Boston Red Sox fans are apparently taking their frustrations out on social media after the Rafael Devers trade.Shortly after the Sox completed a three-game sweep of their arch-rival New York Yankees, they sent Devers, who homered on Sunday over the Green Monster, to the San Francisco Giants.The writing had been on the wall for some time after the Sox signed third baseman Alex Bregman, and eventually, Devers refused to play first base. Devers has only been a designated hitter all season.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMHowever, despite the clear friction in the clubhouse, Devers was the face of the franchise and the last man standing from the 2018 World Series championship team, apparently leaving some Sox fans in dismay.In the wake of trading Devers, Newton Police said they were made aware of reports that "some members of the Red Sox have been victims of doxxing on social media due to a recent trade."Police told Fox News Digital in a statement that they were "notified by representatives from the Boston Red Sox Organization," but they are "not investigating any online threats."The Red Sox did not immediately respond to a request for comment from Fox News Digital.TMZ Sports first reported the doxxing.RED SOX GREAT DAVID ORTIZ TALKS 'MATURITY' IN RELATION TO RAFAEL DEVERS TRADEIn speaking with reporters on Monday about the trade, Breslow actually said "there's a real chance" that at the end of the season, they will have "won more games" without Devers than with him.The Giants took on all $250 million remaining on Devers' contract. With lots of cash now available, and a team that is right in the postseason race, Breslow said the front office will continue to look for ways to improve the team, with a middle-of-the-lineup hitter a new need."For some reason, this team (is) an example where the whole was not greater than the sum of the parts," he said. "And being great teammates and sacrificing and stepping up for each other and embodying this shared vision, we believe that those are principles that we need to be faithful to."And so, at the end of the season, I think we could look back and say weve won more games than we otherwise would have, because of the way that this roster is now able to come together."The Associated Press contributed to this report.Follow Fox News Digitalssports coverage on X,and subscribe tothe Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

The advent of name, image, and likeness (NIL) has significantly altered the college sports landscape. High-profile college athletes will often consider projected NIL figures before they commit to or transfer to another school.South Carolina football star LaNorris Sellers received tempting offers designed to entice him to enter the transfer portal. "He was offered all kinds of crazy numbers," Sellers' father, Norris, told The Athletic.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMThe South Carolina quarterback ultimately turned down the offers in favor of remaining with the Gamecocks, according to his father. At least one of the lucrative proposals "he heard was for $8 million for two years," Sellers' father said.FEDERAL JUDGE APPROVES $2.8B SETTLEMENT ALLOWING SCHOOLS TO DIRECTLY PAY COLLEGE ATHLETESHe also suggested that his son never intended to play college football to simply "make money" and that another university "offering more" wasn't enough to motivate the quarterback to transfer."I told him he could say, Im gonna stay or Im gonna go. [But] my two cents: It was to get into college on a scholarship, play ball, get our degree, and go on about our business," Norris Sellers said. "This NIL deal came later. We didnt come here to make money. We came here to get our education, play ball, and with schools calling, were not gonna jump ship because theyre offering more than what were getting. If it aint broke, dont fix it."Sellers, who will be classified as a redshirt sophomore this fall, finished the 2024 season with 2,534 passing yards and 18 touchdowns. He will be eligible for the NFL draft after the 2025 college season.Sellers and South Carolina are slated to open the regular season on Aug. 31 against Virginia Tech in Atlanta.College athletes started receiving compensation for their names, images, and likenesses in 2021. At the time, many athletic boosters formed groups called collectives. The collective effectively tapped NIL funds as de facto salaries for their respective teams. Prominent players have received millions of dollars from collectives.However, a federal judge's recent decision on a $2.8 billion settlement paved the way for college and university athletic departments to cut checks directly to athletes. Judge Claudia Wilken approved the multi-billion The House v. NCAA settlement. Wilken's ruling came just weeks before July 1, the date many schools planned to begin issuing payments directly to athletes.Follow Fox News Digitals sports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

Senate Republicans are steadily moving along in their quest to advance President Donald Trumps "big, beautiful bill," but some remain dissatisfied with one of the most crucial portions of the package.The Senate Finance Committee unveiled its portion of the budget reconciliation package Monday night that deals directly with making the presidents first-term tax cuts permanent and the more controversial proposed changes to Medicaid, niche tax issues and Biden-era green energy subsidies.Senate Republicans met behind closed doors to get a crash course on the bill, and some left distraught over provisions they hoped they would see on the cutting room floor. Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., can only afford to lose three votes in the upper chamber.SENATE PANEL NAVIGATES DELICATE COMPROMISES ON MEDICAID, TAXES IN LATEST CHUNK OF TRUMP'S MEGABILLAnd due to the nature of budget reconciliation, which allows lawmakers to skirt the filibuster, he cant count on Democrats, who would demand serious changes to the broader legislation, to help get the package across the line.The changes to the Medicaid provider tax rate, which were a stark departure from the House GOPs version of the bill, particularly ruffled feathers among Republicans who have warned not to make revisions to the healthcare program that could shut down rural hospitals and boot working Americans from their benefits."I want changes," Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, said. "I'm still not satisfied with where we are on Medicaid."'IT'S WRONG': HAWLEY WARNS SENATE GOP NOT TO BOOT AMERICANS FROM MEDICAID IN TRUMP MEGABILLThe Senate Finance Committee went further than the Houses freeze of the provider tax rate, or the amount that state Medicaid programs pay to healthcare providers on behalf of Medicaid beneficiaries, for non-Affordable Care Act expansion states, and included a provision that lowers the rate in expansion states annually until it hits 3.5 percent.To date, 41 states and Washington, D.C., have opted into the Medicaid expansion program. The idea behind the changes to the provider rate taxes was to help pay for Trumps mammoth bill in part and discourage the remaining states from opting into Medicaid expansion.Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., argued, for a state like his dotted with rural hospitals, that the bill "is not a good development" for their survival.BLUE STATE REPUBLICANS THREATEN REVOLT AGAINST TRUMP'S 'BIG, BEAUTIFUL BILL' IF SENATE CHANGES KEY TAX RULE"I mean, it's really not," he said. "And in order to pay for increased subsidies for the Green New Deal? I mean, it just baffles me."The Senates version of the tax package does add more flexibility to green energy tax credits than the Houses, an issue pushed for by a handful of Senate Republicans who wanted to see the truncated phase-out of the credits in the House bill slowed down.Senate Republicans met with Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Administrator Dr. Mehmet Oz Tuesday afternoon to discuss the Medicaid tweaks in the bill. Oz said the White House did "not believe" changing the provider tax would influence the ability of hospitals to stay viable."In fact, the provider tax and the state-directed payments are often used to pay institutions that have the best connections to the government of the state, not necessarily the hospitals that need the help the most," he said. "It is important that we clean up this system."Sen. John Hoeven, R-N.D., sought to extinguish anger among his colleagues, noting that Senate Finance Committee Chair Mike Crapo, R-Idaho, and Senate leaders were still working on what the final product would look like."Everybody's got an opinion, and I think it's gonna be that way right up until we vote," he said.Fiscal hawks were not pleased with the bill, either.Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., has stumped for a return to pre-COVID-19 pandemic era spending, a gouge to federal spending that would be trillions of dollars more than the rough goal of $2 trillion in spending cuts that some Senate Republicans are eying.He believed there was "no way" that the current parts of the broader reconciliation package could be fixed and stitched together by the Senate GOPs self-imposed July 4 deadline."The problem is it just simply doesnt meet the moment," he said.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APPBut Crapo cautioned he and lawmakers were still working out the kinks and that a resolution to his colleagues issues could still be found."All I can say is that we will work it out," Crapo said. "We have to work that out, not only among our colleagues in the Senate, but with the House and with the White House."

Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens, Florida, will have a massive police presence throughout the remainder of the Club World Cup this month, as the city looks to avoid a repeat of the near-deadly incident that resulted in 26 arrests last year.The 2024 Copa America final saw a swarm of ticketless fans rush the gates for a match between Argentina and Colombia, leaving fans terrified and bloodied as security struggled to contain the crush, as they attempted to break in.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMVideos showed some fans trying to climb through air vents to gain entry. Police had to lift distressed children over barriers to avoid them being crushed, while elsewhere officers tackled to the ground the ticketless fans they could catch in a forlorn attempt to keep the hoards at bay.But things are different this summer."Weve put extensive measures in place to protect fans, players and staff," Miami-Dade Sheriff Rosie Cordero-Stutz said before the tournament. "The Miami-Dade Sheriffs Office is leading all security efforts for this global event."Changes made over the past year mean fans for this tournament must pass through three separate checkpoints that enclose the entire campus before getting close to the stadium. Steel fencing is set up around the perimeter.First up is a ticket check at temporary gates, taking up large parts of the parking lot where tailgate parties might usually take place. Then comes another airport-style screening under tents where bags are checked by X-ray machines. Even flags need to be approved.MEXICO PRESIDENT CALLS FOR US IMMIGRATION FORCES TO SPARE FANS AT LA SOCCER GAMEFans were able to get much closer to the stadium before checkpoints at the Copa America."When I was at the final, the security guards just opened the gate and started letting people through," Edison Negron, a Boca Juniors fan from Puerto Rico, told The Associated Press when describing the scenes as fans crushed against the barriers last year.Miami-Dade County said at the time that a full review would be conducted and that the scenes "cannot happen again.""There will be a significant law enforcement and security footprint in and around the stadium to ensure public safety for all the events," Det. Argemis Colome told the AP, while adding that social media was being monitored prior to matches.Preparations have included special training for a rapid-deployment force as part of a multi-agency response to potential crowd trouble."If things go south, we get ready for civil unrest and unruly fans," the sheriffs office said in a social media post.A large police presence has been evident at both games played at Hard Rock so far Saturdays tournament opener when a crowd of more than 60,000 watched Inter Miami vs. Al Ahly and Mondays match between Boca Juniors and Benfica in front of nearly 56,000.Patrol cars have been stationed along the interstate outside of the stadium and, within the grounds, officers equipped with face shields and protective clothing are on patrol.FIFA said it had worked closely with stadium officials, state and federal agencies "to ensure a robust security presence."The Associated Press contributed to this report.Follow Fox News Digitals sports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

I'm still praying for a miracle with his current lungs, but they are currently starting the evaluation process for a lung transplant."I know transplants are such a blessing and I'm overwhelmed at the thought of him receiving a gift like that.

California Gov. Gavin Newsom already had a podcast. Now he has a Substack, too.Newsom launched his own site Tuesday on the popular spot for independent journalists, calling it a way to "break through "the noise.""We have to flood the zone and continue to cut through the right-wing disinformation machine," he wrote in the post that was accompanied by a video of the governor speaking."There's so much mis and disinformation out there, there's so much noise, I don't need to tell you that," Newsom said. "The question is, how do we break through all of that noise and engage in real conversations? And that's why I'm launching on Substack. I hope you'll follow me so we can continue to engage in a two-way conversation at this critical moment in our history."GOV GAVIN NEWSOM: TRUMP IS TRYING TO DESTROY OUR DEMOCRACY. DO NOT LET HIMNewsom kicked off his new project by sharing his Fox News Digital op-ed on Tuesday titled, "Trump is trying to destroy our democracy. Do not let him." He also posted an interview with Democratic strategist and TikToker Aaron Parnas.He told Parnas that joining new media platforms like Substack was "foundational and fundamental" to Democratic strategy and outreach going forward and that his party must get more "aggressive" with their messaging.Newsom launched his own podcast in March, "This is Gavin Newsom," where he's conversed with liberal allies but also pro-Trump figures like Charlie Kirk and Newt Gingrich.The likely 2028 Democratic presidential candidate already has a high profile, but he's held the spotlight even more in recent weeks as California became the epicenter of the Trump administration's illegal immigration crackdown.Newsom has spoken out harshly against President Donald Trump's deployment of the National Guard and Marines to Los Angeles to quell unrest generated by anti-ICE protests."These are men and women trained in foreign combat, not domestic law enforcement. We honor their service and their bravery. Butwe do not want our streets militarized by our own Armed Forces," Newsom wrote for Fox News Digital."With this act, President Trump has betrayed our soldiers, the American people, and our core traditions; soldiers are being ordered to patrol the very same American communities they swore to protect in wars overseas. The deployment of federal soldiers in L.A. doesnt protect our communities it traumatizes them," he wrote.Newsom and Attorney General Rob Bonta filed a lawsuit accusing Trump of overstepping his bounds by illegally deploying the National Guard to quell the unrest. Last week, a federal judge sided with California in his ruling and directed Trump to return control of National Guard troops to Newsom's command.EXCLUSIVE: NEW GAVIN NEWSOM FILES REVEAL CALIFORNIA GOVERNOR'S EXTREME AGENDA"Defendants are temporarily ENJOINED from deploying members of the California National Guard in Los Angeles," U.S. District Judge Charles R. Breyer wrote in his ruling. "Defendants are DIRECTED to return control of the California National Guard to Governor Newsom."White House spokesperson Anna Kelly blasted the ruling as an "abuse of power" that "puts our brave federal officials in danger" and said the Trump administration would appeal the decision.A federal appeals court stayed the ruling and will hear arguments Tuesday to review whether Trump can keep using Californias National Guard to protect immigration enforcement officials and quell protests.CLICK HERE TO GET THE FOX NEWS APP

College baseball nearly saw a miracle at Messiah University this year.The Messiah Falcons made a run all the way to the Division III World Series championship game on June 5 in one of the most historic seasons in program history.But for coach Phillip Shallenberger and his team, the goal wasn't even to get there. Their goal was simply to be good Christians.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM"It stopped becoming about, like, OK, can we win a national championship, and it started becoming, like, How can we point people closer to Christ?" Messiah pitcher Daniel Knight told Fox News Digital.About halfway through this season, after a 1-6 start, the team underwent a priority shift. No longer did they show up to the clubhouse every day with a main goal to win. Now, they were simply serving Christ."We used to sit in the video room, and we would show the other pitcher and show what the other team does and really focus on what they were doing," Shallenberger said. "And then at about that point we started shifting toward just diving into the Word a little bit more. Like, How does God want us to lead?"It was a bit more on the devotionals and bit less on the scouts. And that was actually about the time we started to play a lot better."Shallenberger even made his players carry 250-pound crosses as a team workout."We do that right in the middle of our conference season in between games," Shallenberger said.But one time, Knight did the cross-carrying workout just before a game on April 17 against Eastern. He threw eight and a third shutout innings with nine strikeouts in that game.It marked a shocking turnaround for Knight, who got off to a poor start to the season with a 9.26 ERA."It was kind of a wake-up call for me is that you know what the most important thing we can do is glorify God and always having that at our forefront if that means sacrificing being at our best physically and the more reason to rely on the Lord and his strength those are the choices that started to be made after that point," Knight said.ARCHAEOLOGISTS UNCOVER EARLIEST KNOWN EVIDENCE OF CHRISTIANITY NORTH OF THE ALPS: 'UNUSUAL FOR THIS TIME'Knight said the change came on a morning when he was reading scripture and heard God tell him, Its not about you.'"When I was focused on myself, I was becoming depressed. And then when I had that shift of God telling me, Its not about you,' I saw a change in when I was trying to serve other people, that I was receiving more joy," Knight said.Knight and the Falcons busted out of their 1-6 start with a 16-4 win against Dickinson College on March 4. From there, they became one of the hottest teams in Divison III, winning 16 of their next 19.Along the way, Shallenberger and his players started adding scripture to their play-call wristbands, where they used to place pitches and signs."It would say, Whatever, bunt defense, or whatever we wanted. But [Shallenberger] also added some sayings, like one was like, Surrender your hands' or Jesus over everything," said infielder Drew Hurst."So I know for me, there would be multiple times where either I would make an error or strike out to end an inning and then run on the field and maybe be a little bit p---ed off at myself. But he always would put those on as a little reminder of why [we] play this game, and it's not about our performance or what we do win-wise, but how we, with body language on the field, show love to Jesus and the other team and whoever else is watching us."The players also studied characters in the Bible with Paul the Apostle becoming a team favorite.They finished the regular season 27-13 and then stormed through the Commonwealth Tournament, NCAA Regionals, Super Regionals and then the first two rounds of the World Series.They fell short of taking home the trophy, losing to University of Wisconsin-Whitewater in two games.But Hurst, Knight and many of Shallenberger's other devoted players will be back next year for a potential full season of putting faith over wins.Follow Fox News Digitalssports coverage on X, and subscribe tothe Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

The Indiana Pacers may be without one of their stars heading into a must-win Game 6 at home in the NBA Finals on Thursday night.Tyrese Haliburton, who has been pivotal in the Pacers playoffs success, is believed to have suffered a right calf strain, and ESPN reported an MRI is needed to determine its severity.In turn, Haliburtons status for Game 6 remains a large question looming over Indiana.CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMThe injury occurred in Game 5s loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder on Monday night, where Haliburton had just four points in 34 minutes on the floor. All four of those points came from the free throw line, as he missed all six of his shots.Haliburton also finished with seven rebounds, six assists and a -13 plus-minus mark for the game.THUNDER BEAT PACERS IN GAME 5 OF NBA FINALS TO COME WITHIN ONE WIN OF FIRST CHAMPIONSHIPThe injury was believed to have occurred while driving to the basket in the first quarter, which could explain Haliburtons oddly silent night on the offensive end. He went back to the locker room after the play, but returned to the bench shortly after.Haliburton was wearing a wrap around his calf, but he took it off mid-game.It was initially diagnosed as calf tightness, but the Pacers believe it to be more than that. However, Haliburton told reporters that he intends to play the rest of the series."I was not great tonight, but if I can walk then I wanna play," he said."Its the NBA Finals. Its the Finals, man," Haliburton added. "Ive worked my whole life to be here. And I want to be out there to compete, help my teammates any way I can."It goes without saying how vital Haliburtons presence in the Pacers starting five is, especially when it comes to crunch time in the fourth quarter. Haliburton has had enough game-winning buckets to last an entire playoff career, let alone just one stretch, which includes Game 1s heroic mid-range jumper to win it on the road.The Pacers dont have any breathing room, needing to win the next two games to secure the NBA title. Meanwhile, the Thunder have momentum even heading on the road after the 120-109 victory on Monday night.Through 21 playoff games, Haliburton has averaged 17.9 points, 9.1 assists and 5.8 rebounds for Indiana, while draining 46.3% of his shots from the floor.If Haliburton is unable to play, the Pacers do have some good depth, with T.J. McConnell most likely taking over duties at point guard.Follow Fox News Digitalssports coverage on X, and subscribe tothe Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.
