News about Justin Turner

Tasmania - once considered the end of the earth and an isolated island popular among retirees. But those days are far gone, with the nation's island state now considered Australia's epicentre of culture, food and wine, the home of one of the best museums in Southern Hemisphere and the cleanest air in the world. My parents never took me to Tassie. My dad was obsessed with the Formula One and my mum, sister and I were forced to take the annual 12-hour road trip to Adelaide in his rickety old Alfa Romeo. 

Victor Lee Turner, 69, and Megan R. Turner, 63, have been charged with murder in the death of 5-year-old Justin Turner, who was shot and killed at a news conference on Wednesday. A 5-year-old boy found strangled in 1989 was killed by his father Victor and his stepmother Megan, according to investigators long. However, a sheriff said it took 34 years of scientific research to connect microscopic fibers found on the boy's shirt to a ligature that investigators discovered at the couple's house.

As the Boston Red Sox-New York Mets game was postponed by rain in the fourth inning, Fenway, Major League Baseball's oldest ballpark, was turned into a Slip 'N Slide on Friday night. The Boston faithful were seen wading through the flooded concourse, while Red Sox slugger Justin Turner was seen wading through a foot of standing water with a garbage bag covering each of his legs. Turner later joked on social media, 'I wish we had played through it.' Many fans seemed to embrace the deluge, which began with some showers in the early evening before thunderstorms rumbled through eastern Massachusetts. The game is set to be restarted at 2:10 p.m. on Saturday, with the Mets eviding a 4-3 lead in the bottom of the fourth.

The New York Yankees have kicked off a road trip in disgusting style, as their hopes of making the playoffs fade. With the Angels up to bat leading 6-3, a slim chance of a comeback was shattered by the eighth inning. Tommy Kahnle of the Yankees scored a runner from second on a ground rule double, effectively ending any chance of a win. When Kahnle hurled his glove at a cooling fan in the dugout, destroying it, he may have pitched his most accurate pitch of the night.

We've arrived halfway through the 2023 Major League Baseball season, and the old rules haven't been followed. The Cardinals and Padres are a mess, the Marlins and Orioles are raging into the playoffs, and anyone who made a pre-season forecast of the Mets or Yankees is rubbing their eyes in disbelief. Two and a half months remain for teams to sort themselves out for the pennant chase, and as the regular season hits pause and MLB heads to Seattle for the All-Star Break, Mail Sport grades all 30 teams on their 2023 campaign so far:

One family's sons had to throw away a game of baseball before the Boston Red Sox came to the rescue. On Sunday, the television broadcast caught the moment during the New York Yankees' double header against their opponents. The young man, Charlie Mulligan, threw the ball back into the field after being given a foul ball by a nearby fan standing in front of him.

In the tenth inning, Kiké Hernández scored a tiebreaking single, and the Boston Red Sox defeated the New York Yankees 3-2 on Sunday night, with the support of second baseman Gleyber Torres' late error. Justin Turner homered and Brayan Bello accumulated three hits in seven innings for the Red Sox, matching his career high. In the first series between the longtime rivals this season, last-place Boston (333-33) won two of three low-scoring games at Yankee Stadium. Jose Trevino's early two-run single with a lucky bounce off second base was one of only three hits for the Yankees, and all the offense they could muster was to be a hit.

After being plunked by a foul ball in Saturday night's match against the Boston Red Sox, New York Yankees radio broadcaster John Sterling got closer to the action than he's ever been. Justin Turner, the Red Sox third baseman, fouled back the 3-2 pitch from New York reliever Clay Holmes in the top of the ninth innings in what was supposed to be a 3-1 Yankee victory. The ball bounced back across the home plate seats and crashed straight into the WFAN broadcast booth, where Sterling was seated.

After playing for years in Japan, Masataka Yoshida has already made some mechanical improvements at the plate during his rookie season with the Boston Red Sox. They certainly paid the bill on Sunday. Boston roared to beat the Milwaukee Brewers 12-5 after Yoshida homered twice during Boston's nine-run outburst in the eighth inning. Since Hall of Fame slugger David Ortiz's debut in August 2008, he became the first Red Sox player to go deep in a single inning.

Justin Turner, a Boston Red Sox infielder, was admitted to the hospital after being rushed in the chest with a pitch after Monday's game against the Detroit Tigers. After being struck by right-hander Matt Manning, the 38-year-old was slumped to the ground before medical staff arrived on the scene. As Turner stepped off the field, he was bleeding and had a towel on his face.

Hernandez, a player with the Los Angeles Dodgers at the time, pooped his pants while out on the field at a time when he was en route to their World Series victory. The 31-year-old said he was on medications for a tooth infection that caused diarrhea, but he didn't know he had pooped himself before returning to the locker room. When new Boston third baseman Justin Turner, who also played with him in LA, asked what the most embarrassing thing that happened to him during a game, Hernandez let the tale slip during spring training.

According to various outlets, Boston Red Sox veteran infielder and designated hitter Justin Turner agreed to a two-year contract on Sunday. The transaction, which is reportedly worth $22 million, has not been announced by the club. Turner had a $16 million club option for the 2023 season, but the Los Angeles Dodgers turned it down and paid him a $2 million buyout.

The Los Angeles Dodgers have still 23 games remaining in the regular season, and they have already clinched their 10th consecutive National League playoff spot. With a 11-2 victory over the San Diego Padres on Sunday, the Dodgers (96-43) claimed their new position as the host. They are just the third team in the division to make more than 100 consecutive appearances, joining the Atlanta Braves (14 from 1991-2005) and the New York Yankees (13 from 1995-2007). 'It's a big achievement,' Los Angeles manager Dave Roberts said after Sunday's game. 'For me, it's just making sure guys know that entering the postseason isn't a right of passage, and that a lot of work remains to be done.'

After his thrilling ride down the Milwaukee Brewers plunge that culminated in an unexpected crash landing at the bottom, an unlucky Dodgers sports reporter suffered with two arm fractures and six broken ribs. When covering the Dodgers' ride to the Brewers and their America Family Ballpark, which has a slide attached to the stadium, Spectrum SportsNet's David Vassegh left his on-air colleagues in hysterics on Wednesday. Although Vassegh had been 'chatting about going on the attraction for three days, he was greeted by his long-awaited ride, but instead he slammed into the wall at the bottom and writhed around in agony.

After it was revealed Monday that Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis had battled an autoimmune disorder three years ago that threatened his health on multiple fronts, they were seen at Ping Pong 4 Purpose, a charity function at Dodger Stadium in Los Angeles. Kutcher, 44, was dressed in a spruce blue short-sleeved button-up top with denim blue jeans and blue shoes. When he and his wife, 38, posed with Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw, 34, and his wife Ellen, he topped it off with a Chicago Bears cap. Kunis squeaked at the function by wearing a white T-shirt with blue jeans and white Converse shoes, with her brown locks parted and slicked back.
