1960s civil rights protesters who staged historic sit-in finally have arrest records cleared
Simon Bouie told his mother and grandmother he wasn’t going to get in trouble back in 1960. Then the Black Benedict College student sat at a whites-only lunch counter in South Carolina and got himself arrested.
Finally on Friday, that arrest and the records of six of his friends were erased as a judge signed an order during a ceremony in a Columbia courthouse just a few blocks from where he sat at that segregated table some 64 years before.

Betts appeared incensed at the moment in Game 4, with replays showing that the fans had not only attempted to interfere with his glove, but had grabbed onto his free hand when he attempted to transfer the ball and show the umpire. Torres was deemed out on fan interference and the fans, who identified themselves to ESPN as Austin Capobianco (a season ticket holder) and John Peter, were escorted out of Yankee Stadium by security.

Bob Costas is retiring as an MLB play-caller after a career that lasted more than 40 years.
Costas, 72, called MLB games for 44 years, the vast majority of that with NBC. He started there in 1980 and over the years provides play-by-play for three World Series and 10 championship series. He also expanded beyond baseball, most notably hosting NBC's Olympic coverage for several years. He began calling games for TBS in 2020 following the end of his contract with NBC in 2019.
Costas will also retire from calling games on MLB Network, where he has been since the channel began broadcasting in 2009.
According to Marchand, Costas made the decision to retire from play-by-play work before the 2024 season began, which happened to coincide with the end of his contract with TBS.
