Grich hit a home run in Game 5 that deflected off center fielder Dave Henderson's glove, putting the Angels on top 3-2.

Description & Scalation & Identification & Geographic range

Colombia can be among the larger boas, but this subspecies also includes a number of dwarf insular populations, such as those from various Caribbean islands and the Sonoran Desert of Mexico. These populations represent the smallest members of the species. Scalation Boa imperator has 55-79 dorsal scales, 225-253 ventral scales, 47-69 subcaudal scales, 18-22 supralabial scales and 1-2 anal scales. Identification Boa imperator is commonly confused with other Boa species, such as Boa constrictor. They can be distinguished by virtue of having fewer dorsal and anal scales. Geographic range Boa imperator can be found in some regions of Mexico, Central

A typical controller contains three bidirectional outputs (i.e., frequency-controlled three-phase output), which are controlled by a logic circuit. Simple controllers employ comparators to determine when the output phase should be advanced, while more advanced controllers employ a microcontroller to manage acceleration, control speed and fine-tune efficiency.
Controllers that sense rotor position based on back-EMF have extra challenges in initiating motion because no back-EMF is produced when the

Compared to the Northrop F-5, the Canadian CF-5 had several modifications to make it more suitable for operating in Canadian Forces theaters of operations. In order to address complaints about long takeoff runs, the Canadair version featured a two-position nose landing gear; compressed it operated like the original, but extended (before takeoff) it raised the nose and thereby increased the angle of attack and increased lift.

Boundedness (linguistics) Boundedness in verbs For verbs, certain grammatical aspects express boundedness.
Boundedness is characteristic of perfective aspects such as the Ancient Greek aorist and the Spanish preterite. The simple past of English commonly expresses a bounded event ("I found out"), but sometimes expresses, for example, a stative ("I knew").
The perfective aspect often includes a contextual variation similar to an inchoative aspect or verb, and expresses the beginning of a state.

The city was weakly defended, and Essex entered without much resistance. During the conflict, Bristol was used as a receiving point for the Royalists to accept reinforcements from Ireland.
