• Engineer with close ties to Fox News hosts stabbed to death in random attack in Texas park: report (commstrader.com) — A 62-year-old retired engineer was fatally stabbed in what authorities describe as a random attack at a park in Round Rock after visiting his mother at a local nursing home. Deputies arrested a 26-year-old suspect with a prior record, and friends from Austin and beyond are mourning a man remembered for quiet kindness and deep, supportive friendships.
   

• Osuna recalled, Cauley optioned (lonestarball.com) — The Texas Rangers have called up outfielder Alejandro Osuna from AAA Round Rock and optioned infielder Cam Cauley back to the Express, moves tied to an injury to Joc Pederson. For Round Rock fans, it means another roster shuffle at Dell Diamond and a reminder that several Express players, including Cauley and rehabbing catcher Kyle Higashioka, are on the cusp of big-league opportunities.
