Baton Rouge Louisiana News
Baton Rouge is a vibrant city! Here is some of the latest news:
LOS ANGELES -- Dodger Stadium’s 40-year wait to host the All-Star Game is going to last even longer.
The game scheduled for July 14 was canceled Friday because of the coronavirus pandemic, and Dodger Stadium was awarded the 2022 Midsummer Classic. The 2021 game is set for Atlanta’s Truist Park, home to the Braves since 2017.
Because of the pandemic, opening day had already been delayed from March 26 to July 23 or 24.
“Once it became clear we were unable to hold this year’s All-Star festivities, we wanted to award the Dodgers with the next available All-Star Game, which is 2022,” baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred said in a statement.
This will be the first time since 1945 that no game will be held. Travel restrictions because of World War II kept the game scheduled for Boston’s Fenway Park and any player selections from taking place that year. It was pushed back to the next season.
The Dodgers hosted the only the Mid-Summer Classic in Dodger Stadium history in 1980, won 4-2 by the National League.
The stadium —third-oldest in baseball behind Fenway and Chicago’s Wrigley Field — is the only park in the majors not to have increased its 56,000-seat capacity since it opened in 1962.
That’s not to say it hasn’t changed, however.
Since 2013, the stadium that overlooks downtown Los Angeles has undergone a series of structural and behind-the-scenes improvements, including two entrance plazas on the field level, tiered seating and bar areas overlooking both bullpens. The ballpark has also gotten new HD video screens and sound systems, wider concourses and renovated restrooms, kids play areas, displays to honor the franchise’s storied history, new home and visiting clubhouses and batting cages.
And that doesn’t include the $100 million in renovations that helped the Dodgers land the 2020 game. Those feature two acres of food and entertainment offerings in a new center field plaza and spruced-up outfield pavilions. Also added were elevators, escalators and bridges to improve circulation around the ballpark without changing its picturesque look and feel. The speaker tower sound system in center field is being replaced. New so-called “home run seats” are being added in front of existing outfield seats.
The coronavirus delayed the start of the season and also slowed work at the stadium. In mid-April, retired Hall of Fame broadcaster Vin Scully narrated a brief video of the project.
“When we get back to baseball, Dodger fans will be greeted with the most significant upgrade to the fan experience in the history of our storied venue,” he said.
“When exactly will that return to Dodger Stadium take place? Well, as that noted baseball philosopher Yogi Berra once said, ‘I wish I had an answer to that because I’m tired of answering that question,? Scully said, chuckling.
Scully, now 92, announced the 1959 All-Star game hosted by the Dodgers at Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum (the second such game played that year). He joined Mel Allen on the call for NBC on Aug. 3.
It was the first Mid-Summer Classic to be played on the West Coast, and also one of only two games to be played outside the month of July. The other was in 1981, when it was held on Aug. 9 because of the players’ strike.
The Dodgers also hosted the game at Ebbets Field in 1949 before they moved to the West Coast from Brooklyn.
The Dodgers have produced four different All-Star Game MVPs: Maury Wills in 1962; Steve Garvey in 1974 and ’78; Don Sutton in 1977; and Mike Piazza in 1996. From the 87-year-old Wills to the 51-year-old Piazza, all are still living and may have played a part in this year’s festivities.
Scully would surely have made an appearance, either in person or via video, where he has turned up several times since retiring in 2016. He and Brent Musburger worked the 1980 game in LA for CBS radio.
The Dodgers had been planning to host the 91st All-Star Game since being chosen in 2018. They sent teams of planners to Washington, D.C., in 2018 and Cleveland last year to study what did and didn’t work for those host cities.
Besides the Futures Game, Home Run Derby and All-Star Game over three days at the stadium, there would have been a Fan Fest and other events and commercial tie-ins around the game.
In February 2018, the Los Angeles City Council estimated an economic impact of $89.4 million from hosting the game. The Dodgers had committed to paying $100,000 for city services needed as part of the game.
Smoothie enthusiasts will have one less brand to choose from by the end of July.
According to CNN, Coca-Cola is closing its juice and smoothie brand Odwalla at the end of July.
The company made the call "given a rapidly shifting marketplace and despite every effort to support continued production," John Hackett, president of Coca-Cola's Minute Maid business unit, which includes the company's juice brands, said in a statement.
"This decision was not made lightly," he added.
Coca-Cola acquired Odwalla in 2001. It has been assessing Odwalla's business for the last several years, according to a company spokesperson, who added that the decision to discontinue the brand is not directly related to the coronavirus pandemic.
Health-conscious consumers are less interested in smoothies than they used to be, she explained.
SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico -- A 4.9-magnitude earthquake struck just southwest of Puerto Rico on Friday. There were no reported casualties.
The quake was felt across the U.S. territory and is the latest in a series of tremors that began in late December and have damaged or destroyed hundreds of homes.
1000: NO TSUNAMI THREAT FROM A NEARBY EARTHQUAKE
— NWS San Juan (@NWSSanJuan) July 3, 2020
AN EARTHQUAKE WITH A PRELIMINARY MAGNITUDE OF 5.1 OCCURRED IN THE VICINITY OF PUERTO RICO AT 955 AM AST ON FRIDAY JULY 3 2020.Ángel Vázquez, who oversees the emergency management agency in Ponce, said a house collapsed in the town of Lajas. The house was empty and slated for demolition, according to Kiara Hernández, spokeswoman for Puerto Rico’s Department of Public Security.
The U.S. Geological Survey said the latest quake struck five kilometers (three miles) southeast of La Parguera, at a depth of six kilometers (3.7 miles).
Víctor Huérfano, director of Puerto Rico’s Seismic Network, told The Associated Press that the tremor is an aftershock related to the 6-4-magnitude quake that struck in early January, killing at least one person and causing millions of dollars in damage.
Several offices in the capital of San Juan and elsewhere were evacuated out of caution.
Guánica Mayor Santos Seda said there were a couple of small landslides but that no one was in danger. He said crews will continue to inspect buildings that have been further weakened by ongoing seismic activity.
He said the latest earthquake caused panic once again in his town and beyond.
“It revives the fear of many people,” he said, adding that there are still three families in makeshift, temporary structures because they’re too scared to return home.
BATON ROUGE - Investigators with the East Baton Rouge Parish Sheriff's Office say after 31-year-old Gabriel N. Francis was caught shoplifting at the Cortana Walmart in Baton Rouge and got into a fight with the deputy who attempted to detain him, he grabbed the deputy's weapon and discharged it.
Investigators say from that point on, Francis managed to evade arrest with the help of two women.
As WBRZ previously reported, after fleeing the Walmart on June 15th, deputies say Francis jumped into the waiting car of 35-year-old Joycie Abraham who drove him away from the scene of the crime and helped him dodge police for a time.
As of Friday (July 3), new information regarding the case reveals that after being driven to Lafayette, Francis allegedly met up with 36-year-old Katressa Johnson, who deputies identify as the mother of at least one of his children, and she helped him escape to Indianapolis, Indiana.
In an official document from the East Baton Rouge Parish Sheriff's Office, investigators say one of Johnson's family members saw her with a man they didn't immediately recognize and then after noticing Francis' picture on a television newscast, realized Johnson was with a fugitive who was on the run.
Investigators say the family member immediately called their local authorities and it was shortly thereafter confirmed that the two fled out of state together.
Francis was captured in Indianapolis, Indiana on June 17 with the help of Louisiana State Police and the U.S Marshal Service.
Johnson was arrested and charged as an accessory after the fact to theft, attempted murder, battery of a police officer, disarming of a police officer, and felon in possession of a firearm.
At this time she remains in East Baton Rouge Parish Prison.
MIAMI, Floriday - As Florida reports over 169,000 cases of novel coronavirus and more than 16,000 deaths, one of the state's most recent COVID-19 fatalities includes an 11-year-old boy from Miami-Dade County.
Florida's Department of Health says the boy is the youngest person in the state to succumb to the disease.
According to CNN, his death marks the state's third loss of a child due to complications stemming from novel coronavirus.
The other two minors who passed away after contracting the illness included a 16-year-old girl in Lee County and a 17-year-old boy in Pasco County.
Recent health records indicate the 11-year-old's case was not travel-related, and that he suffered from underlying health conditions.
According to the Associated Press, shortly after news of the child's death, Miami's mayor issued a new overnight curfew and announced that certain businesses, which had just reopened in June, would have to once again close their doors to customers.
The curfew goes into effect Friday (July 3) night from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. and will be in place for an indefinite period of time.
Mayor Carlos Gimenez's new order requires the shuttering of casinos, movie theaters and other entertainment venues.
“This curfew is meant to stop people from venturing out and hanging out with friends in groups, which has shown to be spreading the virus rapidly,” Gimenez said in a statement.
