It would’ve been easy to quit on that play, but like I said, Mikey has this innate understanding of the game.”Charlotte FC (1-3-4, 7 points) controlled large stretches of the opening half as Colorado’s William Yarbrough was forced into a couple of tight spots, but nothing he co...1 killed after suspect opens fire in South Los Angeles

(KRON) -- The New York Mets made a trip across the country to take on the A's in Oakland. Although the Mets won 17-6 in Friday's series opener, the road team's broadcast team might've been the loser that night.Due to a possum, SportsNet New York (SNY) broadcasters Gary Cohen and Ron Darling were moved out of the designated broadcast booth for the visiting team, the two said during Friday's telecast.
