Verano, as you may know, is Spanish for “summer,” and the new 2013 Buick Verano, what Buick calls a luxury sport sedan, feels like summer, at least a grown up version of it. Take it on a long drive, get out in the open, and push through all six gears of its manual transmission,...

The Dodgers will say “Wattup?” to Russell Martin catching behind the plate for the Pirates. He served time as a...
