Holliday, Jackson and O'Hearn homers carry the Baltimore Orioles to a 5-2 win over the Rays
The game at George M. Steinbrenner Field was delayed for 2 hours, 36 minutes before the seventh inning.
Holliday hit his 13th homer of the season on the second pitch of the game from Tampa Bay's Ryan Pepiot (6-8). Jackson opened a three-run third with his first home run of the season, and O'Hearn's shot in the sixth was his 12th of the season. Gunnar Henderson capped Baltimore's outburst in the third inning with a two-run single.
Trevor Rogers (3–1) allowed two runs on five hits over six innings while striking out three as the Orioles snapped a four-game skid. Closer Felix Bautista allowed his second run in his last 17 appearances in the ninth and got out of a bases-loaded jam by striking out Junior Caminero for his 19th save.
Caminero had an RBI single in the third inning and Danny Jansen hit a solo homer, his 11th, in the fourth for the Rays.
Ryan Pepiot (6–8) went six innings for Tampa Bay, giving up five runs on six hits. He struck out eight and walked one.
Baltimore interim manager Tony Mansolino was ejected for the first time in the third inning after outfielder Ramón Laureano was tossed following a strikeout.
Holliday's 373-foot leadoff homer set the tone for Baltimore, which had blown a late lead a night earlier. It was the Orioles' first homer of the three-game series.
The rain delay was the longest for a home game in Rays' history.
The Rays host the White Sox on Monday, with Shane Baz (8–5, 4.17 ERA) set to start.
The Orioles travel to Cleveland, where Tomoyuki Sugano (7–5, 4.44 ERA) takes the mound.

Lakers jersey history No. 2 — Wayne Ellington
Through the 2024-25 season, the Los Angeles Lakers have had a total of 506 players suit up for them, going back to their days in Minneapolis. Some were forgettable, some were serviceable, some were good and a select few were flat-out legendary. As the Lakers approach their 80th season of existence (they were founded back in 1946 as the Detroit Gems in the National Basketball League), LeBron Wire is taking a look at each player who has worn their jersey, whether it has been a purple and gold one or the ones they donned back in the Midwest during their early years. Advertisement Let's take a look at Wayne Ellington, a sharpshooter who had two separate stints with the Lakers. After spending three years at the University of North Carolina, Ellington was the No. 28 pick in the 2009 NBA Draft by the Minnesota Timberwolves. The shooting guard played his first three seasons in Minnesota, and after brief stints with the Memphis Grizzlies, Cleveland Cavaliers and Dallas Mavericks, he came to the Lakers for the 2014-15 season. That season, he started 36 of 65 games and averaged 10.0 points a game while shooting 37% from 3-point range. Ellington bounced around the league in subsequent years before returning to the Purple and Gold in 2021. During the 2021-22 campaign, his last in the NBA, he contributed 6.7 points in 18.8 minutes a game and made 38.9% of his 3-point attempts.

Aaron Judge strikes out twice in return from IL, Yankees shut out by Rangers for fifth straight loss
Aaron Judge returned to the New York Yankees Tuesday from a 10-game stint on the injured list. His presence didn't shift the fortunes of a faltering Yankees team. Judge struck out in his first two at-bats and went 0 for 3 at the plate against a sensational effort from Rangers starter Nathan Eovaldi. Texas broke a scoreless tie in the eighth inning to spoil a combined shutout by Yankees pitchers before closer Devin Williams gave up the only runs of the game. Newly acquired reliever Phil Maton held on in the top of the ninth for a 2-0 Texas win win. The loss for the Yankees is their fifth straight and drops them to 7-11 since the All-Star break. It put them at further risk of falling out of the AL playoff picture at 60-54. And it was a microcosm of the problems that have plagued them as they've posted an 18-29 record since the middle of June. New York's vaunted lineup has taken a step back during the slump. It started before Judge went on the injure list with a flexor strain in his right elbow. The Yankees hoped the two-time MVP could provide a spark amid a losing streak. But Eovaldi was in charge Tuesday night. Eovaldi worked Judge to a 1-2 count in the first inning in Judge's first at-bat since June 25. Then he got Judge swinging on a splitter over the plate that dipped below the zone. Judge's second at-bat brought more of the same. Eovaldi worked a 1-2 count with two fastballs and a sweeping curveball that induced a swing-and-miss for strike two. Judge then swung again at a third-strike sinker that dipped below his knees. Judge grounded out in his third at-bat, and his teammates didn't fare much better as Eovaldi pitched eight shutout innings with six striketouts to lower his season-long ERA to 1.38. This story will be updated.

Wings guard Paige Bueckers says she has a pulled back muscle and will take it 'day to day'
NEW YORK (AP) — Dallas Wings guard Paige Bueckers said Tuesday night she thinks she has a pulled back muscle and will be taking 'day to day.' Bueckers, the No. 1 pick in the draft, left Tuesday night's game against the New York Liberty with 2:37 left in the third quarter and went to the locker room with tightness in her back. She said she stretched the back and received a massage gun treatment before returning to the bench at the start of the fourth and playing in the final period. She finished with 21 points, eight rebounds and four assists in an 85-76 loss. 'I was just dribbling the ball and just felt a tightness come along,' she said of the moment of the strain. 'It's day to day. I'm hoping it won't take me out. Just get some treatment, get some rest. 'I think it's just a pulled muscle. I felt a strain, felt it tighten, so am just getting it worked out." Bueckers is averaging 18.5 points, 3.9 rebounds and 5.5 assists in her rookie season. She leads a struggling Dallas team in points, assists, steals and blocks. ___ AP WNBA:
