<v Speaker 1>This is WBZ, Boston's news radio. We defining local news

2
00:00:09.240 --> 00:00:12.279
<v Speaker 1>eighty two degrees in Boston at four o'clock. Good afternoon,

3
00:00:12.320 --> 00:00:15.279
<v Speaker 1>I'm Ben Parkner. Here's what's happening. Just over two weeks

4
00:00:15.320 --> 00:00:18.239
<v Speaker 1>to go until election day. Both Vice President Kamala Harris

5
00:00:18.280 --> 00:00:21.800
<v Speaker 1>and former President Donald Trumper crossing their t's, dotting their

6
00:00:21.839 --> 00:00:25.719
<v Speaker 1>eyes and hitting the key swing states looking to sway voters.

7
00:00:25.879 --> 00:00:28.640
<v Speaker 1>The Vice President making stops in three different states today,

8
00:00:28.640 --> 00:00:31.519
<v Speaker 1>including a town hall in Pennsylvania where she was joined

9
00:00:31.519 --> 00:00:35.079
<v Speaker 1>by former Republican Congresswoman list Chamy Chance to.

10
00:00:35.079 --> 00:00:39.640
<v Speaker 2>Say, you know, we're going to reject cruelty. We're going

11
00:00:39.719 --> 00:00:43.600
<v Speaker 2>to reject the kind of vile vitriol that we've seen

12
00:00:44.000 --> 00:00:49.719
<v Speaker 2>from Donald Trump. We're going to reject the misogyny that

13
00:00:49.759 --> 00:00:51.399
<v Speaker 2>we've seen from Donald Trump.

14
00:00:51.240 --> 00:00:52.159
<v Speaker 3>And JD Vance.

15
00:00:54.079 --> 00:00:57.000
<v Speaker 1>Meantime, the former president to return to North Carolina today,

16
00:00:57.119 --> 00:00:59.960
<v Speaker 1>where he visited areas that were ravaged by Hurricane Helene.

17
00:01:00.159 --> 00:01:00.880
<v Speaker 4>I'm asking.

18
00:01:01.039 --> 00:01:04.159
<v Speaker 3>Before the former president arrived in North Carolina, the state's

19
00:01:04.159 --> 00:01:08.280
<v Speaker 3>Democratic governor publicly urged him not to spread misinformation but look.

20
00:01:08.400 --> 00:01:11.879
<v Speaker 3>Speaking east of Ashville, Donald Trump described FEMA's rescue effort

21
00:01:11.959 --> 00:01:15.799
<v Speaker 3>as almost nonexistent, and he repeated his unfounded claim that

22
00:01:15.840 --> 00:01:19.280
<v Speaker 3>the agency has misdirected disaster funding. It's all done, They've

23
00:01:19.319 --> 00:01:23.640
<v Speaker 3>spent it on illegal migrants. FEMA says the sheltering of

24
00:01:23.680 --> 00:01:26.560
<v Speaker 3>migrants is funded separately from disaster relief and at a

25
00:01:26.560 --> 00:01:30.159
<v Speaker 3>fraction of the cost. Stephen Portnoy ABC News.

26
00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:33.719
<v Speaker 1>Washington former President Trump facing a defamation lawsuit. Earlier today,

27
00:01:33.799 --> 00:01:36.799
<v Speaker 1>members of the Central Park Five filed the suit against

28
00:01:36.799 --> 00:01:40.040
<v Speaker 1>the former president, accusing him of spreading false, misleading, and

29
00:01:40.079 --> 00:01:43.519
<v Speaker 1>defamatory statements about their nineteen eighty nine case during the

30
00:01:43.560 --> 00:01:47.760
<v Speaker 1>presidential debate last month on ABC Attorneys representing the five

31
00:01:47.840 --> 00:01:50.959
<v Speaker 1>men filed the civil suit in a federal court in Pennsylvania.

32
00:01:51.120 --> 00:01:54.680
<v Speaker 1>They're seeking monetary damages. The men were accused of a

33
00:01:54.760 --> 00:01:57.040
<v Speaker 1>violent rape of a woman in Central Park in nineteen

34
00:01:57.079 --> 00:02:00.280
<v Speaker 1>eighty nine. They maintained their innocence, but were convict and

35
00:02:00.319 --> 00:02:02.480
<v Speaker 1>went to prison. A decade after the attack, a different

36
00:02:02.480 --> 00:02:05.640
<v Speaker 1>man confest and that was confirmed with DNA. The former

37
00:02:05.680 --> 00:02:08.479
<v Speaker 1>president made comments that the group entered guilty please and

38
00:02:08.560 --> 00:02:11.319
<v Speaker 1>killed a person ultimately, which is not true. In a

39
00:02:11.360 --> 00:02:14.800
<v Speaker 1>statement ABC News, a campaign spokesperson for the former president

40
00:02:14.840 --> 00:02:19.240
<v Speaker 1>calls it another election interference lawsuit. I like the weather

41
00:02:19.560 --> 00:02:22.960
<v Speaker 1>toid a record today in Boston eighty two degrees. We've

42
00:02:22.960 --> 00:02:25.759
<v Speaker 1>been unseasonally mild, but it still is closing in on

43
00:02:25.840 --> 00:02:29.439
<v Speaker 1>November and closing in on flu season. WBC's Mike Maclin

44
00:02:29.479 --> 00:02:32.039
<v Speaker 1>tells us it's time to get vaccinated in Boston. We'll

45
00:02:32.080 --> 00:02:32.800
<v Speaker 1>give you free shot.

46
00:02:32.879 --> 00:02:35.759
<v Speaker 5>The free vaccination clinics will take place across the city

47
00:02:35.800 --> 00:02:38.599
<v Speaker 5>over the next three weeks. The hope is that Boston

48
00:02:38.680 --> 00:02:42.199
<v Speaker 5>residents will take advantage of them and protect themselves against

49
00:02:42.199 --> 00:02:45.159
<v Speaker 5>the flu and COVID nineteen as we head into the

50
00:02:45.199 --> 00:02:49.479
<v Speaker 5>colder winter months. The clinics are free. This week. There's

51
00:02:49.520 --> 00:02:53.120
<v Speaker 5>a clinic on Thursday from one to five pm. Next

52
00:02:53.120 --> 00:02:55.520
<v Speaker 5>week there's a clinic on Tuesday at the Hyde Park

<v Speaker 5>Mike Macklin WBZ Boston's News Radio.

57
00:03:11.240 --> 00:03:14.199
<v Speaker 1>Eighty two degrees today in Boston. That tied a record

58
00:03:14.240 --> 00:03:18.719
<v Speaker 1>set in nineteen twenty, and we will have some warmer

59
00:03:18.759 --> 00:03:21.080
<v Speaker 1>weather through at least the next couple of days, although

60
00:03:21.080 --> 00:03:23.759
<v Speaker 1>Tomorrow is going to be a bit of an off

61
00:03:23.840 --> 00:03:26.319
<v Speaker 1>day near the coast where we'll get a sea breeze.

62
00:03:26.360 --> 00:03:29.240
<v Speaker 1>So tonight we're clear and mild, temperatures fifties and Boston

63
00:03:29.280 --> 00:03:31.719
<v Speaker 1>forties and some of the suburbs, and then tomorrow probably

64
00:03:31.719 --> 00:03:33.960
<v Speaker 1>only in the upper sixties right along the coast with

65
00:03:34.039 --> 00:03:37.000
<v Speaker 1>a mix of sun and clouds, but we will be milder,

66
00:03:37.159 --> 00:03:40.080
<v Speaker 1>mid to upper seventies inland. Clear tomorrow and i'd low

00:03:43.599 --> 00:03:46.919
<v Speaker 1>it looks like mid to upper seventies with some sunshine.

69
00:03:47.120 --> 00:03:49.639
<v Speaker 1>Then a shower or two pushes across the area late

70
00:03:49.680 --> 00:03:53.120
<v Speaker 1>Wednesday night into early Thursday and brings in cooler weather.

71
00:03:53.400 --> 00:03:56.520
<v Speaker 1>The sun will breakout Thursday afternoon, but we'll have temperatures

72
00:03:56.560 --> 00:03:59.039
<v Speaker 1>only in the low to mid sixties. Right now, it

73
00:03:59.080 --> 00:04:02.000
<v Speaker 1>is eighty two degrees in Boston that again did tie

74
00:04:02.000 --> 00:04:05.159

94
00:04:56.560 --> 00:04:59.759
<v Speaker 1>You know what would be awesome? Baseball at Fenway Park

95
00:04:59.800 --> 00:05:03.800
<v Speaker 1>to no About forty nine years ago tonight there was

96
00:05:03.959 --> 00:05:07.879
<v Speaker 1>and it's perhaps the greatest World Series game ever, certainly

97
00:05:07.920 --> 00:05:09.000
<v Speaker 1>one of the greatest endings.

98
00:05:09.040 --> 00:05:12.279
<v Speaker 4>What Socks read Game six of the seventy five World Series.

99
00:05:12.319 --> 00:05:13.920
<v Speaker 4>The Socks were down six to three in the eighth

100
00:05:13.959 --> 00:05:16.800
<v Speaker 4>inning when bench player Bernie Carbo hit a three run

101
00:05:16.839 --> 00:05:19.000
<v Speaker 4>home run to tie it up in fource extra innings,

102
00:05:19.000 --> 00:05:21.720
<v Speaker 4>and then in the twelfth the shot heard around the world.

103
00:05:21.879 --> 00:05:25.079
<v Speaker 4>At least New England Socks catcher Carlton Fisk dug into

104
00:05:25.160 --> 00:05:28.480
<v Speaker 4>the batter's box and burn it the loo five.

105
00:05:28.720 --> 00:05:31.040

<v Speaker 1>Five World Series.

108
00:05:36.600 --> 00:05:39.240
<v Speaker 4>The image of Fisk waving the ballfares it clanged off

109
00:05:39.240 --> 00:05:41.720
<v Speaker 4>the foul pole. It's ingrained in a whole generation of

110
00:05:41.720 --> 00:05:44.079
<v Speaker 4>sports fans around here. The Socks would go on to

111
00:05:44.120 --> 00:05:46.720
<v Speaker 4>lose Game seven, but the game and all that drama

112
00:05:46.800 --> 00:05:47.680
