MIAMI (AP) — Luis Arraez had three hits to raise his major league-leading batting average to .399, and the Miami Marlins beat the Kansas City Royals 9-6 on Monday night.Arraez drove in two runs for the Marlins, who erased an early four-run deficit and won their fourth straight game. Bryan De La Cruz hit his eighth homer, while Jon Berti, Nick Fortes and Joey Wendle had two hits apiece.After going hitless in four at-bats Friday against Oakland, Arraez is 10 for 13 over the last three games.“It’s huge,” he said of his current average. “I have worked hard for this. But this is just starting. I am not complacent. I want to accomplish more.”No big league player has batted .400 for a season since Ted Williams hit .406 in 1941.Braxton Garrett (2-2) overcame a difficult start and completed five innings of four-run ball. The left-hander gave up six hits and struck out six.Arraez’s RBI single capped a four-run fourth and put Miami ahead 6-4. Berti hit a two-run triple and Jonathan Davis follo...Analysis: For Heat, the team’s famed ‘culture’ all starts with Pat Riley

MIAMI (AP) — Maybe the best way to describe Heat Culture would be to consider two ways that Pat Riley has used to define what basically is the backbone of Miami’s franchise.Answer 1: “It’s a shared philosophy with the goal of being great.”Answer 2: “It’s our shared goals, shared vision, shared thoughts.”The first answer was from 2000. The second answer came in 2020. The thinking barely deviated.Times change. Rosters change. But Riley and the culture — a buzzword for the Heat, a punchline for some who disparage what the Heat have done — stay pretty much the same. Out of the last 52 NBA Finals, Riley has been part of 19 of them as either a player, coach or executive. That means, give or take, Riley finds his way to the finals about every three years.Erik Spoelstra is the coach and makes the decisions, but it’s Riley — the team president seeking his 10th championship — who is still at the helm of the Heat ship. The Heat are tied with the Denver Nuggets at a game apiece in these NBA Fin...Florida dog back home after located through microchip at animal shelter in Arkansans

I almost cried, it was really sad but I was sad and happy at the same time,” said dog owner Louis Gonazalez.Gonzalez’s husky named Storm escaped while she was outside. She was nowhere to be found for days.“I called off work and I was a whole day looking for her on the streets, on Facebook to see if anybody had posted her,” said Gonzalez.Days turned into weeks and it turned out she was at an animal shelter in Arkansas almost 20 hours away from her Florida home.The animal shelter scanned the dog’s microchip and it came back registered to Gonzalez.“It was like if you haven’t seen a family member in years,” he said Gonzalez.“1,230 miles is an amazing trip in a week and a half to 2 weeks and we are just thankful and blessed that he was reunited with the animal,” said Lieutenant Leeann Zane...SEC brings charges against cryptocurrency trading platform Coinbase

By MICHELLE CHAPMAN (AP Business Writer)NEW YORK (AP) — The Securities and Exchange Commission sued cryptocurrency platform Coinbase on Tuesday, charging the company with operating an unregistered securities platform and brokerage service. The lawsuit comes a day after the SEC filed charges against Binance, the world’s largest crypto exchange, and its founder Changpeng Zhao are accused of misusing investor funds, operating as an unregistered exchange and violating a slew of U.S. securities laws.Coinbase shares plunged nearly 20% in the early morning trading on the news.

LONDON (AP) — Prince Harry stepped into courtroom witness box Tuesday to hold Britain’s tabloid press accountable for its “destructive” role throughout his life. But he soon found himself being held to account by a newspaper’s lawyer for how he could blame his anguish on articles he couldn’t remember reading.The Duke of Sussex became the first senior member of the royal family to testify in over a century as he held a Bible in his right hand and, in a soft voice, swore to tell the “whole truth and nothing but the truth” in the High Court in London.Harry accuses the publisher of the Daily Mirror of using unlawful techniques on an “industrial scale” to score front-page scoops on his life. Sitting in the witness box, dressed in a dark suit and tie, Harry told Mirror Group Newspapers attorney Andrew Green that he had “experienced hostility from the press since I was born.” The prince accused the tabloids of playing “a destructive role in my growing-up.”Harry was ...Stock market today: Wall Street opens lower; Coinbase tanks on SEC charges
