Spain needed a response after their shock draw with Cape Verde, and they have delivered just that. Luis de la Fuente’s side go into half-time three goals to the good against Saudi Arabia at Atlanta Stadium, with a first-half performance of devastating quality that has left the Green Falcons shell-shocked and this Group H tie already looking very much over.

The transactions are a clean reversal from June 13, when Andujar was (retroactively) placed on the IL with a left hamstring strain and San Diego selected Solak’s contract from Triple-A El Paso.  Andujar’s strain ended up being pretty minor, and thus Solak’s time in the organization could possibly be over after four Major League appearances. Solak had just one hit and one walk over 10 plate appearances, translating to a .443 OPS.  His numbers in…

You found a box of tea bags at the back of the cupboard that expired two years ago. There is also a pitcher of iced tea you brewed three days ago sitting in the fridge, and you vaguely remember making a jar of sun tea last weekend that might still be on the counter.

You also have a box of green tea bags and a tin of loose leaf that you are wondering whether to keep in the pantry or the fridge. The answers are different for each, and getting the brewed tea wrong has real food safety consequences. Does tea need to be refrigerated? The short answer: Dry tea, both bags and loose leaf, does not need refrigeration. In fact, the fridge can hurt dry tea by introducing moisture. Brewed tea must…

All stories in El Jalapeño are satire and not real news. MEXICO CITY — U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents stationed outside Estadio Azteca this week acknowledged that they are operating entirely outside U.S. legal jurisdiction, adding that they don’t really see why that should be a problem. “We go where the work is,” said Agent Tom Pruitt, who flew to Mexico City on Tuesday on what ICE described in a press release as “an operational deployment” and Mexican authorities described as “absolutely not authorized and please leave.” “You know, Bob this is exactly how Fox News makes San Diego…

The Diamondbacks announced that right-hander Yilber Diaz has been designated for assignment.  This is the corresponding move to create space on the 26-man and 40-man rosters for Jose Cabrera, whose previously reported contract selection is now official.  Arizona also called up left-hander Kohl Drake from Triple-A Reno and optioned southpaw Philip Abner to Triple-A. Diaz was just called up for his first MLB game of the season on Friday, and things couldn’t have gone much worse as the righty was torched for seven runs in two-thirds of an inning in the Diamondbacks’ 16-8 loss to the Twins.  After posting a…
