LONDON — A triple whammy of by-elections in the U.K. has given everyone in Westminster something to cheer — and someone to blame.Rishi Sunak’s Tories took a beating in two out of the three contests for House of Commons seats held Thursday, as Labour and the Liberal Democrats overturned huge majorities in the Yorkshire seat of Selby and Ainsty and in Somerset’s Somerton and Frome respectively.But an unexpected, if narrow, hold for the Conservatives in Uxbridge and South Ruislip — Boris Johnson’s old seat — complicates the narrative. And poses big questions for Labour’s own operation.Here’s how last night’s, er, three winners — Labour, Tories and Lib Dems — all tried to spin the by-elections as the dust settled Friday.Keir Starmer’s LabourThe thumping win in Selby has been put front and center by an opposition party eyeing a general election victory in 2024.It’s little wonder, since the new 25-year-old MP Keir Mather overturned a 20,000-plus majority in what was seen as a safe seat fo...Column: Pat Hughes, longtime Chicago Cubs radio voice, is ready for his day in the sun — receiving the Frick Award

Pat Hughes considers himself one lucky guy.“When I was in college, if anyone would’ve said you’re going to have a long career and be in the big leagues for five years, I would’ve said, ‘Great, sign me up,’” Hughes said. “Now 41 years, it’s almost ridiculous. It’s so sublime it’s incomprehensible. How did I get here?”The answer to that question seems obvious to anyone who has followed his career. Hughes worked hard at his craft, was dedicated to learning everything he could about the game and its players, became a respected and beloved voice of the Chicago Cubs and performed his job long enough and well enough to earn the Ford C. Frick Award for excellence in broadcasting. Saturday afternoon at Doubleday Field in Cooperstown, N.Y., a day before the National Baseball Hall of Fame inductions of Scott Rolen and Fred McGriff, Hughes will be honored by the Hall and receive his plaque, putting him in the company of Cub...Inconsistent Chicago Cubs suffer a sloppy 7-2 loss to the St. Louis Cardinals in the opener of a 4-game series

The Chicago Cubs’ season has been mired in mediocrity.Consistency and positive momentum continues to elude a team needing to make up ground in their effort to get to .500 and climb back into the division race. Closing out their series win against the Washington Nationals with two victories and 25 runs scored didn’t carry over into their series opener Thursday versus the St. Louis Cardinals.The Cubs couldn’t get much going offensively with left-hander Steven Matz on the mound. They finished with six hits in a 7-2 loss to a Cardinals team that has won six straight and quickly pulled within 1 1/2 games of the third-place Cubs (45-51).Marcus Stroman struggled to get in a groove, and the infield defense didn’t help him. Third baseman Patrick Wisdom’s two-out fielding error in the first extended the inning, which set up Willson Contreras to put the Cardinals ahead 1-0 on a double. Stroman was able to work around a Wisdom throwing error in the second, getting ...As Orioles exceed expectations, trade deadline gives front office the chance to do the same | ANALYSIS

If it were up to Kyle Gibson, the Orioles would be all-in on 2023.The 35-year-old starting pitcher reached the World Series last year with the Philadelphia Phillies and would love a repeat with Baltimore after signing a one-year, $10 million deal this offseason. But Gibson also understands the front office will approach the Aug. 1 trade deadline with more than the following three months in mind.“They’re working with a vision that’s not just this year, but it’s this year and five years, right?” Gibson said. “They have a lot different job. For me, it’s like, yeah, I would worry about this year and that’s it, and then when you hit the next year, worry about next year. But obviously, that’s not how a Major League Baseball team is able to operate.”Fueled by executive vice president and general manager Mike Elias’ “liftoff from here” comment in the wake of last year’s deadline — in which the Orioles ...Patriots training camp countdown No. 5: Who will make a Year 2 leap?

MONTREAL — The competition regulator in Britain has raised concerns about LKQ Corp.’s agreement to buy Canadian company Uni-Select Inc. and is reviewing a plan put forth by the companies to address its issues.The Competition and Markets Authority says its investigation found that the merger could reduce competition in the supply of car parts, as well as garage equipment, to independent garages and workshops in 145 local areas and the supply of car parts to national and multi-regional customers.It says it will now consider a proposal put forward by LKQ and Uni-Select, which the companies believe could address the regulator’s concerns, before deciding on the next step.U.S. company LKQ announced a deal in February to buy Quebec-based Uni-Select in a roughly $2.8-billion agreement.In connection with the acquisition, LKQ said at the time that it would undertake a process to sell GSF Car Parts U.K., Uni-Select’s U.K. based mechanical parts distribution business.

PAPHOS, Cyprus (AP) — A Cyprus court on Friday found a British man who killed his ailing wife in their home guilty of manslaughter, saying that the prosecution didn’t prove beyond reasonable doubt that the 76-year-old man committed premeditated murder. In a unanimous decision, the three-judge bench said that David Hunter’s decision to suffocate his 74-year-old wife Janice as she was sitting in a recliner in December 2021 was a spur-of-the-moment decision: he snapped as he could no longer stand seeing her weeping in pain. The court accepted witness testimony that Janice feared her blood ailment would develop into full-blown leukemia and had repeatedly pleaded with her husband to take her life because she didn’t want to share the fate of her sister who died of the disease. Hunter attempted to take his own life by consuming a large amount of pills after doing something “he never before thought possible – closing his hands over his wife’s mouth and nose,” the court heard, but medi...Amsterdam wants ships to moor less, votes to move terminal out of city in latest hit to tourism

AMSTERDAM (AP) — Amsterdam wants to move a cruise liner terminal out of the heart of the historic capital city as the latest step in its ongoing battle against pollution and hordes of tourists clogging its narrow, cobbled streets.The Dutch capital is one of the many picturesque European cities — from Rome to Venice to Paris — grappling with how to manage visitor numbers that are again soaring in the aftermath of shutdowns during the coronavirus pandemic.Aldermen at Amsterdam’s municipality voted Thursday in favor of a motion calling on the city to move the terminal away from its current location close to the central rail station.“A clear decision has been made by the council that the cruise (terminal) should leave the city,” Ilana Rooderkerk, leader of the centrist D66 party in Amsterdam, told The Associated Press in an email on Friday. “The municipal executive of Amsterdam is now going to work on how to implement it.
