A few people on golf carts drove along the island’s roads ahead of the storm — just before an evacuation. Forecasters predicted the storm would strengthen to at least a Category 3 hurricane before landfall, with storm...

It was an obvious play on his last name, a grasp at the low-hanging fruit. “It’s a good nickname, Burger King,” Burger said before Sunday’s 2-1 win over the Washington Nationals. Every King needs his Burger. Thanks for the gifts, @BurgerKing! #MakeItMiami pic.twitter.com/jQuqwuQ1K3 — Miami Marlins (@Marlins) August 14,...
