    The art of drag has become a target. With Pride Month nigh, performers are organizing to fight back

    Qommittee consists of about 10 drag performers nationwide who have experienced, directly or indirectly, threats, harassment or violence related to their art form. One had a venue firebombed in Ohio; one performed at Club Q in Colorado Springs and helped victims the night of the shooting there that killed five people; and one worked at Club Q and at Pulse Nightclub in Orlando, where a gunman killed 49 people in 2016. Qommittee says it hopes, among other things, to connect drag performers and communities lacking in local support to resources including legal aid and therapy.

    Taylor Ward's 2-run double in the 8th inning propels Angels to 4-3 victory over Yankees

    Taylor Ward's two-run double into the left-center gap scored the go-ahead run in the eighth inning, Kevin Pillar had a two-run homer among his three hits and the Los Angeles Angels rallied for a 4-3 victory over the New York Yankees on Tuesday night to snap a four-game losing streak. Pinch-hitter Willie Calhoun led off the Angels' eighth with a base hit before being lifted for pinch-runner Mickey Moniak with two outs. Yankees first baseman Anthony Rizzo kept the inning alive when he mishandled Luis Rengifo's ground ball, setting the stage for Ward.
