Virginia fans of The Young and the Restless have asked where Elena Dawson (Brytni Sarpy) has been. She has not been seen or mentioned in Genoa City for quite a while. There is nothing online about Sarpy's status, and Y&R spoilers for next week do not mention the character, so fans wonder if she has been let go.

According to Shakey's website, this pizza parlor is only in California, North Carolina, and Washington state in the U.S. now. This was my family's go-to pizza joint when my father was stationed with the Air Force outside of Omaha, Nebraska. We liked it so much, that when we were transferred again, it was hopeful we'd find another one.

MIAMI - Ceddanne Rafaela tripled, doubled and drove in three runs, Brayan Bello limited Miami to a run over 6 2/3 innings and the Boston Red Sox beat the Marlins 7-2 on Wednesday night. Rafael Devers and Masataka Yoshida each had two hits and two RBIs to help the Red Sox win their third straight after a three-game slide. In his first start since June 25, Bello (8-5) gave up seven hits, walked one and struck out seven. The right-hander's previous turn was skipped to help him overcome a difficult stretch, when he dropped three of four decisions. Red Sox center fielder Jarren...

The Pirates defeated the Mets by the count of 14-2 (box score here) on Friday night in Pittsburgh. There's an argument to be made it actually looked like a bigger blowout than that, too. The Pirates ended up hitting seven home runs, including two grand slams, while rookie starting pitcher Paul Skenes put together another outstanding outing.

Shohei Ohtani is on track to achieve a feat in the National League that has not been accomplished since 1937, aiming for the Triple Crown by leading in batting average, home runs, and RBIs. Only 18 players have achieved this, with the last NL winner being Joe Medwick in 1937.

Bronx, New York (New York Yankees App) - The Cincinnatti Reds came into this series six games below .500, and managed to sweep the New York Yankees in three games with a 8-4 win at Yankees Stadium on the 4th of July, 2024. The Yankees are now 2.5 behind the Baltimore Orioles, in a race that is always going to be close and every marginal win will mean a lot down the stretch. The Yankees are currently in a rut of bad starts, bad hitting, and medicore at best relief pitching. The Yankees will need to figure it out fast as the hot Boston Red Sox come to the stadium as winners of three in a row.

The New York Mets (42-43) were in the driver’s seat to win another mid-week set, but two straight losses to the Washington Nationals has slightly stunted their positive momentum. Edwin Díaz’s absence in the bullpen was more apparent than ever and has further brought the team’s biggest weakness to light. While he will return from his suspension this weekend, additions to the bullpen will be a priority if the front office chooses to buy at the deadline.
