Ole Miss has more than 23,000 students between its Oxford campus and the University of Mississippi Medical Center in Jackson. The medical centre alone has more than 10,000 employees and a budget of more than $1 billion. The next chancellor will face several challenges. Among the difficulties, Boyce will inherit declining enrolment, flagging fundraising and an ailing football team.

Dexter Fowler and Tommy Edman singled before Goldschmidt walked on four pitches to load the bases with one out. Melancon got ahead of Ozuna with two quick strikes, only to give up a liner just inside the third-base bag that put St. Louis ahead for the first time. Wong finished off Melancon with another two-run double, this one down the right-field line. “These are fun, exciting games,” said Matt Carpenter, who came through with a pinch-hit bloop single off Melancon to tie the game in the eighth.

Manager Aaron Boone had predicted that if Gregorius could just find a hole, big hits might follow. Sure enough, Gregorius squibbed an infield single in his first at-bat before lifting his homer into the second deck in right field. The 103-win Yankees used the same lineup in consecutive games for the first time this season, and the nine clicked top to bottom. They drew eight walks for the second straight game, and Aaron Judge led the way with two hits and two free passes.
