Gabriel Arias also went deep for the Guardians, who took two of three games in the series from the two-time defending champions.

Williams (1-1) walked three and allowed only two hits, both singles by Andy Pages. Freddie Freeman homered off Cade Smith with two outs in the ninth, spoiling Cleveland's shutout bid.

Williams overpowered the Dodgers from the outset and faced just one batter more than the minimum through five innings. He ran into his only trouble in the sixth when Pages led off with a single and Alex Freeland worked a walk to bring Shohei Ohtani to the plate as the potential go-ahead run.

The 6-foot-6 right-hander induced a grounder from Ohtani on the first pitch for a 4-6-3 double play and got Kyle Tucker to fly out to end the inning.

Williams completed his night with a perfect seventh, punctuated by striking out Will Smith swinging on an elevated 96 mph fastball.

Ohtani also struck out against left-hander Erik Sabrowski with runners at second and third to end the eighth. Ohtani went 0 for 3 with a walk at the plate, extending his on-base streak to a career-best 37 games since last August.

Yamamoto (1-1) pitched six innings, allowing four hits and two runs. He walked one and struck out two.

The loss dampened a historic night for the Dodgers, who became the first team to start a Japanese-born pitcher in three consecutive games. Roki Sasaki took the ball in the series opener andOhtani won the middle game.

Backstage, the father-daughter duo appeared to be with country music stars including Brad Paisley. At one point, Pat even got"roped"into dancing with the Opry Square Dancers — a very different moment from his decades behind the puzzle board.

AI machine sorts clothes faster than humans to boost textile recycling in China

ZHANGJIAGANG, China (AP) — In an industrial park in Zhangjiagang, a small city on China's east coast, a large humming and hissing machine feeds on piles of used clothes and sorts them.

Associated Press

The novelty? It usesartificial intelligenceto sort them by composition at high speed, offering a glimpse into how AI could play a role in reducing the impact of synthetic textile waste.

The Fastsort-Textile machine, named one of Time magazine's Best Inventions of 2025, was created by DataBeyond, a Chinese AI recycling company founded in 2018.

"We can make full use of textile waste and reduce the amount that is incinerated which will be a great help to recycling resources," DataBeyond CEO Mo Zhuoya said.

Synthetic textiles are derived from fossil fuels and are a low-cost, popular option for fashion production. Altogether they account for around 70% of global textile production, according to a report from Amsterdam-based nonprofit Circle Economy, which analyzes ways to reduce textile waste.

Textile waste is a major global pollutant, with China as the leading contributor. China led global textile exports at $142 billion, more than double that of the European Union, according to the World Trade Organization's 2025 Key Insights and Trends report.

Fastsort-Textile is being used only in one location in China: Shanhesheng Environmental Technology Ltd., a textile recycling facility in Zhangjiagang that installed the machine in 2025.

The equipment uses an AI scanner to read the composition of such textiles and sorts them by fibers, after which they can be recycled.

Fastsort-Textile sorts through 100 kilograms (220 pounds) of clothes in two to three minutes , compared to around four hours for one worker to do the same thing. The machine can process two tons per hour, while two people would need two days and at reduced accuracy, according to analysis by Shanhesheng.

The AI scanner measuring 5-by-2 meters (16-by-6.5 feet) works with a series of conveyer belts. Workers load stacks of textiles onto belts that move them through the scanner, which emits a sharp hiss while reading the textiles' composition. A live video feed displays the reading on the scanner's side.

It takes less than one second to accurately read one item's material composition, which is set according to customers' desired benchmarks.

After the scanning process, the textiles are transported to nylon and polyester sorting areas for recycling. Items below the benchmark are sorted into a different area mainly for incineration or landfill, which is where textile pollution wreaks its most damage.

"This sort of thing saves money on labor costs, it saves time. When people sort materials, they can't tell accurately if it's 80 or 90% polyester. This machine rarely makes mistakes," Shanhesheng Sales Manager Cui Peng said.

Previously, up to 50% of the processed textiles were deemed unrecyclable and sent to landfills or incinerated. That number is down to 30% with the Fastsort-Textile machine, Sales Director Li Bin said.

"Now, though machines are already capable of sorting, people's energy is limited," he said. "People can't work for 24 hours straight, so robots may take over the roles in the end. The ultimate goal is a 'dark factory' with the robots running 24 hours."
