Jomboy Media posted a clip of the fruitless attempt from the Detroit Tigers slugger to Twitter. The Detroit Tigers and their fans have not been too pleased with their recently underperforming All-Star. Javy Baez currently has a WAR of 0.9, and a batting average of .227.

As the search for Flight 800’s victims continued off Long Island last week, St. Charles and many other air-crash survivors gave grieving relatives a bit of hard-won advice: if you intend to sue for damages, the ugly part is yet to come. Those who sue the airlines and their insurance companies in the wake of a major air disaster are choosing to play hardball in courts. The legal wrangling may take years, and it has nothing to do with justice or compassion....

The issue was brought up during Good Morning Britain, and due to it being Easter Monday, Jesus was used as an example when host Adil Ray questioned Energy Minister Greg Hands....

Having fended off protests against his reign in 2016-17, the long-serving Gunners boss hoped FA Cup success and a new two-year contract would help to shift some of the focus off him. He has, however, fallen under the microscope again this season, with top-four struggles and a forgettable showing in the Carabao Cup final seeing further questions asked of his future.

Eventually I was sent for a type of blood test which used genetic DNA sequencing—a big deal for the early ’90s in Melbourne, Australia. The results came back and the doctors said there was good news. “We know what’s causing your tumors, Chris, we’d like you to see this specialist doctor.” I drove to a place that looked like a lawyer’s office and sat as a specialist revealed my diagnosis in a very brutal way....

Bale: Ronaldo still the best The Gunners have lost to Watford, Chelsea and most recently Liverpool in the Premier League, and were humilated by a 5-1 beating from Bayern Munich in the first-leg of their Champions League Round-of-16 tie last month. Questions surrounding Wenger’s future at the club were followed by reports of a training-ground bust up with Alexis Sanchez, with the Chilean now supposedly wanting out of the club, and widespread rumours in regards to a potential summer exit for Mesut Ozil....

After Tiemoue Bakayoko’s first-half red card, late goals from Daryl Janmaat, Gerard Deulofeu and Roberto Pereyra condemned Conte’s men to another heavy defeat - the first time Chelsea have lost consecutive Premier League games by a margin of at least three goals since 1995 ....

Robertson’s aides say that the CBN money that went into the marketing company came from “investment reserves” rather than donations, and that Robertson, this year, has fully reimbursed CBN with interest. They also note that the original company, American Benefits Plus, has shut down and its successor, KaloVita, is under new management. Nevertheless, the controversy offers a glimpse into the relationship between Robertson’s religious and political organizations and his business interests....

The daily brainteaser helps players along the way by using a color-coded system that sees letters either turn grey if they’re not in the word, yellow if they are in the word but in the wrong place, and green if they are in the right place. But even that might not be enough to figure out the day’s word, and so Newsweek has made a list of hints that could be of use to payers and will help them towards the correct outcome....
