After a ruff start, the Sox are still a sad 6-9 but are only two games out of first place. Tonight, we ball behind Garrett Crochet to help close that gap in a wide-open AL East (and AL in general). Game’s at 7:40 p.m. and the Sox will face Bailey Ober, who’s had a tuff start to the season himself. Here are the lineups:

Given the venue, I’d like to add: Fuck ICE. Or maybe I’ll just let the Boss do it:

The FBI is investigating a physical confrontation that occurred during an anti-ICE protest at the Whipple Federal Building in Minnesota over the weekend. Several protesters were arrested, with three facing assault charges and one charged with obstruction. A video posted on social media showed a protester, Savannah Hernandez, being knocked down during the incident.

Why it matters

The Whipple Federal Building has been a site of ongoing protests against ICE operations in Minnesota, and this latest incident highlights the tensions and potential for violence at these demonstrations. The FBI’s involvement suggests the incident is being taken seriously as a potential violation of civil rights or other federal laws.

The details

The confrontation occurred during a protest called ‘Bye Bye Bondi,’ referring to former U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi. The Whipple Building has been the headquarters for ICE operations in the area, and protests have continued at the site since federal officials increased their presence in Minnesota in December. Savannah Hernandez, a contributor for Turning Point USA, posted a video showing her being knocked down by protesters, some of whom were chanting that they were ‘ANTIFA.’

• The incident occurred on Saturday, April 12, 2026 during an anti-ICE protest.
• Four people were arrested at the end of the demonstration.

What they’re saying

What’s next

The FBI investigation is ongoing, and authorities will determine if any federal charges will be filed related to the incident.

Minneapolis’ most talked-about crime fighter doesn’t wear a badge—he wears a skull mask and answers to “NoMark.” The Star Tribune reports the anonymous twentysomething has drawn more than 500,000 followers by patrolling neighborhoods like Dinkytown in all-black gear, posting GoPro-style videos of breaking up fights and recovering stolen bikes. He’s part of a subculture known as “Reals”—everyday people who adopt superhero personas to fight crime in real life—though his version leans heavily on social media. The videos tap into lingering unease after pandemic-era crime spikes and slower police response times, even as overall crime has eased. While some early clips were staged, NoMark says he now focuses on real incidents. “It was a joke,” he said. “And 1776063127 I’m actually trying to do something.”

His origin story isn’t hard to follow: After a nearby shooting and what he considered to be a slow police response, he figured he could help by patrolling at night. His interventions are modest—escorting intoxicated people, mediating disputes, or stepping into fights before they escalate—but visible. He’s also chased viral moments, including tracking down a supposed “Minnesota Pisser” prankster (later revealed to be staged). Similar “real-life superhero” efforts have popped up elsewhere, including in Seattle, where KING 5 reports a nurse known as “Red Ranger” patrols downtown with a group focused less on crime-fighting than care, handing out food, checking on unhoused people, and occasionally de-escalating conflicts.

But NoMark is one part performer and another part vigilante. He’s also a lightning rod. One video commenter said: “I can’t tell if this is great performance art or if I am actually watching someone fall into a Batman-based psychosis.” Critics say the appeal of figures like him reflects lingering safety fears even as crime declines—and warn that civilian intervention can introduce new risks, especially in unpredictable situations. But NoMark says he carries only a crowbar and pocketknife and uses modest social media income mostly to cover gas. His tangible wins may be small, but fans say the bigger impact is cultural—nudging people to step in rather than stand by. One man who says NoMark helped him with a property dispute said, “People can take a hint from him about the way they’re living their life.”
