Red Sox manager Alex Cora proclaims his team 'not getting better' following 8th loss in 10 games
BOSTON — Red Sox manager Alex Cora has been proclaiming recently that he didn't think his team was far from putting good baseball together following a dismal stretch of games. Those days of optimism appear to be dwindling after Boston's latest setback. The Red Sox lost their 17th one-run game of the season on Tuesday, this time falling 4-3 to the Los Angeles Angels in 10 innings filled with missed opportunities, poor execution defensively and another inconsistent night from the bullpen. It was their eighth loss in 10 games. They are now 9-10-1 in series play, including 4-5-1 at Fenway Park.

Mariners right-hander George Kirby takes line drive to face, exits game
SEATTLE — Seattle Mariners right-hander George Kirby exited Tuesday night's game against the Baltimore Orioles after taking a line drive to the face. With two outs in the fifth inning, Kirby threw a fastball inside to Orioles third baseman Ramón Urías, which he promptly ripped right back up the middle. The baseball made contact with Kirby's face, and he immediately jogged off the field as blood flowed from his mouth. Kirby was promptly attended to by the Mariners training staff. Kirby did not return for the sixth inning, although he had already thrown 95 pitches by the time of his departure. Urías was retired on the play since the ball ricocheted off Kirby's face toward first base, and was fielded by Seattle first baseman Rowdy Tellez. ___ AP MLB:

Air quality alert in effect for Philadelphia region Wednesday as temps heat up. Here's the weather forecast.
Good Wednesday, everyone — outside today, you will likely notice the heat cranking up in the Philadelphia region. Both Wednesday and Thursday will be very warm and humid, with highs in the upper 80s and low 90s, with lows in the mid-60s. Perfect for those who love that summer sizzle. Friday brings a slight cooldown, with highs in the mid-80s and increasing clouds as the day progresses. Saturday, however, turns a bit unsettled — expect a mix of clouds and sun, a drop in temperatures and a chance of showers and thunderstorms. It's a good day to have an indoor backup plan or keep an eye on the radar if you're heading out. Sunday looks like a winner, with less humidity and plenty of sunshine, highs in the low 80s, and a refreshing breeze. CBS News Philadelphia Philadelphia's smoke history While this week's smoke is causing an elevated haze in the sky, it's nothing like what we experienced a couple of years ago. An orange air quality alert will be in effect for most of the Philadelphia region on Wednesday. The code orange alert means that air pollution concentrations within the Delaware Valley will be unhealthy for sensitive groups. CBS News Philadelphia In June 2023, Philadelphia experienced one of its most extreme air quality events in decades, as smoke from Canadian wildfires blanketed the city. The haze was so thick that it reduced visibility to less than a mile and turned the sky an orange-red. On June 8, the Air Quality Index (AQI) hit 425, marking the worst air quality in the city since 1999 and making it the most polluted major city in the world that day. CBS News Philadelphia The smoke, originating from wildfires in Quebec, was carried south, affecting large portions of the East Coast. Philadelphia's air quality was classified as "hazardous," prompting health advisories for residents to stay indoors, especially those with respiratory conditions. The haze even led to the postponement of a Phillies game — the first "smoke out" in the team's 140-year history. Here's your 7-day forecast: CBS News Philadelphia Wednesday: Heating up. High 88. Low 60. Thursday: Heat is on! High 90. Low 64. Friday: Few more clouds. High 88. Low 65. Saturday: P.m. t-storm. High of 81, Low of 66. Sunday: Mostly sunny. High 82, Low 64. Monday: Showers.
