fall in and now six runs have scored.
