The Rays are the fourth team in World Series history with an extra-inning comeback to stave off elimination. The other three all went on to win the series (1912 Red Sox, 1986 Mets, 2011 Cardinals).

On the eve of the start of in-person early voting, Democrats led Republicans by 51,000 ballots. Despite a 1.5 million voter advantage, it took Republicans eight days to even the playing field. When people ask me how the GOP is performing, that’s my answer.

President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva came from behind to win Brazil’s runoff election, halting a right-wing wave sweeping Latin America and defying predictions that the 80-year-old political veteran had finally reached the end of his extraordinary career. bloom.bg/4BsvV24 📷: Maira Erlich/Bloomberg

There was a moment in history when America built its public works like they were meant to stand the test of time These four from the American West still feel like proof that a country can be ambitious and hold aesthetics in the highest regard
