Good Nite LA, Sunday 9/6/2026

Good evening. I'm Susan Hirasuna. Our top story, a powerful Labor Day weekend storm slams the Long Beach Peninsula, bringing massive waves and flooding to the coastline. Fox 11's Matthew Seedorf is live in Long Beach with the latest there. Matthew, what's going on? Well, Susan, things are calming down for now as it's no longer high tide, but just take a look at this. You can still see how close the waves are to this point where we are right now on the boardwalk, but this is from earlier. Look at this destruction, the waves so strong that they ripped it apart and the storm isn't done yet. Hurricane Marie crashing into the California coast with force. Category one storm hundreds of miles offshore, but it's powerful swell surging water into Long Beach. Trying to pretty much move all the water because you have to see some garage got flooded. Homeowners using sandbags and pumps to try and keep garages dry. Drivers and cars looking for high ground. Long Beach firefighters confirming at least a dozen homes on the peninsula impacted by high water. We're still dealing with the swell. We're still dealing with the swell trajectory. We're still dealing with that perfect alignment past the breakwater. Really indescribable. It's kind of sad. A lot of people that are going to lose their homes. The boardwalk, the only thing between Hurricane Marie and these homes, sometimes shooting water two stories high. Take a closer look as this wave shakes the boardwalk like an earthquake. Just as lifeguards try removing sections of the seawall that ripped off. Crazy on that wall. I've seen just eyeballing it, maybe like 20 feet after the smash into the wall. High tides noticeable up and down the coast with heavy rain causing flooding from Van Nuys to Riverside. Many in Long Beach calling this surge historic. I've never seen the waves make it right here. Never. Racing for what could be another two days of impact. The ocean's going to win. We've been fighting the beach for 35 years. They were moving the trucks then. So yeah, it's going to be what it's going to be. Here's a live look from above on Sky Fox tonight. You can still see the massive waves and just how close they are to the homes. And then back out here on the ground, this is a piece of that boardwalk and you can see why it's so dangerous with the nails that are sticking out. And then this is someone's home and then all the sand that's already crashed over this wall right here. Just one of the things that they're concerned about as we move forward into this week. Reporting live tonight in Long Beach, Matthew Seedorf, Fox 11 News. Matthew, do you think it's true that some of these buildings, some of these houses will be destroyed? I don't know about destroyed. We are definitely seeing some damage. According to firefighters, at least 12 homes have been damaged from flooding so far. But I wouldn't be surprised, unfortunately, if there's more damage because this has been pretty intense. Matthew Seedorf, thank you very much from Long Beach. All right, well, rain today had a major effect on the L.A. River. This video from the Citizens app. Fast-moving runoff set water levels dangerously high today, prompting widespread flood advisories across L.A. County. Officials are warning residents to stay clear of the riverbanks until the storm system completely moves out tomorrow. All right, we're going to get a better timeline on that from our meteorologist, Star Harvey. Well, Susan, I can tell you most of us done with that wet weather. We saw it move in earlier today during our overnight early morning hours and did stretch into the second part of our Sunday here. Now, we do still have some of that light precipitation hanging around. We'll show you that shortly. But what I'm going to show you where we have Matthew Seedorf out in the Long Beach area, you'll see included on our alert system here. These alerts stretch up into the Oxnard area through L.A. County and down into the Orange County area as well. We have that coastal flood advisory, which will continue through Tuesday at 11 p.m., as well as our high surf advisory for that same expiration time. Now, here's an active look on where we do still have some of that very light precipitation coming down. You can still see most of this moisture moving on its northeast flow there, and you can see drawing in closer Big Bear, so our mountains and north of, so moving across Barstow along the 15 and 40 freeways, but also down towards the Palm Spring area. Some very light showers. Most of the L.A. basin on dry ground right now, but we also have some of that precipitation moving through the Wrightwood area over and through Victorville as well. Drawing you further to show you, we do still have very light activity out there. Most of us will see this dry up before our night comes to an end, and then there will be some pockets that do hold on to a shower or two chance moving into tomorrow. Otherwise, our temperatures at 67 degrees in Woodland Hills. We're at 71 in San Bernardino, 77 in Santa Ana and Long Beach at about 75 degrees. Our local winds moving at about 5 to 15 miles per hour, and tonight we can expect that our lows dipping down to the upper 60s. We'll have a few low 70s sprinkled in and around the Inland Empire, but also our low deserts and portions of our coastline as well. Tomorrow morning, the L.A. area may be getting some of that cloud to start the day, but otherwise the 6 a.m. hour in the upper 60s to low 70s, and we are expecting our afternoon temperatures to top out in the 80s. We have some heat headed this way, and yes, another shot at some more moisture. I'll have those details coming up for now. Susan, back to you. Every rain is causing problems in the San Bernardino Mountains. In Running Springs, a Dodge Challenger lost control on the slick road and went over the side of Highway 18. The car was found abandoned, so no injuries were reported. Miami International Airport is under a ground stop after an Amazon Boeing 767 cargo plane overran the runway. At least five people were killed. The FAA is investigating. Fox and CB Cotton has more. Shock and panic for many after an Amazon cargo plane barrels off a runway at Miami International Airport. A Boeing Prime Air 767 skidding across the roadway and hitting several cars before bursting into flames. The crash prompting a massive response from Miami Dade Fire Rescue. I was nearby, and I came right here, and I looked and I saw, you know, the tail, and there was a lot of emergency vehicles that said in this direction, it's crazy. Authorities say the wreck left several people trapped inside their cars. Rescue teams had to perform high powered extractions, all while thick smoke and flames burned nearby. We had a very complex fire engine compartments that were on fire, including a search and rescue of the pilot and co-pilot that were trapped in this aircraft. Three people are now in critical condition. Several more have been killed. And while the crash site is not a danger to the public at this time, officials are urging locals to stay away as they deal with the fuel leak. We can confirm that we have at least five deceased individuals, and we have multiple individuals that were transported to local hospitals with unknown injuries. Despite the fire, the plane has remained largely intact, resting on its belly. According to Boeing, it was a passenger plane for decades until it was converted into a cargo plane. At the time of the crash, it was arriving to Miami from San Juan, Puerto Rico. The plane will now likely be studied by the FAA and the NTSB, who will take the lead in finding out the cause of the crash. In New York, CB Cotton, Fox News. An armed man is behind bars after targeting Ohio gubernatorial candidate Dr. Amy Acton at the Canfield Fair today. Police arrested 38-year-old Patrick Havis after he aggressively lunged through a crowd toward Acton, knocking over attendees and injuring multiple people before being tackled by security. Authorities recovered two handguns and a taser on Havis. Acton was not hurt. Havis now faces charges, including assault and disorderly conduct. An abandoned and unfinished house overlooking the San Fernando Valley is the latest problem property to grab the attention of the two candidates for mayor. There's two chains and two locks to keep people off the narrow trail that leads to this house. But from the popular Universal City Overlook, there's an easy access through the chain link fence. It's right under the Universal Overlook, so it's just people come at night and they use it to party. There's graffiti all over it, beer cans and everything. Ted took it upon himself to lock the gate on Mulholland Drive on July 4th, which is totally illegal. You can't lock up someone else's house. But, you know, I figured I was protecting their property anyway. So, you know, from fires and 50 people up there. Down the hill from Ted's, Chris also worries about fire. We're in the hills. There's a lot of dry vegetation and I'm always worried that a spark, anything, a cigarette thrown, just a campfire would blow up the whole neighborhood. A fire at a nearby abandoned property in Studio City brought out the media and both Mayor Karen Bass and the City Council representative Nithya Rahman. After the mayor visited the property on Babcock, the city moved forward to trim the trees and put up permanent fencing. For this property on Mulholland, the mayor's office issued an order that gave the property owner until Monday to remove all waste, rubbish, debris, flammable, combustible or hazardous materials from the interior of the structure, also from the outside the property. The view from Sky Fox shows debris below the house as if the partiers or squatters broke out the windows and threw out whatever was easy to destroy. Ted claims he called the office of his City Council member Nithya Rahman. Well, I did report it to Nithya's office and I never had a response. I called the city then a month later and reported it again and that's when they locked it up and assigned it to somebody like a case worker. I forget. They gave me his name. Rahman's office gave us this statement. Our office has engaged with LADBS on this case. This property is a stark example of exactly the kind of bureaucratic failure our office has been sounding the alarm about. The property was apparently sold about five years ago. We reached out to the registered owner, have not heard back. This rodeo comes with horsepower and a whole lot of trash talk. Republic Services drivers put their big trucks through tight spots at Fairplex and Pomona. The competition tests precision and safety. Gardena's Jesus Lizarez already has two national titles, but ask him what drives him and it sounds a little like a love story. I mean, the trucks are part of my life. You know, I've been doing this for almost 31 years already. So, I mean, this is normal life for me. I mean, to be good in something, you have to love it and I really love my truck. Indeed, we'll talk about a long-term relationship. Jesus says his co-workers bring some tough competition. Drivers also have to check for maintenance problems, putting everyday skills to the test. This Labor Day weekend, the people who pick up our trash get their turn in the spotlight. Well done. We'll be right back. Artificial intelligence is taking the hospitality industry by storm, but while a growing number of businesses are looking for advancement, some are issuing warnings about being too high-tech. Fox News' Marianne Rafferty breaks down how companies are balancing the human connection in this digital age. As summer travel begins to wind down, just think next year's trips could look a little different. With the rise of artificial intelligence, experts say checking in and out of a growing number of hotels is getting contactless and more high-tech. The goal is to really create those experiences. With mobile check-ins and check-outs, you can just imagine people are not even stopping at the front desk anymore. A.J. Alori is an associate professor at West Virginia University. He says AI is changing the game for the hospitality industry. The goal is to really create this conversational AI as a platform to get all the requests done. So, if people want to go directly to their rooms, you can do it, but you do have this conversational AI that connects you with all the amenities in the hotel. This is software company Muse reported last year 70 percent of travelers are likely to skip the front desk and check in themselves. Still, experts advise not taking people out of the equation completely. But the true hospitality only comes from the humans and use AI as needed. Alori believes every hospitality organization needs to build their foundation on something he describes as high touch. Which is that face-to-face conversation, you know, that is the first touch point. Any guest, you know, if you'll go to luxury and upper upscale brands, they look for that high-touch experience. Besides AI, Alori cites advancements with humanoid robots in hotel settings helping with staffing issues. He predicts more physical AI-powered robots will appear across the hospitality and tourism industry within the next three to five years. I'm Marianne Rafferty, Fox News. Rain dampened Labor Day weekend fun in Anaheim. Heavy rain hit earlier today soaking the final holiday weekend of summer. Slippery roads made travel tough for families on last-minute road trips and backyard barbecues likely a no-go too. The gloomy weather has left many wondering what's in store for tomorrow? Night LA weather is sponsored by the law offices of Larry H Parker. Well, I can answer that question for you, Susan. We are expecting that our rain is officially done as of tomorrow for most of the area. We may still have some cities or regions that do hold on to maybe a shower or two at times tomorrow. As far as what's happening out there right now, I do want to talk about some rain totals because it was pouring down in some areas earlier today. Here's a look at our 24-hour rain totals. These numbers did cut off at the 7 p.m. hour, so you can see areas like Bel Air did catch 1.5 inches of rain there. Northridge, right behind them, over an inch of rain accumulated. Culver City also over an inch. Santa Monica pulled up right behind the Culver City area, almost getting to about an inch, and Long Beach did accumulate close to about three-quarters of an inch. We do still have some of that light precipitation still moving across the area, still pushing off to the northeast there with that flow drawing you into some of the waters here, wanting to show you exactly what's happening with Marie. Now, that system not right at our coastline here, not knocking there. We are still tracking it well offshore, over several hundred miles away, still hanging around there in the Pacific. Some good news about this storm system is that it has also weakened, so we're no longer calling it Hurricane Marie. It has weakened to a tropical storm system with those winds pushing at about 70 miles per hour, continuing on its northwest track at about six miles per hour. And still, with this storm system sitting so far away and weakening, we do still have the issue of that southerly swell. It will bring the impacts to our coast. These impacts did kick off yesterday and will carry through Tuesday, so we're looking at the potential depending on where you are. According to our screen here, we do have some of those waves that will continue to hit up to several feet at times, and we also have the chance for that very strong rip current risk hanging around as well. Now, our coastal flood advisory also went into effect yesterday and will extend through at least Tuesday. This is a look into our high tide cycle. Yesterday it began at 5 p.m., today at 6 p.m., and there are areas, I keep bringing you back to Seal Beach because we did see a lot of that water pushing up there across the boardwalk during those cycles. And so, very likely to see some of that activity happening as we push into our work week. So, pointing out that tide cycle moving into tomorrow evening at the 7 p.m. hour, and then Tuesday, we're expecting it to be at the 8 p.m. hour, where we could see the risk of that minor to moderate flooding because of it. Now, here's a look at the futurecast, breaking down how much rain we may still see getting through the rest of this evening. I have us fast-forwarded here through tonight. You'll see that as we push into our overnight hours, we do still have a strip or a band of precipitation showing up on our model here, and it is likely, according to our models, that we may still see, or I'd say a shot or two, of some of that light shower activity passing across some of the area. But what you do also notice here, according to our model, is that most of us are expected to get our work week started dry and get through most of our Monday on the drier side. It is when we arrive at Tuesday as well as Wednesday that we may have another shot at that moisture. But the bigger story this work week will be the fact that we are expecting those temperatures to heat up once again. The heat is on Tuesday through at least Thursday. Of course, I'll be back with a better look at that in your seven-day forecast. Of course, we'll be right back after this break as well. Well, with the weather on the holiday, it's a good weekend to watch a movie. Film critic Gray Drake stopped by to chat about this weekend's new releases with Fox 11's Glenn Walker. Onslaught is a new slasher horror movie hitting theaters. Is it good for all audiences or just for the fans of the genre? For that, we bring in CBR.com's movie critic Gray Drake. Good to see you. Hello. All right, so what about Onslaught? All right, get ready. Buckle your safety belts because we've got super soldiers that are on the loose, okay? There's only one person who could possibly stop them and that is the very talented Adria Arjona. She is from the TV show Andor and she may be our next Wonder Woman. It's rumored. So she's more than capable as Celeste who has some PTSD issues from being a military person. She's trying to hold it together for the sake of her child, but man, these soldiers come to her trailer park and they mess with the wrong gal. So what are these soldiers? Robots or what? Yeah, they're, I mean, almost. They're almost reanimated humans with robot elements and like the bottom line is you can't trust them and you need to get rid of them at whatever the cost and that's exactly what everyone does. This is a super violent movie, but it is done with a sense of fun. Hopefully that doesn't make me sound some kind of way, but ultimately a fun time at the movies if you're a fan of movies that are like simple, elegant, violent, violent and elegant, all in the same. That's interesting. All right, next one is Mayday. This starts with some familiar names, Ryan Reynolds and Kenneth Branagh. Yeah, so back in 1987, the United States and Russia were not friends. They were right in the middle of the Cold War, okay? So when Ryan Reynolds playing a fighter pilot crashes behind enemy lines, he gets saved by ex-KGB played by Kenneth Branagh. And so basically their whole, the whole movie is just them trying to get him away from Russia, okay? And so this is like fish out of water, buddy cop. They're both so different. Are they ever going to learn how to be friends? And the two of them are such good actors that they make it work. So this one is like kind of a middle of the road. I was like, oh, this is a good streaming pick on Apple TV. Okay. All right, next one is Deadpoint, a psychological thriller. Okay, so this is a sequel. Now, are you concerned about heights? You? Personally, no. Oh, then you're allowed to see this, okay? This isn't going to nerve you too much, but for the rest of us. You're scared of heights, obviously. Yeah, it's rough. So now this is a young lady who her sister has passed because in the first full movie, she did a stunt. It went horribly wrong, right? But in this film, when, as she's grieving, she runs into her, a friend, question mark? And she convinces her to go to Thailand and do something called a plank walk, where there are just planks attached to a very high mountain. Okay, that I wouldn't do. Okay. Okay, good, good. People think that's fun. I don't, my idea of a vacation is a pool and a cocktail, but anyways. Yeah. So this is not for the faint of heart because the effects are very, very good. And that is the bulk of the film, is just what happens when you decide to go on the world's worst vacation ever. Oh, Lord. So I guess they use a lot of green screen in this one. There is a lot of green screen and the filmmakers went to a certain amount of trouble to put everyone high up enough that the actors were frightened. Okay. So there's a little bit of method in there. And I couldn't tell the difference. And I was, I was just praying for the end of this movie because it made me very uncomfortable, very effective. Well, hopefully a safety net or at least a mattress. Absolutely. Okay. All right. So that's two movies in the theater and one on Apple. Yep. All right. Good deal. CBR.com's greater eight. Good to see you. I'll be here on the ground. Yes, you will. And I'll be right there with you. Welcome back. Here's a look at some of today's top stories. The family of teenager Celeste Rivas Hernandez wants the death penalty for the singer accused of killing her. They tell the California post they support execution for David whose full name is David Anthony Burke. LA County prosecutors haven't decided whether to seek the death penalty. Celeste would have turned 16 tomorrow. A wrong way crash on the 91 freeway in Riverside leaves one person dead, several others injured. It happened this morning near university Avenue. The CHP says a wrong way driver caused the multi-car collision, though the exact number of vehicles and injuries hasn't been confirmed as yet. The accident shut down multiple lanes, closing the freeway for several hours. An Oxnard man is dead after a fiery crash in Ventura early this morning. Police say his vehicle hit palm trees in the median on Harbor Boulevard, south of Olivas Park Drive. He was the only person inside. Investigators say speed appears to be a factor. Sky Fox over Long Beach, where powerful waves are making this holiday weekend anything but relaxing. One visitor came from Palm Springs to fish. He didn't expect weather like this. Neighbors on the peninsula had their own surprise, water rushing onto the boardwalk. Fox 11's Rachel Aragon has their stories. We live down out of the peninsula a little further. It's been an unusual Labor Day weekend for those in Long Beach. This is video shared on social media from Saturday, showing the water rushing up onto the boardwalk near 64th Place. Never seen all the plywood get destroyed in front of the homes before. While Hurricane Marie remains far from southern California, it's impacting the coastlines with powerful swells, high surf and the potential for flooding. So we're taking every precaution we can to protect the citizens of Long Beach. The Long Beach Fire Department's Marine Safety Battalion chief saying that means keeping a close eye on those out on the water as the city continues to reinforce and build up the berm near the peninsula. They're moving sand to help protect the peninsula and doing everything they can to move as much sand over in the 62nd Place area. We just came fishing. We actually came from Palm Springs. Families visiting Long Beach still in disbelief of the rain and rip currents on Sunday. Did you ever think weather like this for southern California? No, definitely not. Specifically this time of year, I did not expect something like this. The Long Beach Fire Department reminding people to be proactive, especially by thinking of getting in the water over the next few days. Ask the local lifeguards, whether it's here in Long Beach or any one of our beautiful beaches down the coast. Talk to the lifeguards, find out what's going on. In Long Beach, Rachel Aragon, Fox 11 News. Well, for many children, learning to read can sometimes come with the challenge of not having the access to those books. So I did have the opportunity to go into South L.A. and visit one of the schools that does have the opportunity to mix and mingle with an organization bringing in some of those books. Here's a look. I grew up right down the street. For these students in South L.A., sometimes opening a book can open an entire world. Reading is very important to me because if I didn't read, then I wouldn't have my imagination because I would like to read a lot of storybooks, which give me a visual of worlds that don't exist. At St. Aloysius Gonzaga School, that love of reading is something educators are working to early. I've been teaching 20 years and I can say that literacy is crucial. It's crucial to building a foundation where a child can be receptive to new knowledge and be able to learn more about the world around them and to have an open mind. And today, books are also competing for their attention. I feel that as a society, we have lost that connection to books and to literacy. So much content is delivered to children visually and through audio, video, all kinds of, you know, reels and algorithms and auto plays. The author of the book is myself. But in communities like this one, building that foundation can come with challenges. I know reading is not top of it, but we are making it top of it. So that's why we have those back to school nights, those literacy nights that we have here, and we welcome our parents and families to teach them how to be those literacy partners at home. One, two, three, big smiles. It's why Gordon Philanthropies is working to help close that gap, putting books directly into the hands of children who need them. We wanted to create opportunities for students, regardless of where they lived, regardless of their economic situation, to be able to learn, to support what was going on in their learning experience so that they could have better opportunities for their future. Since 2021, the organization has distributed more than one million books across California. And Gordon says the mission comes down to something simple. We're here to basically give our children better opportunities and a better life than we have. How do you go about doing that? You can do it any number of ways, but it all basically comes back to ensuring that every child has access to a quality education. Parents here say they're already watching that investment pay off. Seeing your child put those words together and just read it, read it right off the page, it's just amazing. It's such a satisfying feeling to see your child grow. And literacy, it's important. I'm dressed as a meteorologist, like the lady on TV. For Gonzalez, that growth has always shown up in her daughter's confidence. She did a reading for mass, and that was in front of the parish community, the school community. And just seeing her go up there and read it in front of everyone, I was so proud of her. She was so brave. She was so confident. And parents say building those skills at home doesn't have to take hours. As a parent, I know it's hard to find that time to sit with your kids and do that one-on-one reading. But I think sacrificing 30 minutes a day at least to grab a book and read with them, it makes such a difference. A difference Gutierrez says goes beyond the page. It's going to help them build their confidence. It's going to help them grow academically. And at the end, I think every parent wants the best for their kids. Confidence you can hear in the students themselves. I got better at reading because reading is really fun, and I've been practicing at my house. I feel more confident because of how much I've read more, and it makes me feel confident to stand up and not get the wording wrong. Yes, good job. You guys are so smart. Oh my goodness. A really big thank you to Gordon Philanthropies, but also to St. Aloysius Gonzaga School for the invitation to come out and see how they are helping these children put the books in hands and how important literacy is. So believe in everything you're doing and wishing you the luck throughout this school year. Let's go ahead and focus on some wet weather. We had plenty of it today. We'll start off with a live look out into the San Fernando Basin there. This is a look up top Mount Wilson. Drier conditions than how we started off our Sunday. In fact, I'm going to go ahead and show you a look at our satellite and radar. So this system here is running over the last 24 hours, and we'll go ahead and break it in where most of that rain did arrive really early in the morning. We got that first wave around 3 a.m. again at 9 a.m. this morning, but the rain didn't stop there. In fact, we had those light to moderate showers throughout the region, and then we had that last bout of big precipitation moves through around the five o'clock hour this evening. The good news is that as they bring you to an active look at to what's happening out there right now, most of us are under those drier conditions. We do still have some light shower activity, most of that off to the east of L.A. So across, I'd say, the Victorville area, but also down into our mountains and low deserts. We do have maybe some sprinkles showing up across the area. Otherwise, that rain is wrapping up for most of us tonight. It is likely that some of us may see a pop-up shower or two as we arrive at tomorrow, but most of us are expected to be under drier conditions. What will still be impacted is going to be our coast. So we are still looking at that southerly swell causing impacts like that high surf advisory, the dangers for our rip current risk, but also that coastal flooding. And then we are also looking at a heat up this week, that heat due to arrive for us Tuesday and stick around through at least Thursday. We did get a nice break from the heat today. In fact, our temperatures with all of that rain moving through for the downtown L.A. area came in at 76 degrees. It's been a while since we've seen those temperatures fall that short of their normal, which is 84 degrees around this time. I do want to focus our attention back towards Marie. It has weakened from a major hurricane status down to tropical storm, and that system will stay out at water on its northwest track, but we are still stuck with our alerts through Tuesday. How about the rain? We'll talk about how dry we've been. In fact, before our rain totals came in today, we went 147 days without measurable rain in the downtown L.A. area. The last time it rained was back on April 12th, and we saw about 0.31 inches, so slightly over a quarter inch of a rain, and then you can see there the longest streak that we did have was back in 1997. Now, we went about 219 days without any measurable rain. I can tell you that today's numbers not included in our rain totals, but you can see we do still have that surplus of over four inches, closer to about five inches, and we do have another shot at some light rain that possibly moving through come Tuesday and Wednesday this week. Otherwise, shooting for 85 degrees tomorrow and a nice little heat up as we arrive at the middle of this week. Now, we're going to go ahead and send things over to sports with Jerrod. Superstar, thank you. Good evening. Coming up, Shohei Ohtani takes a step towards returning, and the Rams get set for their week one clash against the Niners down under, but first, tonight's Pechanga Sports poll question. Which NFL week one matchup are you most excited for? Niners, Rams, Patriots, Seahawks, Cardinals, Chargers, Bills, Texans, Cowboys, Giants, or Commanders, Eagles? Head to foxla.com and cast your vote. The results coming up at the end of sports. Fox 11 Sports Desk is sponsored by Pechanga Resort Casino. Welcome back. Dodger superstar Shohei Ohtani missing his fourth straight game tonight as he continues to battle knee and biceps issues. Manager Dave Roberts says Ohtani is trending towards a return tomorrow as a designated hitter. However, it's unlikely he returns to the mound this year to pitch. Meanwhile, Dalton Rushing placed on the injured list. He will not catch again this year, though he could return as a hitter only. Stormy night at the ravine. Dodgers playing for a much-needed sweep of the Nationals. Not the best outing from Justin Wroblewski. Tied at one in the fourth. Washington with two aboard. Harry Ford drives the offering over the head of Teoscar Hernandez and left. Brady Howe scores. Daylon Lyle motoring towards the plate. He beats the relay home. Wroblewski allows four runs in three-plus innings. Dodgers starting to rally in the fifth, trailing 4-1, man on first. Last night's hero Tommy Edmond turns on the fastball, ripping the pitch down the left field line. Max Muncy on his horse. He will score, and the Dodgers cut the deficit to 4-2. Will Smith made it a one-run game with an RBI single, and now with two outs, runners on the corners. Teoscar Hernandez smokes a hot grounder. Nassim Nunez gets a glove on it but can't make the play. Smith scores, and we are tied at four apiece. Bobby Miller back on the mound in the sixth for the first time since last May, but with the bases loaded, he hits Dylan Cruz in the elbow. Nationals retake the lead 5-4. Miller pitched a scoreless seventh, and now in the eighth, he gets some help from the defense. Ford barrels his pitch to deep right. Kyle Tucker, back at the wall, leaps and makes the grab. Home run robbery, keeping the game a one-run affair. Mookie Betts, a chance to play the hero in the home half. Two on, two out, and number 50 makes them say, wow. Then will Deion fastball crush? 384 feet, a no-doubt go-ahead three-run bomb. His 18th of the year. Dodgers come from behind to win it again, 7-5 for a fourth straight victory. It means the world, especially a Sunday night game, to see all the people out here coming. I mean, I hope you guys have a great day tomorrow not going to work. Rubber match between the Angels and Pirates at PNC Park. Walbert Urena made only one mistake all day, and Henry Davis makes him pay right here. Sinker hammered down the left field line for a solo shot. Urena threw his first complete career, first career complete game. That was the only run he gave up. Halos trying to get to Paul Skeens in the fifth. Man on first, Mike Trout drives the pitch to left center, hustling for the double. Zagnetto heads for the plate, and he is out. Angels lose a tough one, 1-0, dropping the series. It is officially game week for the Rams as they get set for their season opener Thursday night against the 49ers down in Melbourne, Australia. While the Niners are already down under, the Rams spent the day working out in the rain in Woodland Hills. Sean McVay trying to treat this like a normal game week and purposely flying out late on Tuesday to avoid jet lag. That means flying Tuesday night, arriving Thursday in Melbourne for a game that will take place locally Friday morning. Sunday, kind of like a Wednesday for us in our world. Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, hop on the plane and go. And I don't know, you know, we obviously have experience with it, doing it different direction, all that kind of stuff. I understand last year in London, but it felt like it worked out for us. Guys felt ready to play. What gives me confidence is I'm not going to really make it a big deal. It's hey, this is what the reality is. We've got a long way to go, but let's be ready to rock when that three-hour window that we're allotted comes. It's always a little bit different playing in a different country, so it'll be fun. I know it'll be a lot of people in attendance. It's supposed to be like 100,000 or something like that, so that'll be cool. I think once you get to playing in just a college-sized stadium, it doesn't really feel much different for the people playing in the game, but it'll be a lot of support in there, so it'll be fun. Rams getting healthier ahead of the opener. Myles Garrett returned to practice today after missing weeks battling a sore left knee. Aaron Donald also participated, although his week one status is still up in the air. Nothing official yet as he works back from retirement.

Number nine Ole Miss in 24th ranked Louisville facing off in the only week one matchup of ranked teams. Pick it up in the third. Ole Miss trailing 13-10. Trinidad Chambliss tossing the dart to Deuce Alexander. He turns on the burners down the sidelines. Bye-bye. 62 yards for the touchdown. Rebels retake the lead 17-13. Ole Miss would stretch that advantage to 38-24 in the fourth, but Louisville's not done. Lincoln Keinholz, deep shot down the sideline to LaWayne McCoy. Watch him make a guy miss, fight his way into the zone. An amazing 54-yard score just like that. The cards within a score down 38-31. Louisville would get another opportunity. Driving into the red zone, Keinholz putting the team on his back, racing on the QB keeper around the right side into the end zone, and we're tied up at 38 apiece with a minute and a half left on the clock. Well, that's too much time for Ole Miss' offense. They drive down the field setting up Lucas Carnero with the 48-yard attempt, and he is good money. Ole Miss wins a thriller in the season opener 41-38. Finally, results to our Pechanga sports poll question of the night. Which NFL week one matchup are you most excited for?
