The Phillies clinched the National League Championship Series and ended the Padres’ World Series dreams, at least for this year. Because for Padres fans – the people who nearly rocked Petco Park off its foundation last week – and the millions of others who felt united in celebrating the home team's victories, there is always next year. Then, Governor Gavin Newsom and his Republican challenger, state Sen. Brian Dahle squared off in a debate Sunday on everything from inflation and high gas prices to homelessness and abortion rights.

"Not Working: A New Musical for a Changed World" debuts in three intimate theater spaces starting Friday.
