NEW YORK — The game still very much in reach in the fifth inning, Andrew Benintendi represented the tying run with two men on base. Eduardo Nunez took his lead off second. It was a big one. And it grew when Yankees starter J.A. Happ threw a slider off the plate. Catcher Gary Sanchez must’ve taken note because he immediately fired a bullet to second that beat Nunez back to the bag. In the middle of the Red Sox’ best chance at a rally, with their No. 2 hitter at the plate, Nunez was picked off to end the inning. Never again did the Sox reach second base. The Yankees scored four runs off Chris Sale and surged to a 4-1 win in a swift game that took just 2 hours, 51 minutes and looked far too easy for the Yanks (37-19), who are starting to run away from the Red Sox (29-28) as the calendar flips to June. In the Sox clubhouse afterward, both Sale and reigning MVP Mookie Betts looked fresh out of answers for another lifeless loss. “It’s just frustrating where we’re at,” Sale said. “We’r

Los Angeles is going down the drain. The city, with a population topping four million and a broader metropolitan area with many millions more, is awash in massive problems — overcrowding, lack of housing, and high demand for free services among them. But other far more serious problems are lurking, Dr. Drew Pinksy said on Thursday. “We have a complete breakdown of the basic needs of civilization in Los Angeles right now,” Pinsky told Fox New host Laura Ingraham. “We have the three prongs of airborne disease, tuberculosis is exploding, rodent-borne. We are one of the only cities in the country that doesn’t have a rodent control program, and sanitation has broken down.” Pinsky said bubonic plague — also known as the “Black Death,” a pandemic that killed off millions in the 14th century — is “likely” already present in Los Angeles. The plague is spread by infected fleas and exposure to bodily fluids from a dead plague-infected animal, with the bacteria entering through the skin and tr
