MLB power rankings: Red-hot Astros look unstoppable as All-Star break nearsNew Foto - MLB power rankings: Red-hot Astros look unstoppable as All-Star break nears

Perhaps theHouston Astrostruly are unstoppable. After dispatching two of their bedrock players inAlex BregmanandKyle Tuckerlast winter, they got off to an appropriately middling start that suggested their revamped lineup might have, finally, lost too many pieces from their championships in 2017 and 2022. Yet look who's nearly atop USA TODAY Sports' power rankings. Despite losing All-Star shortstop Jeremy Peña to a rib injury this week, and missing slugger Yordan Alvarez for almost all of the first half, the Astros continued their stunning roll toward the break, dealing theLos Angeles Dodgerstheirworst loss everat Chavez Ravine as if it were the late 2010s all over again. And after a road sweep of their old adversaries, the team many love to hate has won 24 of its last 32 games, completing a startling five-week rise from No. 12 to No. 2 inpower rankings the rankings. With All-Star ace Hunter Brown andshould-be All-StarFramber Valdez fronting the rotation, the club may put the American League West to bed by the trade deadline. Soon enough, they may have the No. 1 Tigers in their sights. A look at our updated rankings: The D is taking over The A, with Tarik Skubal the likely All-Star starter backed byrejuvenated veterans. Jose Altuve slams three home runs at Dodger Stadium, thrilling the locals. Should soon have a reunion with the Blakes - Snell and Treinen heading out on rehab assignments. What a weekend at Wrigley: An eight-homer game and a gem fromAll-Star Matt Boyd. Zack Wheeler named pitcher of month - then twirls a one-hit, 12-strikeout gem. What a return for Brandon Woodruff, whobeats Marlinsin first outing since September 2023. How did they vault to the top of the AL East? Arguably the most dominant bullpen in the AL, for one. Pete Alonso already has 46 extra-base hits. Clarke Schmidt'selbow injuryadds to an even heavier trade deadline to-do list. Ha-Seong Kim is back, and infield depth is enviable. Manny Machado two hits shy of joining 2,000 club. They're calling Brendan Donovan "Donnie All-Star." Players' vote really nailed it sending Randy Rodriguez - perhaps NL's best reliever - to All-Star Game. Julio Rodriguez takes a .695 OPS into All-Star Game. Hunter Greeneset to start rehab assignment Tuesday. Huge boost from Lucas Giolito, who has 0.83 ERA over his past five starts. After a six-year absence, Jacob deGrom once again an All-Star. WithEugenio Suarez and Zac Gallenin hand, perhaps the most volatile team leading up to trade deadline. Sometimes off-season pitching additions work out: Yusei Kikuchi is an All-Star. Georgia man Byron Buxton is heading to his second All-Star Game. Carlos Santana will be a nice pickup for a contender needing a bat. Seth Lugo, another should-be All-Star, looking like strong candidate to opt out after the season. Trevor Rogers provides trade deadline dividend - just a year after he was traded. Marcell Ozuna batting .159 with one homer in past 30 games. Kyle Stowers is an All-Star – and he oughta do the Home Run Derby, too. Hey, they passed the Nationals. They fire their security blankets - and a very uncertain future looms. Luis Severino's given up the second-most earned runs in the game - 48 of the 64 yielded in Yolo County. They win two of three against Rockies, likely locking in pecking order for future Power Rankings. Hey, at least Hunter Goodman is a legit - not a courtesy - All-Star pick.

Why is Wimbledon blaming human error for a mistake by its new electronic line-calling system?New Foto - Why is Wimbledon blaming human error for a mistake by its new electronic line-calling system?

LONDON (AP) — The All England Club, somewhat ironically, is blaming "human error" for a glaring mistake by theelectronic system that replaced human line judgesthis year atWimbledon. The CEO of the club, Sally Bolton, said Monday that the technology was "inadvertently deactivated" by someone for three points at Centre Court duringAnastasia Pavlyuchenkova's three-set victory over Sonay Kartala day earlier in the fourth round. On one point, a shot by Kartal clearly landed past the baseline but wasn't called out by the automated setup — called Hawk-Eye — because it had been shut off. Hours after Bolton spoke with reporters, the club issued a statement to announce that it "removed the ability for Hawk-Eye operators to manually deactivate the ball tracking," meaning "this error cannot now be repeated due to the system changes we have made." Bolton declined to say who made the mistake on Sunday or how, exactly, it occurred or whether that person would face any consequences or be re-trained. She did note that there were other people at fault: the chair umpire, Nico Helwerth, and two who should have let him know the system was temporarily down — the review official and the Hawk-Eye official. "We didn't need to put line judges back on the court again," Bolton said. "We needed the system to be active." Is Wimbledon using AI for line calls this year? No. But like most big tennis tournaments nowadays —the French Open is one notable exception— Wimbledon has replaced its line judges with cameras that are supposed to follow the balls on every shot to determine whether they land in or out. There are those, particularly in the British media, who keep referring to this as part of the ever-increasing creep of AI into day-to-day life, but Bolton objected to the use of that term in this case. "The point I would want to emphasize — and perhaps contrary to some of the reporting we've seen — is it's not an artificial intelligence system. And it is electronic in the sense that the camera-tracking technology is set up to call the lines automatically, but it requires a human element to ensure that the system is functional," Bolton said. "So it is not AI. There are some humans involved. And in this instance, it was a human error." What happened on the missed call at Wimbledon? Russia's Pavlyuchenkova was one point from winning a game for a 5-4 lead in the first set against Britain's Kartal on Sunday when a shot by Kartal landed long. But there was no ruling from Hawk-Eye. After a delay, Helwerth decided the point should be replayed, which Pavlyuchenkova thought showed bias toward an opponent competing in her home country. With Hawk-Eye back up and running after a delay, Kartal won that game, but Pavlyuchenkova took that set and the match. The All England Club looked into what happened and found that the line-calling system actually was off for three points before anyone noticed. The system itself worked "optimally," Bolton said repeatedly. "In this instance, sadly," she said, "it was the human part of the operation that made a mistake." Why was the Hawk-Eye system accidentally turned off during a match? Bolton said the system is shut down between matches — "and the humans are the people that need to do the activating and deactivating" — and someone accidentally did so during Pavlyuchenkova vs. Kartal. Asked why, Bolton responded: "Well, I don't know. It was a mistake, obviously. ... I wasn't sat there, so I don't know what happened." She said Helwerth could have made a ruling himself on the controversial non-call, the way he did on the prior pair of points, but instead just decided to pause the match. "I'm assuming," Bolton said, "he felt he had not seen it properly." Pavlyuchenkova said after the match the official told her he thought the ball was out. What do players think about the use of technology at Wimbledon? Players are divided on whether there even should be electronic rulings during matches — unless it is fool-proof — or whether there should be a return to Wimbledon's old way of doing things. Since 2007 through last year, there was a combination of the human touch and technology: There were line judges on court to make calls, but players were allowed to challenge and ask for a video replay of a point if they thought there was a mistake. "It's such a big match, big event," Pavlyuchenkova said. "Since we have already automatic line-calling and so much invested into this, we should probably look into something else to have better decisions." ___ Associated Press writer Mattias Karén contributed to this report. ___ Howard Fendrich has been the AP's tennis writer since 2002.

Cierra Ortega exits 'Love Island USA' days before finale amid racism backlashNew Foto - Cierra Ortega exits 'Love Island USA' days before finale amid racism backlash

"Love Island USA" contestantCierra Ortegahas left the villa, days after past social media posts using a racial slur surfaced online. The Peacock reality series announced a week before theSeason 7 finalethat Ortega, 25, had left due to a "personal" situation, leaving fellow contestant Nic Vansteenberghe officially single. But online, viewers had resurfaced multiple posts of Ortega using a racist slur against Asian people, including one as recently as 2023, according toPeople. USA TODAY has reached out to Peacock for comment. Early the night of Sunday, July 6, Ortega's parents released a statement on herInstagramstories on her behalf, noting Ortega and her loved ones have been threatened and sent "cruel messages." "This has been one of the most painful weeks of our lives. We've seen the posts, the headlines, the hurt and the hate. And while Cierra hasn't seen any of it yet, we have. And so have the people who love her," the statement read. "We're not here to justify or ignore what's surfaced. We understand why people are upset, and we know accountability matters." When is the finaleof 'Love Island USA' Season 7? The post continued: "The attacks on her family, her friends, even her supporters, it's heartbreaking. It's uncalled for. And no one deserves that kind of hate, no matter what mistake they've made." "Love Island" contestants do not have contact with the outside world while on the series, including access to their phones. Ortega's parents said that though she has left the villa, she has not returned home yet. "She hasn't had the chance to process any of this or speak for herself. But we know our daughter. We know her heart. And when she returns, we believe she'll face this with honesty, growth, and grace," the post continued. 'Love Island USA' star Yulissa Escobarapologizes after sudden exit over racial slur Ortega's exit comes weeks after another contestant,Yulissa Escobar, was abruptly ousted from the villa, similarly with little explanation from Season 7 producers. Fans of the show were in an uproar over resurfacedclipsof her using a racial epithet on a podcast. Sheapologized days afterthe video surfaced, saying at the time she didn't fully understand "the weight, history, or pain behind it."

Ricky Hatton, 46, to make boxing comeback 13 years after his last fightNew Foto - Ricky Hatton, 46, to make boxing comeback 13 years after his last fight

MANCHESTER, England (AP) — Ricky Hatton, the 46-year-old former two-weight world champion, will return to the ring to fight in the United Arab Emirates in December, 13 years after he retired. The Manchester native, who turns 47 in October, will face Eisa Al Dah in Dubai on Dec. 2, it has been announced. Hatton (45-3) has not fought since losing in his last comeback bout to Vyacheslav Senchenko in November 2012. "Fight! Fight! Fight! It's official," Hatton posted on X. He won world titles at welterweight and light-welterweight, with his other two losses coming against pound-for-pound greats Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao. He is the latest former champion to announce a comeback long after retirement in a growing market for such events, withPacquiao, Mike Tyson, Roy Jones Jr. andJulio César ChávezJr. all making lucrative returns. Al Dah, also 46, has not fought since 2021 and only once since 2012. But he was adamant it will be action packed. "It will not be like theMike Tyson-Jake Paul fight," Al Dah said. It will be a true fight. True action and I will do my best." Hatton became a British sporting hero after winning epic battles against Kostya Tszyu, José Luis Castillo and Paulie Malignaggi. They earned him clashes with Mayweather and Pacquiao — but both ended in knockout defeats. He retired for the first time after his brutal second round knockout defeat against Pacquiao in 2009, but returned more than three years later and fought Ukrainian Senchenko at the Manchester Arena. That fight also ended in defeat with a ninth-round stoppage that left Hatton in tears. Since retiring, Hatton has trained other fighters in his Manchester gym. He said he hoped his fight would lead to more being staged in Dubai. "There's a market for it," he said, "and I think it'll be a sensational evening." ___ James Robson is athttps://twitter.com/jamesalanrobson

Danny Feld/Disney General Entertainment Content via Getty The actor clarifies that he would consider the role as if it were a brand-new opportunity. "If forDesperate Housewives, if that were to come back — [...] and if they would even want me to come back — I'd have to look at the role and kind of get a sense of what they're thinking about for the character," he explains. He adds, "So I would approach it like if it were something completely new and weigh how I feel about the role, and the character, and the process and everything, you know? I would treat it like it were, you know, something else [new] that had come to me and make my judgment on that." TheSex and the City actorshares that he went through a similar process when deciding to reprise his role as Special Agent Dale Cooper in the cult-favoriteTwin Peaks, which initially ran from 1990 to 1991 and aired a third season in 2017. "The thing about returning toTwin Peakswas that[creator] David [Lynch]decided to not really pick it up from where we left off and to create a completely different journey for the character," he says, adding, "And I got to do a couple [of] different characters in the reboot."
