A new compilation documents the strange history of the African country’s groove-laden sound, formed following the discovery of a boatload of synths

Imanaga just helped a Cubs fan win the between innings "moundball" game before the 4th by stopping the ball from rolling off the mound with his mitt right before it touched the grass ... the Cubs fan won $1,000💰
Reminder.
Congress established the Department of Justice (DOJ) in 1870 to consolidate federal law enforcement, manage a massive increase in federal litigation following the Civil War, and enforce the civil and voting rights of newly emancipated Black Americans during Reconstruction.

Carson Kelly is the last Chicago Cub to hit for the cycle. He achieved the milestone on March 31, 2025, during an 18-3 victory over the Athletics.
Kelly ended the longest active franchise cycle drought in the National League (which dated back to Mark Grace in 1993)
