Eddy Alvarez, who plays baseball for the U.S. team, could become just the sixth person ever to medal in both the Winter and Summer Olympics. He took home a silver medal in Sochi for speed skating.

New estimates show the U.S. is on track to see a big rise in cases and more than triple the number of deaths by October.
