Albernaz said he wanted to avoid using Adley Rutschman on Sunday, noting the All-Star catcher was experiencing "a little bit of left wrist discomfort."
Orioles relievers haven't allowed an earned run in the last five games and 18 1/3 innings. The only run that scored came yesterday with the automatic runner in the 10th inning. Since June 4, the bullpen has posted a 2.90 ERA (40 earned runs in 124 innings) over 37 games. Only the Yankees (2.18), Astros (2.45) and Tigers (2.67) have a lower 'pen ERA. Andrew Kittredge hasn't allowed an earned run in 10 games (9 1/3 innings) since June 24, and since May 18, he's posted a 1.37 ERA with three earned runs over 19 2/3 innings in 22 appearances.

Should the Orioles trade Taylor Ward? The outfielder's expiring contract and the Orioles' playoff uncertainty put Baltimore in a tough spot this trade season By John Beers | July 14, 2026 9:00 am EDT s the Orioles head into the A second half of the season and toward the August 3rd trade deadline, they have decisions to make on two prime trade candidates. Given the O's perpetual need for starting pitching, LHP Trevor Rogers seems like an ideal extension candidate and should not be traded. Outfielder Taylor Ward represents a much tougher decision.
According to legend, John Henry's prowess as a steel driver was measured in a race against a steam-powered rock drill, *a race that he won only to die in victory with a hammer in hand as his heart gave out from stress.* Various locations, including Big Bend Tunnel in West Virginia, 3! Lewis Tunnel in Virginia, and Coosa Mountain Tunnel in Alabama, have been suggested as the site of the contest.

"When I looked at our team and where the league was heading, looked at the way that we've finished the last couple years and at the unbelievable way we've played in the regular season in the last couple years, the path looked a little bit more challenging to me," Stevens said. "I might be wrong. I'm not going to stand up here and be defensive about that, but the path looked a little bit more challenging, with 70% of our cap and such a high percent of our usage tied into two players [Brown and Jayson Tatum].

Nationals' Cade Cavalli says he feels terrible for yelling at Willson Contreras to 'sit down, boy' 8 In Tuesday night's game between the Nationals and Red Sox, Washington pitcher Cade Cavalli told Boston first baseman Willson Contreras to "sit down, boy" after a strikeout, inciting a bench-clearing scuffle.

I am not openly rooting for the downfall of Elias or this front office. I do not casually call out people to lose their jobs. Although I often don't agree with his approach and think he's unwilling to take enough risks, it's clear to me that Elias earnestly wants to win and that he feels pain when the Orioles fall short of big goals. If there can be a miraculous turnaround this summer, and if the Orioles can go on a magical underdog run into the postseason, that would be one hell of a story. And Elias would be a great character in that narrative - dodging the gallows just long enough to get back to the right side of the ledger.

She and her family continue to worship at St. James' after one-and-a-half vears of serving through Field Education. Anna Pauline "Pauli" Murray (November 20. 1910 - [uly 1, 1985) was an American civil rights activist, women's rights activist, lawyer, and author. Drawn to the ministry, in 1977, Murray became the first black woman to be ordained as an Eiscopal priest among the first group of women to become priests in this church. Born in Baltimore, Maryland, Murray was raised mostly by her maternal grandparents in Durham, North Carolina. At the age of sixteen, she moved to New York to attend Hunter College, graduating with a Bachelor of Arts degree in English in 1933. In 1940, Murray sat in the whites-only section of a Virginia bus with a friend, and they were arrested for violating state segregation laws. This incident, and her subsequent involvement with the socialist Workers' Defense League, led to a career goal as a civil rights lawyer. She enrolled in the law school of Howard University, where she graduated first in her class, but was denied the chance to do post-graduate work at Harvard University because of her gender. She earned a Master's in law at University of California, Berkele and in 1965, she became the first African American to receive a Doctor of Juridical Science degree from Yale Law School. As a lawyer, Murray argued for civil rights and women's rights. National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) Chief Counsel Thurgood Marshall called Murray's 1950 book States' Laws on Race and Color the "bible" of the civil rights movement. Murray served on th 1961 Presidential Commission on the Status of Women and in 1966 was a co-founder of the National Organization for Women. Murray held faculty or administrative positions at the Ghana School of Law, Benedict College, and Brandeis University. In 1973…

No matter who walked up, Riley slowed down. Oakland has become a city of artists, and often people just wanted to talk shop. A skate-store owner had plans for his own caper movie; so did a guy from a sign store. A musician called Big Hungry, who was starting a "digital music salon," thanked Riley for hooking him up with a writing group. In each encounter, Riley, a chill, hangdog figure with mutton chops and a spray of freckles, was soft-spoken and receptive, curious and unhurried, but also a little elusive when necessary, knowing when to drift away. His friend Pete Lee, a photographer and a filmmaker, once recalled the default question that Riley uses to identify friendly semi-strangers he can't remember: "So—what are you working on?"

Headline: ORIOLES NEED TO AVOID LOSSES IN LOS ANGELES Roch Kubatko June 19, 2026 4:00 am 359 Comments - Share The challenge of this West Coast trip for the Orioles just grew more intense. They have to play the Dodgers, who have the best record in baseball at 48-27, after losing twice to the Mariners, being shut out yesterday for the first time this season, and talling six games below .500. This is like Eddie Murphy in "The Golden Child" carrying a glass of water across a booby-trapped obstacle course in a bottomless cavern without spilling a drop.

off. If you look at the vertical line, you see the spectrum of power. Health is in the center. Healthy transactions leave the child feeling neither superior nor inferior to anyone else. That's healthy self-esteem. When we think of trauma in childhood, we mostly think of shaming trans-actions, of words or behaviors that leave the child feeling less than, impotent, and helpless. This disempowering abuse leaves those who experience it in a shame-based position their entire lives unless they do the work of transform-ation. On the other hand, if you elevate your child into a state of superiority, we say you are falsely empowering them. If disempowering actions lead to later issues of shame, false empowerment leads to issues of grandiosity. How can you falsely empower a child? Make her the family hero, the star performer, or confide to her your complaints about your spouse. I ask cli-ents, "What are the nine most harmful words in the English language?" The answer: Honey, you understand me more than your father does. When a parent elevates a child and at the same time uses them, we call that enmeshment.

time to look at the bigger picture. Most people in the United States become parents in their mid or late twenties. The blessed event is followed by eighteen years in which they share a roof with that child. By the time he or she sallies forth into an independent life, Mom and Dad are in their midforties. And they are likely to live for another forty years or more. You do the math. Most of the time we spend as parents is not when kids are dependents in the family home but when they are adults. The huge growth in the average life span has created a demographic trend the world has never seen Page 116 of 272 45% — 30 lessons for living
black and brown births, but the caste sys-tem, throughout our history, has shown that it can mutate to sustain itself when under threat. In addition to immigration restrictions to control the Latino population overall, some Latinos, the white-adjacent middle-caste subgroups already being courted by conservative elites, could conceivably be folded into the white population to shore up dominant caste power, as with the Italians and Irish in previous generations. Failing all else, the caste sys-cem can resort to violence to intimidate and even slaughter those in the middle and subordinated castes, as we have seen in the shootings of Asian women in At- - Caste, Isabel Wilkerson
The Yankees ended up running away with the American League East that year, winning by 10½ games in the end. Reggie, who turned 30 in 1976, still believes things would have been different if he had been with the Orioles on Opening Day. And he is adamant that he would have been quite happy to play the next five years of his career in Baltimore. "During the season, I made them an offer," he said. "One point five million for five years, average salary of $300,000, which would have made me the highest-paid player at the time. Then I wanted them to throw in $30,000 a year over the length of the contract for my mom, and $30,000 for my dad. So the total value would have been $1.8 million over five."
