LOS ANGELES (AP) — Clayton Kershaw pitched two-hit ball over five innings, Mookie Betts hit a two-run double that set a record of 105 RBIs for a leadoff hitter, and the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the San Francisco Giants 7-0 on Saturday night. Kershaw (13-4) struck out five and walked two. The three-time Cy Young Award winner has not gone beyond five innings in any of last seven starts. He returned Aug. 10 after missing six weeks with a left shoulder injury that he and the team have said little about.

Two new applications—one for monovalent and the other for bivalent vaccines—are pending with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for their commercial use against COVID-19, according to Director General Samuel Zacate. The FDA chief, however, did not elaborate. So far, only Pfizer's bivalent vaccine under the brand name Comirnaty Original/Omicron BA.4-5 was given the certificate of product registration, a license issued by the FDA for the commercial distribution and sale of a medical device. The FDA is hoping Pfizer can finally bring in commercial batches of bivalent vaccine Tozinameran Famtozinameran by the end of this month or in August, Zacate said.

Hanwha Ocean's Okpo shipyard in Geoje, South Gyeongsang [YONHAP] Hanwha Ocean, formerly known as Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering (DSME), failed to make a turnaround in the second quarter mainly due to one-off costs such as higher outsourcing costs and higher wages. Hanwha Ocean posted a 159.1 billion won ($120 million) operating loss in the second quarter of 2022, far more than the market expectation of 16.8 billion won loss compiled by market tracker FnGuide. It is the 11th consecutive quarterly operating loss for the Korean shipyard.

20th Century Studios As the hero said in Deadpool 2 , "Never underestimate a man with a mustache." As proof, Rob Delaney will reportedly reprise his role as the decidedly non-super-powered Peter in Deadpool 3 . The character, who auditions for Deadpool's X-Force team after seeing an ad in the blockbuster, and only brings to the table his mustache and "both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes," will appear in the anticipated third film, Deadline is reporting. Delaney joins Hugh Jackman in his first foray into the Marvel Cinematic Universe in the November 2024 release, along with returning 'Pool players Karan Soni (Dopinder), Leslie Uggams (Blind Al), Morena Baccarin (Vanessa) and Stefan Kapičić (Colossus), and newcomers Emma Corrin from The Crown and Succession Emmy winner Matthew Macfadyen .
