The Yankees needed one man to step up in their darkest hour. They spotted the Dodgers two runs — again — when Freddie Freeman planted one in the right field bleachers — again. A chilly night had turned even colder because now there was a hint of winter lurking on…
It wasn’t flashy. It didn’t draw overflowing praise. It wasn’t the kind of move, like Texas A&M’s previous coaching hire of Jimbo Fisher, that was going to inspire immediate adulation. But sometimes those are the best choices. So far, Mike Elko is looking like a home run, the former Duke…
LOS ANGELES — The richest may get even richer. The Dodgers are halfway to beating the Yankees in the World Series, and word is they have interest in signing Yankees superstar Juan Soto, according to people familiar with their thinking. The Dodgers, already arguably baseball’s best offense — it’s either…
MONTREAL — There is a natural one-track mindedness the Rangers have adopted since falling two wins short of a Stanley Cup Final berth for the second time in three years. It has allowed everything about this 4-0-1 start — the good and the bad — to feel inconsequential. When nothing…

You’re setting yourself up for a lot of trouble if you say that New York has gone on a title-free slide from the moment the Giants walked off the field at Lucas Oil Stadium 21-17 winners over the Patriots on Feb. 5, 2012. There is a fair reason for this….
