A woman who found hairs in her Aldi dip has said she was disappointed the company included an AI prompt in its reply when she complained.
Jo Reeves from Cotteridge in Birmingham said she found the "vile" hairs when she popped out for a snack, while her partner was in hospital.
The AI prompt included the phrase: "Make it short and concise but do not overdo it" and Reeves said: "Everyone uses AI but the language is disappointing as a customer.
An Aldi spokesperson said: "This response fell well below our normal standards of customer service. We have contacted Ms Reeves directly to apologise and fully resolve the issue she had with our product."
Reeves said: "My partner was having an op in Worcester hospital so popped to the local Aldi to get 'recovery food'."

Red Sox Prospect's Season In Jeopardy After Unfortunate Injury originally appeared on NESN. Add NESN as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
Kristian Campbell's bid to return to the Boston Red Sox took an unfortunate turn with little time remaining in the minor league season. The Worcester Red Sox placed Campbell on the seven-day injured list Thursday because of a left foot contusion, according to MassLive's Chris Cotillo. Infielder Max Ferguson was promoted from Double-A Portland to fill the open roster spot.
Campbell reportedly had been dealing with a sore toe before leaving Tuesday's game against the Lehigh Valley IronPigs in the sixth inning. The timing makes the injury particularly frustrating. Worcester has only 10 games remaining before its season concludes Sept. 20, leaving Campbell with a limited window to return.
It also could eliminate whatever chance remained of Campbell joining Boston for its postseason push.
The 24-year-old has spent the entire 2026 campaign in Triple-A after struggling during his first major league opportunity. He batted .223 with a .664 OPS, six home runs and 21 RBIs across 67 games for the Red Sox in 2025. Campbell, once ranked as MLB Pipeline's No. 7 overall prospect, produced an encouraging opening month and earned American League Rookie of the Month honors after batting .301 with four home runs. His production dropped considerably afterward, however, and Boston optioned him to Worcester in June 2025.

MOOSIC, PA(WBRE/WYOU)— The RailRiders first place push is much in thanks to the MiLB International League Player of the Week Anthony Volpe leading off its lineup. Volpe won the weekly award after a stellar series against the Worcester Red Sox.
Volpe finished the week 11 of 21 from the plate, hitting .524 against Worcester. The RailRiders infielder hit three doubles, and three home runs in six games. Volpe drove in six runs and scored eight times of his own. He stole five bags over the six-game set, on top of three base on ******* .
Since his returned to the RailRiders lineup Volpe has blasted 10 home runs in a month's time back in Triple-A. His return has aided Scranton/Wilkes-Barre's chase for the second half playoff push. SWB is currently a game out of first place behind Rochester.

The Boston Red Sox made a late-season roster move Sunday, calling up utility player Nate Eaton rather than top prospect Kristian Campbell.
Interim manager Chad Tracy explained the decision, noting that Eaton is simply the better option in the outfield right now. Eaton has appeared in 14 games with Boston this season, posting a .125 batting average with one home run, five RBIs and two stolen bases across 32 at-bats.

His value is not in his bat but in his glove, as he has shown the ability to play third base, center field, right field, shortstop, left field, designated hitter and second base at the big-league level.
Campbell, 24, remains at Triple-A Worcester, where the Red Sox want him getting consistent at-bats rather than sitting on a bench in a limited role.

Red Sox Rally Comes Too Late After Rookie Starter's Nightmare Outing originally appeared on NESN. Add NESN as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Boston Red Sox nearly found another miracle against the Seattle Mariners on Tuesday night. This time, the hole was simply too deep. Boston scored four runs in the ninth inning and brought the tying run to the plate, but its comeback attempt ended with a 9-6 loss at Fenway Park.
The Red Sox collected 11 hits and received home runs from Mickey Gasper and Jahmai Jones. However, rookie starter Jedixson Paez allowed eight runs over 3 2/3 innings, leaving Boston to spend nearly the entire night chasing Seattle.
The loss dropped the Red Sox to 75-64 and evened the three-game series at one victory apiece.
Dominic Canzone opened the scoring with a solo home run in the first inning. Gasper immediately answered with a 404-foot solo shot in the bottom half, continuing his impressive production since returning from Triple-A Worcester.

Red Sox Place Valuable Reliever On Injured List, Recall Rookie Right-Hander originally appeared on NESN. Add NESN as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Boston Red Sox bullpen took another hit Tuesday, and the timing could hardly be worse.
Boston placed right-handed reliever Tyron Guerrero on the 15-day injured list with right shoulder inflammation. The club recalled right-hander Wyatt Olds from Triple-A Worcester to fill Guerrero's spot on the active roster.
The Red Sox announced the moves before Tuesday night's game against the Seattle Mariners at Fenway Park.
Guerrero has been one of Boston's most dependable relievers this season. The 35-year-old owns a 3.26 ERA and 1.14 WHIP with 36 strikeouts over 38 2/3 innings. He has appeared in 38 games, posting a 1-2 record.

WORCESTER — Reinforcements are coming for the Boston Red Sox.
Just before 8 p.m. on Saturday evening, Roman Anthony and Trevor Story walked out of Polar Park together with their Boston Red Sox duffle bags already packed in the back of a black car that eschewed them out of the Triple-A ballpark.
The two Red Sox players appear to have concluded their rehab ****** ignments and will return to the Red Sox soon.
"I'm excited to get back," Roman Anthony said a few minutes before leaving. "I'm excited to just get back to the normalcy of seeing the guys and being around the boys and for it to be a different environment."
"I feel like I'm ready," said Story after he and Anthony both played in the WooSox' game. "I'm excited."

WORCESTER – The Holy Cross football team looked forward to the challenge of and the opportunity to face nationally-ranked Lehigh, the defending Patriot League champion, in its season opener Aug. 29 at Fitton Field.
The Crusaders, largely new in 2026 with the infusion of 15 transfers and 18 first-year players and coming off a 3-9 campaign, were hopeful of starting the year fresh.
The No. 11 Mountain Hawks quickly dispelled those aspirations during a dominant first quarter.
Lehigh star senior running back Luke Yoder rushed for 90 of his 130 yards and two of his three touchdowns in the first 15 minutes, and the Mountain Hawks rolled to a 35-10 win in Rich Nagy's debut as coach.
"Against a (top team in the country), you're going to find out real quick where you're at," HC coach Dan Curran said. "There were some things we're excited about and there are some things we have to correct moving forward."

Roman Anthony's Red Sox Return Delayed Before Crucial Yankees Series originally appeared on NESN. Add NESN as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Boston Red Sox will begin one of their biggest series of the season without Roman Anthony. Anthony remained with Triple-A Worcester on Friday instead of joining Boston for its series opener against the New York Yankees, according to Tommy Cassell of the Worcester Telegram & Gazette.
The development might disappoint Red Sox fans who hoped Anthony's two-hit performance Thursday would serve as the final step in his rehab **** ignment. However, there is no indication the 22-year-old suffered a setback with the torn ligament in his finger that has sidelined him since May.
Instead, the Red Sox appear to be exercising patience with one of their most important players.
Anthony went 2-for-4 with an RBI double and a single Thursday. He has batted .304 across rehab stops with Double-A Portland and Worcester while hitting two home runs. Those numbers suggest Anthony is close. His own evaluation explained why Boston might want to give him more time.

#worcester #series #double

The Boston Red Sox have been without star outfielder Roman Anthony for most of the season, but he could return at any moment.
He has played in seven rehab games between Double-A Portland and Triple-A Worcester. He played the entire game on Thursday night, going 2-for-4 with a single and a double. He has gotten 23 at-bats on the rehab ******* ignment, but he may not be exactly where he wants to be just yet.
"I'm getting more and more at bats, I'm getting to where I want to be at the plate," Anthony told Bridgette Proulx after Thursday's WooSox game. "Am I quite there yet? Probably not. I'm getting close to where I want to be. Like I said, I'll be ready when the time is right."
There is talk of Anthony potentially being called up to join the team in the Bronx for the four-game series against the New York Yankees. However, if he feels like he needs more at-bats, they might let him get those down in Triple-A.

MOOSIC — Growing up, Shelley Duncan had a passion for baseball. He also had an obsession with leadership, learning about people who are at the top of their field or industry and what makes them special.
Being a manager has allowed the 46-year old to combine those things.
"From a young age, I've always tried to look at the game from the lens of a manager," Duncan said. "Even in my playing career, I didn't take for granted playing for the good managers I played for and tried to learn as much as I can from every one of them, knowing that my career after playing could be longer as a coach or manager. I knew this is where ultimately the real future would be."
In his fourth season with the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders, Duncan reaches a milestone Friday night in Worcester. It is his 1,000th game as a minor-league manager.
After his playing days ended in June 2014, Duncan began his managerial career in 2015 in the Arizona Diamondbacks organization. He spent two seasons with the High-A Hillsboro Hops, one year with the Low-A Visalia Rawhide and one with the Double-A Jackson Generals. He compiled a record of 231-199 and won league championships with Hillsboro in 2015 and Jackson in 2018.

Families who lost their homes in a devastating fire have said they are "in turmoil" while they absorb the extent of the damage and adapt to new living arrangements.
Nineteen homes around Three Springs Road in Pershore, Worcestershire, were affected by the blaze on 13 August, as several fires swept through areas of the West Midlands on the same day.
Resident Mike Ruff said he, his partner and three children were living in his brother's living room, while neighbour Roy Candlin and his wife and two children were using an Airbnb. Both families may have to wait up to 18 months before they can return home.
"You wake up every day and you actually can't believe that it's happened to you," Ruff said.
The fire, which started at about 16:30 BST, led to 30 homes being evacuated and caused 200 to be without power for several hours.

He went 2-for-2 with a homer and two walks in his first rehab game and may only need a few more at-bats before returning to the Red Sox lineup, potentially later this week when the team travels to New York after their series in Miami. The 22-year-old outfielder has been out of action since May 4 with a partially torn tendon in his finger. Anthony's return could be significant for both the Red Sox and fantasy managers down the stretch.

A former horse events rider is preparing to represent Great Britain at the para-canoe world championships, two years after a fall changed her life.
Saffron Cresswell, 25, from Malvern in Worcestershire, fell from her horse in 2024 and suffered a spinal cord injury which left her paralysed.
She is now set to represent her country in a completely different sport less than a year after discovering it, taking up para-canoeing at Leamington Spa Canoe Club on the River Leam.
"It's a beautiful sport to be involved in," she said ahead of the International Canoe Federation Canoe Sprint and Para-Canoe World Championships in Poznan, Poland, which will run from Wednesday to Sunday.
Equestrian was central to Cresswell's life before her accident. She was a full-time event rider, winning three European medals for Great Britain, running a business from home and riding between 12 and 15 horses a day.

WORCESTER, Mass. (AP) — A Massachusetts woman wanted in connection with the death of her police officer husband was found dead near a hospital Monday during an intensive law enforcement search that included drones, boats and tracking dogs, authorities said.
Karen Solomon, an advocate who called for improvements and greater awareness of police mental health problems, had disappeared after Kurt Solomon, who served 31 years with Worcester police, was found dead at their home Tuesday morning. Officials had named Karen Solomon a suspect.
"We believe this case is a tragic murder-suicide that occurred," Worcester Police Chief Paul Saucier said at a news conference Monday.
Two people who worked at Fairlawn Rehabilitation Hospital reported finding human remains, and officers recovered a woman's corpse there, Saucier said.
A final ID was still pending, but authorities said they were confident it was Karen Solomon. A handgun recovered at the scene was not a Worcester police service weapon, and investigators were working to determine who owned it.

Police described her as a 58-year-old White woman with dark brown hair and brown eyes last seen wearing pajama shorts and a tank top and walking toward Westcott Street.

BOSTON — Asked Monday about when he might be able to return to the Red Sox lineup after a three-month absence, rehabbing shortstop Trevor Story suggested a rather aggressive possibility.
Story, who played in his first rehab game for Triple-A Worcester on Sunday and will fly to Syracuse to join the WooSox for their games Tuesday and Wednesday, said he thinks it's "a possibility" he could be in Boston's lineup when the Giants come to town for a three-game series beginning Friday night.
"At least Tuesday and Wednesday I'll be in Syracuse, then we'll see how I feel after that," Story said at Fenway Park, where he worked out before the Red Sox faced Arizona. "Obviously, Thursday's an off day here, so we'll see how it goes.
"I've had my fair share of rehabs and I've been through it, so I feel like I know when I'm good to go. I have that in my back pocket and have that experience to rely on. It's really about getting my game legs back and how I recover the next day, not so much the stuff that's going on in the moment."
Interim manager Chad Tracy didn't dismiss the possibility that Story returns this week but noted the Red Sox were taking things day by day. For now, the goal is to get him to play 7-9 innings in Syracuse over the next two days — and then the parties will go from there.

Boston Red Sox shortstop Trevor Story, who started his rehab ****** ignment with Triple-A Worcester on Sunday, needed just one game to make the somewhat surprising claim that he could be activated as early as Friday against the San Francisco Giants, as shared by MassLive's Chris Cotillo.
If he is, that would be a major mistake…
It's not just me saying it! It's recent history saying it!
Romy Gonzalez, who missed all of spring training after undergoing offseason shoulder surgery, appeared in just six minor league games before being activated off of the injured list. I don't have to tell you how poorly that has gone, as the utility infielder slashed an atrocious .185/.265/.308 (12-for-65) across 19 games split between first base and second base before being optioned to Triple-A on Aug. 4.
Adley Rutschman, who was on the injured list when acquired via trade with the Baltimore Orioles on Aug. 3, was given even less time as he appeared in two games during his rehab ****** ignment before being called up to slash .059/.273/.059 (1-for-17) across five games heading into Monday's contest with the Arizona Diamondbacks, before finally collecting two hits and his first extrabase hit in last night's romp.

Fitting that a fancy feed led to the game-winning points on Cousy Court.
During a frantic final possession, Cole Binienda drove into the lane and whipped a pass to a cutting Matt Halloran with five seconds remaining for the go-ahead layup on Monday night. After Jono Raleigh's half-court heave rimmed out, Halloran ducked his 6-foot-8-inch frame as he was mobbed by his Worcester Partnership teammates in a 55-54 victory over Sullivan, Garrity and Donnelly Insurance.
The victory handed the fifth-seeded Bancroft School team the Kingsway Summer League championship over the No. 1 seed from St. John's at Crompton Park on a muggy night.
"No one was on me and I just went up with it," said Halloran, who transferred to Bancroft after playing at Wachusett last season. "It feels great to win the championship."
"I was trying to drive for the layup and I just threw it (to Halloran)," Binienda said.

After the Boston Red Sox ripped off a 15-game winning streak, Chief Baseball Officer Craig Breslow ended up being a buyer, rather than a seller, at the MLB trade deadline on August 3.
Breslow's team went from the basement of the American League standings at the end of July to the second AL wild-card spot by the deadline. It was a no-brainer which direction he was heading two weeks ago. Breslow's big move at the deadline was acquiring catcher Adley Rutschman from the Baltimore Orioles.
He was on the injured list when he was acquired with left wrist inflammation, but after a couple of rehab ***** ignment games in Triple-A with the Worcester Red Sox, he was activated on August 11 against the Toronto Blue Jays. Since going into the lineup, things haven't gone as planned for Rutschman or the Red Sox.
Boston finished a seven-game road trip against the Blue Jays and Pittsburgh Pirates at 2-5 after an 8-3 loss on Sunday. They dropped three out of four in Toronto and two out of three in Pittsburgh. During that stretch, Rutschman has struggled at the plate.
The former No. 1 overall pick by the Orioles in 2019 is just 1-for-17 with nine strikeouts. Some of the at-bats have produced some bad-looking swings. However, Rutschman isn't going to change much heading to Fenway Park for his first series as a member of the Red Sox.

The Boston Red Sox bullpen suffered another significant loss at the worst possible time.
Boston is placing right-handed reliever Justin Slaten on the injured list with elbow soreness, according to The Boston Globe's Alex Speier. Left-hander Raymond Burgos will be recalled from Triple-A Worcester to fill Slaten's roster spot.
The move comes only three days after the Red Sox placed setup man Garrett Whitlock on the 15-day injured list with right elbow inflammation.
Boston now has lost two of its most trusted right-handed relievers in less than one week, leaving interim manager Chad Tracy with a much different late-inning picture behind closer Aroldis Chapman.

Red Sox Officially Place Masataka Yoshida On Injured List In Latest Lineup Blow originally appeared on NESN. Add NESN as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Boston Red Sox officially will be without Masataka Yoshida after the veteran suffered a hamstring injury against the Pittsburgh Pirates.
Boston is placing Yoshida on the injured list and calling up utility player Mickey Gasper from Triple-A Worcester to take his roster spot, according to The Boston Globe's Alex Speier.
Yoshida suffered a left hamstring strain while running out a double during the third inning of Saturday's 4-0 win at PNC Park. He reached second base but stumbled as he approached the bag and immediately grabbed the back of his left leg.
The 33-year-old was able to walk off the field, but Boston quickly determined that he would require time on the injured list. Yoshida also revealed that his only previous hamstring injury, which occurred while he was playing in ******* an, sidelined him for approximately one month. That does not guarantee an identical recovery timeline, but it creates concern that he could remain unavailable until September.

So many rehabs! As we round the stretch of the 2026 season, the Red Sox will be getting reinforcements from several long-injured players (though in the case of some of these players, it's an open question as to whether they're improvements over the current options). First up is Trevor Story, who is planning on playing today for AAA Worcester. Then comes the big guy: Roman Anthony is slated to play on Tuesday for AA Portland. Then it will be Isiah Kiner-Falefa making his rehab debut on Wednesday alongside Story in AAA. (Alex Speier, Boston Globe)
The rehabs come at an opportune time, as it looks like the Red Sox just lost another bat to injury. Masataka Yoshida left last night's game with a strained left hamstring and is likely headed to the IL. "I think he's going to be down for some time," said Chad Tracy. (Ian Browne, MLB.com)
To be frank, losing Masa isn't much of a blow, as he's barely contributed this season. Losing Sonny Gray, on the other hand, would be a major blow, as he's turned himself into the team's ace in the absence of the injured Garrett Crochet. (Sean McAdam, MassLive)
Jake Bennett hasn't turned himself into an ace like Gray, but he has turned himself into an unexpected key contributor at the back end of the rotation. In the midst of an outstanding season, he has struggled a touch lately, but neither he nor Chad Tracy sounds all that worried at this point. (Sean McAdam, MassLive)
Speaking of aces, the Sox were scheduled to face Paul Skenes today. But Skenes, who has had a shaky season this year, is being pushed back to later this week. The Sox will instead matchup against reliever Lake Bechar in what looks like it's going to be a bullpen game. (Rodney Knuppel, NESN)

Kelsa Zereski remembers her parents and grandparents working with the Lajoie family on the Lori Lajoie Charity Golf Tournament at Worcester Country Club nearly 50 years ago.
"The Lori Lajoie and the cause, Seven Hills Foundation, one way or another have been part of my life since I was a kid," Zereski said.
The 51st Lori Lajoie Charity Golf Tournament will be held at Worcester CC on Monday, Aug. 17. Over the years, the tournament has raised more than $9 million for Seven Hills Foundation, Greater Worcester's largest provider of programs for the developmentally and physically challenged.
Zereski, 55, and her brother, Scott Fuller, 53, both of Boylston, serve as co-chairs of the Lajoie tournament committee this year. Their parents, Mark and Jan Fuller, served as co-chairs separately in the past and Mark Fuller remains on the tournament committee and lines up the sponsors.
"Obviously it's always been important to Jan and I to support Seven Hills," Mark Fuller said, "but the fact that our children are picking up the mantle so to speak, that's certainly encouraging and certainly we're grateful that they are doing it."

TORONTO (AP) — Three-time All-Star catcher Adley Rutschman was activated off the 10-day injured list to make his Red Sox debut against the Blue Jays in Toronto on Tuesday night.
Rutschan was set to catch and bat third against Blue Jays right-hander Dylan Cease. Rutschman, who wore jersey number 31, hasn't played since July 18 because of left wrist inflammation.
To make room for Rutschman on the 40-man roster, the Red Sox designated catcher Jake Rogers for ******* ignment. Boston also transferred infielder Isiah Kiner-Falefa (left forearm) to the 60-day injured list.
Rutschman went 1 for 5 with a double and two walks in two rehab games with Triple-A Worcester last weekend.
The Red Sox traded three of their top prospects to acquire the switch-hitting Rutschman from Baltimore at the trade deadline.

An amateur golfer was left "frozen" and "could not stop shaking" after hitting a hole in one from 411 yards (376 metres) - a one-in-six-million chance, according to one estimate.
Matthew Vigurs, from Droitwich in Worcestershire, narrowly missed out on claiming a Guinness World Record when he sank the shot during a league match at Great Barr Golf Club in Sandwell near Birmingham.
The record sits with Robert Mitera who in 1965 at Miracle Hills Golf Course in Nebraska, USA, hit a hole in one from 447 yards (408 metres).
But despite being 36 yards (33 metres) short, 32-year-old Vigurs said: "I got married last year so obviously that's number one but this is definitely up there as a close second best moment of my life."
England Golf, the national governing body for amateur golf, believes Vigurs' achievement could be a national record, but that is yet to be confirmed.

All but two of the nine teams in Group A remain in contention to reach the knockout stages of the One-Day Cup following a day of unlikely results including defeats for the top three in the section.
Pacesetters Leicestershire missed the chance to advance in their final game of the initial phase, with their fate now out of their hands after losing at Kent, who were helped by a sensational display from Daniel Bell-Drummond. They now join Nottinghamshire, Lancashire and Surrey in the chasing pack on 16 points each.
Middlesex won at eliminated Derbyshire to remain top of Group B and ensure they will advance, with Durham also in a strong position immediately behind second-placed Yorkshire following their home win against Essex, who now cannot progress.
Elsewhere in Group B, Glamorgan damaged Worcestershire's hopes of a knockout-stage place with the final ball of the game at Cardiff, while in Group A second-placed Nottinghamshire narrowly lost at Gloucestershire and third-placed Lancashire lost at second-bottom Warwickshire.
