Angry Aurorans and Denverites on social media poked fun at the news media Friday as more information came out about Venezuelan gangs on the Front Range. Aurora Mayor Mike Coffman posted on Facebook that the city will use court orders to shut down additional apartment complexes that have been infiltrated by the gangs. It seemed to contradict comments made by Gov. Jared Polis, who said the gang problem was a figment of Aurora council member Danielle Jurinsky’s imagination.

Chourio is not in the lineup for the second game of Friday's doubleheader in Cincinnati after rolling his right ankle in the first game, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports. Chourio created quite a scare when he injured the ankle as he attempted to beat out an infield single in the fifth inning. He had to be helped off the field, but the rookie outfielder stayed in and finished the contest. Chourio will receive treatment and have some tests just to be safe, but it sounds like he should be fine. Sal Frelick, Blake Perkins and Garrett Mitchell will form the Brewers' outfield trio in the nightcap as they try to sweep the doubleheader.
