    CHICAGO — The Chicago White Sox lived a full season through the despair, embarrassment and stigma that comes with being the worst team in the history of baseball. Now, less than a year later, here comes the Colorado Rockies who are threatening to obliterate the White Sox’s modern record of 121 losses.

    LOS ANGELES — Aaron Judge packed his bags Sunday evening, looked around the cramped visiting clubhouse at Dodger Stadum before walking out of the door, and broke into a grin.

    LOS ANGELES — While the Los Angeles Dodgers and New York Yankees are embracing the euphoria of their World reunion at Dodger Stadium, limping out of the Dodgers' clubhouse wearing socks and sandals was one of the game’s biggest stars not named Shohei Ohtani or Aaron Judge. Dodgers shortstop Mookie Betts — the MVP, eight-time All-Star, six-time Gold Glove winner and three-time World Series champion — will be missing all of the festivities, thanks to a freak injury.
