The Yankees (71-55) and the Orioles (61-66) conclude their three-game AL East series tonight at Camden Yards. With wins in the first two games, New York has pulled to within five games of first-place Tampa Bay in the AL East. Baltimore opened the series sitting in the final Wild Card spot but now are 1.5 games behind the Twins for a postseason berth.
Last night the Yankees won, 5-3. Along the way, they may have gotten a little help from the umpires. More on that in a moment. The Orioles struck first in unusual fashion in the bottom of the first. Jackson Holliday stole home to give Baltimore an early 1-0 lead. New York answered quickly. In the second inning, Ryan McMahon delivered an RBI single that scored Jazz Chisholm Jr., tying the game before being thrown out trying to stretch the hit into a double. Moments later, George Lombard Jr. hit a sacrifice fly that brought home Spencer Jones to give the Yankees a 2-1 advantage. The Yankees extended the lead in the third when Ben Rice launched a 447-foot solo homer to right-center field, his 34th home run of the season. Baltimore responded immediately as Pete Alonso crushed a 423-foot homer of his own in the bottom half, trimming the deficit to 3-2. The game remained close into the sixth inning when Orioles outfielder Dylan Beavers tied the score at 3-3 with a solo homer to left-center.
The pivotal and controversial moment arrived in the seventh. Alonso thought he had given Baltimore the lead with a deep drive down the left-field line. The ball clearly looked to tuck inside the foul pole but was ruled foul...even after review. Instead of taking a 4-3 lead, the Orioles remained tied, and the Yankees took advantage in the eighth inning. In the top of the eighth, New York loaded the bases and grabbed the lead when Lombard Jr. beat out an infield single, scoring Heliot Ramos. Moments later, Orioles reliever Yennier Cano uncorked a wild pitch, allowing Jazz Chisholm Jr. to score an insurance run and give the Yankees a 5-3 advantage. The Yankees bullpen closed the door from there. Brent Headrick earned the victory with a scoreless seventh, while David Bednar recorded his 29th save with a clean ninth inning.
Tonight's pitching matchup features a couple of veteran righthanders in Gerrit Cole (6-6, 3.22 ERA) and Kyle Bradish (7-11, 3.65 ERA). After missing last season and the first couple of months this season following Tommy John surgery, Cole has been an ace over his last four starts allowing a mere four earned runs across 24.2 innings. As good as he has been, the Yankees' bats have rarely supported him, though, as New York has lost four of his last seven starts. Bradish has also been stingy over the past couple of months. The righthander has allowed two or fewer earned runs in his last three starts and in five of his last six outings. The O's have won four of his last six starts.
Lets dive into tonight's matchup and find a sweat or two.

The Miami Dolphins had another former player announce their retirement recently, as running back Myles Gaskin called it a career after seven seasons in the NFL, including four with the Dolphins.
"Football . . . there will never be enough words to explain how I feel about you, so I won't even try," Gaskin wrote on social media. "What I will do is give all the game you gave me to the next generation of young players who dare to be great. Thank you. It's been real."
The 29-year-old played at Washington from 2015-18, earning All-Pac-12 honors thrice before the Dolphins took him in the seventh round (No. 234 overall) of the 2019 NFL draft. In four years with Miami, he rushed for 1,355 yards and seven touchdowns on 3.8 yards per attempt while catching 101 passes for an additional 701 yards and six scores.
After Miami released him in 2023, he had stints with the Minnesota Vikings, Los Angeles Rams, Jacksonville Jaguars, Baltimore Ravens and Seattle Seahawks. In all of those stints, he only rushed for an addition five total yards and caught one pass for 11 yards.

Fans were left dazed and confused by a controversial call during Game 2 between the Orioles and Yankees in Baltimore, which ruled Pete Alonso's potential go-ahead home run a foul ball, even after an on-field review. Alonso crushed the ball into the left-field stands, and it clearly appeared to be to the right of the foul pole and should have been called fair.
Much to the home fans' surprise, the umpiring crew missed the call. The review failed to overturn the decision, ruling it a foul ball and leaving the home dugout and the Orioles fans perplexed. Ultimately, the game continued, and the visitors scored two runs in the eighth, took a 5-3 lead, and won.
Watch the video here:
Fans reacted quickly to the controversial call on social media, with many criticizing the league and the umpiring crew, and some even implying that officials favored the Yankees.
"Yeah, MLB is rigging the game right in front of us," one fan commented.

Klarna (NYSE: KLAR) is Swedish for "clear up" or "sort it out." The name feels ironic today, with the stock down 21.9% as of 10 a.m. ET, despite a strong Q2 report. Aren't headline surprises supposed to lift stocks?

The Los Angeles Lakers have certainly been going through lots of changes over the past year and a half or so. After they traded for new franchise player Luka Doncic in early February of 2025, the Buss family, which had owned the team since 1979, agreed to sell a majority share of it to Mark Walter, and that sale became official in October.
Last week, Walter agreed to sell that share to Josh Kushner and Bob Iger. The Buss family currently owns a 17.8% share of the Lakers, but on Monday, five of its members voted to sell that remaining stake to Kushner and Iger.
The one dissenter in the Buss family when it comes to selling that remaining stake is Jeanie Buss, the team's governor. According to an ESPN report, her five siblings feel she showed too much haste in making that initial sale to Walter last year.
"Last June, the Buss family made the decision to sell to Mark Walter at a valuation of $10 billion, a then-record for a U.S. professional sports franchise. Multiple Buss siblings, however, felt frustrated at Jeanie and misled by her over what they believe was a rushed sale, sources close to the process told ESPN. Those siblings felt pressured to vote 'yes.'"
Dr. Buss, the late father of the Buss siblings, first purchased the team in 1979, and it won 10 NBA championships before he died in 2013. The younger Buss became its controlling owner following his passing.

The runs came early and often for the Red Sox in this one as they scored in the five of the first seven frames, including three in the opening inning to set the tone. However, the most impressive baseball of the night came in the bottom of the third.
Right after Ranger Suarez served up a grand slam to erase an early 3-0 Sox lead, Boston counterpunched and posted a pair of runs on their own. Adley Rutschman got things started with this home run.
View Link
That bomb was impressive for two reasons: First, Rutschman's struggled out of the gate in his first week in a Red Sox uniform, going 0 for his last 18 before this series started. So getting him off the schneid is an encouraging sign.
But secondly, when and how a guy breaks out of a slump tells you a little something about how useful they might be in a playoff push, and this shot checked a bunch of boxes. It was a home run, it was crushed, it tied the game, it came right after Arizona scored four runs. Lots to like there!

On Monday morning, USA TODAY college sports trending writer Austin Curtright published an article **** led "Big Ten football's 10 most impactful transfers for 2026: From Josh Hoover to Terry Moore," which featured two new UCLA Bruin players.
Senior running back Wayne Knight was the first Bruin featured on the list.
"An All-American last season by multiple outlets, Wayne Knight also followed his former head coach, joining up with Bob Chesney from James Madison at UCLA.
"Knight was a difference-maker last season for the Dukes, rushing for 1,373 yards with nine touchdowns, also catching 40 passes for 397 yards and another score. He has a small frame at 5-7, 193 pounds, but showed he can hold his own against tougher opponents. Against Oregon in the College Football Playoff, he rushed for 110 yards on 6.5 yards per carry.
"Knight is on multiple preseason All-American teams ahead of the 2026 season, and has huge expectations in his final season of eligibility."

NEW YORK — The Giants' offseason-long interest in adding a running back culminated Tuesday in the signing of free agent Najee Harris.
The 6-1, 242-pound veteran is a physical runner who John Harbaugh knows well as an opponent.
Harris, 28, rushed for 1,000-plus yards in four straight seasons for the Pittsburgh Steelers from 2021-24 in the same AFC North division as Harbaugh's Baltimore Ravens.
Then he signed with Harbaugh's brother, Jim, and the Los Angeles Chargers last year before tearing his Achilles three games into the regular season.
"I know there's gonna be a lot of questions about how I'll come back," Harris said Tuesday after practice. "I'm ready to answer all those."

El SEGUNDO, Calif. -- It only took seven reps for a key Chargers offensive lineman to go down. Center Tyler Biadasz had his head down as he was carted into the facility.
On the seventh play of Tuesday morning's joint practice, Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert threw a pass downfield to receiver Quentin Johnston, who made a heck of a grab while also being interfered with by 49ers cornerback Deommodore Lenoir.
While everyone was celebrating downfield, the training staff rushed to Biadasz, who was on the ground in pain and favoring his left leg. During the play to Johnston, left guard Kayode Awosika blocked 49ers defensive lineman Sebastian Valdez into Biadasz's leg.
The Chargers center was helped up by two trainers and onto the cart. As he sat on it, Biadasz hit the cart three times in frustration. Herbert and multiple players came over to offer their support.
"Obviously praying for the best," Herbert said after practice.

The Denver Broncos had a fight break out on Day 13 of training camp practice.
The dust-up happened a few players after quarterback Bo Nix was taken to the ground. Defenders aren't supposed to touch quarterbacks during practice, which defensive coordinator Vance Joseph reiterated after practice.
"Bo's our quarterback, and we don't want anyone near Bo," Joseph said.
Nix was fiery on the field, but he brushed off the fight after practice.
"I love it," the QB said. "It's football. It's getting me ready for the games coming up. It's a physical practice out there, played by physical people. It got intense and we were just really enjoying it. Sometimes in the dog days of summer, practice gets long, and the intensity runs high."

College football turns over the player pool via graduation and transfer portal defections at a dizzying rate in the modern era. Here is a list of my favorite breakout players available in Yahoo Standard P4 College Fantasy Football Leagues.
Play Yahoo's new College Fantasy Football game: Create or join a league now!
One thing is clear when it comes to the QB position in Yahoo Standard Scoring Leagues that utilize 4-point passing touchdown formats: rushing production is imperative. Of the top-10 scoring quarterbacks last year, six of them rushed for 400+ yards and all 10 top scorers topped the 200+ yard rushing barrier.
For his part, Leavitt fits LSU head coach Lane Kiffin's QB archetype perfectly, evoking comparisons to CFF stars Matt Corral and Jaxson Dart. Leavitt averaged a strong 22.5 fantasy PPG in his seven appearances before suffering a season-ending injury. He has the tools and plays in the perfect system to compliment his dual-threat skill set and create explosive college fantasy football production.
With starting RB Jonah Coleman compromised with a leg injury for the second half of the year, Mohammed ripped off two-straight 100-yard games to end the regular season. His 14-carry, 105 yard showing against rival Oregon was an important game for him, as then-Oregon DC Tosh Lupoi took the Cal head coaching job in the offseason and immediately moved to bring in Mohammed to lead the Bears' backfield. For CFF purposes, he secured 17-of-19 targets for 138 yards in 2025 and should have a clear path to 180+ rush attempts with 30+ receptions in Berkley.

For the second time in four days, Bayern Munich midfielder Jamal Musiala has collapsed during a game.
Musiala was able to walk off the field after his second collapse, which came in a friendly against Heidenheim on Tuesday, August 18.
The 23-year-old went down off the ball and Bayern medical personnel immediately rushed onto the pitch, with teammates crowding around in a worrying scene.
Musiala was eventually able to return to his feet and even managed to jog around momentarily before he was subbed out of the match.
The collapse came after a similar incident in a friendly against RB Leipzig on Saturday, August 16.

ST. JOSEPH, Mo. (AP) — Kansas City Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy joked Tuesday that he had the blessing of his wife, Mia, to return to the team after she was shot at their Virginia home because, well, "I know I was driving her and a bunch of my family members crazy in the house."
Mia was shot the evening of July 26, and the couple's 27-year-old son, Elijah, was arrested. Eric left the Chiefs right away to help his family through the crisis, and he returned to camp last week ahead of a preseason loss to the Rams.
"First and foremost, yes, she's on a great road to recovery. Yes, she's doing great," Bieniemy said of his wife, speaking to reporters for the first time since she was rushed to the hospital with multiple wounds. "It is one of the main reasons that I am back here, because of her recovery. She's truly a soldier. She's a saint. And it's been incredible to watch."
Bieniemy was never far from camp, even while he was back home in Ashburn, Virginia. He was able to watch streams of practice from Missouri Western State University, and he was often conferenced into team meetings before and after the workouts.
At one point, he called Chiefs general manager Brett Veach — who he knew was seated beside coach Andy Reid — and told him to give Big Red the phone. Bieniemy proceeded to remind Reid to get on one of his players for a seemingly minor coaching point.

The New York Giants are adding some serious NFL experience to their running back room. The team has agreed to a one-year deal with former first-round pick Najee Harris, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo.
Harris brings a proven track record to New York, but he also arrives after a season-ending injury cut his first year with the Los Angeles Chargers dramatically short.

Harris entered the NFL as the 24th overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft and immediately became a major part of the Pittsburgh Steelers' offense. In each of his first four NFL seasons, Harris rushed for more than 1,000 yards, making him one of the league's most consistent running backs during that stretch.

The New York Giants are signing former Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris, per Mike Garafolo. Harris visited with the Giants yesterday and will now be joining the team. The terms of the deal are yet to be known.
Harris was drafted by the Steelers in the first round of the 2021 NFL Draft and rushed for 1,000 yards in each of his four seasons in Pittsburgh, never missing a game. He signed with the Los Angeles Chargers ahead of the 2025 season after the Steelers declined to pick up his fifth-year option before the 2024 campaign.
Unfortunately for Harris, his stint with the Chargers would be short-lived. He appeared in just three games before tearing his Achilles, ending his season. He now joins his former rival, John Harbaugh, who took over as head coach of the Giants after being fired by the Baltimore Ravens.

Dhruv Jurel's catch to dismiss Lahiru Udara sparked a major controversy in Galle.
Replays suggested the ball may have brushed the turf as the catch was completed.
Reserve umpire Raveendra Wimalasiri was officiating during the first Test between India and Sri Lanka after Rod Tucker fell unwell.
India's charge towards victory in Galle was interrupted by a flashpoint that had the cricket world in near-unanimous agreement, and not in the third umpire's favour. Dhruv Jurel's catch to remove Lahiru Udara was given out despite replays appearing to show the ball making contact with the ground.

Aug 18 (Reuters) - A selloff in U.S. government bonds picked up pace on Tuesday, sending the 30-year Treasury yield to a near two-decade high as fears of an escalation in the Middle East war fuelled inflation worries and pressured stocks.
Oil prices also climbed for the third consecutive day, with Brent crude hitting its highest since late last month after the latest signals from Washington and Tehran crushed hopes of an imminent end to the conflict.
The market's reaction shows that tensions in the Middle East remain a potent source of risk, with a renewed escalation capable of reverberating across oil, bonds, currencies and equities.
It has also shattered the calm after a recent run of soft data in the U.S. eased jitters about rate hikes by the Federal Reserve.

Dominant from the get-go, the Dodgers cruised through an 11-5 win over the Rockies. And fair or not, too many times this season, particularly as of late, it has felt as though this team didn't live up to the expectations of dominating a starting pitcher in a matchup they should handle. While the end product has been there, the underlying numbers suggest a complete mismatch for Tomoyuki Sugano against the Dodgers' offense, and that's precisely what transpired on the field.
The three straight groundouts to open the first were just the Dodgers' bats warming up before putting up seven runs past Sugano with long ***** from Max Muncy and Shohei Ohtani—the former obliterating a 461-foot home run into the second deck in right field, the latter taking Sugano deep in the big leagues for the fourth time in still a rather small sample size. Mookie Betts and Andy Pages each drove in one in the first three innings before Muncy turned the Dodgers' lead into a commanding one with a three-run shot in the third.
By the time Sugano left the mound, the Dodgers held a 7-1 lead and still had four innings to work with. Aiming to increase his tally of just one multi-homer game this season, which, interestingly enough, came in a Dodgers loss, Ohtani brought the power once again in the sixth. The Dodgers designated hitter got a middle-middle sweeper of his dreams and crushed it for a 452-foot home run, certainly not settling for any cheapies, as he would end the game with a team-high four hits.
It wouldn't have felt right for the Dodgers to do all of this slugging as a team and not have Freddie Freeman in on the action. The veteran first baseman, who came into this game with a .240 SLG in August, without an extra-base hit since the end of July, finally broke through with a classic double down the opposite field line in the sixth—one of a couple of two-baggers he'd hit in this lopsided win.
Traditionally in Coors, it's hard to feel safe, but the same level of dominance displayed offensively could also be seen on the mound. Battling himself more than the Rockies hitters, it seemed, Blake Snell only got into trouble for a brief moment when the Rockies stopped going outside the zone in the third.

Filisi Filipe, Herriman (Sr.)
A thousand-yard rusher a year ago, Herriman senior running back Filisi Filipe could be on his way to doubling that output after a dominant season opener last week.
Filipe carried the ball 27 times for 276 yards and three touchdowns, leading Herriman to a 25-14 victory over Bountiful. His 73-yard TD run with 1:14 left in the game iced the victory for the Mustangs.
"Filisi is a workhorse. He has the power, speed and the toughness to be the best running back in the state," said Herriman coach Matt Rickards.
A year ago, Filipe rushed for 1,108 yards and 16 TDs and was voted a second team all-stater.

The Auburn Tigers have made a last-minute addition to their roster, signing former Troy wide receiver Tray Taylor. He is already listed on their online roster.
Taylor recently received a fifth year of eligibility and is another veteran presence for first-year head coach Alex Golesh. He was a contributor at Troy last year, catching 30 passes for 499 yards and three touchdowns. He also rushed for 55 yards and another touchdown on 10 carries.
He started his career at Tyler Junior College, spending two years at the JUCO level before joining the Coastal Carolina Chanticleers ahead of the 2024 season. He was named a Second-Team JUCO All-American as a sophomore after leading Tyler with 39 catches for 850 yards and nine touchdowns in 2023.
Taylor caught 18 passes for 262 yards and one touchdown in his only season at Coastal Carolina. He also carried the ball six times for 58 yards. He handled punt and kick return duties for the Chanticleers as well, averaging 13.5 yards per return on punts and 14.1 yards on kickoffs.
While he returned just one punt last season at Troy, he could also factor in the return game at Auburn. He is listed at 5-foot-6, 150 pounds and is from Shreveport, Louisiana.

There were a lot of positive developments for the Denver Broncos in their 27-7 victory over the Atlanta Falcons in the first game of the preseason. The defense forced some turnovers, Jarrett Stidham played well starting at quarterback, and Offensive Coordinator Davis Webb dialed up a lot of creative plays.
However, one of the best aspects was how well their rushing attack performed. The Broncos rushed for 162 yards against the Falcons in their preseason opener. As a group, they averaged a respectable 4.2 yards per carry and moved the chains with nine first downs on the ground. By doing so, they controlled the pace of the game and the clock, earning themselves a decisive victory in the process.
Head Coach Sean Payton was pleased with the stable of back's efforts. Last season, the Broncos struggled in the latter portion of the season when J.K. Dobbins went down with injury. In order to keep their ground game strong for the upcoming season, Denver drafted Washington standout Jonah Coleman with one of their fourth-round picks in the 2026 NFL Draft.
In his NFL debut, Coleman had just four carries. He racked up 24 yards on the ground, including an impressive 13-yard scamper that showcased his vision, contact balance, and ability to break tackles and create extra yards after contact. All key reasons why the Broncos believe highly in his future with the franchise. When asked why Coleman's carry total and playing time in the preseason opener was limited, Payton had a short and sweet answer.
"I didn't need to see additional evidence of what I've been seeing for three weeks," Payton stated.

Chicago Bears running back Kyle Monangai appears to have avoided a serious knee injury but his status for Week 1 may be in jeopardy. According to ESPN NFL insider Jeremy Fowler, Monangai suffered a hyperextended knee after getting tangled up with defensive tackle Grady Jarrett during Sunday's practice that will cause him to miss multiple weeks.
It's been a tough camp for the Bears when it comes to managing injuries. Key players such as safety Coby Bryant and wide receiver Luther Burden are out for multiple weeks at a minimum, while other players like tackle Braxton Jones and defensive end Montez Sweat have been banged up throughout camp. Monangai is the latest player to go down and, at a minimum, will miss the rest of training camp.
The hope is the Bears' second-year back will be good to go for the team's regular season opener against the Carolina Panthers, taking place in less than four weeks. Monangai is a critical aspect of the ground game, along with D'Andre Swift, and is being counted on to pick up where he left off last year. As a rookie, Monangai rushed for 783 yards and five touchdowns in the regular season.
With Monangai sidelined, running backs Roschon Johnson, Salvon Ahmed, Brittain Brown, and Coleman Bennett will see extended carries with a chance to earn a roster spot as training camp continues.

Aug 16 (Reuters) - More than 180,000 utility customers remained without power across Hawaii on Sunday afternoon after Hurricane Lala brushed the Big Island before being downgraded to a tropical storm.
Some 183,123 customers across Hawaii were without power as of 3:30 p.m. HST (0130 GMT), according to poweroutage.us.Outages in Oahu, the most populated island, had dropped from more than 220,000 to about 130,000 as of Sunday morning, state officials said during a press conference.
State officials received reports of at least 100 homes damaged, Hawaii Governor Josh Green said on Sunday.
At 2 p.m. HST (0000 GMT) Lala was moving west toward southwest Kauai County at about 20 mph (31 kph) with maximum sustained winds near 65 mph, just below the hurricane threshold of 73 mph, according to the latest advisory from the National Hurricane Center. A tropical storm warning remained in effect for Kauai county, although those warnings for Maui and Oahu counties were discontinued earlier on Sunday, according to the hurricane center.

The New York Jets appear to have avoided the worst-case scenario after running back Breece Hall was forced to leave practice early Monday. Hall was able to walk off the field slowly after going down with a non-contact injury during a catch and run.
While non-contact injuries are always concerning, it sounds like Hall avoided a season-ending issue. The running back is dealing with a strained groin, one that Jets head coach Aaron Glenn does not consider a "big deal."
Despite that, the team will still send Hall for further evaluation. It likely wants to take every precaution possible after handing Hall a three-year, $45.75 million deal in May.
Hall, 25, is once again expected to be a focal point of the Jets' offense next season. After being selected by the team in the second round of the 2022 NFL Draft, Hall got off to a tremendous start, rushing for 463 yards in seven games before a torn ACL and meniscus cut his rookie season short.
Hall returned to action the following year, rushing for 994 yards in 17 games. After a modest 846-yard performance in 2024, Hall turned in his best season yet in 2025. Appearing in 16 games, Hall rushed for 1,065 yards and scored four touchdowns for an otherwise miserable Jets offense.

Bayern Munich executive Max Eberl has confirmed that Jamal Musiala is recovering well following a frightening collapse on Saturday. The German international was at the center of alarming scenes during Bayern's Telekom Cup clash with RB Leipzig when he fell to the ground in the closing stages of the 3-1 victory.
Reports indicate that the sweltering heat in Bavaria was a contributing factor in the distressing moment for the 23-year-old, who was able to walk off the field following treatment. The incident unfolded in the final stages of the match, when Musiala began to stagger with no opposing players near him.
Ismael Saibari was among the first players to reach him before his Bayern teammates and medical personnel rushed to Musiala's aid. BILD reported that the midfielder suffered dizziness while competing in temperatures of around 33 degrees, resulting in circulation issues.
