A huge fire is burning California’s prized wine country–the Napa Valley–to ash. So far, 10 deaths and 1500 homes destroyed and wineries burned to the ground as the fire races through Napa, Sonoma, and Mendicino Counties in California.

Y.A.Tittle, the record-setting, Hall of Fame quarterback for the New York Giants, has died at age 90. He was an impressive competitor who took the Giants to three title games in the 1960s.
Los Angeles, Houston, and Chicago all advanced in the MLB Playoffs. Cleveland and the Yankees are tied at two games each in their best-of-five series.
