Former The Voice contestant Parijita Bastola will sing the national anthem at M&T Bank Stadium on Saturday , ahead of the Baltimore Ravens’ NFL playoff clash against the Houston Texans. Nepali-American teenager a history maker Bastola, who is from Severna Park, Maryland, became the first Nepali-American to compete on The Voice when she appeared in season 22 of NBC’s reality-TV singing show in late 2022. Then just 17, Bastola finished up as a Top 8 finalist during a com Pet ition run in which she took the chance to promote Nepalese culture, most notably performing in traditional clothing from the Asian nation . “Nepal’s not a country that most people know about, and there’s not much Nepalese representation on TV or in media,” Bastola told an interview with People magazine in November 2022. “So I think it’s super cool that I’m able to talk about my family and the clothes that I wear on the show. It’s allowing me to be myself, and in doing so, I’m able to teach a lot of Americans a...

With 21 points splitting factory Ducati rider Bagnaia and Pramac’s Martin coming into this weekend’s finale, Bagnaia could have won the championship in the sprint by outscoring his rival by at least four points. Despite leading early on, Bagnaia could only finish fifth as Martin stormed through to win and trimmed his points deficit to 14 going into Sunday’s grand prix. Bagnaia says he made a mistake by choosing the medium compound tyre for Saturday’s sprint, but is confident he can perform well on Sunday. The defending champion also feels Martin will face a tougher task in the decider , knowing he must win with Bagnaia finishing outside the top five to snatch the title . Asked about the pressure he was feeling, Bagnaia said: “The pressure is on both, I think. “I think [Jorge] will be also more in trouble than today, because with 21 points it’s different compared to 14 and knowing that he have to win and don’t have to make mistakes. Me too, the same. ...

A 3-run third inning was all that the Texas Rangers would need last night to pull out a victory and pull ahead 2-1 in the 2023 MLB World Series. Tonight in Game 4, the Rangers look to starting pitcher Andrew Heaney, while the Arizona Diamondbacks start fellow left-hander Joe Mantiply in what’s slated as a bullpen game. If you don’t have the time to catch all 9 innings tonight, or simply want some action on a quick-hitting bet, look no further than the YRFI/NRFI market. We’re 3-0 on YRFI/NRFI picks in the World Series and looking to stay perfect tonight in Game 4. Texas Rangers vs Arizona Diamondbacks: YRFI (-130) So far in this World Series, we’ve seen just 2 first-inning runs, both coming from the Rangers in Game 1, but with tonight’s Game total opening at 9.5 runs, I’m expecting the offenses to shine through, particularly in the early innings. Left-hander Joe Mantiply will start this Game for the D-backs in similar fashion to Game 4 against the Phillies in the NLCS. Mant...

All of the sudden, there are two division winners with their backs up against the wall in a win or go home game. Tuesday’s wild card game ones brought some fantastic pitching in three of the games and a home run barrage in the fourth game. Each win was convincing enough that it is almost difficult to see the losing teams bounce back, but that is the beauty of the postseason. Anything can happen. With each game being an opportunity to clinch on Wednesday, today’s playoff baseball will be loaded with drama.

Divisional tiebreakers are being set and teams are prepping for the final stretch run. Today’s slate provides baseball fans with plenty of intriguing matchups, and there are plenty of angles to attack in the betting markets as a result. Today’s featured play involves the AL Central leading Twins and their tough matchup. Let’s dive in! Eduardo Rodriguez (DET) over 5.5 strikeouts (+105) Odds available at BetMGM Sports book at time of initial post to Twitter. Playable to -120 odds. I took this same prop in Rodriguez’s last start against the Pittsburgh Pirates and unfortunately lost with the left-hander landing exactly on 5 strikeouts. A slow first inning hiked his pitch count and set him behind pace early, and 2 missed 3rd strikes from home plate umpire Roberto Ortiz at the end of his outing kept him under t...
