## Resource

Munetaka Murakami, Chicago White Sox slugger, broke his heart for his hometown of Kumamoto, Japan, after a devastating 7.1 magnitude earthquake struck — a region still reeling from a similar disaster a decade ago. Though his family is safe and his parents returned early to assess damage, Murakami was visibly shaken, calling the event “truly unfortunate.” He’s rallying support for relief efforts while staying connected with loved ones. Meanwhile, on the field, the White Sox lost again — 3-2 to the Yankees, with Gerrit Cole dominating for six innings — deepening their playoff struggles as they’ve now lost five of seven games and see their AL Central lead slip away.
