Now on to sports. 00:04:44.699 --> 00:04:48.120 Rafi Devers is making unfortunate history for 00:04:48.120 --> 00:04:50.899 the Boston Red Sox. starting the season with 00:04:50.899 --> 00:04:55.279 a grim 0 -for -19 stint at the plate. As the 00:04:55.279 --> 00:04:57.959 team faced the Baltimore Orioles, Devers struck 00:04:57.959 --> 00:05:00.819 out three more times, surpassing the record for 00:05:00.819 --> 00:05:03.300 most strikeouts in the first five games of a 00:05:03.300 --> 00:05:07.100 season. Despite previously being a strong hitter, 00:05:07.199 --> 00:05:09.759 Devers has struggled since being moved to designated 00:05:09.759 --> 00:05:13.699 hitter after the signing of Alex Bregman. Team 00:05:13.699 --> 00:05:17.139 manager Alex Cora remains optimistic. emphasizing 00:05:17.139 --> 00:05:19.720 that Devers will eventually find his rhythm, 00:05:19.939 --> 00:05:27.199 stating, it's just a matter of when.

This victory keeps the Padres' 00:05:53.740 --> 00:05:57.540 record perfect at 6 -0, and the excitement in 00:05:57.540 --> 00:06:01.100 San Diego is palpable as the team continues its 00:06:01.100 --> 00:06:05.180 strong start.

Tomorrow 00:06:41.560 --> 00:06:44.360 night, the Kings face the Utah Hockey Club at 00:06:44.360 --> 00:06:47.910 the Delta Center.

With approximately $20 billion in balances, 00:08:36.019 --> 00:08:38.539 the Apple credit card represents a significant 00:08:38.539 --> 00:08:42.779 opportunity for whoever wins the bid.
