Packers …<\/p>\n
GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) \u2014 The Green Bay Packers say former kicker Ryan Longwell and tackle Mark Tauscher will be inducted into the team’s Hall of Fame. Longwell was the Packers’ all-time scoring leader with 1,054 career points until he was surpassed by Mason Crosby in 2015. Tauscher played in 134 games during an 11-year career.<\/span><\/p>\nUNDATED (AP) \u2014 Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers says on Instagram that he has been “medically cleared to return” to action after missing seven games with a broken right collarbone. Rodgers was hurt during a loss to Minnesota<\/span> on Oct. 15 and had surgery five days later. He could suit up for Sunday’s big game against Carolina as the 7-6 Packers try to grab a playoff berth.<\/p>\nThe Packers went 3-4 in Brett Hundley’s seven starts, including back-to-back overtime wins over Tampa Bay and Cleveland.<\/p>\n

MLB-PADRES-YANKEES TRADE<\/p>\n
UNDATED (AP) \u2014 The New York Yankees have given themselves payroll flexibility by sending third baseman Chase Headley, pitcher Bryan Mitchell and cash to the San Diego Padres for outfielder Jabari Blash.<\/p>\n
The deal comes a day after the Yankees finalized the acquisition of NL MVP Giancarlo Stanton from Miami. Yankees owner Hal Steinbrenner is intent on getting under the $197 million tax threshold next year, and New York still may attempt to re-sign left-hander CC Sabathia or add another starting pitcher.<\/p>\n
Also in the majors:<\/p>\n
\u2014 Reliever Brandon Morrow has agreed to a two-year contract with the Cubs. Morrow was one of the National League’s top setup men last season, going 6-0 with a 2.06 ERA and two saves in 45 appearances for the pennant-winning Dodgers. He could step into the closer role for Chicago if Wade Davis leaves via free agency.<\/p>\n
\u2014 Longtime major league umpire Dale Scott has retired at age 58, telling The Associated Press it was a pretty easy decision. The veteran crew chief missed nearly the entire 2017 season after a foul ball him hard in the mask during an April 14 game in Toronto, causing Scott’s second concussion in nine months and fourth in five years. Scott worked 3,897 regular-season games and was a crew chief for 16 seasons, half his career.<\/p>\n

In world and national news…<\/p>\n
\n
WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 President Donald Trump is defending his decision to initially back Sen. Luther Strange against Roy Moore, saying in a predawn tweet that “Roy worked hard but the deck was stacked against him.” “I was right!” the president said in a pre-dawn Twitter post Wednesday, a day after Democrat Doug Jones narrowly defeated Moore, a former state Supreme Court chief justice, in Alabama’s special Senate election.<\/p>\n
NEW YORK (AP) \u2014 The man accused of setting off an explosion in the New York City subway is expected to make his first court appearance Wednesday. Prosecutors say Akayed Ullah, a Bangladeshi immigrant, made it clear from a hospital bed that he was on a mission to punish the United States for attacking the Islamic State group. Ullah sustained burns Monday from the pipe bomb strapped to his body.<\/p>\n
WASHINGTON (AP) \u2014 Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand got a fight she wants after President Donald Trump attacked her in a provocative tweet that claimed she’d begged him for campaign contributions and would “do anything” for them. Gillibrand, a New York Democrat, is up for re-election next year and is considered a possible presidential contender in 2020. She has been a leading voice in the national debate over how to confront sexual assault and harassment.<\/p>\n
ISTANBUL (AP) \u2014 Iran’s President Hassan Rouhani says the only reason Donald Trump “dared” recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel was because some in the region sought to establish ties to Israel. Rouhani’s comments on Wednesday came during the extraordinary summit of the Organization of Islamic Organization following Trump’s decision.<\/p>\n
MOSCOW (AP) \u2014 President Vladimir Putin’s Russia has emerged as a key stakeholder in the Middle East. Putin has brokered deals with Iran, Saudi Arabia, Turkey and Israel. Russia now has a regional footprint that even the Soviet Union couldn’t dream of during the Cold War era. Putin sought to save an ally from imminent collapse and break Russia’s international isolation over a crisis in Ukraine when he launched a military campaign in Syria two years ago. He has achieved that and more.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
